Blocked funds and account


2 months ago
I deposited €100 at this casino after seeing a promotion stating that if a player deposits €100 and places a bet with odds of 1.5 or higher, a bonus would be granted.
After depositing, I placed my first qualifying bet according to the promotion requirements. The bet lost. Immediately after this first bet was settled, my account was suddenly restricted by the casino.
At that moment, I still had approximately €130 remaining in my account balance (deposit and/or bonus funds). However, the casino blocked my account and prevented me from both withdrawing the remaining funds and continuing to play.
I contacted the casino support several times to request clarification and resolution. Unfortunately, the operator either ignored my communications or refused to provide a clear explanation for the restriction and the blocked balance.
I believe this situation is unfair because:
I followed the promotion requirements by depositing €100 and placing the required bet.
My account was restricted immediately after the first bet.
My remaining balance of €130 has been locked without a clear justification.

Askgamblers team, the casino still refuse to adress the main issue, they have not explained how I am supposed to wager and withdraw my funds if I am limited from betting.
Its impossible to wager and withdraw if you cannot bet.
Future or old players should be aware of this.
You cannot tell someone you have to walk everyday in order to get out of jail, if they don’t have legs. Its impossible

Dear Tarzaninas,

We understand your concerns and frustration regarding the difficulty of completing the wagering requirements.

However, we are not avoiding the question; rather, we are referring back to the framework that governs all accounts. With regard to your concerns about sports betting restrictions, please note that these betting limits are applied based on strict administrative decisions, as set out in Section 16 of our Sports Betting Rules.

While we recognise that this limit makes completing the bonus wagering highly challenging, the application of this administrative limit is final and non-negotiable. We cannot manually bypass or alter this decision.

We have provided all the relevant information about the rules that govern your account limits and, unfortunately, we cannot adjust these restrictions any further.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
Wazamba Casino Team

Complaint not answered
I am writing to make a formal complaint regarding Wazamba’s handling of my request for permanent self-exclusion due to gambling addiction and the subsequent losses incurred after I had clearly disclosed my gambling problem.
On 6 May 2026 at 08:56 EEST, I explicitly informed Wazamba that I wished to “self exclude on a permanent basis due to a gambling addiction.” Despite this clear disclosure, my account remained active and I was able to continue gambling, resulting in losses after my request had been made.
Under Irish gambling legislation and responsible gambling obligations applicable to licensed operators, once a player discloses a gambling addiction or requests self-exclusion, operators are required to take immediate protective action. These obligations include:
Facilitating immediate self-exclusion.
Closing or restricting the account where requested.
Preventing further gambling activity.
Ceasing marketing and inducements.
Acting where there are reasonable grounds to believe a customer is experiencing gambling-related harm.
Instead of immediately enforcing the exclusion request, I was encouraged to consider temporary cooling-off periods and was asked to reconfirm my decision, while my account remained operational. During this period, I continued to gamble and suffer significant financial losses.
I do not believe Wazamba fulfilled its duty of care or its responsible gambling obligations in my case. My original request was clear, unambiguous, and specifically referenced gambling addiction. The failure to act immediately directly contributed to further losses.
As a result, I formally request:
A full refund of all deposits and losses incurred after my initial self-exclusion request on 6 May 2026.
Written confirmation that my account has been permanently closed and excluded.
Confirmation that my personal details have been removed from all marketing communications.
A copy of Wazamba’s responsible gambling escalation procedures and complaint handling policy.
Wazamba have not answered my complaint sent on the 14th of May 2026.

Ignoring and attempts to delay the payment

Hi.

On 03/29/2026, I sent a withdrawal request in the amount of 500 euros, which was successfully credited to my wallet. After that, there were still around 600 euros left on my account, which I also wanted to withdraw, but I couldn't do it right away, because the site has a withdrawal limit of 1 every 24 hours and no more than 500 euros at a time.

Logged in the next day after the call to receive 1 request for withdrawal of 500 euros, and you will receive a notification that the "Account is frozen". Wazamba blocked 600 euros, which stopped at the account after the withdrawal of the first 500 euros.

I contacted the support service, where they told me that they would contact me by email. I haven't received any messages for several days. I found information on the 2nd page about what I did and what the name of the house was. I found out that this is possible due to the fact that Wazamba is called "Requesting payment details for manual withdrawal".

I immediately sent a reply to the message, providing all the necessary details for withdrawing funds to my bank account. Today is 05/06/2026. The funds have not been credited to my account.

I tried to find out how long it takes to pay into the account upon registration, but they did not answer me. I also did not receive a reply to my email stating that I had been contacted at work. I get standard unsubscriptions in the support chat, and it all looks like an attempt to delay time so that I forget and leave them the money I won...

To be honest, I'm shocked that I was lucky enough to win 1,100 euros, 500 of which you sent to my wallet, and the last 600 you decided to simply block the account.

Help me solve this problem so that the remaining 600 euros can be sent to the banking details that I sent to Wazamba in their message in my mailbox.

Thank you.
