Hello,

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 take KYC lightly.

  • Have you provided all the required documents as soon as possible and in the correct format?
  • Have you made sure to provide bank statements instead of screenshots to the casino?
  • Are there any obstacles why you can't provide the documents under the specific requirements?

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

Best regards,

Tomas


Important Notice: Casino.Guru will never ask you to make payments or grant access to your accounts in order to complete KYC on your behalf. If anyone claims to be from Casino.Guru and requests such information, do not share anything with them.

All communication from us will be through this official complaint thread or the official email addresses provided in your case. Please always check the domain of any email you receive and verify that it truly comes from us. You can confirm this by clicking on your complaint resolver’s profile.

Thank you guys for looking into this for me.  I was always verified in the past for many years at 888casino and withdrawing never had any issues. It was until recently where i have $19420 pending where they asked for documents once again out of no where.


List of things I have provided that have passed recently :


I provided proof of ownership for 3 DIFFERENT credit cards +

Proof of ownership for interact e-transfer (by showing bank statements + screenshots of transaction leaving my bank) ,

and even my 3 months worth of pay stubs from my employer.  <-- these above are were all accepted.


Prior to this I have already verified my identity with my passport and had no withdraw issues.


(the vip account manager is hinting they want to make sure I'm playing within my means, However this shouldn't matter on paying me out my $19420 because I provided proof of ownership for all my payments I have done (none of the transactions are fraudaulant)


The current status is them asking for my 3 months bank statement that is linked to my payroll. (sure if you think I'm not playing within my gambling limits, a least just pay me the money I won and I wont play there again.)
