Failed to self exclude me

Hi

Earlier this year I requested a permanent self exclusion from Vegas Hero and instigated a complaint with Askgambers which was rejected as I didn't have the supporting documents which was due to having lost my previous phone on which the screenshots etc were saved. You can probably locate this complaint which will give the dates around which I had been sending emails etc to close my account due to gambling problems. Last week I gambled with the site again and then sent further emails and had chats on their support asking again for permanent exclusion. Again like before the site just didn't respond to me at all. I have also this morning asked for a copy of all my previous correspondence with the site to prove I have asked several times to be excluded to no avail. I also lost further monies last night again and I hope to recoup losses as I feel this site is in breach of its responsibility to safer gambling tools. I hope your site can assist me in closing my account permanently, recouping losses and helping to get the site to provide this previous correspondence that they surely have on file which will support my claim.

I am starting this complaint quickly as I simply don't expect to hear anything back from this site which is what happened previously. Can you advise me if the site has to provide me with my previous correspondence as this is the evidence I need to prove that they have repeatedly ignored my requests and kept my account open and allowed me to keep gambling on the site despite knowing about my gambling problem

I have attached proof of recent deposits also.

Finally I have had a response from Vegas Hero and they have permanently closed my account but they are refusing to refund any deposits and do not acknowledge that my account exclusion was requested months ago and therefore no recent deposits should have been allowed so I dispute their refusal to refund me any money and have asked for them to acknowledge the timing of my initial request to close to account. Thier reason for not refunding me is spurious and does not take into account that they actively encouraged further gambling from me despite knowing for months I had a gambling problem and have not upheld their own so called safer gambling policy

Vegas Hero rather than do the decent thing and permanently close my account and refund deposits they should never have taken instead made me a VIP member and sent a slew of bonuses to encourage me to gamble even more and they have the nerve to say they are committed to safer gambling.

Hi,
I’m early January I signed up to Vegas hero and over the next two months made upwards of 10 deposits and approximately $9,000 of deposits made always losing and having no troubles.

Last week I made a deposit and using no bonus or haunt any active bonus on my account won a large amount of money.
Attempted my first two withdrawals seemed to be easy enough then sent email asking how long would take they said it can take up to 3 business days but should be faster being a vip level 5. I have continually emailed them for updates and asking what is the hold up they initially replied regularly basically delaying me saying they’d look into it etc.

They have now stopped replying and have ignored multiple emails from me and have not heard from them since Friday last week and have made no progress on my account with any of them. It is now over a week since I made the withdrawals that promised would be done within 3 business days.

I am now assuming it is a scam site after reading many reviews online saying they’d look into have done the same thing but hoping you guys can help me.

I have $4,500 aud in pending withdrawals and $20,000aud in balance waiting to withdrawal. I will not be placing another wager until it is sorted out.

Attached are photos of withdrawal pending from 04/03 still saying under review. And verification still saying under review despite it already showing was verified for the last two months I was using it.
