Case summary

The player from Spain requested self-exclusion from the casino on June 10, 2026, due to gambling addiction, but her account remained open and she continued to receive advertising. She had deposited 710 euros and had 500 euros pending for withdrawal. We contacted the casino, which later confirmed that the account had been closed and that the case was being reviewed, then it agreed to refund 1,450 EUR for deposits made between June 11 and July 20, 2026. After the player confirmed her bank details, the casino processed the refund on August 21, 2026, and the complaint was marked as resolved.

I sent an email to the casino requesting self-exclusion on June 10, 2026, and since then they haven't closed the account and they continue to send me advertising.

Since then I have deposited 710 euros and have 500 euros in withdrawal.


The text I sent: I am writing to inform you that I wish to be immediately excluded from this casino and from receiving any advertising material related to gambling for a minimum period of life.

The reason that preceded my decision is gambling addiction.

I acknowledge that I will not be allowed to revoke my self-exclusion during this period and that the self-exclusion cannot be lifted before the agreed period ends.

They contacted me to confirm my decision. I confirmed it, and yet the account remains open.


Please, I would like your help.

Good morning,

  • If I still have access to the account.
  • I just forwarded the email regarding communication with the casino.
  • I was able to make deposits until yesterday.
  • I contacted the chat because they wouldn't close my account and they haven't given me any other option.

I have sent an email to tomas@casino.guru Captures of deposits since 10/6/26 have increased to 1510

Please, I need your help to self-exclude and have my account closed.

Good morning,

I don't know if they've seen the complaint or not. This weekend I received a VIP email from the casino and I see that I still have access to the account. Would it be advisable to write to the licensing agent? I feel very unprotected.

Good afternoon, today I checked and the account was still open.

Desperate, I opened the chat to see if they would pay attention to me, but now it seems I no longer have access. I've copied the conversation with the casino in case it's useful to you, because they haven't said anything about refunding my deposits.

Good morning Igor. Since the casino isn't responding, do you think it's appropriate for me to send an email to the Regulatory Agent?

It's unbelievable. You need more time to take responsibility. When I sent the email, you replied and I confirmed my decision. And you kept sending me promotions to keep playing. Unbelievable!
