Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling?

[Docnaster]

Yes, this might help irresponsible gamblers a little, but if the gambler doesn't get angry and instead registers at another casino because currently there are so many gambling sites that a person can register more than one account so if the casino freezes his account he can still gamble. on other sites so I think freezing a user's account is just as useless for gamblers who have no desire to be responsible gamblers and have difficulty stopping their gambling.

However, in my opinion, it is impossible for the casino to freeze its user's account just because they see the user continuing to gamble and continue to make deposits because I think the casino would definitely be happy if they saw their users continue to gamble, whether they are addicted or not, they don't want to know because that's what they want continuously. Continuous gambling certainly makes the casino make more and more profits.

I personally do not think that freezing the account of a gambler is a good way to curb his irresponsible gambling especially when the gambler is a chronic addict because he's definitely gonna look for alternative ways to satisfy his addiction which opening another account might just be his solution.
When a gambler is too irresponsible to control his gambling activities, the best thing to do by anyone who loves him is to either take him to rehabilitation center where he can't access any form of gambling or stop him from his irresponsibility through interactions and conversation that'll help stop irresponsible gambling

[the rise]

I think casino sites do not have the authority to freeze the accounts of their customers who are not suspected of cheating, in fact irresponsible gamblers will be more profitable for the casino site, because every business is of course more concerned with the profits of their business than concerned with the fate of other people

Also its unlikely for a casino to have those kind of behavior or decisions on completely stopping someone on making deposits on which it would really be something that they would really be loving
because this is where they could really be able to make money. It is really just that impossible that they would really be stopping on someone on doing so. It is really the best thing that they could really be having and they wont really be showing any concern or sympathy into those players who had been that impulsively making out those deposits or simply they do become that addicted.
You are really that making those reactions on the time that you would really be having those locked fund but if ever they would be doing so then they should be releasing those funds since
its an ethical way to do so.

[Saint-loup]

Yes I think it could help most people because it helps to step back and to get aware of what is going on. Sometimes you lose over and over and you reach one point where losing more money don't disturb you more because you don't realize what actual value it represents anymore and you need something from outside to stop you from chasing your losses.

[Fortify]

If suddenly you went on a binge-gambling out of a lack of self-control or something else. For example, you deposit money in rapid succession after a series of losses and the casino management freezes your account. And when you call their customer support, they tell you that your account has been frozen for 3 weeks and the reason why they carried out that measure was because they suspected that you were gambling irresponsibly and decided to take that measure so that you can call yourself back to order, will you feel furious, cuss out, sign out of your account and register on another casino and continue betting. Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?

People that deep into an addiction, or who may have fell into the deep end in a particularly bad session, are unlikely to see it as a good thing at the time. Nor would it necessarily stop them from gambling, if they are able to simply open an account at another company and start again. However it is definitely responsible behavior and should be encouraged by more gambling companies. You would imagine that most people have a certain baseline, where they might spend say $100 a week in regular play, so when someone starts dropping $1,000 or $10k in their account, it would make sense to question what has changed. Maybe just having some sort of automated mechanism like not allowing more than double your previous week's deposit, to stop erratic play like that.

[darkangel11]

How can they know how much money I have and if depositing fast after a loss means that I'm irresponsible?
I could be a millionaire, deposit $1k for fun to play blackjack while taking a shit, I lose, so I deposit 3k to bet more because $1k is nothing to me and they freeze my account. Of course I'm going to go somewhere else and when they unfreeze me I'll withdraw and they'll never see me again. They should establish what I'm doing, maybe I'm losing the money because I treat it like dust?
Depositing $100 and losing 3 times in a row can be a big thing for someone from Nigeria, but a fun evening with no regrets for a player from Norway.

If the casino has this on their term of service then there's nothing you can do you sign up for this, the casino has their parameters on why they freeze your account, so you have no choice, complaining will do you no good, so you have the option to play on other casinos, many players have account on many casinos so in case this things happen they always have the option to continue playing.

Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?

No, it will not, gamblers always have a way to continue gambling, and many of them know that this could happen so they have alternative casinos to play, gamblers will play if they want to play as long as they have the time and the money, its not the casinos' rules that will make them stop to gamble, even if you ban them.

In my opinion, casinos certainly have certain requirements and also good service because the aim is to make players feel comfortable gambling in the casino because the goal is profit, if the gamblers are comfortable they will get benefits from gamblers who are comfortable gambling in the casino. and I think that if a casino freezes a gambler's account, there may be a certain reason, although I have experienced it, I think it's because they don't want to experience a loss, where they froze my account because I had a pretty big win.

I agree with you, gamblers will always have a certain way to gamble, especially if they are addicted, they will do anything to be able to gamble again. In fact, I think that when they run out of money they will always have a way to continue gambling, including things that are beyond common sense, such as selling the property they own or even stealing. This could happen if they are addicted to gambling and are at the point of running out of money or capital to gamble.

In this situation, the poorest must be very careful. Proportionally, he is investing a lot. So he should be cautious and invest what he can afford to lose. Basically, one will have to be careful and the other will have to be patient.

Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?

Not at all!
First of all, a casino would never freeze a user's account just because they find out that the user is gambling irresponsibly. They wouldn't even notice as long as the user is constantly losing because the money is theirs to keep in that case, they would only freeze an account if the user constantly wins which makes them act quickly so that the user can't win more.

Even if they do it, just in case, a gambler can always go to a different platform and start gambling there, as you said. All they would need is to create an account which is extremely easy in cryptocurrency casinos, and then they can make a deposit and start gambling immediately without any restrictions or anything.

