I registered over a year ago and never made a bet because I went abroad and couldn't access the account. Upon my return, I requested assistance with my game account and received no collaboration or responses about my account. They asked me for documents via email for withdrawal and I continued sending them, but each time I received conflicting instructions. One time, they would say it's not good; another time, they'd say I need to write to them from my main email. It's all very confusing.

Please help me if you can.

Dear babbuinopio, 

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. 

Please understand that KYC is a very important and essential process, during which the casino makes sure that the money is sent to the rightful owner. As they don't have the luxury of being able to physically see all of the players and check their identification and documents, this is the only way gambling establishments are able to complete the verification procedures. None of the serious and licensed casinos takes KYC lightly and it might take a few working days to complete this thorough process. 

Could you please advise which documents you have already provided and when exactly did you send the last one? Have you provided all the required documents as soon as possible and in the correct format? 

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply. 

Best regards, 

Veronika

I provided the photo of the credit card used and the identity card and the proof of the iban, the casino now replies to my email that I have to write to him from another email when I changed my email a month ago, I can't communicate correctly with him there is no clear line of speech but only confusion, copy and paste answers from the casino, and my funds blocked for a lifetime

sometimes they reply to me other times they tell me that I have to write to them from my main email when I requested the change by sending a lot of data more than two months ago, they don't collaborate they don't look at the documents they always send me the usual copy and paste replies, it's completely impossible to overcome a check kwc in these conditions

Have you tried changing your email address directly in the account as advised in the email from the casino? Have you also sent them all your identity documents in the correct format and on time? Please keep us updated.

but if I've been sending you requests to change email from the new email for 3 months, why do you think I'm doing it? How can I unblock my gaming account if they don't cooperate at all and ignore my emails?

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

oh well.... this situation has been repeating itself for months, they don't respond, they completely ignore the emails every now and then they pop up and respond to you in the same way they responded to you weeks before.... completely useless, inefficient and shameful assistance for a large company like theirs, how do they get the maximum score and then I see many complaints and many people with problems on this site

I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly but had no success. I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from its side. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email. In the meantime, I recommend you contact the Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli (You must first download the relevant document and complete the complaints and suggestions form. The form should then be submitted to Giochi.reclami.online@aams.it) and submit a complaint to them. The Gaming Authority has more options and tools to help players. Please let me know if you need help with submitting the complaint or how they responded if you can do it on your own (peter.c@casino.guru). I am sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Peter
