Sportiumbet Casino - The player's self exclusion failed.

I had already had problems with this casino and I even tried to exclude myself on April 27 and I never received an answer, obviously because I have problems for betting I kept playing, I managed to withdraw 3 times with a lot of work since they told me that I was not verified when I never did. They said even though I had already uploaded my documents.

I kept playing and a few days ago I deposited 200 pesos, I went down but I managed to get up to 300 pesos and I preferred to withdraw, I was waiting a few days until I received a notification that they canceled the withdrawal because I had not met the wagering requirements but I did not have any bonus, it It makes me illogical that they ask you to spend more than what you deposit when you don't ask for a bonus.

I contacted by chat to ask for my exclusion and they told me that for that I first have to be verified, which I already am, otherwise I would not have asked to withdraw previously, they gave me the email again where I have to write but I have not done it, like I said they have not answered the previous one, I stayed online waiting for an answer but they closed my session, today I went back in and I am still not excluded.

Unfortunately, chats cannot be saved, so I don't have proof of the chat, but I do have screenshots of the email sent in April and the one received, canceling my withdrawal.

Since I asked for my exclusion I have lost more than I have won and I know that if they do not close my account I will continue betting so I need help.

I attach screenshots of the mentioned emails.

Hello SoyOskarSanchez,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with GANABET Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.

Could you please advise since when is your account supposed to be fully verified? Did you play casino games or sports betting? Is there any evidence that you've actually requested for self-exclusion? When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

I answer your questions in order.

On June 7 they deposited 3 pending withdrawals which indicates that it was 100% verified since they did not deposit them because according to them it was not verified.

I played casino games, I don't do sports betting.

Yesterday I attached two screenshots, one of them was when I asked for self-exclusion in April but they never answered me, unfortunately that's why I kept playing, I attach the image below.

It was Monday since they canceled a withdrawal again because I did not meet the wagering requirements, it is worth mentioning that I did not have any bonus, I deposited 200 pesos between the time I played, it went up to 300 pesos and I withdrew it, since I had to continue playing to be able to withdraw according to your comments because I lost them, I entered the chat to request my self-exclusion and I was waiting for them to do it when they closed the session, unfortunately the conversations are not saved and I do not have screenshots of them, I am attaching an image of the email that they sent me about withdrawal cancellation.

I hope I have answered your questions, any questions I'm still pending.

Hello SoyOskarSanchez,

Firstly I would like to point out that the e-mail from April can't be considered as self-exclusion as it does not contain any reference to self-exclusion, gambling problems or addiction therefor the casino was not obligate to close your account as even if they would close it, you would be able to reopen it anytime.

Regarding the wagering - even though you did not claim any bonus, most of casino has wagering requirements for real money deposits to prevent money laundering. This wagering may range from 1x-5x and it is a completely fair request from the casino.

If you wish to withdraw your balance you have to wager the deposit amount. Also please keep in mind that the self-exclusion is a tool to prevent gambling addicts to play in casinos. Unless you have any gambling problems or issues, you can still close your account that way but you won't be able to reopen it anymore.
