Complaint against 1xBet – Failure to Enforce Responsible Gambling Deposit Limit

I would like to submit a complaint against 1xBet regarding its failure to enforce my responsible gambling deposit limit.

On 14 June at 13:43, I activated a 100 KES deposit limit through the Responsible Betting section of my account. According to 1xBet's Responsible Gambling Policy (Section 2.3), players can set deposit limits to restrict the amount they are able to deposit.

Despite the active deposit limit, I was still able to make deposits exceeding 100 KES. This demonstrates that the responsible gambling tool did not function as intended.

I repeatedly contacted 1xBet customer support to report that my deposit limit was not working. However, I never received a clear or meaningful explanation. Instead of properly investigating my complaint, the support agents repeatedly ended the chat without resolving the issue. Despite my repeated requests for assistance, no effective action was taken to enforce my active deposit limit.

I believe this is a serious failure of the responsible gambling measures that the casino claims to provide. If the deposit limit had been properly enforced, I would not have been able to continue depositing after the limit was activated.

Therefore, I respectfully request a full refund of all deposits made after 14 June at 13:43, when my 100 KES deposit limit was activated. These deposits should never have been accepted because the active limit should have prevented them.

I can provide screenshots of the active deposit limit, my deposit history, and my conversations with customer support as evidence. I kindly ask Casino Guru to investigate this matter and require 1xBet to explain why my active deposit limit was not enforced and to refund all deposits accepted after the limit was activated.

Important notice:

Casino Guru will never ask for payments or access to your accounts to complete KYC. If someone claims to be from Casino Guru and does that, do not share any information.

We only contact players through this official complaint thread or via @casino.guru e-mail addresses. Always check the sender’s domain and verify your complaint resolver’s e-mail address by clicking on their avatar visible inside the official complaint thread.

If anything seems suspicious, contact us directly.

Stay safe.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to clarify your situation.

• Have you received any confirmation that your deposit limits were successfully activated?
• Did you set the same deposit limit for your daily, weekly, and monthly deposits?
• How long after setting the deposit limits did you make your deposits at this casino?
• Have you contacted customer support to ask how the deposit limits work and why the limits were not applied correctly?
• Please forward me all relevant evidence you have that could help with the investigation of your case at veronika.f@casino.guru.

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards

Veronika

Hello Haye,

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 1xBet Casino representative to enter the discussion.

Dear casino representative,

could you please check the case and explain the matter to us? Why weren't the deposit limits working correctly? In case you believe otherwise, please provide us with any applicable evidence or internal records.

Alternatively, are you willing to refund the player's deposits?

Thank you in advance for providing us with your view of the issue.

Hello,

Thank you for providing the requested information.

We have accepted your case for review and forwarded the details to the responsible department for investigation.

At the moment, your account is being checked. Please allow the responsible team some time to complete the review.

As soon as we receive an update or the results of the investigation, we will inform you immediately.

We kindly ask for your patience while the review is in progress.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear casino representative,

thank you for your response, we will be awaiting the results of your review.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Your request has been accepted and is currently under review by the responsible department.

At the moment, the investigation is still in progress, and we kindly ask you to wait for the official response. As soon as the review is completed or we receive any updates regarding your case, we will inform you immediately in this complaint.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation while the review is ongoing.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear Casino Representative,

Thank you once again for your update.

Please note that we are not expecting an immediate response if your review is still ongoing. The current response deadline is simply intended to monitor the status of the matter.

Please feel free to respond once your review has been finalized. Alternatively, if there is a valid reason why you require additional time to finalize your position, then we would appreciate it if you could let us know before the current response deadline expires.

Hello,

Thank you for your understanding.

We need some more time, as we are waiting for a reply from a responsible team regarding this case.

Highly appreciate your time and cooperation.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear casino representative,

Thank you for the update and letting us know that the matter is still being reviewed. That said, as the investigation has already been ongoing for some time, could you please provide us with a timeframe within which we can expect the casino’s findings?

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Dear Martin and 1xBet Representative,

Thank you for the update.

I appreciate that my case is being reviewed. However, I prefer that all communication regarding my complaint is conducted by email so that there is a complete written record of our correspondence.

If you have any questions or require any additional information, please send them to me by email, and I will respond promptly.

I kindly ask 1xBet to continue the investigation and provide the outcome in writing by email.

