Can i first of all start with saying i have exhausted all other avenues before posting on here.
So on the 12/6 i came across william hill casino signed up and deposited £200 played some roulette then went to deposit another £100 and my account was locked.
I was then notified that the reason the account was locked was due to a self exclusion a number of years ago.
I spoke to there live chat also sent emails to there second opinion team. To no avail.
Now they did refund the £100 as it was after that deposit the account was locked.
But there is a few factors to this genuine mistake.
The account should of been instantly locked surly to stop the original deposits happening.
There systems should of done this instantly.
They ran a check on my credit file as soon as i signed up so they knew my identity i knew i was clearly already self excluded so why wait until £200 was deposited seems unfair to me.
And equally this was a genuine mistake.
Anyway they have point blank refused to refund the other deposits but i think if they refund the 2 deposits surly the first deposits can be refunded as well. As i was already self excluded.
I used the same name and dob to sign up i might add. And equally they ran an identity check immediately which would of tallied up to who i was and the account should of been instantly blocked stopping any deposits.
Many thanks
