Limits of a casino

Good evening. At ice casino, I realized 4 days ago that there is no longer a "responsible gambling" link where I usually set limits because otherwise I can't control myself. I told the casino that I was going to close my account because I no longer had the limits so I could stop. They replied that there were. And I sent them proof that there weren't any. I warned them that I would close the account if I couldn't impose limits and self-exclude as I always do. They stopped replying and I ended up playing an absurd amount of more than 1400 /1500 eur today alone. How can you help me? I'll send you a screenshot of the casino app where there is no longer an option to set limits. And also the conversations with the casino. Thanks

here are the 2 items that show that 'responsible gaming' no longer exists in the app

Hello,

this is a serious matter and I'd like to thank you for posting your concerns. Even though I do not appreciate the casino responses you described, I think the most important thing is to set the limits alternatively or close your account if the limits are no longer an option. So, may I know whether your account has been closed due to gambling addiction, please?

If you struggle with that, please ask the support how to best close your account due to the aforementioned gambling issues and follow the instructions to the letter, please. I am truly sorry to say that, but only the casino employees can close our account. We are merely a forum.

Surely let me know how the situation has progressed, and if you face delay with the closure, peraps considering a complaint might help. Are you familiar with our Complaint Center?

I'll wait for an update.

Good morning, I've already filed a complaint on your website. The casino hasn't closed my account. I've been waiting since Friday and I'm still playing. I've already spent 1800 euros.

The account is still open and I can't close it or set limits. They say they'll reply in several days after I've told them that if I can't impose limits then they'll close my account

Here are some of the Mail I sent and the reply

Hello there.

I went through your complaint to get familiar with the case.

I am sorry that this casino doesn't have the option to set your limits, which is surely very helpful in any case.

Unfortunately, though, you didn't state the reason for closing your account, as because of gambling issue. Only in these cases, when a player clearly writes this kind of reason, the casino must do everything to close the account right away, and if they are not able to do so, they need to pay all the deposits back. Which happened in many cases.

Let's not go ahead though, and wait for your complaint to move forward and reach its resolution.

If it helps you in any way, please know that as part of our Global Self-Exclusion Initiative, we've partnered with BetBlocker, a UK-registered charity providing a free service to support people worldwide. You can find more information about our initiative here (https://casino.guru/global-self-exclusion-initiative) and about BetBlocker here (https://betblocker.org/).

BetBlocker, which supports seven languages, is quick and easy to install on multiple devices, taking just 2 minutes. Once installed, it blocks access to over 84,230 gambling websites and runs quietly in the background. The service can be used anonymously and helps individuals manage their access to gambling safely and appropriately, whether that means complete restriction or limiting access during vulnerable periods. 

Additionally, BetBlocker includes a list of 824 gambling information sites. These sites primarily inform users about and advertise gambling services. You can choose to include these sites in your restriction by ticking a box. However, if you have an ongoing complaint against a gambling operator, do not check this box, as it will prevent you from accessing the Casino.Guru website as well.

Good morning, I wrote a clear reason why, if there were no limits imposed, I wouldn't play, because it would certainly be because I have an addiction! If I ask a casino to close my account for that reason, they have to close it immediately because it was my request. Thank you for nothing.

I see it's not going to do any good.

I can see that your complaint was rejected because, unfortunately, we couldn't be of more help.

Petronela explained there: "As I mentioned in my previous response, since you never formally requested the closure of your account, there is unfortunately no basis for a refund of your lost funds. Once again, I strongly encourage you to contact the casino directly and inform them of your gambling issue to prevent further losses in the future."

We are really sorry about the whole situation and believe that it would be for the best to state clearly the reason for closure of the account, so the casino can act accordingly, and any future misunderstandings can be avoided.