Dear Casino Representative,

thank you for your response.

Before asking the player to participate in a telephone call, could you please explain why such a call is necessary and what specifically the responsible team intends to verify or resolve? This complaint concerns the technical enforcement of a deposit limit, and there does not currently appear to be any identity or account-ownership dispute requiring telephone verification.

Considering the responsible-gambling nature of the case, we believe the investigation should remain transparent and properly documented. Please therefore provide your findings in writing, including the configured deposit-limit value, currency, activation time, subsequent changes, and relevant transaction records.

Until the purpose and necessity of the call have been clarified, we would not advise the player to proceed with it.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

We understand your preference for communicating by email. However, we kindly ask you to follow the instructions provided by our Security Department.

The requested procedure has been established by the Security Department as part of the review of your case. Unfortunately, we are not authorized to modify or bypass these instructions, nor can we replace the requested verification method with an alternative.

To allow the investigation to proceed as quickly as possible, we kindly ask you to follow the instructions exactly as provided by the Security Department. Once the required steps have been completed, your case will continue to be reviewed.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear Casino Representative,

thank you for your response.

While we appreciate your clarification, this does not explain what the telephone procedure is intended to verify or why it is necessary for investigating the alleged failure of the deposit-limit tool. The player’s identity and ownership of the account do not presently appear to be disputed. If they do, please give us more exact information regarding this - you can contact me at martin.l@casino.guru

Given the responsible-gambling nature of the complaint, we cannot advise the player to participate in an undocumented telephone procedure without a clear explanation of its purpose. The player has offered to answer all relevant questions in writing, providing both transparency and a complete record.

Please clarify whether the casino is refusing to investigate or provide its findings unless the player accepts the call. Without this information, we may have to assess the complaint based on the evidence currently available.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

As you have already contacted the regulator regarding this matter, your case is currently being handled directly by the responsible team in order to resolve the issue as efficiently as possible.

For this reason, you have been asked to continue communication via email. Our specialists have already contacted you there and provided further instructions.

We kindly ask you to continue corresponding with the responsible team through the email thread so that your case can be reviewed and resolved as quickly as possible.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Hello Martin,

I would like to clarify the casino’s latest statement.

The casino claims that their specialists have already contacted me by email and provided further instructions. However, this is not correct.

The only emails I have received are automatic replies stating that my case is still being processed and that I should await a response from the relevant department. I have still not received any substantive reply to my complaint, any explanation as to why my deposit limit was not applied, or any instructions on how the matter will be handled going forward.

I have also received an email asking me to call their team. I replied that I prefer all communication regarding my complaint to take place in writing via email, so that there is a complete record. Despite this, I still have not received any substantive response to my questions.

In addition, the casino has still not answered the questions you previously raised. They have not explained why a phone call would be necessary, what they intend to verify during the call, or whether they intend to refrain from investigating the matter and setting out their conclusions if I do not take part in the call.

Furthermore, they have also not addressed the substance of my complaint. They have not explained why my active deposit limit was not applied or why they continued to accept deposits after the limit had been activated.

Dear Casino Representative,

Thank you for your response.

Since the player should now continue communicating with the responsible team by email, could you please specifically confirm that participation in a telephone call is no longer required for the investigation to proceed?

The player states he has received only automated acknowledgements and a request to call your team, but no substantive instructions or findings. Could you please clarify what specific instructions were allegedly provided and give us a concrete timeframe within which the player can expect a written response?

Most importantly, we are still awaiting an explanation of whether the 100 KES deposit limit was successfully activated and whether it should have prevented the disputed deposits.

Dear Haye,

thank you for your cooperation so far. Please forward the relevant email correspondence, including the automatic replies and telephone request, to martin.l@casino.guru.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.

We are checking the information and will get back to you as soon as possible.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear casino representative,

thank you for your response, we will be awaiting the results of your review. Are you able to provide us with an approximate timeframe, in which you may be able to issue a response?

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

As this matter is already being handled through the regulator, we kindly ask you to await further communication either from the regulator or from our colleagues via email.

As soon as there are any updates regarding your case, you will be informed through the appropriate communication channel.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear Casino Representative,

thank you for your message, we will be awaiting further clarifications.

