Ah. You think that the casino management wants you to win? They may want you to win but it’ll be just to win a little so you have the motivation to keep coming back and wasting money on them. Unless this is a feature offered by the platform, they cannot and will not freeze a customers account. Imagine if everyone stops losing, how then will they pay winners? And if it were a service offered by the management, I think that freezing your account can curb irresponsible gambling because it wouldn’t do any harm to freeze it and if it won’t do any harm then it could do good. Maybe the process of creating a new account will bore you out or maybe when the account gets frozen and you sit to think for some minutes, you could come back to your senses.

Really hard to believe that a gambling site would do the ff;
1. Stop or hinder players to make deposit
2. Make those limitations or exclusions
We do know and its just common sense that they would really be preferring with those type of gamblers on which they do become that impulsive
because this is where they would be making that huge profits or revenue into those gamblers who are impulsive as well.
This is why its not something that possible that we could see on this market as of this moment on which it is a bit impossible feature to have or
actions that they would be making.

I haven't heard of anything like this happening and I haven't heard of any gamblers having this experience. The casino is happy when a gambler keeps depositing into the casino, the casino has no interest in checking the user's account if the gambler loses money. However, if the gambler continues to win, the casino is interested in checking the user's account and the casino checks whether the gambler has broken any rules of the casino.
So the chances of something like this happening are very low. As a result it is a gambler's responsibility to control himself, the casino will never block the account of a losing gambler. Unless the gambler tells the casino to block his account.

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?
If its included into their terms and you havent been able to read up as a user then you cant really make out those complaints but if it wasnt included into their terms then you would really be that furious.For sure you would really be that making those scam accusations on such locked up on which i would really be definitely do the same. They dont have the rights on locking up your account due to successive deposits. Well its not that bad to have that kind of concern into their players and having that kind of approach on stopping them on too much
spending on gambling but it would be always that best that it should really be something to be asked or something that be announcing about on their plans about lock up
whether it is really just that fine or not or having those kind of alerts.

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.
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.

i don't know if the OP experienced such situation or just stating a hypothetical scenario. because i never heard a casino freezing their customer's account owed to excessive gambling. they actually like the idea that their player is spending money as much as they can. and that is true, they only freeze acct if the player violated one of their terms and not because the gambler is depositing money successively.
so for the OP, if he encountered such situation, there may be other underlying reasons why the casino resort to that action. not because they want to limit their players and stop their games for some reason.

I’ve never had a personal experience with this before but I believe it should work on some people. If they’re chronic addict it won’t do them any good since they can easily open a new account in a different site and resume their gambling activities.
But for a normal person who has only been using one site for gambling then they should be some hesitation unlike those who have multiple accounts in many sites.

Addicts do this all the time, I have seen some classic examples in this forum Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?
To some extent, it can help, especially when it comes to things like Revenge betting after making huge losses. One of the best ways to stop or reduce an addiction is to have a break or forced break. Also, from the legal point of view, the casino will be in a good position to defend itself against problem gamblers who might claim they were not helped fight the addiction or gamble responsibly.

Let me tell you the truth, gambling sites are happy to see you to always deposit money. They do not make any research about you and they do not care about the money that you are spending on gambling.
Does even freezing a customer's account curb irresponsible gambling or betting addiction?
No, it can not curb irresponsible gambling because the gambler can go to another gambling site and continue gambling.

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.
