Hello all,

I am new here and yes unfortunately this is one of these SE deposit cases.

Basically, I self excluded from BET UK on 18/06/2018 for a period of 5 years. BET UK and Royal Panda have confirmed to me just last week that my self exclusion should have been across all the sister companies within Leo Vegas group and Royal Panda.

Unfortunately this was not the case. My SE for royal Panda and all the other sister companies only went live as of 10/06/2019.. during this time I deposited and played with (No withdrawals) £49,000.

Within each account I have used the same name, DOB, address email address. I have not try to manipulate any self exclusion system or create any duplicate accounts.

Do I have a case to claim back these deposits?

I appreciate the help guys as I am really lost and confused.

Thanks,
Mark
 
First question: have you asked the casino to refund your deposits?

Second question: have you contacted the rep here for assistance? (https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/members/melvin-panda.39849/)

Third question: assuming you've done all of the above have you considered using our Complaints service? Submit Your Online Casino Complaint - Casinomeister

Hi - I have reached out to Royal Panda but the process is taken a painfully long time and the lack of progress is causing me some considerable stress.

I am completely brand new to this service so I am not sure how to reach out the representative.

A complaint is only something I am looking to do if the outcome from my efforts are unsuccessful.

Thanks

Follow the link to the rep and click on "Send Private Message".
Easy peasy.

If it's been in their hands for more than a week and you're seeing no progress then you should be looking to take this to the next step.
It sounds like that would be contacting the rep. Again, if a week passes and no progress then it's time to lodge a complaint.

Many thanks Max!

I have wrote to Melvin although he hasn’t been active in a few weeks. Hopefully they see my message.

Thanks,

:thumbsup:
FYI the conscientious reps have alerts set so that they receive an email reminder when someone sends them a Private Message. You're about to find out whether Melvin is one such rep. :)

I agree... however a conscientious rep would also simply pop onto the forum every now and again to see what's going on in casinomeister land and how that may affect their casino or just out of interest re casinos generally. More and more reps just hide away which is a little sad.

No arguments there. The best ones always do.
 
I hope you have signed up for Gamstop now. Sounds like this could be a big problem here.

The comments about the dates is incorrect. LV have had loads of issues, well documented, on exclusions not applying across their network. Suggest you read up on these and there conclusions.
 
Still no further forward with Royal Panda; however, I had a particular pleasant chat with one of their customer service agents who said “if he could refund me the money he would” and that “It’s with the relevant department who will provide me with an update on either Friday or Monday”.

I hoping that no news is good news and if I weren’t getting a refund I would have heard by now.

I am only posting this so others who may be in similar situation can see my outcome.
 
am i right to think u deposited £49,000?
or you won that amount?
if you deposited that amount surely you will get it back. that would be criminal if they took your money

I deposited that money 20k in one day and won a big fat £0. I’m hoping so my friend but I’m not counting my chickens..
 
As may (?) have been mentioned earlier, RP was taken over by LeoVegas. LV has not been very cooperative on player complaints since late last year so it wouldn't be terribly shocking if RP followed in those footsteps. I certainly hope not but there is that possibility to consider.

I’m not holding out for reply from them on this if I’m honest. Hopefully get the outcome I want on Friday or Monday as promised.
 
So half a year on LV and all its shell companies are (from what I've read on here) unresponsive to player issues? And that would not impact their accreditation score how? :confused:

Answering that question is a work in progress. The industry is changing -- particularly the player complaints side of it -- and we're trying to determine what best to do about it. As you might imagine it's not an easy nut to crack, hence the current state of flux.

A good part of the problem here is the fallout from the GDPR. As with the DPA (Data Protection Act) before it the legal departments at some casinos seize on that as an opportunity to lock everyone out of the player complaints process. There is generally no other justification for it, it's just a corporate decision to keep outsiders away and/or limit potential liability. Of course it has the "side effect" of limiting scrutiny of their treatment of players but I'll leave it to the reader to decide how much of a coincidence they believe that to be.

FWIW these issues mostly relate to the larger, corporatized casinos. The smaller boutique casinos aren't (typically) playing these games.

But surely if they are using the GDPR as an excuse to be non responsive, when it isn't a legitimate reason, then surely the score they have must be affected? If there is a legitimate reason for them not to speak to you about a player complaint, or to post on the forum about an issue then it shouldn't, but to just ignore the forum and you for no reason surely should result in a lower score and they shouldn't be accredited any more in some cases. Not logging in weekly and not being communicative about problems such as this are both against the accredited standards, and this isn't the first time LV/RP haven't replied to threads/PM's. There are other things they don't seem to take notice of either when it comes to the standards they should be doing :(
