EURO Roulette Race Week tournament prize money of 1000 euros not paid out


2 years ago
I am writing to seek your assistance regarding an unresolved issue with my prize payout from the EURO Roulette Race Week tournament. I placed second in this event, which can be confirmed by my betting history and the tournament leaderboard. According to the terms and conditions, the prize money of 1000€ was supposed to be credited to my account within 72 hours. Unfortunately, four days have passed, and I have still not received the prize money. This is a clear violation of the terms and conditions from the casino side. I tried contacting live support and sending an email, they did not give me any response or explanation for two days.

Could you please guide me on how to escalate this matter and ensure I receive the prize money owed to me? Thank you very much for your help.

Failure to enforce permanent self exclusion

Complaint amount: Approximately €1,300

I would like to submit a formal complaint against Wazamba Casino regarding its handling of my permanent account closure due to gambling addiction.

On 21 February 2025, I contacted Wazamba’s customer support and explicitly requested that my account be permanently closed because I was struggling with gambling addiction.

My exact message was:

“I want to delete my account forever due to gambling addiction.”

This was not a request for a temporary suspension or a short break from gambling. I clearly stated that I wanted my account closed permanently because I had a gambling addiction and needed to protect myself from further gambling.

I have screenshots of the entire conversation, including the agreement with customer support and Wazamba’s written confirmation that my account had been closed at my request, without the possibility of reopening it.

However, despite this explicit agreement and confirmation, I was subsequently able to access my account again and continue gambling.

To the best of my recollection, I never requested that my account be reopened or that the permanent closure restrictions be lifted.

Unfortunately, this resulted in another serious gambling episode during which I deposited and lost approximately €1,300.

My gambling behaviour during this period showed clear signs of compulsive gambling, including numerous small deposits, repeated deposits despite losses, and continuous gambling throughout the entire night.

I find it extremely concerning that a casino that had already been explicitly informed about my gambling addiction, and had agreed to permanently close my account, subsequently allowed me to gamble again.

I believe Wazamba should be held accountable for explaining how my account became accessible again and whether its responsible gambling procedures were properly followed.

My requested resolution is a refund of approximately €1,300 in deposits made after my original permanent self-exclusion request.

I am able to provide the following evidence:

* Screenshots of my original request for permanent account closure due to gambling addiction.

* Written confirmation from Wazamba that my account had been permanently closed.

* The original support conversation showing that this was agreed upon.

* Payment records documenting the subsequent deposits.

* Additional correspondence with Wazamba regarding the permanent closure of my account.

I have already taken steps to exclude myself from other online gambling platforms, and I do not wish to gamble again. I am not requesting account reopening, bonuses, or any other gambling-related benefits.

I simply want a fair resolution and the return of the money deposited under these circumstances.

I sincerely hope this complaint can be investigated independently and that Wazamba will take responsibility for what happened.

Thank you for reviewing my case.

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.
