REJECTED

Case summary

8 months ago

The player from New Zealand requested self-exclusion from a sister casino. This casino promised a deposit refund, but it has not been processed yet. The complaint has been closed as “Waiting for Regulator Decision” since casinos from this group refuse to cooperate and comment on any complaints due to strict GDPR regulations. We reopened the complaint, reached out to the player, and requested the Authority's decision on the matter. Unfortunately, the player stopped responding.

Hello Lin,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your negative experience. Do I understand correctly that the deposit refund is in the amount of NZ$70 (dispute value)? Have you requested self-exclusion directly from this casino?

If there is any other relevant communication between you and the casino, please forward it to kristina.s@casino.guru, or alternatively, post it here.

I hope, we will help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Kristina

Thank you for your reply, Lin. Could you please forward me the self-exclusion request that you sent to the sister casino? Also, have you registered with the same personal details in both casinos?

I’m afraid we've reached a stage where I’m not able to help you anymore with this case. Unfortunately, casinos from this group refuse to cooperate and comment on any complaints due to strict GDPR regulations.

Therefore, we recommend that players contact the Licensing Authority directly and use this complaint as a reference. You can file an official complaint to the Malta Gaming Authority. 

Here is the link: https://www.mga.org.mt/support/online-gaming-support/

I wish we could be of more help, sadly, there’s not much we can do for you in this matter. Please let us know if you file an official complaint so we can proceed with this complaint accordingly. Thank you for your understanding.

Thank you very much, Lin, for your reply. I will close this complaint as "Waiting for Regulator Decision" and ask you kindly to let me know about any developments. My email address is kristina.s@casino.guru and I will be waiting for an update patiently. I wish you the best of luck and apologize that we were not able to help you more with this case.

Dear Lin,

We hope this message finds you well. We wanted to follow up on your case, which was marked as "Waiting for Regulator" on our website some time ago. We were wondering if there have been any updates or resolutions since our last conversation.

If your case has been resolved by the Licensing Authority, we kindly request you to forward us their official statement at kristina.s@casino.guru. On the other hand, if the ruling was in favor of the casino, it would still be incredibly helpful for us to know. We understand that it has been a while, but updating your complaint will allow us to either issue black points to the casino (if the ruling was in your favor) or warn other players and users about cases where the Authority supports the operator.

We truly appreciate your cooperation, and your response would be of great assistance to us. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Kristina

Regrettably, we have not received any communication from the player. Despite acknowledging that our last interaction occurred some time ago, we aimed to appropriately revise the complaint's status and classification based on the elapsed time. Regrettably, without the player's input, this becomes impossible, leading us to close the case as "rejected." 

The player is welcome to reach out in the future, should they wish to reopen this complaint. We can appropriately reclassify it upon submission of substantiating evidence of the Licensing Authority's verdict. Until then, we appreciate your understanding.
