I made several deposits without problem and some withdrawals all in less than 24 hours as they say they do. The last withdrawal of 2615 euros is not made in 24 hours, contact them and they say it is due to suspicious activity and that I write to an email. I wrote to them and see what they say.

Dear Alex,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please understand that it is a common procedure for casinos to audit players’ accounts. From our experience it may take 14 days, but every casino is different and has its own procedure which needs to be followed.

We are left with no other option now just to wait for the casino to complete their additional verification. I will set the timer for 7 days and check back with you at the beginning of next week. I wish I could be of more help. Thank you in advance for your patience.

Best regards,

Petronela

They told me to send them verification documents, I sent them and this is their response (translated from English):


Hi!


We get acquainted with the latest relevant letter.


Photographic image of a bank card is accepted for consideration.


You will receive an email within 14 days based on the results of the verification of your gaming account (the maximum response time, if additional verifications are necessary, can reach 30 days from the date of the request).


Sincerely!


Now I already have € 3,200 in the account and I cannot withdraw them until they verify, I will not bet more until they verify my account. If they don't, can I report them and get my money back being a house without a license in Spain? I find it wrong that they let deposit so easy and then these problems to withdraw, up to 1 month to verify an account ...

I saw that one of his rules is this, which is scary to me:


We reserve the right to withhold any refund or reverse transaction until the identity of the player's account user is properly established to our satisfaction. You agree to provide, in case of our demand, a notarized identification or any other certified identification in accordance with the applicable laws of the player's jurisdiction. If such notarized or certified identification is not provided within five (5) days of our request, then such refund or reverse transaction will not take place, your player account will be closed, and you will lose all funds in your player account, said The decision must be final, binding and not subject to appeal.


It also says that they do not accept players from Spain among other countries, although I asked in the chat and they told me that that's why I deposited and bet there. I asked again now and they told me again that they accept from Spain.


How long do you think I should wait to report them? Can you report and go to trial with this type of unlicensed bookmakers in Spain? Do you think they lengthen the verification time so that I lose my money? Greetings and thank you. I'm very worried.

Thank you very much, Alex, for your reply. I have checked general terms and conditions, and this is what found https://1win.pro/rules.html#20:

"9.4. Due to the legal reasons we do not accept any Clients from the following countries:

9.4.1. Absolute Restriction. No customers will be accepted from the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Spain, France and Italy."

 

Since there is a possibility to register an account from a restricted country (see the screenshot below) and deposit funds, I would like you to confirm that you’ve submitted correct data and haven’t used a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to alter your location, when opening the account.

Your confirmation is essential for this case and I’m not asking this to get you in trouble, I’m just trying to understand how the casino handles its own rules. Thank you in advance for your reply.


Meanwhile, I would like to emphasize a very important fact from our Fair Gambling Codex: 

https://casino.guru/fair-gambling-codex-for-casinos#restricted-countries

"The right thing to do is to check for restricted countries during the account creation process, and to not allow players from restricted countries to register and play. If the casino knows about restricted countries and also knows the player's country of residence, it's not a big issue to enforce this rule.

If the casino allows a player from a restricted country to play because it hasn't implemented this check, it should accept that it was the casino's mistake and pay out all winnings to the player despite the fact that they shouldn't have been allowed to play in the first place, provided that the player hasn't done anything else that's against the rules."

Hello Alex.

In this situation, the best would be to wait until the casino finished the security check. These checks are standard procedure, and you don't need to panic. Please cooperate with the casino fully. Also please note that in these checks also time matter and that's why try to provide to them all the necessary documents as soon as possible.

I would recommend taking screenshots of the communication with the casino. (just for sure)
