BassBet Casino - Pelaajan tili pysyy vapautettuna pyynnöistä huolimatta.

Despite repeated requests to block my account, it remains unblocked. I lost €720, even though I requested a block due to gambling addiction after the first €180. They don't respond to emails, nor can they activate the chat button. I'm simply unavailable! I've already written four emails and demand my money back!

Trotz mehrmaliger Aufforderung zur Sperre wird mein Konto nicht gesperrt. Ich komme € 720,- verspielen obwohl ich nach den ersten 180€ schon um eine Sperre wegen Spielsucht gebeten habe. Es wird weder auf Emails reagiert noch kann der Button für den Chat aktiviert werden. Einfach nicht erreichbar!!! Ich habe bereits 4 Mails geschrieben und verlange mein Geld zurück!

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing.

Could you please forward me the account closure requests you sent to the casino, along with the casino's responses if you received any at all? My email address is veronika.f@casino.guru.

Have you double-checked that you typed the correct email address to request self-exclusion from this casino?

Have you ever successfully communicated with customer support?

Have you passed the full KYC verification?

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

Thank you for your emails. To ensure I fully understand your situation, could you please confirm the following:

• Was your first request for self-exclusion made on 16 March, when your daughter contacted the casino through your email address?
• Have you received any responses from the casino regarding any of your emails so far?
• Have you ever successfully communicated with the casino's customer support team via live chat?
• Has the casino ever contacted you in response to your request to close your account?
• Have you completed the full KYC verification process, or have you at least been asked to verify your account?

1. Yes, the casino was contacted for the first time on March 16th because my daughter caught me gambling. I was severely addicted to gambling, so luckily she was keeping me under control.
2. So far, the casino hasn't responded to any of the emails. They've only sent advertisements.
3. It is not possible to click the live chat button or to contact the live chat.
4. The casino did not respond to the request for a ban due to gambling addiction, nor did it answer any emails.
5. I was neither asked for verification nor did I complete any verification.

Unfortunately, to date, there has been no blocking and no response from the casino.

1. ja, am 16. 3. wurde das Casino erstmals kontaktiert, weil meine Tochter mich beim Spielen erwischt hat. Ich war schwer spielsüchtig und daher werde ich von ihr zum Glück kontrolliert.
2. es gab bisher keine einzige Antwort vom Casino auf die Emails. Es wurde nur Werbung zugesendet.
3. es ist nicht möglich den Button für den Live Chat anzuklicken bzw. es ist nicht möglich mit dem Live Chat Kontakt aufzunehmen.
4. das Casino hat keine Reaktion auf den Wunsch der Sperre wegen Spielsucht gezeigt, auch wurde kein Email beantwortet.
5. Ich wurde weder zur Verifizierung aufgefordert noch habe ich eine Verifizierung vorgenommen.

Es ist bis heute leider keine Sperre erfolgt- und keine Reaktion vom Casino.

THE CASINO DOES NOT HAVE A VALID LICENSE!!!

DAS CASINO HAT AUCH KEINE GÜLTIGE LIZENZ!!!

Thank you very much, x4wsccrkcd, for providing all the necessary information. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Matej (matej.l@casino.guru) who will be at your assistance. I wish you the best of luck and hope to see your problem being resolved to your satisfaction in the near future.

Hello x4wsccrkcd, nice to meet you!

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

After reading through the provided e-mail evidence, I have noticed a lot of issues that needs to be corrected as soon as possible. Although I am not going to excuse the casino's lack of communication, and I believe they should have investigated and closed the account as soon as possible, I will do my best to get you correctly self-excluded from BassBet Casino.

Firstly, in accordance with the casino's responsible gambling section, please send an e-mail to support@bassbet.com with the following text, and CC my e-mail in it too (matej.l@casino.guru):

Email subject: Self-exclusion

Player’s info:

First name:

Last name:

DOB:

Casino login:

Email address:

"Greetings BassBet Casino,

I’m writing to inform you that I wish to exclude immediately from this casino and from receiving any gambling-related marketing material for lifetime.

The reason for my decision is suffering from gambling addiction.

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."

Hopefully this will speed up the process, while waiting for the casino representatives to reply.

