What's the purpose of setting a limit or offering limits if you can simply remove it and go hog wild? Once you set a limit is there a time frame you must wait before you can raise it or remove?
Yes i feel sick to be honest to be treated like this, i had comps at betsson for a while now that they have taken and i dont remember my balance at casinoeuro too. If they were proffesionals they would send all those remaning balance (also on betsafe as i didnt leave from there completely 0) back to deposit options and also as they promised for a cashback to neteller. i read they also ditch everyones affiliate program so this sounds like they simply dont care.
By the way to Brian i got email from betsafe that my deposit limit was removed the same day i maked "note this is google translate from norwegian to english so it can have some words that is wrong" note i wrote long email to Gabriella but she didnt answer nothing but this :
"Regarding the aforementioned deposit limit of Kr 1000 daily, You removed this limit 29.12.2013.
Regarding your question about how we behave as a responsible company so I refer you to please see our previous response.
With Best Regards,
Gabriella
Customer Service Manager"
This company is lying about the limit, she says the day i set limit i also removed this? do i have case to submit for a PAB here?
... do i have case to submit for a PAB here?
I've given you access to the PAB submission page. Please submit one as soon as you can. Thanks! If you have any problems, please let me know.
OP probably reduced their limit and then raised/removed it the same day. This is an effective way to take a week's break, as increases in limits take 7 days to come into effect, while a decrease is instant.
Based on Betsafe's response, I'd be fairly certain that this is what happened. (although I obviously hope to be wrong)
Are you playing with the said casino for a long time now or just recently?
From reading his posts it looks like he was a long-time member at Betsafe, as well as at several other casinos in the same group.Are you playing with the said casino for a long time now or just recently?
The rep reports that the account was closed because the player wrote them asking for compensation on the large losses and yet the player was clearly on tilt. Seriously, given what the player was saying the only responsible thing for the casino to do WAS to close the account without hesitation. If they hadn't they may well have been on the hook for anything that followed, which could have been pretty much anything given the player's obviously distressed state of mind.
I've also find it very irresponsible that Betsafe has allowed this type of behavior in deposits that clearly demonstrates a loss of control by the player.
IMO this should not be an attitude from a company that claims to offer responsible gaming.
Definitely right thing to do for the Casino, but how come some kind of flag did not go off at say 10K or 12K or even 20K? I am sure if a player makes those kind of deposits in a such short time someone's got to notice.....
For who routinely does not deposit these kinds of amounts in a short timeframe, for who is spending much more than usually spend, for someone that had imposed lower deposit limits before, just to give you a few samples. It's very easy to spot this kind of change in behaviour. In fact these obvious changes of behavior are already monitored by large casinos to protect themselves against fraud and security violations.
You clearly do not understand anything about human behavior.
OK cool.
So your solution is......???
Before you say "have a set cutoff/alarm limit"...think about players who routinely deposit these kinds of amounts...and there are plenty. How annoyed would you be to have to explain yourself every time you pass the limit? And...what should be the limit? $1k? $5k? $50k? You need to either state a number, or the whole idea is unworkable (and probably would be anyway). I mean....at what point did they lose control? Can you please elaborate?
.... The casino is there to protect themselves and others from fraud and money laundering. So they have had no choice to take action against him.
Generally speaking it is wise not to make assumptions about behing-the-scenes stuff which you can't possibly know anything about:
- AFAIK the casino's actions had nothing to do with fraud or money laundering and their actions weren't about protecting their financial interests. As I said previously when the OP wrote to them he was clearly in a deeply unhealthy state of mind and obviously had no control over his spending. The casino largely acted to protect the player not themselves.
- It is not really fair to say that "casino did not provide enough clear information", rather it was more an issue of me wanting to know more about aspects of the case which had not, as yet, been the focus of attention. I have no reason to believe the casino withheld anything nor that they will.
