Bitz shouldn't have allowed a US player to gamble on their online casino. That's my opinion. But the US player should also not have been at the website at all. It was the player's responsibility to make sure of that. Since you inspected their terms in detail, you couldn't have missed point 3.4. that goes hand-in-hand with 3.3. I have already shared my feelings about Responsible Gambling guidelines and how ineffective and silly I think they are.
I am sorry, but my opinion hasn't changed. If you had won and Bitz refused to pay you your winnings because they didn't want to, I would have supported you and you would have me in your corner. However, that isn't the case here. You were looking for a specific service. That service was online gambling. You found what you were looking for in Bitz. They offered you the service to gamble online. You gambled and, sadly, you lost. That's it.
Again, if you are a true addict, I am sorry for you. I hope you will get control of your life and get the help you need.
What you’re advocating is the functional equivalent of jury nullification. Fortunately, in this matter, you’re not a juror. You’re just a guy (or gal) on the internet with a keyboard and a smartphone.
You’re discarding the governing terms and substituting your personal beliefs about what “should” matter. No mediator, regulator, or court evaluates disputes that way. They apply the rules as written to the facts as established. You openly reject responsible gaming obligations and self-exclusion policies that are part of the TOS as meaningless. That alone makes your view irrelevant in a dispute resolution context. Personal ideology never comes into play.
Pointing to alleged U.S. ineligibility doesn’t change that analysis. A term that the operator itself applies inconsistently or ignores does not excuse separate, affirmative violations of other written obligations. One breach does not nullify all others.
That approach might be tolerated in forum debate. It has zero value in any process that actually resolves disputes.
For the second time, I’m not here for empathy, concern, or life advice from an internet forum "legend". Everything is fine on my end. The issue is compliance with written obligations. Nothing else.
I posted in the ANN because I do value thoughtful opinions and analysis and I thought Bitz would keep their word about addressing player concerns regarding their casino. There is a limit. I don’t find value in feedback that dismisses the terms as written and replaces them with what someone thinks the terms should be.
Every land-based casino I’ve played at, from Wynn and Bellagio in Las Vegas to Casino Baden-Baden in Germany, has responsible gaming tools and offers self-exclusion. Every reputable major online casino does the same. Those systems exist because the industry, regulators, and licensors require them.
So your opinion that responsible gaming is “BS” is irrelevant. It carries no weight in the real world where these obligations are mandatory and enforced. Until you and others who share that view gain the power to abolish responsible gaming and self-exclusion entirely, the terms remain binding, and casinos are expected to follow them.
One final observation. In the past two weeks, you’ve posted in this topic repeatedly. Seven or eight replies by now. Guess how many replies
Bitz_Casino has made here. Zero. Despite multiple members directly calling for an explanation, Bitz has remained silent. Unlike you, they cannot defend themselves with rhetoric or personal opinion. Their silence speaks for itself.
Instead of addressing the issues raised here,
Bitz_Casino has spent its time flooding Trustpilot from December 17 to today with suspicious five-star reviews from first-time accounts and dodging AskGamblers and Casino Guru, apparently hoping the complaints close as unresolved so they can absorb a safety index and rating reduction and move on. That strategy says far more than any forum reply ever could.
Here is where both mediations currently stand.
Casino Guru has formally invited Bitz to respond. AskGamblers is still awaiting information from Bitz and has warned that continued non-response will result in the complaint being closed as unresolved with an associated ranking penalty.

Despite being invited by independent mediators whose role is to apply facts to written terms, Bitz has remained silent. In every other Casino Guru and AskGamblers complaint filed against Bitz, they responded. Their silence here stands out. It suggests they reply when they think they have a defensible position, and stay quiet when they don’t.
Thanks for the discourse. I don’t see much left to discuss. Given your style, I expect you’ll reply anyway, so I’ll give you the last word.
