Dear koselapavlo,
Thank you for your response.
We understand that you are a Ukrainian national currently residing in Germany and therefore cannot provide a German national ID. However, the casino is entitled to verify both your identity and your current country of residence as part of its KYC procedures.
As a Ukrainian national residing in Germany, you should normally have documentation confirming your legal right to reside in the country, such as a residence permit, temporary protection document, visa, or another document issued by the relevant German authorities. From our understanding, this is the type of documentation the casino requires rather than necessarily a German national identity card.
Unfortunately, we cannot ask the casino to bypass its verification requirements or return a deposit that has already been used for betting solely because the required verification cannot currently be completed. We therefore recommend contacting the casino and asking which alternative document confirming your legal residence in Germany they can accept.
Since we have no grounds to request that the casino waive its reasonable KYC requirements or refund the already wagered deposit, we will now close this complaint.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,
Jean
