Self excluded not granted, still able to deposit


I requested to be self excluded in February. I asked to be self excluded and have the email to prove this.
Then I got an email saying if I re-open my account they will give me £20 bonus.
Obviously as I like to gamble I jumped at this offer and opened my account ( firstly they shouldn't let you open a self excluded account?)
Anyhow account reopened and I've gone on to deposited £100 again and lost. I have no self excluded my self again.
My argument is why would you close my account when I asked for the to be self excluded in this first place. At what point did I ask for it to be closed?

Considering all the information and evidence provided during the course of the complaints process, AskGamblers Complaints Team came to the following conclusion.

Casino acted according to their self-exclusion policy #10.2

"When administering the self-exclusion on Your account, the onus is on you to complete the process which is to confirm that you understand the exclusion restrictions and then click a link that takes you to a page where you must select the period of time you wish to be excluded for, and to confirm that self-exclusion by clicking ‘submit’. You will then receive an email to confirm that the self-exclusion has been successful. IF YOU DO NOT COMPLETE THE PROCESS, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL REMAIN ACTIVE. If you are unable to complete the automated process yourself, then you must contact support by email and request that they apply the self-exclusion for you and that you attempted the automated process and that you want us to manually self-exclude you. Unless you state otherwise, the self-exclusion period will be set at six months."

and sent an email with instructions to the player, but unfortunately, the player didn' comply and finish the self-exclusion procedure. 

Based on the above AskGamblers Complaints Team consider the case as resolved and it being officially closed now. In case of a disagreement with our decision we recommend player to seek further assistance on the matter from the relevant regulatory body.

Considering the fact this is not the first time when SpinStation Casino is involved into a dispute referring to Responsible Gaming issues, AskGamblers Complaints Team strongly encourage the casino management to consider possible amendments to all the relevant Responsible Gaming policies, including but not limited to their current Self-Exclusion policy and make sure their players will be granted all the necessary tools to protect themselves in case of a problem gambling issue.

Hi,

I read that if I sent an email asking them directly to self exclude my account as per there terms they would do.

I belived as per there terms when an email is sent directly to there support team they would do so.

Otherwise you can just do this directly through there website. I read on this platform of another player doing so and it never worked and they was allowed to continue depositing hench why I sent the email directly to there support team.

Then I logged in my account was closed.

There term states that if you don't follow the link, you account remains active (this is clearly stated in there terms)

So once I see my account closed I assume this was them excluding my log in details.

Why was the account closed?
I followed the terms and emailed directly??

No available withdrawal methods
Hi,

I registerd yesterday at Spinstation (where it shows many options for deposit etc). And i saw it had MGA-license, so i thought ohh well must be a decent site. It took 1 second to deposit money with VISA.

After playing for a while i decided that i want to withdraw the reminding funds, when i got to "withdrawl" there is ZERO options for me. Is that even legal? Look attached picture. On "withdrawl method": it says "new bank information", BUT heres the funny part.. Spin Station has disabled bank transfers... It says in red text when you try to withdraw, meaning.. there is zero options for you to withdraw money. Attached picture with red text says bank transfer is disabled.

So.. Since there not a single option for me to withdraw money (but multiple when wanting to deposit LOL), i had to contact support. Support could not help me and told me i need to speak with the "accounting team" the next day or they could "escalate" the issue, but it would take 24-48 hours to get an answer. So i waited to the next day and contacted support again, this time support said accounting doesnt speak with customers. When i said bank transfer is disabled on their site, i was asked to wait 20 minutes for an answer. Then they wanted me to come back later to speak to a Norwegian and they closed the chat. After contacting support trough email, i found out there are two options Ezeewallet and LuxonPay (scam options? these two options does not even show up at their site and both apps has 10k downloads in Play Store.... with 10$ withdrawl fee to bank + takes 3 days). They wanted me to deposit even more money with LuxonPay or Ezeewallet then try to withdraw with one of these options? like wtf? Why would i deposit more money when there is zero options to withdraw it in "withdrawls"? This has been the utterly most worst times ive ever had at any site.

Purposely delaying verification process
Hello, I made my first withdraw on spinstation on 27-5-2017 and received a message for verification documents to send. I have send the documents the same day and in their terms it should take max 48 hours to verify the account after they received the documents. on 31-5-2017 early in the morning i received finally an answer that 1 document is older than 3 months and they need another. ( in the mail it said nothing about the 3 months rule, but okay i've send a new one right after it.) Every day i send emails if the verification is finished and everyday same respone "apologize for the delay" or "sorry we have a slight backlog" And this is not acceptable, if i don't follow their rules i have a big problem, but they can use these delaying tactics without problems. Every day i also ask in livechat why it take so long and everytime they say something else. "tomorrow they will get back to you" tomorrow the relevant department will contact you and you receive a notification that the account is verified" And today i received this response in livechat, "Thank you for holding. My accounts team has advised that one of our hosts has already escalated the account verification matter today and they are busy sorting the matter out with priority, we apologize once again for the delay but they were experiencing a slight backlog for the weekend passed. " But i don't believe them anymore, and hope you can help me to resolve this case. Kind regards, Steven
