Kære Casino Guru,
Tak for dit svar. Efter din anbefaling er denne sag blevet gennemgået endnu engang af casinoets compliance-afdeling og den øverste ledelse.
Efter en nøje gennemgang af den komplette kronologi over begivenhederne er den oprindelige beslutning blevet opretholdt.
Den 18. maj, flere dage før han afgav sin endelige erklæring, kontaktede spilleren vores supportteam og spurgte specifikt, hvad der ville ske, hvis han erklærede, at han led af ludomani, herunder om hans ventende udbetalingsanmodning stadig ville blive gennemført.
For at undgå at lave antagelser spurgte vores supportteam spilleren direkte, om han afgav en sådan erklæring. Spilleren svarede eksplicit:
"Jeg sagde ikke, at jeg er afhængig."
Derfor havde casinoet intet juridisk eller regulatorisk grundlag for at anvende restriktioner for ansvarligt spil på det tidspunkt. Foranstaltninger for ansvarligt spil kan ikke anvendes udelukkende baseret på antagelser eller hypotetiske spørgsmål.
Den 25. maj afgav spilleren en klar og utvetydig erklæring om, at han led af ludomani. I det øjeblik blev casinoet forpligtet til øjeblikkeligt at anvende sine procedurer for ansvarligt spil og compliance.
Denne tilgang er fuldt ud i overensstemmelse med casinoets offentliggjorte politikker. Politikken for ansvarligt spil kræver, at casinoet beskytter spillere ved straks at anvende foranstaltninger til ansvarligt spil, når der identificeres skade relateret til spil. Desuden angiver AML- og compliance-politikken udtrykkeligt, at kundeserviceinteraktioner er en del af den samlede compliance-vurdering, og den indeholder:
"Bitguruz vil blokere brugere, der er identificeret som værende afhængige af spil eller har psykiske problemer."
Samme dag indsendte spilleren en udbetalingsanmodning og afgav efterfølgende en eksplicit erklæring om ansvarligt spil. Før udbetalingsprocessen kunne gennemføres, trådte restriktionerne for ansvarligt spil i kraft.
Efter anvendelsen af denne begrænsning indefrøs systemet automatisk al økonomisk aktivitet på kontoen som en del af casinoets ramme for ansvarligt spil og compliance.
Casinoet traf ikke en skønsmæssig beslutning vedrørende spillerens udbetalingsanmodning. Da restriktionerne for ansvarligt spil trådte i kraft, fik kontoen status som beskyttet compliance. I henhold til casinoets procedurer for ansvarligt spil og compliance anvendes disse beskyttelsesforanstaltninger konsekvent på kontoen som helhed og tillader ikke, at individuelle kontoprocesser fortsætter, mens kontoen er underlagt en aktiv restriktion for ansvarligt spil.
Vi forstår fuldt ud Casino Gurus bekymring vedrørende spillerens saldo. Men da spilleren udtrykkeligt havde erklæret sig afhængig af spilleafhængighed, ophørte denne sag med at være en standardanmodning om udbetaling og blev en sag om ansvarligt spil og compliance. På det tidspunkt var casinoet forpligtet til at anvende sine beskyttelsesprocedurer konsekvent på hele kontoen i stedet for selektivt at fortsætte individuelle økonomiske operationer.
Efter omhyggeligt at have genovervejet sagen i lyset af Casino Gurus kommentarer, er casinoet fortsat overbevist om, at det har handlet i overensstemmelse med sine forpligtelser inden for ansvarligt spil, compliance og lovgivning. Den oprindelige beslutning forbliver derfor uændret.
Hvis Casino Guru har brug for yderligere dokumentation, herunder komplette chattransskriptioner, tidsstempler, udbetalingshistorik, interne kontooptegnelser eller compliance-logfiler, vil vi med glæde fremsende dem.

Dear Casino Guru,
Thank you for your response. Following your recommendation, this case has been reviewed once again by the Casino's Compliance Department and Senior Management.
After carefully reviewing the complete chronology of events, the original decision has been upheld.
On May 18, several days before making his final declaration, the player contacted our Support Team and specifically asked what would happen if he declared that he was suffering from gambling addiction, including whether his pending withdrawal request would still be completed.
To avoid making assumptions, our Support Team asked the player directly whether he was making such a declaration. The player explicitly replied:
"I didn't say I have addict."
Accordingly, the Casino had no legal or regulatory grounds to apply Responsible Gambling restrictions at that stage. Responsible Gambling measures cannot be applied based on assumptions or hypothetical questions alone.
On May 25, the player made a clear and unequivocal declaration that he was suffering from gambling addiction. At that moment, the Casino became obligated to immediately apply its Responsible Gambling and Compliance procedures.
This approach is fully consistent with the Casino's published policies. The Responsible Gambling Policy requires the Casino to protect players by immediately applying responsible gaming measures when gambling-related harm is identified. Furthermore, the AML & Compliance Policy expressly states that customer service interactions form part of the overall compliance assessment and provides:
"Bitguruz will block users who are identified as being addicted to gambling or having mental health issues."
On the same day, the player submitted a withdrawal request and subsequently made an explicit Responsible Gambling declaration. Before the withdrawal process could be completed, the Responsible Gambling restriction became effective.
Following the application of this restriction, the system automatically froze all financial activity on the account as part of the Casino's Responsible Gambling and Compliance framework.
The Casino did not make a discretionary decision regarding the player's withdrawal request. Once the Responsible Gambling restriction became effective, the account entered a protected compliance status. Under the Casino's Responsible Gambling and Compliance procedures, these protective measures are applied consistently to the account as a whole and do not allow individual account processes to continue while the account is subject to an active Responsible Gambling restriction.
We fully understand Casino Guru's concern regarding the player's balance. However, once the player made an explicit declaration of gambling addiction, this matter ceased to be a standard withdrawal request and became a Responsible Gambling and Compliance matter. At that stage, the Casino was required to apply its protective procedures consistently to the entire account rather than selectively continue individual financial operations.
Having carefully reconsidered the matter in light of Casino Guru's comments, the Casino remains satisfied that it acted consistently with its Responsible Gambling, Compliance, and regulatory obligations. Accordingly, the original decision remains unchanged.
Should Casino Guru require any additional documentation, including the complete chat transcripts, timestamps, withdrawal history, internal account records, or compliance logs, we will be pleased to provide them.
Kind regards,
Bitguruz Casino
Compliance Team