In particular, to move the case forward, could you please provide the account’s limit records, specifically:

1. whether a 100 KES deposit limit was successfully saved and activated on 14 June,
2. whether a different limit was activated,
3. why there were substantial limit increases scheduled for 15 June,
4. The amount of player’s deposits, withdrawals and resulting net loss after the relevant limit became effective.

These records are controlled by the casino and are necessary to determine whether the responsible-gambling tool failed. If the casino is unwilling to provide them because the matter is before the regulator, please confirm this explicitly, as we may then have to assess the complaint as unresolved.

Dear Haye,

the transaction history appears broadly consistent with the complaint amount of 741,925 KES, while the 74,925 KES stated in your email appears to be a typographical error. Please confirm the correct amount and clarify whether it represents total deposits or your net loss after deducting all withdrawals. Please also confirm whether you requested the limit increases scheduled for 15 June.

Dear Martin

Thank you for your continued assistance and for requesting the relevant records from 1xBet.

I would like to confirm that the correct amount is 741,925 KES. The figure of 74,925 KES mentioned previously was simply a typographical error.

Regarding the scheduled limit increase on 15 June, I initially requested a higher limit. However, before that increase became effective, I changed my deposit limit back to 100 KES. Therefore, the active deposit limit should have been 100 KES, and any deposits above that amount should have been prevented.

I would also like to clarify that 1xBet charged a fee on my deposits. For every 5,000 KES I deposited, only 4,750 KES was credited to my casino balance because 1xBet deducted 250 KES from each deposit.

I am also concerned that 1xBet still does not appear to be cooperating fully with this investigation. They have not answered your key questions or provided the account limit records that only they control. Instead, they have repeatedly avoided addressing the central issue of why my active deposit limit was not enforced.

This case concerns responsible gambling, and deposit limits are one of the most important consumer protection tools available. If an active deposit limit can be ignored or fail without explanation, it defeats the entire purpose of responsible gambling measures.

If 1xBet continues to withhold the requested records or refuses to explain why the 100 KES deposit limit was not enforced, I respectfully ask Casino Guru to assess this complaint based on the evidence already available and draw the appropriate conclusions.

Thank you again for your time and support.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

We have taken note of the information you provided and are currently reviewing it together with the responsible department.

Please allow us some time to complete this review. We are carefully checking all the details related to your case, including the information raised in this complaint.

As soon as the review is completed and we receive feedback from the responsible team, we will return with a detailed response and provide an update through the official communication channels.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear casino representative,

thank you for confirming that the investigation is ongoing, we are eagerly awaiting its results.

Nevertheless, as the complaint has already been pending for some time, we kindly ask you to give us at least an approximate timeframe, in which your detailed findings may be shared.

In case the investigation will take longer than 2 more weeks, I believe I will be forced to temporarily close the case, until the records are available.

Dear Haye, Dear Martin,

Thank you for your messages.

As the player declined to communicate by phone, our specialists provided an email address for further communication, in accordance with the player's stated preference. Additionally, our team also sent a message to the player via that email channel.

We would therefore like to kindly ask the player to confirm the following:

-Have you been contacted by our responsible team via email?

-Have you received the information and instructions that were sent to you?

-If so, could you please confirm this here so that both the moderation team and ourselves can ensure we are all referring to the same correspondence?

This confirmation will help clarify the current status of the communication and allow the review to proceed more efficiently.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Best regards,

1xBet Team

Dear casino representative,

thank you for the swift response and your continued cooperation.

Dear Haye,

thank you for your patience. Please address the casino's questions when possible. Additionally, feel free to send any correspondence to my email martin.l@casino.guru.

Dear Martin, 1XBet

I would like to clarify that I have not received any concrete communication from 1xBet’s responsible team with information or instructions on how the matter should be handled.

The only emails I have received are automated responses stating that my case is being reviewed and that I should wait for the outcome.

I have also not received any other information explaining what I am expected to do. I was previously asked to contact them by phone, but I have preferred written communication to ensure that everything is properly documented.

I therefore wish to confirm that I have not received the information or instructions that 1xBet is now referring to.

Thank you for your continued assistance.

Dear Haye,

thank you for your continued cooperation. In the meantime, please refrain from sharing sensitive information to the address you have mentioned.

Dear casino representative,

the player has received an email from a gmail address, from somebody claiming to be a casino representative. Could you please confirm whether this is genuine? Alternatively, please post the email address from which the player will be contacted in the thread - I will afterwards set it as sensitive so only the parties involved will see it.
