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

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Lol, this is funny because there is no gambling site or casino that will do such a thing, so do not give it too much thought. I feel they always designed the system in such a way that it's automatically taking records of winning and losing; they don't design it in such a way that it will kick out anyone who is losing more and also depositing constantly. Like someone already said in the comments above, casinos even happy to see more losses because it's a business where their profit lies in the number of losses made by customers. If that is the case, why would they freeze customers  accounts?Or do they not want to make a profit? I don't think this can be possible, but if I experience such, I will just move on to another casino, no stress.

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?

That's not making sense. No casino will freeze an account for irresponsible gambling.

In the first place, how can they even determine that there's irresponsible gambling that's happening on the way? Just because of continuous deposit and then all of those will lose? They are business. Continuous deposit from their users is an advantage. Why should they freeze an account because of that? If a casino will do that, they will just giving the reason for their customers to leave their platform.

I will be glad if there's a casino with that feature. Giving their gambler at least a bit of help in terms of moderate gambling. On the other hand though, isn't it a benefit for casinos if users will keep on depositing money? Gambling responsibly is on the gambler's hand, not on the gambling site itself.

If they freeze the account of that user because of that, they might lose customers. What if they freeze the account of a user who will fall into that category but in reality, that gambler is still in responsible behavior. It might annoyed their customers.

First no casino/ gambling site will freeze a customer account because of excessive gambling or even rapid deposits pf large funds,  so for that you have to know that casinos are out for business and they run the business with those deposits and loses,  so they will never block you account and even those that have the self excluding features,  will not even function at it full rate.

So for that gambling casinos that block player account do that because the have other motive towards they gambling lifestyle such as freezing players' accounts only when they win big amount and not allowing them to access the account and taking the balance off the account balance.

it's the first time I heard a story like this, if this happened to me, Of course, I would go to another casino and playing there. As far as I know, they have no right to regulate our life, whatever the situation and condition, like addiction or irresponsible gambling, all that situation is under our control, not by another person who doesn't have regulation to manage our life. We play with our own money, so whatever the situation, lost or won, we have the right to do as we please.

[Hispo]

Well. In the first place, I don't think there is an actual and accurate enough way for the casino staff to guess whether you would be being irresponsible with your money while gambling, even if they ask your your personal information when you register in their casino they normally won't ask for proof or origins of funds, a letter or job or a bank statement on your savings, so the casino does not have idea on how much money you manage in the real life.
If one of their gamblers started to have a series of losses and continued to depositing into the casino, there is no way for the staff to assume that person has a big or a small salary, they could even believe that gambler is rich and there is no problem. that is the main reason most of the self-exclusion programs are voluntary.
Also, I agree that a gambler who is addicted can always sign up in a different casino and continue to gamble, though, self-excluding from many webpages at the same time could indeed make more difficult for the problem gambler to continue to spend as much money as usually does and help a bit with his recovery, at least that is how it is supposed to work in the theory, in the practice it is harder for it to happen.

I think it will never happen because casinos don't care about their users' gambling addiction. They do include links to responsible gambling services which are usually at the bottom of the site but casinos are a business and the more people deposit the more they profit, they don't care where your money comes from.

But if any casino cares about the addiction of its users then that's great, maybe the casino can limit how much $ can be deposited in a day. Unfortunately, this is not possible and hoping for something like that is just a utopia. Responsibility and gambling addiction is our own responsibility as users, casinos will not help with anything

[Pumared]

The answer to this question is mostly likely not.  It comes down to the age old saying "if there's a will, there's a way".  People that addicted to gambling are going to find ways to gamble no matter what.  If their accounts are frozen they'll simply open new ones (maybe us a VPN) or just go to different gambling outlets.  Let's say they magically got banned from using the internet, then they'd just find places IRL offline.

The process to stop playing needs to come from the user himself. Forcibly removing it will not help at all. I believe that going out little by little or even playing less frequently will help reduce this desire to gamble.

[Nrcewker]

This is just bullshit. I mean it’s my own money. I can do whatever I want with it. I can frequently gamble or don’t gamble at all, that’s upto me. Now how come a casino can interfere with this. If any casino blocks you by stating this, then it’s better to change the casino. This is purely beyond the ethics. We should always avoid these types of casinos, if we guys love our hard earned money. I am completely against this.

[zuzie]

So far, I have never heard of a gambling account being frozen because the gambler did not have good responsibilities.
However, in my opinion, it is impossible for a gambling account to be frozen because of a small mistake he made, but if he continues to violate the rules on the gambling platform, it is possible that a freeze will occur.
Maybe for gamblers who are already addicted, if this happens to them, I think they will definitely do a lot of things to be able to gamble again, such as creating a new account for example, and for ordinary gamblers maybe this will make them sad. and angry and maybe they don't want to play. gambled again because he felt annoyed.

