Player's Complaint

I have a gambling problem and sadly just as I was getting sorted along came the above casinos. I have lodged complaints with all of them because i believe they are one of the same.

I complained firstly to Parklane and was contacted by Napoli Casino, which seems odd, I have recovered money from them but I had to sign a contract stating I would not convey what they have done to anyone, I am still waiting for the funds to reach my account, which they advise will be in 5 days. Having to sign a contract of this nature raised my suspicions. I went on to find 6Black and was surprised at how similar the design of the site was and indeed the Live help, which was not brilliant. I had asked them to Self Exclude me, which I find interesting was not easy to do on the site, as with Parklane. I then decided to contact Parklane again to ask if 6Black was a sister site as I would like to be Self Excluded from any other sites they owned. I was assured they had not connection with 6Black.

Interestingly, in they must be sharing my email because I have been getting emails advising of new casinos, lo and behold I then signed up to Timessquare Casino. Again the play was unfair and I have lost even more money.

I am appalled this kind of thing is allowed to be happening. Any person trying to control a Gambling issue should not be allowed to sign up for what appears to me to be the same company or companies.

I have read your reviews with interest, wish i had read them before. I am desperately trying to rid myself of the gambling beast and tend to sign up and ask for a Self Exclusion. but the sites looked very attractive and lots of flashing busy lights, a gamblers worst nightmare.

I know I am to blame for even signing up but I do find it very upsetting they can have virtually the same sites and not be in each others pockets. These people need to be STOPPED before more people are affected by them. I am in the process of getting help now but I feel I should get compensation for the money I have spent in these casinos, if they are of the same.

I have written to 6Black who said they would be in touch, I have written to them again today asking why I had not heard from them. The same issue with all, you have to contact them to Self Exclude and they take a while to do this. I have expressed my dissatisfaction at this as it cost me even more money when I went back to 6Black to check and they had not excluded me, so went on to spend another £300+, I have also written today to Timessquare to be Self Excluded but as of yet I have heard nothing back.

this is all so wrong and I hope you can help

many thanks, I would rather not write this in a forum as no one in my family or friends know I have this issue. It has cost me alot of money and maybe being ripped off by unscrupulous casinos is what I need to stop me permanently.

kind regards [EDIT]
