Dear Casino Guru Team,


I contacted Tigerspin by email 2 days ago that I was at risk of gambling addiction and would like to close my account. No answer yet, the account is still open.


I also noticed and stated this in the same email to Tigerspin that the Tigerspin Casino runs under the same license MGA / B2C / 284/2014 as Lapalingo. I have been banned from Lapalingo for a long time due to gambling addiction. Attached you will find the confirmation that I am banned there due to gambling addiction.


As part of the MGA license, I should not have been able to register, let alone verify, at Tigerspins Casino, as you are obliged to comply with the gambling addiction lock casino license across the board. I am already verified there.


I am relying on the following information.


MGA Player Protection Directive (2018) - Part IV - Responsible Gaming:


"Provided further that, in the event that a player has been excluded by the B2C

licensee in light of sufficient reasons which indicate that the player may have problem gambling issues, that player shall be excluded across all brands operated by the B2C licensee. "


The "sufficient reason" are legally more than fulfilled with my ban on Lapalingo.


I've consistently used the same data. Username and mail were also identical in the casinos.


I therefore request the repayment of my € 100 deposit at Tiger Spins.


So far, Tigerspins has not contacted me about the account closure or my reimbursement request.


I only ask for the deposit of € 100 as I should not have been allowed to register at Tigerspins Casino.


I thank you for your feedback.

Dear Max,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and forwarding the relevant communication. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I have checked the License Validator and this is what I found (here):

Could you please advise how long ago was your Lapalingo Casino account blocked? Have you used the same credentials to open your TigerSpin Casino account? Additionally, please forward your cashier/deposit history to petronela.k@casino.guru.


Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Petronela

Hello.


Thanks for your help. I sent the deposit info. It is only 100€ deposit. No cashouts.


I asked Lapalingo now for the exact date of the closure because or the gambling issues. But it is more than 12 month ago I would guess. Probably even more. So a lot of time passed. And on tiger I registered 3 days ago. So they should have been aware of the issue. I will give the info, if Lapalingo write me. But it was more than enough time between this.

Update two: 13 days later, and my account is still open on Tigerspin and not blocked. I told them I am gambling addicted on 19th December.


This casino should work on this big issue on player protection. It is against all licence rules. I mailed them multiple times.

Hi,


Thanks, but this is not solving my issue.


As I wrote I should not have been able to play at your casino since I am blocked on Lapalingo for gambling issues. It is the same licence as you.


MGA Player Protection Directive (2018) - Part IV - Responsible Gaming:


"Provided further that, in the event that a player has been excluded by the B2C

licensee in light of sufficient reasons which indicate that the player may have problem gambling issues, that player shall be excluded across all brands operated by the B2C licensee. "


The "sufficient reason" are legally more than fulfilled with my ban on Lapalingo.


That's why I claim my 100€ deposits, because you violated the Player Protection Directive by the MGA.


Also I have proof of sent emails (I sent this to casino guru) that I requested the closure. I also have the proof that Lapalingo blocked my account for gambling issues like 1 year ago.


Pls refund the 100€ deposit. After that my issue is solved.
