Withdrawals restricted on account


Hello AskGamblers, on 20/10 I attempted to withdraw funds on my gaming account and I came across an error "Your account is restricted", I decided to contact live chat to know more details and they stalled me for like 30 minutes before telling me to wait a few hours for an email response. Such a response never arrived. I tested deposits, and they work fine; it's just withdrawals that are restricted on my account. I want to know why Wazamba made this decision on my account and what I did wrong to prevent me from withdrawing money, but there is no casino investigation, no answer from the casino, and nothing from the casino, which is why I resorted to filing this complaint. Here is the further evidence. As you can see, I asked about any investigation and the support gave me an automated answer saying, "Your withdrawal is on its way," When I don't even have a withdrawal pending.

I sincerely hope you can reconsider opening my complaint. Thank you for reading and best wishes/regards to all the Askgamblers complaint team.

Hello again, my account was locked 2 days ago, I have always played in good faith and tried my best to follow the casino's t&c, though I was never informed of any terms violation, if the casino believes I broke the rules, the normal procedure should have been my account getting closed, instead they silently restricted my withdrawals, allowing me to deposit for a period of time which only the casino knows, since I was never notified of when the restriction began.

I think it's very unfair to block an user's withdrawals while still allowing them to deposit. Under logic, all deposits made after the withdrawal restriction should be refunded then, thank you.

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.