[Z390]

A casino will never freeze your account because you are losing money, that is not making sense, I believe they want you to keep gambling and keep losing money, it's better income stream for them than you, if a casino freeze your account it's for another reason, not this one.
Also even if they do this to help their customer, it won't be effective because the customer is probably gambling with what he can afford to lose, so who are you to say that they are gambling irresponsibly? The person will get mad and quite using the casino and find a better alternative.

It takes few minutes to register and sign up on a online casino, it's not that hard, and the old casino just lost a customer, let's stop dreaming, there is no online casino that wishes to lose customer, if you are addicted to gambling it's your problem, they are not in position to curb gambling addiction for anyone.

There is a casino in the city where I live, yes, they are legal here. And I know that they always require a passport at the entrance to make sure that you are already 18 years old. But besides that, the guard at the entrance also controls the list that he has. This list contains players who will not be allowed into the casino because either they or their relatives so wished. This is a kind of lockdown. But I think that this does not help, because the player can always go to another casino. And in the end, he can always leave to play at an online casino, and there are a lot of them.

That's correct they most likely wouldn't do it because they want you to spend your money. They are not a charity and they aren't going to protect you if you don't protect yourself.
This means that you can have almost any pattern of financing your habit and you can be losing 90% of your games and they'll still let you play there.

Some f you don't understand that often you don't lose money to the casino but to other players, like when you play at a poker or blackjack table. Usually someone wins and your money goes to that person. THe casino has its fees and it makes money on that, so it doesn't care if you win or lose, as it will always make some money as long as you keep playing.
It's a bit different when you play against the house, but we're talking about casinos in general here and in general you have higher chance of being banned when you're lucky than the other way round.

I agree. It makes no sense for the casino to block the flow of money that keeps it active. Because without customers they have no reason to be open. Furthermore, they can help the customer in a more direct way that would solve the problem once and for all.

Yes it doesnt really make any sense on this regard on which they would really be trying to cut it off their main source of income or revenue on which we know that as long the user wont really be having no complaints or issues on the platform then they wont really be tending on having those kind of blocking or whatsoever. House wont really be that be in concern about their customers condition or would really be that trying out to be that trying out to engage on personal things like on how they should be spending up their money. Its true that it doesnt have any sense that you would really be
stopping those people on spending via blocking their account because once you do then they would really be just simply creating another one.

[Iroh]

I don’t think a scenario like you one in the OP could ever play out. A casino caring so much about a gambler that they restrict the account of the gambler so there would not be any more deposits and the person would not be able to continue playing.
I believe a more likely scenario would be the casino suspending his account for some other legit reason and not cause they’re enforcing responsibility amongst their customers. More like, You’re above 18 and should be old enough to make decisions. If you choose to be irresponsible, they’re probably not going to stop you.

[shasan]

As far as I know, casinos only freeze an account if the gambler has broken the platform's rules, or if he asks for being freezed. The casino itself won't decide what is irresponsible gambling based on subjective factors and clues. If the gambler is constantly making new deposits and losing money, it's not a concern of the casino at all, unless the gambler contacts their support and tell them he is having difficulties to stop playing, so he can demand his account to be freezed. Then I believe it's an obligation for the casino to do so, otherwise it can be considered the casino is taking advantage of a vulnerable individual, in case the gambler takes further action in the court against the platform.

The gambling site may close the account if the site has no automated free option for responsible gambling and few sites might have an automated option which their site may use to stop gambling as the person may think if the account can be live then the user may play again and again which may turn into more loss.

In short, it's always good to play in moderation and see your limits. Bet what you can afford to lose and have fun responsibly. Otherwise, the user may have health complications, etc. And it's bad for everyone.

No casino or gambling site will ever close down or freezes a customer account from excessive gambling because it is to their advantage since the house is only the winner in this. The only time aside which they freezes your account is when they notice something suspicious like you breaking the rules or you are signing into the account from various devices and the signee is initiating a withdrawal.they halt everything just to secure your funds.

Gambling sites would love that there is more and more wagering on their sites and this will give more profits to those sites as the majority of the people will lose in gambling and all the losing money goes to the gambling sites. Since we hardly find any P2P gambling model, the losing money from the gambler is actually a winning money for the gambling casino owner or site.

The only thing have heard and seems logical is that casinos will send you newsletters or advice on how to over come too much loses and we all know all this too is to keep you with them having that belief of winning and nothing more.

Yes, this is just a formality from them that they care about the gamblers. They know that the gamblers hardly read these emails and golden points mentioned on these emails. Even most of the gamblers do not read the terms and conditions mentioned on the gambling sites (which is wrong on the part of gambler).

Easy to say but when you are on such situation or condition then you would definitely be finding this to be a tough situation.Only a few could be able to mind themselves that they are spending too much and the rest would really be failing on doing so and would really be continuing on what they are doing just because they do have those kind of thoughts that they could really be winners in the end of the day.Well, people wont really be making out those kind of realizations until they would really be able to experience those unfortunate events and this is why its not really shocking
that there are people who do keep on whining and crying on the time that they had experienced those tough situations in regarding to this.

The situation you are surviving only know by yourself,because the gamblers who loss the funds get into the biggest depression stage.The gamblers who get into the deepest depression will become a gambling addicted person most of the time.The end is not know by the gamblers at the beginning,So he will keep play for the good results.When the gamblers keep increasing their initial dollars,he will get some ego towards the gambling site.It must be avoided by the gamblers,because that ego will increase your self confidence.The final result will be the gamblers will double their betting money for each bet which is the risky one which leads to big loss.
