The player from Italy claims that the casino has unfairly confiscated his winnings after he declared himself a compulsive gambler, closing his account and only refunding his deposits. He requests the return of at least 50% of his total deposits, amounting to around 5000 euros, or he will consider legal action.

This casino has unfairly taken a lot of money from me because I once declared that I was a compulsive gambler. I opened many accounts with them using different email addresses, but when I won, they canceled my winnings, closed my account immediately, and only refunded my deposit. However, when I lost money, they simply closed the account without refunding me anything at all.

I kindly request the return of at least 50% of the deposited amount, which is around 5000 euros, or I will be forced to contact my attorney.

Dear schieralorenzo09,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about your problem with Megapari Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to clarify your situation.

Could you please specify if any of your accounts were fully verified?

When you created new accounts with different email addresses, did you submit the same personal information, including your name, surname, address, date of birth, and phone number?

When exactly did you request self-exclusion from this casino for the first time?

I hope we will be able to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards

Veronika

Hi, yes many of my accounts have been verified, and yes I have used the same information in each account except the email which has always been different. The first self-exclusion was a year ago

Yes but the problem is that you only refund when I win, cancelling my winnings, but when I lose you don't refund me anything at all, it doesn't seem right to me given that the way you cancel the winnings you should also cancel the losing games

In addition to the fact that I also specified to you that for the gambling debts that I incurred by playing with your site there was a suicide attempt and you as a response simply closed the chat and did not respond to me even to the hundreds of emails that I sent to all your block, security and support addresses, I ask you for a refund of my deposits in these accounts created after the first request for self-exclusion, for a value of over 5000 euros or otherwise I will have to proceed with reporting the fact

Dear schieralorenzo09,

Thank you for your patience as we continue our internal discussions with the casino representative. To move forward, I’d need to clarify a few details with you:

  • Could you please specify the exact number of accounts you created with Megapari Casino that were fully verified, along with the exact date each account was created?

Megapari Casino uses a simple registration procedure that does not require personal data entry during account creation, which means the system cannot automatically identify a self-excluded customer. Only after entering your full personal information—such as name, surname, date of birth, city, and country—does the casino system have the capability to verify self-exclusion.

More than 15 accounts have been created

and others that I don't remember at the moment.

I am in a critical situation because my son is risking his life and I need these reimbursements for medical care.

they were all created in the last year, megapari must have all the email addresses I registered with because they were all correctly verified

Furthermore, on Megapari I have always immediately entered both my date of birth and my name and surname in each account, they blocked me only when I entered my document number (mandatory for withdrawals) so before having a player deposit they should have greater security, given that for each account I have opened I have deposited with the exact same card.

They are fine with you playing even if you are a compulsive gambler, in fact as long as you lose and do not request withdrawals they do not require any verification, as soon as it is time to withdraw then they ask you for your document.

My complaint is not to get the winnings but to get back the deposits made on these accounts.

I think that given the way they withdrew my winnings when I won, they should have refunded my deposits when I lost, otherwise they are not protecting me as a compulsive gambler but rather they are taking advantage of my difficult situation.

I simply request a refund of all my deposits into these accounts, otherwise I will be forced to contact their licensing provider and expose the matter and file a legal action against Megapari.

Any winnings made on their site after self-exclusion were immediately confiscated but the deposits were never returned to me (only in the case where I had an active winnings, only part of the deposit was returned to me). Their assistance is non-existent and they do not even respond to me by email.

Megapari took advantage of my compulsive gambling condition.

in case I won they only refunded my deposit, in case I lost they simply closed the account even with several hundreds and thousands of euros in deposits.

I repeat, Megapari's behavior in the face of gambling addiction does not seem correct to me, as mentioned for the gambling debts that I have incurred, I also attempted gambling addiction and Megapari has a lot of this money, I simply request half of the deposits for a value equal to 5000 euros

I think my request is well-founded and I have already contacted my lawyer, I think they should have simply cancelled my games at the time of identification, and if you say that to verify a player it is enough to have your name, surname and date of birth, country of residence and city, I have always provided all this information immediately after registering each account before starting to play, with also the address of residence, so they should have blocked me immediately, precisely because they have a simple registration procedure, in any case during the deposit phase they ask again for all the information such as name, surname, date of birth, e-mail and address of residence, even the telephone number and I have always provided the same mobile number and the same information for each deposit made in each account, so they should have immediately blocked any attempt to deposit on my part before letting me start playing. It is not acceptable that they block you only when you enter the document number that is requested only to make the first withdrawal, they should have more security checks to protect players with gambling problems

here is the information they require during the deposit phase, so they should have all the elements to block me before making me deposit and play, furthermore I used during the deposit phase as I said in the other post the same mobile number and the same information that you are seeing in the screen for all my accounts created with them, in addition to the same payment method, that is the exact same card for each site, they should have blocked me immediately

