Extreme Spins Casino - general discussion (page 3)

I agree that this casino's methods are far from convincing. When you say you have just started with a casino, perhaps it would be safer to play under the ADM license. Since you're in Italy, playing under the national license ensures that any unfair practices will be addressed by the national gambling regulator.

Casinos with local regulators' licenses find it harder to play dirty. The rest of the casinos always bear a risk. The same goes for transactions through the national banks. It is all much easier within the ADM.

This is an open thread and I wanted to express my opinion because I understand that it may help other players with the same problem.

It's clear that the ideal situation would be to never encounter unlicensed casinos and to play under the legal jurisdiction of our country, but basically what you've said is similar to this: try to stay away from thieves. When a scam, fraud, or theft occurs, we mustn't forget that the person responsible is the one who commits it, and the victim is the one who suffers it.

I am registered on the Spanish General Self-Exclusion Register to prevent any casino from allowing me to gamble, either in person or online, because I am a problem gambler. However, I received advertisements from these casinos and they allowed me to play. Because I am a problem gambler, I placed a bet. Is this my problem? Yes, my problem is that I am addicted to gambling. Am I solely responsible? No, there should be restrictions in place to identify individuals who have self-excluded due to problem gambling, an illness recognized by the World Health Organization.

Okay, I was merely pointing out two things:

First: The context of my post was different because it was not for you. Thats all. 🙏

Secondly, to help players, it's important to remember that staying a victim, as you put it, won't help. Your example shows that again. Prevention is what changes the outcome. So, players from any country would be much safer if they tended to verify casino license and safetiness before they decided to deposit.

Banks, payment providers, or anyone else are not responsible for deposits or unpaid winnings. I understand that addicted players are very likely to play on such sites, as they are usually blocked from using locally licensed casinos. Yes, it is a paradox because local exclusion only puts those players in the grey market. However, can you honestly tell me whether you checked this before you deposited at this specific casino?

As a vulnerable player, please seek professional help in the first place; if the urge makes you play in casinos with fake licenses, it needs to consulted and that's a completely different perspective.

I'm sorry to see you play in such a casino.

Yes, you're right, what needs to be done is to make sure the casino has a real license and everything is in order, but in the real world, that doesn't happen often.

In fact, if this forum is full of messages and complaints, it's precisely because situations where verification isn't done are very common. I didn't check if these casinos (Extreme Spins, Maximalbet, etc.) were licensed, but I didn't either when I played at Sportium, BWin, Winamax, or similar sites.

Of course I have a problem, I've admitted it myself and I'm trying to take steps to solve it (therapy, self-banning...), but it's hard to resist the temptation that keeps popping up in my email with attractive bonuses and promotions because I'm still just starting out. I wish there were an international document I could sign that would prevent any casino in the world from letting me bet a single cent, but there isn't.

I totally agree with you and you have my full sympathy.

It's like a former drinker or smoker who you smoke in their face or invite to a one-time drink; the blame lies primarily with the person forcing your hand.

I send you my warmest wishes for success.

Thank you very much for your bravery and honesty.

Yes and you also very well described the systematic failure of the partial regulations. I truly feel for every player caught up in this offshore business, because I agree that comparing a regular player in an offshore casino to, let's say, a struggling player is not accurate. I get the nature of the problem lies in the fact that the urge is irresistible; thus, unless there is a complex net of safeguards applied to every operator, vulnerable players are never very safe. Not sure whether it helps at this point, but I'll try anyway, are perhpas familiar with the Global Self-Exclusion Initiative? My colleague Simon has been trying for so many years to develop a global solution in the form of a tool:

Maybe you'll find it somehow helpful.

In any case, you have my respect, and to me, you definitely sound like a person who can overcome the problem!

Hello everyone, update on my situation at Maximalbet:

The support team on this site, whom I sincerely thank for what they have done, have not received any feedback from the managers of the casino in question and have therefore classified my complaint as "unresolved".

I was unlucky, but to try to avoid running into other casinos like this, I started by using artificial intelligence to identify others from the same management that I will never play at, and I invite you to do the same:

Extremespins (also known as Extremespins11)

Superseven Casino

Winneraza

Slots7 Casino

Goldenax Casino

Winstler

Gxmble

Slottio

JokaBet

Nine Casino

Volna Casino

Seven Casino (shares the exact same sportsbook and structure)

Palm Casino

Gamblezen

BigWins Casino

PariPesa (operates on identical templates in some regions)

MyStake (uses a very similar payment structure and affiliate flows)

Rolletto

Fresh Casino / Sol Casino (they are part of a very similar parallel network)

1000spin (and variants like 1000spin1)

Extremespins (also known as Extremespins11)

Winstler

Seven Casino

Gxmble

Palm Casino

Superseven Casino

Winneraza

Slots7 Casino

Goldenax Casino

Slottio

JokaBet

Gamblezen

BigWins Casino

Nine Casino (shared infrastructure)

Volna Casino

Rolletto

PariPesa

Fresh Casino / Sol Casino

I'm very sorry that your complaint ended up being marked as unresolved. I was hoping for a better outcome as well.

Unfortunately, when a casino stops communicating with us, there is very little we can do to move the complaint forward. We always try our best to mediate between both parties, but the process depends on the casino's willingness to cooperate.

I sincerely hope you'll have a much better experience with other casinos in the future and that you won't find yourself in a similar situation again.

I wish you all the best going forward.
