Case summary

The player from Germany requested an immediate and permanent ban from Winrolla Casino on September 5, 2026, due to gambling addiction, but the casino employee failed to act on his request. He continued to receive bonus emails, and he filed a complaint with the Anjouan licensing authority regarding the lack of action. We found that he had used live chat instead of the casino’s required email process for self-exclusion, and the casino confirmed that his account was already closed and marketing messages had been disabled. As a result, the complaint was closed with no further action possible on our side. Later, the complaint has been reopened as the player - now properly self-excluded - has been receiving promotional messages and marketinf offers. Once the casino confirmed this issue has been fixed, player also confirmed no longer receiving the spam.

On September 5, 2026, I wrote to Michael, an employee of Winrolla Casino, via live chat, stating that I wanted to be banned immediately due to gambling addiction. And preferably permanently.


The employee did not comply with my request and did not respond to the email. cs@winrolla.com referred.


I have repeatedly told him that he must act IMMEDIATELY and without delay.


He did nothing after that either.



My account was not blocked, I received more emails with a bonus, and I was unable to protect myself in this case.


I have already filed a complaint with the Anjouan licensing authority about Winrolla Casino and complained about the employee and the casino.


I also hope that CasinoGuru will impose a penalty on the ranking, because preventive and acute player protection is paramount here, and NOTHING has been done!


I have saved all evidence, such as screenshots of the live chat with the employee and the emails with the bonus offers.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I am truly sorry about your negative experience with Winrolla Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Have you tried contacting the casino via the email provided by the live chat support?
  • Could you please confirm whether you currently still have access to your account?
  • Could you please share your original self-exclusion request? Send emails or chat transcripts to my email at attila.g@casino.guru, or post screenshots here.

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Attila

There is no original application!

I requested in the live chat that I be permanently banned with immediate effect. There's no need to send a separate email to support for that!

What kind of player protection is this, or rather, what good is player protection to me if action isn't taken immediately?


Yes, I still have access to my account and receive bonus emails and offers.


That's why I saved the chat history and made it available to you here.

Thank you for your response. I have read the casino's responsible gaming policy and this is what I have found:


Self-exclusion request: You can contact the Support Service Team via e-mail at cs@winrolla.com, and we will close your account as soon as practicable. It is the player's responsibility to notify our Website of any other accounts they may hold and to commit not to open any additional accounts. While our Website will make reasonable efforts to prevent the creation of new accounts, it remains the player's sole responsibility to ensure that no further accounts are opened. Our Website cannot be held responsible for any potential losses incurred on other accounts.


According to the casino's policy, self-exclusion requests should be submitted to the above-mentioned email address.

Furthermore, please understand that without sufficient evidence showing that you explicitly informed the casino about gambling-related problems and that the casino failed to act accordingly, we would not be able to request a refund of your deposits.

I understand how disappointing it must be to feel that the casino did not adequately protect you. However, based on the evidence currently available, we can only see that you requested an immediate account closure. We cannot see that gambling problems or gambling addiction were explicitly mentioned to the casino.


Therefore 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 Winrolla 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 cs@winrolla.com (you can include me in the copy at attila.g@casino.guru) 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,

Attila

The screenshots from the chats with Winrolla Casino clearly show that I not only requested immediate account closure, but also stated the reason for it, which is active gambling addiction.

Since the employee repeatedly dismissed me and referred me to an email address to which I should send my request, I did not accept this. Just because a casino imposes its own guidelines doesn't mean these guidelines are legally sound and comply with the Anjouan license. If a player actively indicates in the live chat that they have problems gambling, the casino must act immediately. This wasn't my first complaint of this kind. My complaint against Godz Casino was also rejected by you, CasinoGuru (Attila). There, too, I wanted to be banned due to gambling addiction, and I'm NOT looking for a refund, but a permanent ban. The live chat must also take action when I state that I suffer from gambling addiction.

Feel free to reject this complaint as well; you should just be clear about whom you are protecting here, and that is certainly not the player.

Hello B5xElite, nice to meet you!

My name is Matej, and I will be assisting you with this case. I will do my best to help resolve the matter as soon as possible.

Thank you for providing the requested information. At this stage, I have everything I need from you. You do not need to send any additional information or documents unless I contact you and specifically ask for them. For now, please wait while we investigate the case.

I would now like to invite a representative of Winrolla Casino to join this conversation and participate in the investigation.

Could the casino representative please provide more details as of what seems to be the issue with the self-exclusion, and submit all relevant supporting evidence?

Any sensitive information or internal system records may be sent directly to me by email at matej.l@casino.guru.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Dear Matej,


Thank you for your cooperation.


We take responsible gambling and self-exclusion requests very seriously. Please note that player's account is already closed.


