Hello my first post on here and regrettably it is a complaint against one of the accredited casinos listed.




I received email yesterday from guts offering a match bonus on my deposit. My account has been opened for three or more years and is verified but I did upload my newer passport and debit card copies on my deposit.

Yesterday evening I played for many hours at guts and nearly finished wagering with a balance of 330.00 pounds. This morning I woke up and logged in and saw my account was blocked. I went on live chat to ask what had happened and they said I excluded two years ago at betspin and that directly affects my guts account too.



I remember I closed my betspin account in 2014 as the site had many errors and live chat was poor. I have the chat logs from the day I closed my account there and they refused to do it for me and told me to close myself on the interface via the exclusion policy even though I had no gambling problem. Even though guts live chat today said they will pay my win, I have some wagering left so not sure how to proceed? Also as you can see from the chat logs the operator said their terms don’t mention anything about betspin exclusion affecting guts.

So my post here is to ask for a reasonable outcome as I feel kind of cheated by the betspin exclusion when they refused to close my account for non-gambling issues. I do not mind continuing my wagering to make the cash in at guts but only have 29 days left before the funds expire. I am 64 years old and play maybe once a month at casinos on the net and my bets are below 50 pence. I do this for entertainment and do not consider my self addicted to any degree.

Thank you for listening as guts live chat started to get little unhelpful, rita

Contact their rep Yits via a private message (PM) and i am sure he will assist you:

There have been many cases in the past year where self-exclusion created a whole bunch of problems for players. However, i am sure Guts will honor your wins :)
 
Hi just a bit confused you say you closed betspin of 2 years ago back in 2014 ... betspin from what I know only opened its doors in 2015 ... was this just a typo or did I get it wrong ?

No you didn't get it wrong - and that's what I was about to say! :thumbsup:
From my records they opened around March 2015.
They definitely were not open in 2014.

Thanks was almost sure that was the case .... but yep it was just last year. So maybe the OP can not clarify this ?

Hmm.

Becouse agent have forced to you use SE tool. it has affect your Guts account.

But you have proof that you dint want it for gambling reason, so your Guts account should be open after the chat log proof.
 
if the chat proves it wasnt gambling related and chat forced you to do it that way, im sure guts will honor your cashout. In all honesty you should still be allowed to play there too. But I dont know how their system is set up so you might not be able to

edit: read the chat. You will be fine for getting your money at least. I wonder if guts can remove you from the self exclusion list since you were told do this even though it wasnt related to your issue.

Also, guts support should not be telling people do this when it was very clearly not the issue.

Maybe it was live already in 2014 in a BETA version, would explain that there were many errors
 
I informed both, Yits from Guts and Mikko from Betspin about this thread.

I am sure they will take care of it swiftly. :)
 
Exactly what happened to me at casinocruise.
They refused to close my account, said i had to do it myself.
This is before i was clued up on all the self exclusin stuff.
I did, then now cant play any Everymatrix casino.
Mine wasnt gambling related problems either, i was having lots of problems on thier site.

Now i dont close any accounts
 
We were established as a company 2014 but just as a company. We opened for all 2.2.2015 so perhaps there is a mistake in the year. Anyway, we'll look into this.

Similar problems for me this morning. Found out a couple of accounts were closed because sometime last year (when I was still green with regards this online gambling) I self excluded at Betspin for no other reason than that they charge when making a deposit via debit card.

A little annoyed that this was not picked up when money was deposited and then lost, but hopefully this can be resolved by the casino rep who I have informed via Private Message.

Lesson learned for me too: never self exclude!

Hi ritae,

please send a PM (your betspin and guts username) to me so I can see if there is something we can do.

Cheers

A heartfelt thank you for the replies. I thought it was late 2014 from memory but it was the week they launched as they sent me a email saying they had opened their doors to Britain.

I attempted to get further information on dates from betspin today but their entire web site is offline for maintenance so I sent mikko a message here.

I hope they will solve it for you.
I also hope that Betspin don't tell people that they have to self exclude any longer. That took me by real surprise to read.

I have had a similar strange issue myself relating to Rizk and Guts. I have PM'd both Rizk and Guts' reps.

I had it resolved to my satisfaction with my £50 deposit refunded.

I rather that my accounts remained open at Guts and Rizk but I can fully understand that they have to comply with regulations and not let me play whilst I self excluded at another of their casinos despite the reason for the self exclusion not being gambling related.

I am sure that your issue will be resolved too :thumbsup:

Mine's a bit of a mess, even the CS guy said so. I'm keeping it off here as I'm sure it's a cock-up as opposed to anything more sinister. I take heart that you and others have had the response you'd expect from Guts and their linked sites. :thumbsup:
 
I spoke a little too soon.

The Rizk refund was done hassle free and how it should be :thumbsup:

However, Guts is being a little awkward and are not refunding me until such time I have sent them a bank statement. Why they require this when their records show the deposit and no withdrawal I fail to understand.

Really disappointing and I do hope that the rep here on the forum (who I have sent a private message) can help me with this as I will refuse to send them my bank statement showing personal financial information that is none of their business.

We're not talking thousands here either - just a measly £25
 
Same thing happened to me yesterday when i tried to log in, account suddenly closed due to self exlusion on Betspin (really should be a warning when using self exlusion that it might impact other casinos your signed up with), thankfully i had no balance.
 
Reading back the chat transcript, I am still annoyed by this:

I'm sorry but there is nothing I can do, that's what they have asked us to request if you contact us Mark

Shouldn't these refunds be automatic once they discovered it? What would have happened if I didn't contact them?

It is leaving a rather sour taste in my mouth :(
 
Hi Rita,

Sadly we are bound by regulations and cannot re-open your account, even if we would like to in light of your explanation.

3 things:

1. You are not required to self-exclude in order to close your account - if you were informed as such, that's an error on our part if it's accurate and we apologize. An agent can block your account for you if you so wish. If anyone tells you otherwise, then get back to me.

2. We are taking your feedback seriously - the signposting prior to self-excluding should also be clearer regarding the sharing of a license. It's in process, may take a little while but it will get there.

3. I am checking what shall be done regarding the bonus funds. In whatever case, your deposit will be refunded no matter what. I should have a reply tomorrow.

Hi interlog,

I totally understand your thoughts about this. However if you are in the UK, you absolutely by law need to provide full documentation (even if you are not closed, you will be shut if you don't send it in within 72 hours....)

It's nothing personal - all casinos operating in the UK are nowadays obliged to do this.

Ping me on PM if you need :)

Wow surprised to see another self exclusion nightmare thread especially with a such a respected brand :eek:

Really need to see more transparency in the terms and conditions on MT Secure trade sites and would hate to see brands such as Guts and Rizk in the same boat as EveryMatrix/888.

In regards to the OP, if she is really 64 years old (Guts verified as she said) and hasn't broken any rules but suffering because of a BetSpin error, I think it would be a nice gesture to pay her full balance. :thumbsup:
