BoaBoa Casino - Pelaajan tilin sulkemispyyntöä ei huomioitu.

Hello,

I wish to make a complaint against Boa Boa Casino.

I initially requested self exclusion on March 24, 2025, citing the reason as problem gambling and excessive spending. I received a response that the casino received my request. My account remained open so I followed up via email on March 27, 2025. Again, no response and my account was not closed.

On July 7, 8, and 10, 2025, I sent multiple emails requesting self exclusion. Again, I received confirmation they received my request but my account remained open.

On September 23, 24, 26, 27, and 29th, and October 2, 3 and 6, 2025, I made email requests and via chat requesting my account be closed due to problem gambling. I filed a complaint with the casino on Sept 27. They finally closed my account on Oct 6, 2025.

The casino did not follow the responsible gambling mandate by continuing to ignore my requests and allowing me to continue to make deposits. I followed the procedures they listed on the website, contacted chat who also directed me to submit the emails, which the casino showed confirmation my requests were received. For months they ignored my requests. It wasn't until I made a complaint with Casinomeister that they closed my account. I feel they should be accountable and return at least half of what I deposited.

Im only able to substitute some of the emails sent, I have more.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience with BoaBoa Casino.

Please allow me to ask you a few questions so I can better understand the situation.

• Have you received any responses from the casino other than automated responses?
• Could you please advise when was the last time the casino allowed you to deposit?
• Would you be able to share the link to the public complaint where the issue was discussed previously between you and the casino?
• Has the casino responded to your refund request already? What did the casino reply? Forward any recent relevant responses you received from the casino regarding the issue to my email at tomas@casino.guru, or post screenshots here.

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,

Tomas

Hello,

In response to your questions:

Yes, the casino would occasionally respond to my requests by requesting a reason for my request, which i had already provided. I will add that they would repeat this question which shows in the email thread. They clearly use this as a stalling tactic. They also responded suggesting a cool off period rather than self exclusion, which at one point I accepted and responded (just to get the account closed), again they didnt close or block my account.

I believe the last deposit made was Oct 5 or 6th.

The previous complaint - im assuming you are referring to Casinomeister? Link: https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/tickets/4194/

I made a complaint with the casino regarding them not closing my account when requested multiple times. I did not request a refund. Should I do that now or go through this complaint process?

I will forward the emails to your address. 

Hello, Casinomeister responded to me advising that the casino has responded although is not forthcoming. With this, im wondering if this complaint should be put on hold as the complaint is still being worked on through Casinomeister?

Thanks for the information shared in the complaint thread and via email.

The complaint doesn't seem to be public. If the casino doesn't cooperate, please share their response or justification for refusing to issue a refund with me to my email at tomas@casino.guru

Looking forward to your reply.

Thank you for your response. Please confirm if you are requesting that I contact the casino directly requesting a refund. I have not done this as of yet.

Thank you very much for providing the necessary information. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Martin, who will be at your service. I wish you the best of luck and hope the problem will be resolved to your satisfaction in the near future.

Dear parties,

We’ve reopened this complaint at the request of DBC1234.

Dear casino representative,

it has come to our attention, that the player's account is still active. As the player has issues with gambling, please close their account as soon as possible. Additionally, would you be able to provide us with their deposit history?

Dear DBC1234,

I am sorry to hear about your issue. To clarify, was your account closed or was it kept open? Please also provide me with your current closure requests at martin.l@casino.guru.

Hello,

I have emailed you the timeline of events, copies of all the emails and deposit history. Let me know ow if you require anything further.

Dear DBC1234,

thank you very much for your detailed response. In the main email, you reference that the casino has told you they would void your balance during closure. Do you have any email proof of this?

We will now wait for the casino's response.

Hi Martin, I had advised I would forfeit my balance without being asked. It has been my experience that the casinos will first ask if you would rather a break than to self exclude, then a few days later will need confirmation before closing the account that you will forfeit the balance (if any). It appears that this is a delay tactic to keep the account open. I was trying to get ahead of them to have my account closed as soon as possible.

Dear all,

Thank you for your patience.

We kindly inform you that we reviewing your case with the relevant department.

Moreover, we would like to assure you that we will notify you promptly once there is an update.

Kind regards,

BoaBoa
