Dear Casino Guru,

I am writing to lodge a formal complaint against an online gambling platform Nordslot, that merged with Spacefortuna, wich they lie abour. for unethical and potentially unlawful conduct that has caused me significant financial and emotional distress.

Complaint Summary:

The platform allowed me to deposit 6000 within hours despite clear signs of problematic gambling behavior, violating its responsibility to safeguard player well-being. This negligent behavior, combined with the platform's lack of a Dutch license, further compounds the issue.

Key Points of Concern:

Violation of Responsible Gambling Obligations:

The platform failed to intervene or take preventative measures despite evident signs of problematic gambling. This directly contradicts their Terms and Conditions, which state they reserve the right to intervene to protect player health and well-being.

Unlawful Operation in the Netherlands:

As a resident of the Netherlands, I have discovered that the platform lacks the proper licensing to legally offer its services in this jurisdiction. Under Dutch law, online casinos without a valid license are prohibited from accepting Dutch players, rendering their Terms and Conditions void and unenforceable in my case.

Acknowledgment of Gambling Problem Without Adequate Action:

After reporting my gambling issues, the platform permanently excluded me from their services. This action indicates their acknowledgment of my gambling problem but does not address their responsibility to safeguard my well-being earlier.

Failure to Refund Despite Responsibility:

I requested a refund of, which represents the balance lost due to the platform’s failure to uphold responsible gambling practices and legal compliance.

Dear Larsieboii,

Thank you for submitting your complaint, and I am truly sorry to hear about your issue with Space Fortuna Casino. Before proceeding further, I would like to ask a few additional questions to better understand the situation.

  • Could you please confirm whether your account was ever verified?
  • Have you ever processed any withdrawal from the casino?
  • When was the last time you communicated with the casino, and what was the discussion about?


Please also note that if the casino blocked your account upon being informed of gambling addiction, they acted in accordance with standard procedures, and you would not be eligible for a refund for any activity prior to that.

Looking forward to your response.

Best regards,

Nick

When was the last time you communicated with the casino, and what was the discussion about? Last month, about that Nordslot is nowhere to be found out and they told me nordslot merged with spacefortuna, but they couldn’t find my game history or account details. I have screenshot of everything.

Dear Larsieboii,

Unfortunately, unless you specifically requested or mentioned gambling addiction to the casino, they had no reason to block you in any way.

Additionally, it is the player's responsibility to check if the casino is available in their region before registering. Unless the casino specifically restrict a country, you are free to play there. If your country has specific laws for that, the player is responsible to follow them.

Is there anything else we could assist you with?

Regards,

Nick

So after making me wait for a week while you already asked more information on my complaint, you just tell me you can’t help me? You just closed my complaints all within 3 minutes. Do you even read them?
