Hi,


I tryed to close my account for gambling reasons a few times. But the casino did not respond to my emails.


I told them again 2 days ago I am gambling addicted. My account is still open. I told the mail and the support chat.


Since I already told the casino at End of July I claim back all deposits after. That's 450€. Casino refused to close my account on my requests and did not respond. That's against player protection rules. I could still deposit now because they don't close it.


Sadly I do not have the old mails whet ei asked to close my account. Only the actual one. But the casino should have the mails in their system.


Thanks for help.

Dear Max,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Could you please forward all the emails or screenshots showing that you have sent requests for the self-exclusion? My email address is petronela.k@casino.guru. Did you specify in those requests for how long you wish your account to be closed and clearly stated the reason why? Please understand without supporting evidence it would be close to impossible to confront the casino.

I have checked terms and conditions on the website, and this is what I found https://weltbet.com/en/pages/responsible-gaming:


„If you believe you have a gambling problem or just wish to take an enforced break from gaming, Weltbet gives you the power to exclude yourself from playing for a defined period of time. If you choose to exclude yourself, you will be banned from betting on our site.

All you need to do is contact our Customer Care team at support@weltbet.com or click the chat icon and provide us with the period in which your account will be exluded. You may extend your exclusion at any time, however you may shorten or remove the account exclusion only once a 24 hour "cooling-off" period passes from the initial request for change."


Is this support@weltbet.com the email address you have sent your emails to?

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

Best regards,

Petronela

Hi,


Yes that is the mail I used. The support chat always told me to write a mail. They did not help me to close my account.


Sadly I don't have the old mails anymore but I requested all my account closure request I made by mail from the casino. I hope they will provide me with all informations since they store the mails I sent them. But possibly they won't help me because they know they made mistakes.


Btw now 3 days later my account is still open. I uploaded that Screenshot. It is the same way like the last times I tryed to close it. But I can not proof the other mails. I hope they sent me all my closure requests.


I will provide if they send me some informations. Hope they cooperative this time. Will get back to u as soon as possible.

Hi,


thanks, I noticed that. Finnaly that worked after going with casino guru complaint.


But that is not my point in this complaint. I wrote you like 4-5 times before, weeks and month ago and always some time between, to close my account on your site weltbet. Nothing happened after. Also the chat only told me to write mails and they can't help me in chat. Therefore I was able to keep depositing/loose even if I asked for account closures.


That's why I claim my deposits, that I was able to do after the account closure requests, I sent you and that you ignored. Looking forward to your answer. I am open to a compromise in this case, since I did not save the old closure requests mails. That's my bad.


Since I think you store the mails I sent you from my mail, you should be aware of what I am talking about.


Thanks for your answer. Kind regards.

Hi,


Sadly I can not deliver. I wrote like 4-5 mails before the last closure request, when you finally closed my account.


But I deleted this sent mails when I cleaned my sent mails structure. I guess you can't help me then and it is my fault I deleted the mails.


I was hoping, that you, Weltbet, have every mail you got from my email-dress, stored in your mailing system.


If it is like that, I would appreciate, if you watch on it again, and if you think, you made a mistake, then refund me with the money I lost after my first request for closure that was ignored (probably on mistake). I don't want bad blood between us. Just hope for a solution in this case with you. Always open for a compromise. In my opinion that should be 450€ (my last deposits). I know you are a economic oriented company, but think about me as a human being. Thanks for being honest with yourself in this case.


I appeal to your certainty to check this again carefully. Appreciate this.


Thanks for your help. Wish you all involved a good day! Hope we find a good solution. 🙂

Sadly.. As expected. No response. I got nothing via mail in that case aswell.. :- /


Sure they know what went wrong but they are not interested in solving the issue. Ofc.. Would cost the company some money.


Would have appreciated if they accepted the issue happened and refund me. But sadly not the case.

Since we haven’t received further response from the casino regarding the issue, we are forced to close the complaint as ‘unresolved’.

The casino can reopen this complaint anytime.


Dear Max.


I am very sorry, but since the casino team is unresponsive, we’re not able to proceed with further investigation. Another option is to file an official complaint at ADR and/or licensing authority of the casino. I will gladly help you with it. Please, be aware that this complaint will affect their reputation on our website. Let me know if you have any questions or require further assistance.


Best regards, Jozef
