Self exclusion policy breach
I am reaching out for help regarding a self-exclusion breach that resulted in $8021CAD lost. I tried to resolve this directly with them, but they have misrepresented factual evidence in their investigation and have stated I am not entitled to a refund of any kind. I can prove without a reasonable doubt that my account was left open and the financial harm was caused by not self-excluding my account in a reasonable time frame.
I am primarily seeking full reimbursement of the $8021CAD and secondarily an apology from the Casino for the way this has been handled.
The following took place:
1. July 21st: I requested self exclusion via email from Bassbet due to gambling addiction and account closure in writing
2. July 21st: The same day they came back confirming they received the request and asked me to confirm cancellation.
3. July 22nd: In writing I confirmed to please close the account.
4. July 23rd: They did not close the account and instead opened a manual promotion ticket to offer me free spins to come back. I'm an addict so I fought it for days and then caved and gambled.
5. July 29th: I asked again for them to self-exclude the account and received no follow-up.
6. July 29th - Aug 28th: I continued to gamble (because again I'm an addict) and deposited $8021 net withdrawals.
7. Late August (I believe the 22nd): I used their chat support to again ask for self exclusion to which they stated I need to email VIP (not what their policy states). Which caused more resistance and of course kept me gambling.
8. August 28th: I emailed stating they failed to act on a self-exclusion request and it resulted in financial harm & asked them to again close the account and self-exclude. They immediately acknowledged and FINALLY self-excluded the account.
Since opening the case with them, I followed every single request to the very detail including screen recordings of my inbox and mass amounts of screenshots. I have compiled everything into an evidence log for your deeper review attached & I have added screenshots with highlighted dates of my requests and their account closure for easier review.
Despite the very clear timeline, Bassbet responded to me today claiming they "closed the account on July 29th when gambling addiction was mentioned" - you will see from the screenshots attached of my requests & their email confirmation of account closure, that they did NOT close the account until August 29th, 2025.
I also want to note that July was a month where I took the time to self-exclude from EVERY casino because I knew I needed help & this was the ONLY casino to fail to protect safe gambling rights.
I'm hopeful your team can help me resolve this matter.
Thanks,
Jessica