[CODE200]

I don't think so because they can just create a new account or maybe worse, find another website or casino to play thus losing you a customer. When it comes to this kind of things though, I feel like as a businessman, it's a good idea to not interfere with this people because you're making the most out of these people anyway, you're already in a soulless and deprave business model, why have a heart to stop your customers from gambling their life savings, didn't stop a lot of you from take their money away normally right so why now? To pretend that you care? I don't think that's good for the casino's image, the best thing that someone should do in this situation is that they should just improve their services and amenities to this irresponsible individual so at the very least they're having the time of their life while wasting their finances in your casino.

[Fundamentals Of]

If that happens all of a sudden in the middle of me very excited and badly wanting to play, I might indeed feel furious, create a support ticket, and probably cuss and cuss them out in my head. But if I am already aware that I have this difficult challenge to stop myself from gambling even if I want to, I think I will be grateful to them instead for finding a way to force me to stop. And since my funds are already locked, opening another account may be pointless. The urge to gamble might significantly subside because of it.

This cannot change anything regarding gambling addiction. It is obvious you've never been addicted to gambling before or seen someone that have been addicted before. A gambling addict has no control over his actions and can't help it.

If the account of gambling addict is frozen for whatever reason it may be, it is a matter of creating new account in another casino or even playing physical casino. The options are just numerous besides, most casinos do not require KYC.

Stopping gambling addiction must come from the determination of the gambler after being convinced that he is going about gambling the wrong way.

That's one way to look at things and make it so much bleaker than it already is although I do agree with it that if you're a business that's all profit then you should probably detach yourself from feelings with your customers, their suffering is what's making you thrive so why be too adamant at stopping them from gambling right? For me though, I think that it does kind of help some irresponsible gamblers because a little pause in your gambling can help you get things into perspective and see that you've been playing for a really long time, I do get the sympathy part if you look at it, you're the one that's losing on this one so even if it does help, it's going to be problematic for you financially.

It can be frustrating but I think it's a preventive measure and to encourage self-reflection. It will be a wake-up call to reassess gambling habits, especially gamblers who impulsively register with another casino. Seeking help and support to control gambling behavior.

But in reality, there's no casino, either physically or online, that does this. In sad reality, it's a favour for them that someone will become irresponsible in gambling as they are the ones that will benefit from it, and also, there are more casinos that are taking advantage of this kind of gambler. The only ones that will control them are themselves. If they can't be responsible with their gambling, then it's their own problem. If there is a casino that has a policy, then they will be popular, but in reality, there will be no casino that has those features.

Its rare for those casinos to advise their customers about responsible gambling because having a concern for their customers or gamblers can be a very good sign that they are in good hands, but mostly casinos focus more on advertising to attract more customers by offering free spins or free funds to gamble.

Casinos freeze their customers' accounts for their own interests, such as when users break rules, or deposit from suspicious sources, etc. I don't think there are any casinos that will freeze the user's account for a series of losses. Moreover, I don't think there will be any benefit in doing this because there are thousands of websites available for gambling, he will go somewhere else for gambling.
Moreover, I think that if a person can afford a series of losses, then I don't see anything bad there. And the main thing is that if the casino applies this rule to the system, then how they will know that how much funds a person can afford? Because his affordability depends on whether he is gambling irresponsibly. So I don't think account freezing is a good way to prevent irresponsible gambling

Point of order, casino platform can not freeze your account due to you are gambling irresponsibly, their is something that matters in gambling and it neither you don't abide on the rules and regulations of gambling in that gambling platform that will make them to freeze your account, when account is being freeze in particular gambling platform know that such account have committed offence because before you start gambling in gambling platform you are supposed to read tye rules and regulations of the platform and understand it before you fund your account, some people do not understand the terms and conditions of casino gambling platform before they kick off, so that is why they do freeze some of them account.

I've never heard of a casino freezing a customer's account for depositing money consecutively.

What if it's a rich person who puts in a large amount of money is it not self-control? Here the casino will not be responsible and will not restrain anyone because their deposits only have rules where when violating the rules the account will be frozen.

So here the casino does not have full control over the customer's responsibility, so it comes back to the individual whether they are able to gamble responsibly or not.

[Ultegra134]

That's a good one; good luck with that. Casinos don't actually care if you even lose all your savings gambling; they take no action over "responsible gambling." They're money-making businesses; it's no place for emotions. They're there, so you'll gamble; your lack of self-control isn't their problem. They'll only freeze your account if you ask them to, or when we're talking about a possible TOS violation. Otherwise, don't expect them to save you from your troubles; even if they actually cared, you can simply create a new account with a VPN in no time.
