Case summary

1 week ago

The player from Germany had requested account closure due to gambling addiction on October 8, 2024, but her request was ignored, leading to further deposits. She sought clarification on her right to a refund of the deposited money after the closure request. The Complaints Team confirmed that her account had been successfully closed after she submitted her request through the correct channel. However, it was noted that her initial self-exclusion request had been sent to an incorrect email address, preventing the casino from processing it and considering a refund of her deposits. The complaint was ultimately rejected due to the player's lack of response to follow-up inquiries.

Hello, I am addicted to gambling.

I requested the closure of my account on October 8, 2024. Unfortunately, this was ignored. After that, I deposited again…🤷‍♀️ Do I have the right to have the deposited money refunded after requesting account closure?

Best regards, Diana

Hello Disey68,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely. Could you please advise what reason you have given when requesting to block your account?

Please, let me explain you what the difference between closing the account and self-exclusion is:

Some casinos use lots of tools for responsible gambling and I would not mention them here. What players can do if they’re unhappy in the casino: Close the account or self-exclude themselves, those are the two basic choices.

 

Closing an account is simple and has almost no impact - the player can reopen account anytime, and casino has no obligation to the player.

 

On the other hand, self-exclusion does. If a player successfully makes a self-exclusion, the casino agrees not to open this account or if yes only under particular circumstances (after cooling off period and this cannot be done for players who are addicted/with gambling problem).

 

In the case of self-exclusion, if casino failed in this, player may ask for a refund.

 

Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Nick

Hello, I wrote in the email that I want my account to be closed immediately and irrevocably due to gambling addiction. It is still open!

Hello Disey68,

The first email you forwarded from 14.10.2024 was sent to an address not listed on the casino’s website (KYC@emirbet.com), so it unfortunately cannot be considered an official request.

Could you please forward the initial request in a single email to nikolas.b@casino.guru?

Looking forward to your response.

Best regards,

Nick

Hello Disey68,

I hope this message finds you well. I’m pleased to hear that your account has been successfully closed.

Regarding your inquiry about the refund of deposits, it appears that your initial self-exclusion request was sent to an incorrect email address. Unfortunately, because the casino did not receive your self-exclusion request through the proper channel, they were unable to process it at that time. As a result, without knowledge of your situation, the casino was not in a position to consider a refund of your deposits.

However, as you’ve noted, the casino promptly blocked your account once they received your request through the correct channel.

Please let me know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

Warm regards,

Nick
