BGO - account closure

Ruling

Found for the Casino - When asked to provide further information about when the player told BGO about their gambling problem the player became non-responsive.

Read our BGO Casino Review.

Player's Complaint

I'd contacted the site for closure, they ignored my message and left the account open, also emailing me offers, i finally contacted and had to be personal and say i was a gambling addict and finally got it closed after losing 100s of pounds on the site, very sloppy on their behalf ignoring messages and never any live chat.

Hi perker1989 - welcome to ThePOGG.com!

Before going further I need to ask you to be clear about when you informed BGO about your gambling problem.

Standard account closure requests are free to be actioned or not as the operator sees appropriate. Even where they are actioned, the player is still free to ask for the account to be re-opened at any time and the operator can do so with immediate effect.

The only point were an operator are responsible to close an account and take responsibility for not allowing a player access is where there is clear reason to establish that the player is struggling to control their own gambling activity.

So the question I need you to answer is did BGO ignore your closure request after the point where you made clear that the reason for the request was gambling addiction?

I'd also recommend you look at our Responsible Gambling page where you can find lots of tools and groups to assist you.

Thanks,

ThePOGG

Hi perker1989,

If we haven't heard from you by Friday the 1st of September I'll assume you no longer want our assistance and close this complaint.

Thanks,
