Luckster Casino - Player's was able to deposit and play despite being self-excluded.

Despite being signed up to GameStop, this casino let me open an account with all my details matching and I deposited £1330 within 24hrs. As I am signed up to GameStop I would like a refund because I should not have been accepted.

Dear Dancer2424,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with Luckster Casino and I understand your concern. In the past, we have handled GAMSTOP-related cases, but we have received guidance suggesting that it is best for players to directly contact GAMSTOP: https://www.gamstop.co.uk/contact-us. Regrettably, we are not privy to the specific procedures and methods GAMSTOP employs to verify refund eligibility among registered users. While we have our own self-exclusion procedures, GAMSTOP operates independently and employs its own set of criteria, which we are not acquainted with. Consequently, it is beyond our ability to assess such cases.

If there are any further developments regarding your case in the future, please don't hesitate to contact me at veronika.l@casino.guru, and I will update this thread accordingly. Once again, I wish we could offer more assistance.

Kindly inform me of your preferred course of action.

Best regards

Veronika

this is very stressful for me as I’ve banned myself on 2019 as a problem gambler with a serious addiction.

Please contact GAMSTOP, not the casino. The link to their customer support can be found here: https://www.gamstop.co.uk/contact-us To get in touch with the GAMSTOP team, you have the following options: fill in a form with your query, contact them via email, chat with them, or call them from 10 am to 8 pm.

As mentioned before, GAMSTOP operates independently and has its own procedures for handling complaints related to failed self-exclusion.

Due to the aforementioned reasons, this complaint will now be rejected. Thank you for your understanding, I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you run into any issues with this or any other casino in the future.
