Gomblingo Casino - Anmodning om lukning af spillerens konto ignoreres.

Despite repeated requests and threats of legal action, the casino has not complied with my request to close my player account.

I keep getting asked why. I've already said often enough that I no longer enjoy gambling and most recently mentioned that I'm afraid of developing a gambling addiction. Even after pointing out the German data protection law, my request to delete my account and personal data has been ignored.

Instead, numerous offers of free spins or bonuses are brazenly used to keep the potentially addicted player hooked.

Das Casino kommt nach mehrfacher Aufforderung und Androhungen von rechtlichen Schritten nicht der Aufforderung nach, mein Spielerkonto zu schließen.

Es wird immer wieder nach dem Grund gefragt. Ich habe schon häufig genug gesagt, dass ich keine Lust mehr aufs spielen habe und zuletzt erwähnt, dass die Angst zur Entwicklung einer Spielsucht besteht. Auch nach Hinweis auf das deutsche Datenschutzgesetz, wurde der Aufforderung zur Löschung meines Kontos und Personenbezogener Daten nicht nachgekommen.

Stattdessen wird mit etlichen Angeboten zu Freispielen oder Boni noch dreister Weise daran festgehalten, den potentiell süchtigen Spieler bei der Angel zu halten.

Do You Have a Gambling Problem?

If you feel you may have a problem with gambling, consider the following questions:

Have others ever criticized your gambling?

Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of money or time you have spent gambling?

Do arguments, frustrations, or disappointments make you want to gamble?

Do you gamble alone for long periods?

Do you stay away from work, college, or school to gamble?

Do you gamble to escape from a boring or unhappy life?

Are you reluctant to spend 'gambling money' on anything else?

Have you lost interest in your family, friends, or pastimes due to gambling?

After losing, do you feel you must try to win back your losses as soon as possible?

When gambling and you run out of money, do you feel lost and desperate, needing to gamble again immediately?

Do you gamble until your last Euro is gone?

Have you lied, stolen, or borrowed just to get money to gamble or to pay gambling debts?

Do you feel depressed or even suicidal because of your gambling?

Answering "yes" to one or more of these questions may indicate a gambling problem, and you may wish to seek help through the channels listed above.

I have reviewed your request sent to support@gomblingo.com. Please note there is another support email: customercare@gomblingo.com.

• Have you tried contacting the casino via this address as well?

It is important to clearly inform the casino about your gambling problem. To ensure the casino processes your request correctly, please clearly state in your email that you wish to close your account due to a gambling-related issue, using key phrases such as "gambling problem," "problem gambling," "gambling addiction," "gambling issue," "pathological gambling," "compulsive gambling," "ludomania," "ludopathy," or "addiction-related struggles," and, if relevant, include context-sensitive wording like "suicidal thoughts," "mental health impacts," "loss of control," "inability to control," or "urgent need for help."

Using clear wording will help ensure the casino triggers the proper responsible gambling procedures and processes your request quickly. If you have not explicitly mentioned your gambling addiction in your previous request, I kindly recommend that you resend your email with a clearer statement regarding your situation.

Thank you very much in advance, and hope we can resolve your issue promptly.

Best regards,

Petra
