The player from Germany requested a one-year self-exclusion at Gomblingo due to gambling addiction, but the account was only closed for 30 days and later reopened. As a result, the player has lost at least 800 euros since resuming play.
Hello, I requested a self-exclusion for one year at Gomblingo and mentioned that I am addicted to gambling!
However, the account was only closed for 30 days before being reopened.
Now I've played again and lost at least 800 euros.

Hello,
I have sent you the evidence in the attachment.
My player account was still open yesterday and I played and still lost money.
This afternoon my player account was closed.
Thanks for your email.
Please note that we believe that if you inform the casino about a gambling addiction, the casino should protect you from further play permanently, not just for a year. We'll try assisting you in asking the casino to close your account permanently and for the return of your lost funds. thanks for your understanding.
Thank you very much, Mombas77, for providing the necessary information. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Kubo (jakub.m@casino.guru) 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 Mombas77,
I'm Kubo, and I will be taking care of your complaint from now on. If there have been any new updates regarding this case since the last information provided, please let me know.
I would like to invite the Gomblingo Casino's representatives to join this discussion and provide any available information to help resolve this issue.
Dear Gomblingo Casino,
Could you please provide a comprehensive explanation regarding this case, including the reasons why the self-exclusion was not applied to the player's account despite their explicit request and acknowledgment of a gambling problem?
Thank you in advance for your response!
Best Regards,
Kubo
Dear Kubo,
We have reviewed the customer's account and they were excluded according to our standard procedure within the designated timeframe outlined in our terms and conditions.

Hello,
it was only closed for 30 days and not for 1 year!
Not legal!!!
Because of this I lost a lot of money!!!!!
Dear Gomblingo Casino,
In reference to Paragraph 3.22.3 of your Terms & Conditions, which states:
3.22.3. The customer acknowledges, agrees and accepts that the procedure for Self-Exclusion with the Brand is as follows: If the customer wants to be Self-Excluded from gomblingo.com, he/she needs to contact us on the following email address: customercare@gomblingo.com
Customer’s email needs to include the following information:
(a) a clear request that states that customer wishes to be fully Self-Excluded (not partially restricted) on a voluntary basis;
(b) the duration of the period of the Self-Exclusion, with a minimum of twenty-four hours.
The player fully complied with these criteria, yet their request was not processed appropriately. Moreover, your practice of imposing a fixed 30-day exclusion period, regardless of the player’s stated preference, raises questions about the purpose of requiring players to specify the duration of their Self-Exclusion.
Why require a duration if it is disregarded? This inconsistency undermines both player trust and the clarity of your stated policies.
I urge you to address this issue promptly and clarify your position on this matter.
Thank you.
Dear Kubo,
The period regarding the player's request was set accordingly as per the player's wish.
Regards,
Gomblingo Casino
Dear Gomblingo Casino,
Could you please clarify what "wish" you are referring to? The player explicitly requested a self-exclusion period of one year, but their account was only closed for 30 days. As a result, the player is eligible for a refund of the deposits made after their account was improperly reopened.
Could you kindly share your position on this matter?
Looking forward to your response.
We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.