When it comes to the refund, I am afraid none of the money is enforceable, since the deposits happened well before the casino has been informed about the gambling addiction. In your first e-mail you have even acknowledged not reading the Terms & Conditions when signing up, and while a lot of local laws have been cited, none is applicable to this case. As far as the law is concerned, you have willingly signed up with the casino, accepted the Terms and Conditions (which also states you are OK with the possibility of losing money) and most importantly the deposits have happened several days before bringing the gambling addiction to the casino's attention. As for being on the gambling blacklist within Curacao, Kahnawake and Malta licenses, unfortunately Anjouan Gaming Authority is a different body operating in different part of the world, and these lists are not being shared amongst each other.

However, if you can confirm any more deposits made into the account since 19th March, or that you have received an e-mail confirmation in the past that being banned in any of the BassBet's sister casinos will automatically exclude you from every other casino as well, then the only thing we can do here is ensure your account gets closed as soon as possible, and the marketing communication ceases as well.

Lastly, BassBet Casino does have a valid licence, just not for Austria, as it is disclosed on the validation seal page:

I’d like to invite a representative of BassBet Casino to join the conversation and participate in the investigation of this case as well.

Could you possibly provide additional information regarding the issue with not responding to the self-exclusion request, keeping the account open and clarify the situation? Thank you.

I, or rather my daughter, informed the casino of my gambling addiction on March 16, 2025, at 5:59 PM, using my registered email address and all my data.

The day before, €120 was deposited. At that time, the casino had no idea about the gambling addiction.

After declaring my gambling addiction, I was allowed to deposit and gamble another €530. The account hasn't been closed yet!

Ich bzw. meine Tochter hat von meiner registrierten Mailadresse mitsamt all meinen Daten das Casino am 16.3.2025 um 17:59 auf meine Spielsucht aufmerksam gemacht.

am Tag davor wurden 120€ einbezahlt. Da konnte das Casino noch nichts von der Spielsucht wissen.

Nach Bekanntgabe der Spielsucht durfte ich weitere € 530,- einzahlen und verspielen. Das Konto ist bis zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt noch nicht geschlossen!

Thank you for the additional information. Was any of that deposited on 19th March or later? If so, I will do my best to get the refund to you, alongside getting the account permanently closed ASAP.

No, my daughter had my credit card blocked on March 17.

Why are you asking about March 19th?

Nein, meine Tochter hat am 17.3. meine Kreditkarte sperren lassen.

warum fragen Sie nach dem 19. März?

I just lost another €230... THANKS FOR NOTHING... can BassBet please finally block me?

ich konnte gerade weitere 230€ verspielen… DANKE FÜR NICHTS … kann BassBet bitte endlich sperren?

Update: I was able to contact BassBet several times yesterday regarding my desired ban due to gambling addiction and chat with the chat … however, to date, the request for the ban has not been complied with – I have evidence in the form of photos

My account is currently, March 28, 2025, 7:52 a.m., still open.

Update: ich konnte gestern mehrmals BassBet bezüglich meiner erwünschten Sperre wegen Spielsucht erreichen und mit dem Chat chatten … bis heute ist man jedoch der Aufforderung zur Sperre nicht nachgekommen- Beweise habe ich als Fotos

mein Account ist aktuell, 28.3.2025, 7:52 Uhr, noch immer geöffnet.

Dear x4wsccrkcd, have you sent the aforementioned self-exclusion request e-mail as we recommended? I have not received a copy yet. In the meantime, I hope the casino replies ASAP. Thank you.

My Account is still NOT closed today on the 30. March !

Thank you for the confirmation!

Dear BassBet Casino could you please urgently respond and close the account as requested?

My account is still not blocked, but the chat function has been blocked again. Although I was promised a ban, nothing has happened.

How long do you want to continue promoting the casino and providing good reviews?

Bassbet Casino will not block my account, nor will they respond to this request.

DEAR PLAYERS, BE WARNED! NEVER PLAY AT BASSBET!!!!!

Mein Konto ist noch immer nicht gesperrt, jedoch wurde die Chat-Funktion für mich wieder blockiert. Obwohl mir eine Sperre versprochen wurde, ist nichts geschehen.

wie lange wollen Sie das Casino noch bewerben und mit guten Bewertungen versehen?

Das Casino Bassbet wird mein Konto nicht sperren und sie werden auch auf die Aufforderung hier nicht reagieren.

LIEBE SPIELER SEID GEWARNT! SPIELT NIEMALS BEI BASSBET!!!!!

