Dear Bssam,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m very sorry to hear about your negative experience. First, I’d like to explain to you what the difference is between closing the account and self-exclusion:

Closing an account is simple and has almost no impact - the player can reopen the account anytime, and the casino has no obligation to the player. 

On the other hand, self-exclusion does. If a player successfully makes a self-exclusion the casino agrees not to open this account or if yes only under particular circumstances (after the cooling off period and this cannot be done for players who are addicted/with gambling problems).

Could you please specify the reason for closing your account? Are you experiencing stress related to gambling, or finding that thoughts of gambling are becoming frequent? Please forward me the account closure requests that you sent to the casino. My email address is katarina.d@casino.guru.

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Katarina

Additional information from the player:


Ladies and Gentlemen

I hereby submit a formal complaint against Playzilla Casino.

I permanently closed my Playzilla player account on October 20, 2025 (self-exclusion). Despite my repeated requests to stop receiving promotional offers or other communications, my account was reactivated without my consent.

In addition, I was given a bonus which tempted me to make further deposits, leading to further financial losses.

In my opinion, this action constitutes a serious violation of player protection and my self-exclusion. Playzilla has not respected my decision and has taken no measures to protect me from further harm.

Therefore, I demand:

A full refund of all deposits made after the unlawful reactivation of my account.

The immediate and permanent closure of my account without the possibility of reactivation.

The immediate cessation of all advertising and marketing communication (email, SMS, etc.).

I have attached screenshots as evidence.

Should a satisfactory solution not be found, I reserve the right to refer the case to the relevant supervisory authorities.

Best regards

Dear Bssam,

I will be taking over your reopened complaint, as Katarina is no longer working in our Complaint Resolution Center.

Thank you for providing the additional information. However, in order for us to assess the case properly, we will need supporting evidence showing that the account closure request was specifically related to a gambling problem/self-exclusion, rather than a standard account closure request.

As previously explained by Katarina, there is an important difference between a regular account closure and a self-exclusion due to gambling-related concerns. A standard account closure can usually be reversed and does not create the same obligations for the casino as a responsible gambling self-exclusion does.

Could you therefore please forward any communication, screenshots, emails, or chat transcripts where:

  • you mentioned gambling addiction, gambling problems, loss of control, or responsible gambling concerns,
  • you explicitly requested a self-exclusion,
  • or the casino acknowledged your request as a self-exclusion rather than a regular account closure?

Once we receive and review this information, we will be able to assess the situation further.

Thank you very much in advance for your cooperation.
