I would like to know if casino guru thinks it's correct for a casino to refuse to close a players account?

If so why does it not assist players in getting casinos to do this unless they say they have a gambling problem. If a player wants there account shut, surely it's there perogative and if a casino is refusing then casino guru should help. I don't understand why they need a gambling issue for you to help get that done. It's wrong for them to refuse and I think wrong that you don't help players in doing this

Hi. From what I can see, this also seems to be connected to the complaint you had against this casino, which was closed around a week ago.

I think Veronika explained the situation there very well, so I don’t think there’s much point in me repeating the same explanation in different words.

The important distinction here is the reason for closing the account. Personally, I think that if a player simply asks for their account to be closed because they no longer want to play there, don’t like the casino, or for any other ordinary reason, it would be reasonable for the casino to respect that request.

However, as Veronika explained, this is different from self-exclusion due to a gambling problem. If there is no gambling-related reason involved, we cannot really force the casino to close the account, and the exact conditions under which they allow ordinary account closures may depend on their own policies.

Of course, if you simply don’t want to play at this casino anymore and there is no gambling problem involved, the practical option is also just to stop using the account, even if the casino doesn’t close it immediately.

So I’d mainly keep the distinction between a regular account closure request and a responsible gambling/self-exclusion request in mind.
