I asked Kingmaker Casino for the first time on January 29, 2025 to block my account due to gambling addiction. A ticket was opened, but there was no response or closure. Instead, more and more bonus and promotional offers.

On February 7, 2025, the account was still open and the offers persuaded me to play again. I made 7 (!) deposits of €100 each and of course lost.

I then wrote to the casino again and requested my deposits back because they had ignored my request to be banned from playing. - no response!

On February 9, 2025, I contacted the casino for the third time (!!) and asked for the last time to block the account and refund the last amounts. A ticket was opened here too, but there was never a response.

I can still log in and start playing today! Player protection is zero!!

I am demanding a refund of the amounts that were paid after I first requested to close my account and that my account be closed immediately, but nothing has happened. On the contrary, I am being exploited and there is even more advertising. I was able to unsubscribe via email, but now I am suddenly being sent SMS with advertising offers. The casino is acting illegally in every respect.

What can I do??

Ich habe das Kingmaker-Casino am 29.01.25 das erste Mal um Kontosperre wegen Spielsucht gebeten. Ein Ticket wurde er?ffnet , aber es folgte weder eine Antwort noch die Schlie?ung. Stattdessen immer mehr Bonus-und Werbeangebote.

Am 07.02.25 war das Konto noch immer ge?ffnet und wegen der Angebote habe ich mich erneut zum Spielen überreden lassen. Ich habe 7 (!) Einzahlungen á 100€ get?tigt und natürlich verloren.

Daraufhin habe ich das Casino erneut angeschrieben und meine Einzahlungen zurückgefordert, da sie meinen Wunsch auf Spielsperre ignoriert haben. -keine Reaktion!

Am 09.02.25 habe ich das Casino ein 3. (!!) kontaktiert und letztmalig aufgefordert das Konto zu sperren und die letzten Betr?ge zu erstatten. Auch hier wurde ein Ticket er?ffnet, aber nie reagiert.

Ich kann mich auch heute noch einloggen und loszocken! Spielerschutz ist bei Null!!

Ich fordere die Beitr?ge zurück, die nach dem erstmaligen Wunsch der Kontoschlie?ung eingezahlt wurden und die sofortige Schlie?ung meines Kontos und nichts passiert. Im Gegenteil, es wird ausgenutzt und noch mehr Werbung gemacht. Per Email konnte ich es abmelden, jetzt werden mir pl?tzlich SMS gesendet mit Werbeangeboten. Das Casino handelt rechtswidrig in jeder Hinsicht.

Was kann ich tun??

Hello anettraabe,

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

• Could you please advise if your account is already verified and if yes, since when exactly?
• Would it be possible to forward your first self-exclusion request you sent to the casino to [email protected]?
• When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what did they respond?

Looking forward to your answer.

Regards,

Nick

Hello, I sent all the necessary data and emails to Nicolas on Friday. Yesterday I received an email from the casino for the first time (in response to my second email from February 8, 2025 in which I AGAIN asked for the account to be closed and for the last bets to be refunded.) The email was only NOW forwarded to the relevant department and only now has the account been "temporarily" blocked.

Hallo, ich habe am Freitag alle erforderlichen Daten und Emails an Nicolas gesendet. Gestern habe ich erstmalig eine Email vom Casino bekommen (als Antwort auf meine 2. Email vom 08.02.25 in der ich NOCHMALS um Kontoschlie?ung und auch um Rückzahlung der letzten Eins?tze gebeten habe.) Die Email wurde JETZT erst an die zust?ndige Abteilung weitergeleitet und erst jetzt wurde das Konto ?vorübergehend" gesperrt.

Thank you anettraabe for all the information provided. I will now forward your complaint to my colleague Matej ([email protected]) who will be assisting you from now on.

Wish you best luck resolving it.

Regards,

Nick