Thank you for the information. I agree that player protection measures should indeed be implemented as soon as personal information is added to the player’s profile before depositing. However, to be able to continue with the investigation, I need to know the following information:

  • Could you please clarify if you currently have any active accounts with Megapari Casino?
  • When was the last time you made a deposit to this casino?
  • Additionally, could you specify which payment methods you used to deposit money into your casino accounts? Am I correct in understanding that you used only one card for all of your accounts? This information will be helpful as we continue with the investigation. Thank you for your cooperation.

Good morning, no at the moment I don't have any active accounts,

The last time I played at this casino was about a month ago.

As reported in my posts, yes I have used only one card for all my megapari accounts

Here is the proof that megapari is not safe and does not care about the safety of a compulsive gambler, in the screen you will see a deposit made with my card calmly executed, (the same card always used since the first megapari account), as you can see I enter all the personal information, I even enter the email of my first account from which I excluded myself for the first time, however the deposit happens calmly, without any problem. Does this seem normal and correct to you?

Megapari should protect me and not allow all this. It is the only site that has this security problem. I am self-excluded from all regulated Italian sites, I am self-excluded from almost all casino groups with Curacao licenses and more. I am not ashamed to say it, because of my uncontrolled addiction that led me to lose friendships, health, the affection of my family and great economic difficulties, I even attempted suicide.

Please, I need to be protected as soon as possible, I am entitled to a refund of at least 50% if not 100% of my deposits.

Veronika, I would like to know your opinion on the refund issue please, thank you in advance.

I don't want to make you anxious or rush, but please do it as soon as possible.

Thank you

Dear schieralorenzo09,

I’m Kubo, and I will be assisting you with your complaint moving forward. First and foremost, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you’ve experienced with Megapari Casino, and I want to assure you that I am committed to resolving this issue as quickly as possible.

Based on the details provided regarding your case, and in line with responsible gambling practices and the self-exclusion policy, I firmly believe you should be entitled to a refund of your deposits. I will make every effort to ensure that your case is addressed promptly and fairly.


I would like to invite the Megapari Casino's representatives to rejoin this discussion and provide any available information to help resolve this issue.


Dear Megapari Casino,

After reviewing the situation, I would like to bring to your attention a critical concern regarding the player's use of the same payment method across multiple accounts. This raises serious issues related to responsible gambling practices and the effectiveness of your self-exclusion measures.

While I understand the complexities of managing multiple accounts, it is clear that this issue goes beyond a case of account duplication. Instead, it highlights a failure in your system’s ability to prevent compulsive gambling behaviors, particularly when self-exclusion protocols should have been more robust.

It is imperative that your system not only detects and flags duplicate accounts but also stores and cross-references payment methods to identify and prevent repeated deposits from individuals who have self-excluded. The current measures appear insufficient to safeguard against players who may be trying to circumvent responsible gambling protections.

This situation suggests a systemic gap that needs to be addressed to ensure that vulnerable players are properly protected. I kindly ask that you respond to this issue at your earliest convenience and outline the steps you plan to take to resolve the situation and strengthen your self-exclusion protocols.


I trust that you will take this feedback seriously and implement the necessary improvements.


Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.


Best Regards,

Kubo

Hi Kubo, thank you very much for your effort.

Receiving this refund could help me get my life back on track and try to get out of gambling addiction for good.

I hope that megapari understands the mistakes made and commits to resolve the matter quickly and fairly for both parties, closing the situation peacefully and without the need to contact regulators or lawyers.

Thank you again for your interest.

Kubo at this point my initial complaint was for 50% of my deposits, I think if you agree that given the seriousness of the situation I can request the entire amount of my deposits for an amount of over 10,000 euros.

if the casino agrees to resolve the matter promptly and compensate me by the end of the week I agree not to seek damages through a lawyer from this company and to close the matter peacefully and without repercussions. I have already contacted my lawyer and he informed me that the request for damages would be justified. Thanks again for the help