The account has still not been closed!

Das Konto ist noch immer nicht geschlossen worden!

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

We would like to kindly apologize for the delay and confirm that your account has been permanently closed without the possibility of reopening and receiving advertisements.

We assure you that the verification of your request will be completed as a matter of urgency.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

I would like to thank BassBet Casino Team for the account closure and cessation of the advertising communication.

Dear x4wsccrkcd, could you please clarify couple of things for me, so I can see if the issue needs to be investigated further?

After declaring my gambling addiction, I was allowed to deposit and gamble another €530. The account hasn't been closed yet!

No, my daughter had my credit card blocked on March 17.

Casino was informed about your addiction on 16th. When were the additional deposits of the 530€ made, please? At what dates? You have also confirmed your card has been blocked a day after the self-exclusion request, so I am unsure how could you deposit anything.

I just lost another €230... THANKS FOR NOTHING... can BassBet please finally block me?

Was this sum lost from the account balance you still had at the time, or was this some new deposit made while the account was still being opened, please? Thank you.

I have sent you an email with the list.

I was able to deposit €120 after registering on March 15, 2025. The next day, March 16, 2025, my daughter caught me gambling and immediately sent an email to Bassbet from my registered email address with the subject: GAMBLING ADDICTION. You have already received a copy of this email.

I couldn't resist gambling and lost another €530 the following night.

The following day, my daughter had my card and my bank account blocked.

I then opened a new bank account.

Bassbet has since received several emails requesting a ban and help with gambling addiction. You are also familiar with these emails, as they were sent to you in CC.

Bassbet still didn't block my account - after receiving my new account card from my new bank, I was able to gamble another €230 on the night of March 26, 2025.

My account at Bassbet was open until yesterday!

I have not received a response from Bassbet to any of my emails.

Ich habe Ihnen eine Mail mit der Aufstellung zukommen lassen.

Ich konnte 120€ nach der Registrierung einzahlen, dies war am 15.3.2025. am nächsten Tag, 16.3.2025 erwischte mich meine Tochter beim Spielen und schrieb sofort von meiner registrierten Mailadresse eine Email mit dem Betreff: SPIELSUCHT an Bassbet. Diese Email haben Sie bereits als Kopie erhalten.

in weiterer Folge konnte ich dem Spielen nicht widerstehen und verspielte in der darauffolgenden Nacht weitere € 530,-.

meine Tochter ließ am folgenden Tag auch gleich meine Karte sperren und auch mein Bankkonto.

Ich habe daraufhin ein neues Bankkonto eröffnet.

an Bassbet ergingen zwischenzeitlich mehrere Emails bezüglich einer gewünschten Sperre und Hilfe bezüglich Spielsucht. Diese Emails sind Ihnen ebenso bekannt, da sie in cc an Sie gingen.

Bassbet sperrte trotzdem nicht - nach Erhalt meiner neuen Kontokarte bei meiner neuen Bank konnte ich weitere € 230,- in der Nacht am 26.3.2025 verspielen.

mein Konto bei Bassbet war bis einschließlich gestern geöffnet!

Ich habe auf keines meiner Emails eine Reaktion von Bassbet erhalten.

Thank you for the details provided.

Did you register your second account with exactly the same credentials as your first? Or did you have to change any information during the registration (except the bank account, I understand that one was different)?

I did not register a second time.

I have opened a new bank account with a financial institution, but I only have this one customer account with Bassbet.

However, I used the same data, including my email address, at Nomini Casino and Buran Casino.

Ich habe keine zweite Registrierung durchgeführt.

ich habe bei einem Kreditinstitut ein neues Bank-Konto angelegt, bei Bassbet habe ich nur dieses eine Kundenkonto.

Jedoch habe ich bei Nomini Casino und bei Buran Casino dieselben Daten inkl. E-Mail-Adresse verwendet.

Alright. Let's keep other casinos out of this topic, as anything not related to BassBet should be brought up separately in a new complaint.

Do I understand this correctly, that you have opened a new bank account, connected it to your still open account at BassBet, and deposited that way? DId you withdraw anything in the meantime and was those 230€ the last deposit you made before the eventual account closure?

