Hi sardapoor1963,
Firstly, I want to highlight that not only do we have this group of operators blacklisted with this service, but they engaged practices that likely cost this service significant thousands in profit from historic referrals. We have little in the way of reason to be sympathetic to this group.
That said, what you sent over is both totally inadequate to demonstrate any form of dishonest practice and demonstrates that far from your banning being improper, it is entirely justified. The blunt truth is that your communications to the operator - ranging from abusive to threatening the chat rep's life - are potentially criminal in nature and if they operator has not filed a report with their local police I'd be a little surprised. The operator were not only justified, but entirely correct to close your account at this point from both the perspective of protecting their staff from abuse and engaging appropriate limitations on a player who had very clearly experienced a severely negative emotional experience gambling and as such should be limited for their own protection.
I will again direct you to BetBlocker. It allows users to restrict their internet capable devices from accessing over 12k gambling operator websites for between 24 hours and 5 years.
This is not a matter we can assist you with.