For clarity regarding our process, all self-exclusion and permanent account closure requests must be submitted directly via email to ensure proper account security and verification. As outlined in our Terms & Conditions:


"Self-exclusion request: You can contact the Support Service Team via e-mail at cs@winrolla.com, and we will close your account as soon as practicable. It is the player's responsibility to notify our Website of any other accounts they may hold and to commit not to open any additional accounts. While our Website will make reasonable efforts to prevent the creation of new accounts, it remains the player's sole responsibility to ensure that no further accounts are opened. Our Website cannot be held responsible for any potential losses incurred on other accounts."


Our live chat support agents direct players to cs@winrolla.com so that our dedicated compliance team can process self-exclusions securely, permanently, and across all network systems in accordance with our terms.


Since the account has already been closed, no further activity can take place on it.


Best regards,

Winrolla Casino Team.

Dear Winrolla Casino, thank you very much for looking into this issue for us, and for the confirmation of the account closure. Much appreciated. :)


Dear B5xElite, as per the casino representative's statement above, the correct procedure must be followed, for successfull self-exclusion. The details have been outlined above, as well as being available publicly on the casino's Responsible gambling page. In line with the screenshots provided by yourself, you have applied for self-exclusion via live chat, and refused to follow agent's instructions to apply for self-exclusion via e-mail.

In the future, I strongly recommend reading Responsible gambling page for exact steps to follow for faster self-exclusion, or following instructions provided by the live chat agents, as many casinos do not offer self-exclusion via live chat.

Since the account has been now closed indefinitely and all marketing communication towards yourself has been disabled, there is nothing else I can mediate on your behalf.

Before closing this complaint, I would strongly recommend installing free app BetBlocker (https://betblocker.org/) onto your computer and mobile device, to keep you safe from online gambling sites while browsing the internet. It's free, and for maximum protection it is recommended to have a family member or a friend to set up the password in your stead. Also, I would advise to block all the mobile numbers and e-mail addresses that are sending you promotional materials.

Please remember that you are welcome to contact us again if you run into any problems with this or any other casino in the future. Whether it is a question, a concern or a new issue that needs to be looked into, our team is here and ready to support you.

We’ve reopened this complaint at the request of B5xElite. We have been informed that the player is still receiving marketing materials and bonus offers.


Dear Winrolla Casino, could you please check this and confirm once the marketing communication towards the player has been completely disabled? Thank you.

Thank you for the confirmation, dear Winrolla Casino.


Dear B5xElite, I will swap the timer your way. Please, let me know within next couple of days if the marketing has stopped, and whether there is anything else you would like to discuss or ask. Thank you.

I still have one question. Didn't the casino confirm beforehand that marketing and bonus offers had been deactivated? It seems like every casino can get away with anything here without consequences, and it wasn't just one offer but several, especially if an account was permanently blocked without the possibility of reopening it.

Dear B5xElite, I understand it looks like the casino is getting away with something that should not be happening in the first place. I'll do my best to explain the situation from our standpoint, hopefully bringing some light into the situation.

Casino Guru is not a law firm or governmental body. We cannot force casinos into doing or not doing things. All we can do is mediate the complaint. The current issue is that you have received promotional materials after the casino promised to stop it. If you we re able to use this offer and lose more money, I would do my best to get the deposits returned to you. Since your account has stayed closed and it was only the promotions that were not stopped, all I can do is to reopen the complaint and ask the caisno to fix the issue. As per the last message from Winrolla Casino, this should be fixed now.

All that is left to do was for me to make a note on our system to keep monitoring the situation (this could be a genuine human error and will not repeat again or it can be a start of a pattern) and get a confirmation from yourself that you are no longer receiving any marketing offers. Since I can't assume the bad intent behind one mistake, it would be unfair to punish the casino for something they promptly fixed (stopping the spam in this case). However, we do keep internal notes on previous issues and if we see a repetition of certain issues, we can act and have couple of options how to deal with said problem.

Hopefully this explains our position. Please let me know if you have receied any marketing messages since 06/10 and if you have ore questions, do not hesitate to ask. Thank you.

Okay, thanks, then I have nothing more to add. However, I find it quite unethical that when a player's account is blocked for gambling addiction, they still receive bonus and marketing offers. That's not ethical, but oh well.

Dear B5xElite, I agree that receiving marketing messages after being self-excluded is not a good sign, which is the reason we will monitor this situation. Since you have confirmed the messaging has stopped and the account has been kept closed, I will now close the complaint thread as there is nothing more to mediate.

Once again, I would strongly recommend installing free app BetBlocker (https://betblocker.org/) onto your computer and mobile device, to keep you safe from online gambling sites while browsing the internet. It's free, and for maximum protection it is recommended to have a family member or a friend to set up the password in your stead. Also, I would advise to block all the mobile numbers and e-mail addresses that are/were sending you promotional materials.

Thank you for your time and cooperation.

Best regards,

Matej