I don't understand what you mean. You can't link a casino account to a bank account. I have a debit card, and I can use it to make deposits. I made the first deposits up to and including March 17 with my debit card before Mastercard blocked it. I was able to make additional deposits of €230 on March 26 with my new debit card as normal, as the casino hadn't complied with my request to block my account due to gambling addiction. And yes, every email I sent repeatedly referred to an urgent block due to a diagnosed gambling addiction!

Ich verstehe nicht was Sie meinen. Man kann keinen Casino-Account mit einem Bankkonto verknüpfen. Ich habe eine Debitkarte und mit dieser kann ich Einzahlungen tätigen. Die ersten Einzahlungen bis einschließlich 17.3. habe ich mit meiner Debitkarte vorgenommen, ehe diese von Seiten Mastercard gesperrt wurde. Mit meiner neuen Debitkarte konnte ich ganz normal am 26.3. weitere Einzahlungen in der Höhe von € 230,- tätigen, da das Casino der Aufforderung der KONTOSPERRE WEGEN SPIELSUCHT nicht nachgekommen ist. Und ja, in jedem meiner gesendeten Email wurde auf eine dringende Sperre aufgrund von einer diagnostizierten Spielsucht mehrfach hingewiesen!

Thank you for clearing it up for me. I have been through the evidence you provided, e-mail messages and this thread once again to ensure I have the details in order, and here is the summary:

Since you have informed the casino about the gambling addiction on 16th March and due to the casinos having internal policies and checks to complete when closing the account, alongside dealing with dozens of messages and other player issues, we have to give them a reasonable period to comply with the request for any account closure or self-exclusion. It is not ideal, but sadly for now that is the industry standard. As the bulk of your deposits is within hours of the request, anything deposited on 16th or 17th of March in not enforceable. This is because in such case anyone could open an account in the casino, deposit money, lose them all within few hours, then claim being addicted to gambling and getting back all the deposits, which is classed as "self-exclusion abuse" or "risk free betting". I am not saying this is your case, just explaining why we can't ask for any refunds from that time period.

However, as the request has not been adhered to within the reasonable time period, we believe BassBet Casino should refund the deposits from 26th March, which is 230€ in total, according to your previous messages and e-mails.

I would like to ask the BassBet Casino Team to let us know if you agree with this solution, and if you will refund the above mentioned amount to the player's account.

The casino offered me €100 as a goodwill gesture via email. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be responding.

Das Casino hat mir per Email € 100,- in Kulanz angeboten. Leider scheinen sie hier nicht zu antworten.

Have you accepted the offer, or are we going for the whole 230€?

I'll go straight to the full €230... because I don't think they'll transfer anything anyway.

Ich gehe gleich auf die vollen € 230,- … denn ich denke, dass sie ohnehin gar nichts überweisen werden.

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

We would kindly request to provide us your bank details requested via email in order to proceed with the payment.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

This was verifiably completed two days ago. You've already received several emails!

Das wurde schon vor zwei Tagen nachweislich erledigt. Sie haben bereits mehrere Emails erhalten!

Dear BassBet Casino Team, can you confirm once the refund request has been processed on your end, please?

I haven't received any money yet. This may take some time.

Ich habe noch kein Geld erhalten. Dies kann noch dauern

As of today, April 14, 2025, 1:00 PM, no money has yet been credited to my account!

Stand heute, 14.4.2025, 13:00 Uhr, ist noch kein Geld auf meinem Konto eingegangen!

I find this email an absolute disgrace!!!

Ich finde dieses Email eine Frechheit sondergleichen!!!

Dear BassBet Casino Team, can you please double-check the marketing communication and the account closure settings, as you have confirmed two weeks ago the player will not receive any more communication from the casino?

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

We are pleased to inform you that your payment has been successfully completed.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

Only 100€ were paid out!

Es wurden lediglich 100€ ausbezahlt!

Dear all

Thank you for your patience.

Kindly be informed that the customer had deposited only 100 euro after the 24 hours period had passed , after self exclusion was requested therefor only 100 euro was returned back.

Best Regards

BassBet Team

I can prove this with my screenshots! I'm now emailing them to BassBet!

The request to block the account and the notification of gambling addiction (even in the subject line) were already sent on March 16, 2025 at 5:59 PM!!!!

After that, you actually allowed deposits totaling over €800. Most notably, on March 26, you allowed €230!

Strangely, you can answer emails within minutes, but you haven't been able to respond to the email about gambling addiction for three weeks? A very questionable approach!

