In January of this year, I chose to self-exclude from this casino due to issues related to gambling.
The self-exclusion was carried out and certified by the CEG regulatory body and had a validity of 5 years.
Despite this, I was able to open a new gaming account using the exact same personal data I used for the self-excluded account.
I have asked the casino to proceed with a refund, but they responded in an embarrassing manner, pretending not to understand my request.

Could you kindly specify which of your data was the same when you registered at Cosmobet Casino for the second time? Only your e-mail address and the username were different?

Same personal data (name, surname, address, telephone number) and same identity document uploaded.
Only the email address has changed.
I don't remember if the username is the same but it is irrelevant for self-exclusion purposes.
Did you receive my email confirming my self-exclusion activated at this casino from January 2024 until January 2029?
