Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: €675

Vegas Nova Casino
Safety Index 6.6 Fresh casino

Case summary

The player from the Netherlands had repeatedly requested self-exclusion due to gambling addiction but faced obstacles, including receiving a promotional bonus instead of the requested help. Despite sending multiple emails and making a direct request to his VIP manager, his account remained active, which led him to deposit and lose €675. He sought assistance in achieving permanent self-exclusion and recovering his funds. The complaint was taken over by a dedicated resolver who contacted the casino for clarification on the issue. The case was ultimately marked as resolved after the player confirmed satisfaction with the outcome.

Hello,


I'm a gambling addict. I have asked this casino multiple times to self-exclude me due to gambling addiction. First in an email on March 27th, 2026. I was told to contact my VIP manager regarding the matter. I did. I contacted 'Eric Smith' at Vegas Nova through an email, asking top be self-excluded permanently due to gambling addiction. He told me he understood, but gave me a €200 cash gift to keep me active. Of course, I'm addicted, so I accepted.


It wasn't a cash gift, it was a bonus with like a 35x rollover. I lost it. On April 6th I once again contacted my VIP manager (as I was told by support to do that through him!) to have my account self-excluded. It is now April 23rd and today I succumbed to the pressure, also because my VIP manager at VegasNova called me today even though I have turned off in my profile that I want phone calls. I deposited €675 and lost. I want that back and I want to be permanently self-excluded due to gambling addiction.


Please tell me where to send the proof of emails I sent asking for self-exclusion. I managed to upload 5 screenshots here but that's the max.


I sent three mails asking for self-exclusion: the first one was in March and I got a lousy bonus. The second was ignored.


I sent a third to support, and they told me it'd be sent to the right department, but obviously, nothing happened.


Please help me make these vultures do the right thing.

Hello Attila,


I have now been self-excluded by the casino, but it was too late.

I made a deposit yesterday, twice, totaling €675.

I did pass KYC verification, if I remember correctly.


Currently in the process of forwarding the communication with the casino to your email.


Thanks,

Dear gotscammed,

It is a pleasure to e-meet you. My name is Kubo, and I will be managing your complaint from this point forward.

If there have been any updates or new developments since your last message, please feel free to share them with me at your convenience.

As part of our standard procedure, I would like to invite a representative from Vegas Nova Casino to join this conversation. Their involvement will help ensure that we achieve a smoother and more efficient resolution to your case.


Dear Vegas Nova Casino,

Could you please provide a comprehensive explanation of this case? Specifically, I would like to understand why the player's account remained open despite several self-exclusion requests and explicit indications of a gambling problem. Additionally, I would appreciate clarification on why the player was offered a bonus instead of the necessary support in line with your Responsible Gaming policy.

Your detailed response will be crucial in ensuring a fair, responsible, and transparent resolution to this matter.


Thank you in advance for your cooperation and timely response.


Best regards,

Kubo

Dear Kubo,


Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.


First and foremost, we would like to express that we take responsible gaming obligations extremely seriously, and the experience described by the player does not reflect the standards or values we aim to uphold as an operator.


After conducting an internal review of the case, we identified that the handling of the player’s responsible gaming requests fell below our internal expectations and procedures. This appears to have been the result of an individual mishandling the situation rather than a reflection of our company-wide policies and commitment toward player protection and wellbeing.


We would also like to clarify that the staff member involved on the matter is no longer working with the company following the outcome of our internal assessment into this matter.


At Vegas Nova, customer health, safety, and responsible gaming remain matters of the highest importance. We recognize the seriousness of self-exclusion requests, particularly where gambling-related harm has been explicitly communicated, and we are currently reviewing additional safeguards internally to further strengthen our escalation and monitoring processes.


In the interest of resolving this matter fairly and respectfully, management would like to communicate directly with the player in private to discuss a potential arrangement and resolution. We will reach out to the player directly via email so that we may continue this conversation confidentially and work toward an amicable outcome.


We remain fully cooperative throughout this process and available should any further clarification be required.


Kind regards,


VegasNova Management