It's clear that BassBet Casino exploited gambling addiction! I also have screenshots of the message in the chat! However, I was only able to chat with them via my daughter's cell phone because the chat was blocked for my IP address!

Ich kann das anhand meiner Screenshots belegen! Ich sende diese jetzt per Email auch an BassBet!

Der Antrag auf Sperre des Kontos sowie die Mitteilung wegen Spielsucht (im Betreff sogar) erging bereits am 16.3.2025 um 17:59!!!!

Sie haben danach eigentlich noch Einzahlungen in der Höhe von über € 800,- zugelassen. Vor allem aber am 26.3. in der Höhe von € 230,-! 

Komischerweise können Sie Emails innerhalb von weniger Minuten beantworten, aber das Email mit Spielsucht konnten Sie 3 Wochen nicht bearbeiten??? Ein sehr fragwürdiges Vorgehen! 

Hier ist eindeutig, dass das Casino BassBet die Spielsucht ausgenutzt hat! Ich habe auch Screenshots von der Mitteilung im Chat! Ich konnte jedoch nur über ein Handy meiner Tochter mit ihnen chatten, da mir der Chat mit meiner IP-Adresse gesperrt wurde! 

A little reminder/rundown:

• I have gone through the original messages once again. Unfortunately I do not speak German, so I have had to use translator for both of the messages provided by the player. The message from 16th March is a refund request that mentions gambling addiction as a reason for the refund, but unless the translation was incomplete, there is no mentioning of the account closure. Both e-mails are just a refund requests. While I agree that the casino should have pre-emptively suspend the account after the mentioning of the gambling addiction, and inquire further, this is sadly not an industry standard as of yet.
• The first proper self-exclusion has been sent to the casino on 26th March at 16:14, and according to their own terms and conditions, they had up to 24 hours to comply. Therefore anything deposited on 26th March is not enforceable.
• The account has been blocked on 2nd April, which is way before the stated deadline, therefore anything deposited within 27/03 16:14 Austrian time until the account closure should be refunded

Dear BassBet Team and x4wsccrkcd, could you please e-mail me the cashier history since 26th March 2025 until the account closure?

That's not true! The casino received the first email on March 16, 2025, at 5:59 PM! The next day, the chat was also contacted. As a result, the live chat was blocked for me.

Why? Because the casino received a ban due to gambling addiction!

Please be honest, why else would a chat suddenly be blocked?

I continually sent emails to the casino for my own protection, and as of April 2, 2025, I received no response from the casino.

Don't get me wrong, but a confirmed gambling addiction, communicated via email or chat, MUST result in an immediate ban. If you have officially reported your gambling addiction to an online casino (e.g., via email or their contact form), but the casino hasn't banned you, this could be a serious violation of player protection laws!

And this isn't the only case involving BassBet. This is their deliberate attempt to collect as much money as possible from the sick player.

In a similar case, the entire amount was repaid!

Das ist so nicht richtig! Die erste Mailnachricht erhielt das Casino am 16.3.2025 um 17:59! Am nächsten Tag wurde auch der Chat kontaktiert. Daraufhin wurde der livechat für mich gesperrt.

warum? Weil das Casino die Aufforderung zur Sperre wegen Spielsucht bekam!

Bitte seien Sie ehrlich, warum sonst sollte ein Chat plötzlich geblockt werden?

Ich habe laufend emails zu meinem eigenen Schutz an das Casino gesendet und bis 2.4.2025 kam keine Reaktion vom Casino.

verstehen Sie mich nicht falsch, aber eine attestierte Spielsucht, mitgeteilt per Email und Per Chat, MUSS eine sofortige Sperre zur Folge haben. Wenn man einem Online-Casino die Spielsucht offiziell mitgeteilt hat (z. B. durch eine E-Mail oder über deren Kontaktformular), das Casino dich aber nicht gesperrt hat, kann das ein ernstzunehmender Verstoß gegen den Spielerschutz sein !!!!

und das ist nicht der einzige Fall von BassBet. Das ist deren vorsätzliches Verhalten, so viel Geld wie möglich vom kranken Spieler zu kassieren.

in einem gleich gelagerten Fall wurde die gesamte Summe zurückgezahlt!

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

Thank you for already being so patient with us! We really appreciate it.

