Case summary

The player from India had requested a permanent ban from Shock Casino due to gambling addiction, which was initially enforced but later reversed, allowing him to log in and play. He had lost $211 and was seeking a refund, as he believed this violated responsible gambling policies. His account was blocked after he reported that he had been allowed to deposit despite the exclusion. After providing proof of his gambling issues, the complaint was resolved through communication with the casino representative, and the player confirmed his satisfaction with the outcome.

Hi sir , due to my severe gambling addiction i requested shock casino to permanently ban my account immediately. And then they permanently banned my account. Later on 18th September they allowed me to login , deposit and play even they mentioned that my permanent ban cannot be reversed. As a result I lost 211$ of funds in the casino. This is a clear breach of responsible gambling policy so I asked them to take responsibility of my losses and refund my money. They misrepresented the fact and they denied my refund. I am attaching their email which explicitly mentioned that my permanent ban can't be reversed.


I urge casino guru to help me to resolve the issue with them.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with Shock.com.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

  • Could you please advise whether your account has been blocked or if it is still accessible to you?
  • Have you tried contacting support after you learned your self-exclusion request wasn't granted?
  • Could you please share your initial self-exclusion requests with me? Please share the information to my email at [email protected]
  • Could you please advise when was the last time the casino allowed you to deposit?
  • What did the casino reply to your refund request?

I would recommend that you send another request, but this time, include me in the copy of your email.

When applying for self-exclusion, clearly state the reason for deactivating your account and specify the period. Additionally, the email subject should be marked and easily recognizable, as the casino support receives many requests per day. If it is marked visibly, you will stand a better chance of having your request granted as soon as possible.

Example:

Email subject: Self-exclusion:

Player’s info:

First name:

Last name:

Date of birth:

Casino login:

Email address:

"Greetings Shock Casino Support,

I’m writing to inform you that I wish to be immediately excluded from this casino and from receiving any gambling-related marketing material permanently.

The reason for my decision is that I am suffering from gambling problems.

I acknowledge that I will not be allowed to rescind my self-exclusion during this period and that the self-exclusion cannot be lifted before the end of the agreed period."

Please send another email to [email protected] (you can include me in the copy at [email protected]) and keep me informed about any further developments.

In the meantime, check other resources and information in our responsible gambling guide found here: https://casino.guru/responsible-gambling-guide

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Tomas
