Case summary

The player from Germany had submitted a self-exclusion request due to gambling problems, yet his account had remained active, allowing two deposits. After requesting a refund, the casino had closed his account but did not respond to his follow-up after he completed additional verification, leaving him frustrated with the handling of his self-exclusion. The Complaints Team intervened and communicated with the casino, which confirmed that the deposits made after the self-exclusion request would be refunded. The refund was processed via cryptocurrency after the player provided the necessary wallet details. The complaint was resolved as the player confirmed receipt of the funds.

I would like to file a complaint.


On May 5, 2026, I submitted a request via email to self-exclude due to gambling problems.


At first, the casino offered me a bonus for this, but I insisted on my self-exclusion, after which the casino had me confirm the self-exclusion several times. In the end, I was told that the request had been forwarded to the relevant department (see Chats.pdf)


On May 13, my account was still not closed, and I was able to make two deposits (€45), see Deposits.pdf.


I then requested a refund, as my account should have been blocked long ago. The casino immediately closed my account and forwarded the refund request. I then successfully completed another KYC verification (see RefundRequest.pdf). However, after two weeks, I have not received any further response.


It’s unbelievable how the casino handles self-exclusion requests. This has nothing to do with player protection.


I have attached all relevant emails.

Hello Maximov95,


I am sorry to hear about your troubles. I am Martin and I will be taking care of your complaint from now on. As the first order of business, I would like to invite the Viu-viu Casino representative to enter the discussion.


Dear casino representative,


could you please check the case and explain the matter to us? At this point, this seems like a clear case to us. The player had expressed his wish to be excluded, but instead was offered a bonus and a VIP program invitation. Please let us know whether you are willing to process the refund of the two deposits made on 13th of May.


In case there is any additional information you believe to be relevant, please do let me know here or at martin.l@casino.guru. Thank you in advance for providing us with your view of the issue.