Thank you for the confirmation, BassBet Casino Team, much appreciated.

Dear x4wsccrkcd, it can take up to 3 working days to get the money. Please, let me know once you get them, or if nothing arrives to your account by next Tuesday. Thank you.

I will report.

Ich werde berichten.

As of today, May 20, 2025, 9:45 PM, no payment has been made or credited to my account.

Thank you for letting me know.

Dear BassBet Casino Team, can you please let us know what's the hold up?

Ich habe bis heute, 23.5.2025 um 18:30 Uhr keine Zahlung erhalten.

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

We would like to kindly confirm that your refund has been successfully completed on 15th of April.

Could you please provide us your cashier history to confirm that you still didn't receive the funds?

Thank you for your cooperation!

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

Thank you for the date confirmation, BassBet Casino Team! Much appreciated

Dear x4wsccrkcd, can you please check your account and confirm whether you have received the refund? Thank you.

I received €100 in April, but we're talking about a different amount here. And I can prove it!

Ich habe im April 100€ erhalten, aber wir reden hier von einer anderen Summe. Und das kann ich auch beweisen !

Dear BassBet Casino Team, could you please clarify on the payment? Are you referring to the 100€ sent in April? According to the latest information, player should have been refunded 230€. That leave 130€ pending. Or did we misunderstand each other and you still consider the 100€ sent a done deal? Thank you.

I received €100 in April, but the amount is much higher! I can prove the deposits with screenshots, or rather, I already have.

Ich habe im April 100€ erhalten, jedoch ist der Betrag viel höher! Ich kann die Einzahlungen anhand von Screenshots beweisen bzw. habe ich das schon gemacht.

Dear all,

We would like to inform you that we've sent the final offer to the player, which accepted and sent his payment details in order to proceed with the refund.

We would like to kindly confirm that his payment has been successfully completed.

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

Thanks for keeping me up to date, BassBet Casino Team.

Dear x4wsccrkcd, please let us know once you receive the money, and if you could share the final sum either here (I can privatise the message if needed) or via e-mail at matej.l@casino.guru, so I can adjust the internal notes, that would be much appreciated.

No, I only received a refund of €100 and I'm not happy with that!

Nein, es sind nur 100€ an Rückerstattung eingegangen und damit bin ich nicht zufrieden!

Thank you for the update!

Dear BassBet Casino Team, can you give us an update on the total sum of the refund and the status of the payment? Thank you.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear Matej,

We would like to kindly inform you that the player deposited the sum of 100 EUR after 24 hours since she requested account closure on 26.03.2025 and the refund of it has been successfully completed on 15.04.2025.

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

Dear BassBet Casino Team, can you please confirm reception of the original e-mail from 16th March and why it was not actioned? Thank you.

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

Thank you for your reply.

In order to further investigate your request we would kindly like to ask you to provide us with a screenshot of the first email that you send, as you said on the 16.03 for self exclusion.

Please also attach the ticket ID in order for us to further investigate your case.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Kind Regards,

BassBet Casino Team

Dear x4wsccrkcd, you have mentioned contacting the live chat a day after sending the request. Do you have a screenshot of you trying to communicate with the agent?

EDIT: Also, did you receive any kind of automated confirmation of the casino receiving the message from 16/03? It usually comes few minutes after sending a message, stating a ticket number in the body of the message.

Dear all,

Please be aware that according to our system, no deposits were made from the 17th March until 26th March.

Therefore, there is nothing else to reimburse.

Kindest Regards,

Dear x4wsccrkcd, if you can't provide further evidence, I am afraid there is not much else that can be done. I will try to sum up the whole case, explain some details and leave space for additional questions before closing this complaint.

• The first self-exclusion e-mail has been sent on 16th March, but the casino did not receive it. Could be a technical glitch or a server issue. But since you have not contacted the casino further regarding this issue by sending another e-mail or inquire via live chat, I will have to reject this as insufficient effort from your side to get excluded. We always encourage players to inquire about the state of the account closure more than once, and ideally use at least two communication channels (i.e. e-mail and live chat) to ensure account gets closed. Support team consist of people, and they do get overwhelmed by hundreds of messages on a daily basis, and sometimes something may slip by unintentionally.
• Your next message requesting self-exclusion due to gambling addiction - the one that casino received - has been sent on 26th March. According to their own policy, the account should have been closed within 24 hours, which did not happen. Therefore you are entitled for a refund of any and all deposits made between 27th March until 15th April (when the acc got closed), minus any withdrawals and winnings.
• As per the previous message, the casino even checked the cashier history since your original self-exclusion request (the one they did not receive), and confirmed that between 17th March and 15th April you deposited only 100€ - which have been already refunded. Therefore I believe there is nothing more to request.

And in regards of your last post:

The company NovaForge Ltd. also received a request to ban me from all casinos in this group, but they did not comply!

This is not an industry standard and I personally am not aware of any casino owner who would do that, as holding such database by a private company would be a breach of GDPR laws, especially in regards of the EU citizens. After double-checking BassBet's "Responsible Gambling" page, nothing there indicates that getting self-excluded in Bassbet would exclude you automatically from all the other sites owned by NovaForge Ltd. Unfortunately, we do not live in a perfect world, and unless there is specifically stated that excluding in one casino guarantees exclusion in the sister sites as well (there are few like this), you need to exclude from each casino separately.

The total loss in all NovaForge Ltd. casinos is over €4,000‼️‼️‼️

If you believe you are entitled to a refund from other casinos, please feel free to open individual cases against each casino, and we will try to help.

Is there anything else you feel like needs to be addressed, or would like to ask?

Dear x4wsccrkcd,

We are extending the timer by 7 days. Please, be aware that in case you fail to respond in the given time frame or don’t require any further assistance, we will reject the complaint.

"The first self-exclusion email was sent on March 16, but the casino did not receive it. There may be a technical error or server issue. However, since you did not contact the casino via email or live chat, I advise you that your exclusion efforts were insufficient. We recommend players check the status of their account closure multiple times and ideally use at least two communication channels (email and live chat) to ensure the account is closed. The support team is comprised of employees who are inundated with hundreds of messages daily, and sometimes something may be inadvertently missed."

This cannot be overlooked by employees, and I must add that employees also received this information via chat before the chat button was deactivated. The chat simply stated that this had to be sent via email. After that, the account was not blocked for 14 days. Deliberately!

Furthermore, I can confirm that NOVAFORGE CASINOS have the same support, regardless of which casino they contact. They don't work independently of each other, but rather with each other and with the same staff.

That's why I was able to gamble away so much money again. NovaForge Casinos are the only casinos where I can register; I'm banned everywhere else.

Yesterday evening I was able to register at a NovaForge Casino and I continue to receive advertising from this group.

In my email, I specifically requested a ban from this group of companies – from all casinos, including Anjouan Gaming – so that I can no longer play. But the warnings via email and text message alone are very triggering – and they know that very well.

I find it very sad and inhumane that the issue of gambling addiction is being treated in this way and that institutions like yours actually support the casinos more.

„Die erste E-Mail zum Selbstausschluss wurde am 16. März verschickt, aber das Casino hat sie nicht erhalten. Möglicherweise liegt ein technischer Fehler oder ein Serverproblem vor. Da Sie das Casino jedoch nicht per E-Mail oder Live-Chat kontaktiert haben, weise ich Sie darauf hin, dass Ihre Bemühungen zum Ausschluss unzureichend waren. Wir empfehlen Spielern, den Status der Kontoschließung mehrmals zu erfragen und idealerweise mindestens zwei Kommunikationskanäle (E-Mail und Live-Chat) zu nutzen, um sicherzustellen, dass das Konto geschlossen wird. Das Support-Team besteht aus Mitarbeitern, die täglich mit Hunderten von Nachrichten überhäuft werden, und manchmal kann etwas unbeabsichtigt übersehen werden."

Das kann von Mitarbeitern nicht übersehen werden und ich muss dazusagen, dass die Mitarbeiter dies auch per Chat erhalten haben, bevor der Chatbutton deaktiviert wurde. Im Chat wurde lediglich darauf verwiesen, dass dies per Mail gesendet werden muss. Danach wurde das Konto 14! TAGE lang nicht gesperrt. VORSÄTZLICH!

weiters kann ich belegen, dass die NOVAFORGE CASINOS ein und denselben Support haben, egal welches Casino von ihnen angeschrieben wird. Diese arbeiten nicht unabhängig voneinander sondern miteinander und mit denselben Mitarbeitern.

deshalb war es mir auch möglich wieder so viel Geld zu verspielen. NovaForge Casinos sind die einzigen Casinos in denen ich mich registrieren kann - überall anders bin ich gesperrt.

auch gestern Abend konnte ich mich bei einem NovaForge Casino registrieren und bekomme auch weiterhin Werbung von dieser Gruppe.

Ich habe im Email ausdrücklich um eine Sperre bei dieser Unternehmensgruppe gebeten- in allen Casinos - auch bei Anjouan Gaming - damit ich nicht mehr spielen kann. Aber alleine die Wernung per Mail und SMS triggert einen sehr - und das wissen sie genau.

Ich finde es sehr traurig und menschenverachtend, dass so mit dem Thema Spielsucht umgegangen wird und dann auch noch so Institutionen wie Ihre eigentlich mehr die Casinos unterstützt.

This cannot be overlooked by employees, and I must add that employees also received this information via chat before the chat button was deactivated. The chat simply stated that this had to be sent via email. After that, the account was not blocked for 14 days. Deliberately!

Indeed. The chat has asked you to follow the Responsible gambling conditions stated on the website and send an e-mail, so they have it in writing you would like to close the account due to the gambling addiction. They just followed their own rules, no deliberation can be seen here.

Furthermore, I can confirm that NOVAFORGE CASINOS have the same support, regardless of which casino they contact. They don't work independently of each other, but rather with each other and with the same staff.

Just because they work in the same office, it does not mean everyone knows everything. At Casino Guru, some of us also work in the office, yet everyone has their own cases they deal with, and even I could not tell you what cases my colleagues are dealing with, as I have enough of my own. NovaForge owns many casinos, but those are operated by different companies. Just because they use the same support agents, doesn't mean we can ignore the rules. Their rules state that each casino operates independently and therefore one needs to exclude themselves from each separately. I agree this is tedious and not user-friendly, but such is the industry standard (that we are trying to slowly change towards the players) and we have to comply.

That's why I was able to gamble away so much money again. NovaForge Casinos are the only casinos where I can register; I'm banned everywhere else.

Exactly. You register in a casino - you automatically agree with receiving their marketing materials, unless you manually unsubscribe. However, if you are receiving marketing materials from casinos where you are supposed to be excluded due to the gambling addiction, that would be a problem worth investigating.

Since you have a serious gambling problem, I would strongly recommend installing free app BetBlocker (https://betblocker.org/de/) on your mobile and desktop/laptop computer to keep you safe. Have your daughter to set up a password for you (which will ensure you can't uninstall or turn off the app yourself) and it will automatically prevent you from accessing gambling sites - including NovaForge casinos - and I believe this will be great first step towards the recovery.

Next, I would recommend seeking professional help. If you would like, you can e-mail me your town of residence at matej.l@casino.guru, and I will check our comprehensive database of help centres in your vicinity. They can help you fight the addiction either in person, via phone, or e-mails - depends on your preference. Help is available, and you don't have to suffer on your own.

I find it very sad and inhumane that the issue of gambling addiction is being treated in this way and that institutions like yours actually support the casinos more.

I am truly sorry you feel that way. If you check the complaints regarding self-exclusion published on our site, you will see we are actually very stern with the casinos and unless proven otherwise, we always take the player's side.

But as much as we require casinos to adhere to the responsible gambling rules and our Fair Gambling Codex, we also place some responsibility on the players themselves, to keep things fair. We have had too many cases where players knowingly avoid checks and create multiple accounts, use anonymous casinos with no KYC checks and no need to fill out credentials upon registration, to be able to play. After losing money, they claim gambling addiction to get their deposits back. I am not saying this is your case, but because of cases like these, we have to make sure players themselves show sufficient effort in self-excluding themselves.

Since e-mails can get delayed or lost, sending one message (or not clearly stating having gambling issues), is not considered a sufficient effort by us. You could have inquired or sent another message (even multiple messages) to the support, regarding the state of your self-exclusion processing, if you did not receive the response within 48 hours. As much as we have a pro-player stance, we also need to be fair to the both sides of the dispute, which hopefully you can see and accept after the explanation.

Summary: the casino has received the player's self-exclusion request on 26th March, closed the account permanently on 15th April and already has refunded the player 100€ that were deposited in that time, there is nothing more to be done. Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be rejected. Thank you for your understanding, I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into any issues with this or any other casino in the future.
