Bruce Bet Casino - Player’s withdrawal is delayed due to verification issues.

Closed
Our verdict

Player stopped responding

Amount: €12,800

Bruce Bet Casino
Safety Index:Very low

Case summary

The player from Germany faced challenges in withdrawing nearly €16,000 after successfully completing the verification process with Bruce Bet. He had uploaded multiple documents, but the casino then requested proof of a payment made via Google Pay, which did not appear in his activity history. Despite providing several identity verifications, he remained unable to access his winnings due to this issue. The Complaints Team had communicated with the casino to clarify the documentation required, which included a PDF bank statement showing all deposits made in July 2025. However, due to a lack of response from the player, the complaint was closed for now, but the player could reopen it in the future.

Good day

I have a complete problem and am really getting desperate. I am registered with Bruce Bet and have won something now and then and paid out, and have never had any problems. But now I was lucky and won more a few weeks ago, almost €16,000, and then I was asked to go through full verification, which wasn't really a problem and was the normal process and I'm familiar with it from other online casinos. I then uploaded the documents they asked for. The second or third time it worked and I received a notification in my account and an email that the verification process had been successfully completed and I could make my withdrawal, which I then did and tried. 2-3 days after my withdrawal request I suddenly received another notification that the verification was not yet complete and that more things were needed, namely my deposit into the casino account. And this is where my whole drama and apparent problem begins. I have an account with Monese Bank which is linked to Google Pay, and I used the Google Pay payment method because it's easier and faster, as the data is stored there and you don't have to manually enter your name, account number, etc. It worked as always and the payment was deducted from my real Monese account. However, my bank statement doesn't show payment via Google Pay, Bruce Bet Casino or whatever, it just says - artifyne al art - or - vltks - nothing else, because it goes through some third party provider. And now my biggest problem in my Google Pay app or wallet is that the last activities saved there are from January of this year and nothing from July 19, 2025 and December 17, 2025. I've been trying for almost a week now to speak to someone at Google Pay or even someone on Google normally and ask or clarify why I can't see these activities or have them in my history and the last one is from January of this year. But there simply isn't a phone number for that where you're not just talking or writing to a machine or AI.. Bruce bet wants a photo or screenshot showing that I made the payment with them using the said payment method, Google Pay. Despite the problems with Google Pay, I think I've already sent more than enough and have proven my identity, as they call it. I sent my ID card, a selfie of myself with my ID card, photos of my account card, bank statements, a screenshot of my online banking, and a registration certificate. Just because I don't have the exact details from the payment via Google Pay, I haven't received the verification, which was actually already completed and passed, and therefore not a cent of my money is in my account. I simply don't know what else to do except if I search here, I'm having no luck getting legal advice from a lawyer. I can't think of anything else. I hope you might have a tip or something else for me that will help me. Kind regards, Kevin B.

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I understand how frustrating it must be to go through the verification process multiple times, especially after already receiving confirmation that it was completed. Unfortunately, when deposits are made through Google Pay, the casino’s payment processor name often appears on the bank statement instead of the casino’s name. This is quite common, but it can make verification more complicated.

To move forward, I suggest trying the following steps:

  1. Download a full Monese statement (preferably in PDF format) for the period when you made the deposits. Even if "Bruce Bet" is not shown directly, the processor names together with the exact amounts and dates can serve as proof.
  2. Check your Google Pay account via the website: Go to pay.google.com, log in, and look under the "Activity" section. Sometimes the browser version displays transactions that the app does not.
  3. Contact Google Pay support through the help page on their website and request written confirmation of your transactions. Even if they cannot show them in your activity, an official statement from their side can help explain the missing records.

To better understand your case, could you please also let us know:

  • On which exact dates and for what amounts did you deposit via Google Pay into your casino account?
  • Do these transactions appear on your Monese statement?
  • Have you already tried to upload your Monese statement to the casino, and if yes, what was their response?
  • Did the casino confirm in writing which specific document they are still missing?

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

Veronika

Hello

First of all, thank you for your answer, and especially for your support and help.

So I made two payments via Google Pay, one on July 17, 2025 for €10 and the other on July 19, 2025 for also €10. Both were debited or deducted from my Monese account as normal. I sent Bruce Bet a full bank statement for this, but then I got another message from Bruce Bet saying they wanted proof or a bank statement or screenshot from my online banking showing my deposit to their casino via Google Pay, with my name and the payment to Bruce Bet via Google Pay clearly visible. I've tried several times to explain to them that I don't have anything else myself apart from what I've already sent them, as my activities on Google Pay were somehow not saved or recorded there, and I'm already contacting Google Pay support to find out for myself why I can't see these activities or payments. But you can still see on my Monese bank statement that on both of the days in question I made a deposit of €10 into my Bruce Bet account, which also arrived with them. They should or can link or assign it to them, even if it only shows the name of the payment processor and not exactly Google Pay payment or something like that. But I keep getting the same answer or request from them or the AI, it's really driving me crazy with Google Pay support, it goes back and forth, they write what I should look at or do to be able to see the payments, I write back and forth and still don't see anything, then the reply comes back try this, try this etc. etc. I replied or wrote back to Google Pay support today to say that I have already tried everything but nothing changes or achieves, and that I need or must get a detailed printout or proof from them for these two payments. And now I'm waiting again for the next answer I get from them. As I said, the whole thing is really frustrating. I really don't know what to do anymore. Regards, Kevin.

Hello


I know I haven't received a new response from you yet, but I'm still quickly sending you the response I received today from Google Pay support. It's just an unbelievable nightmare from which I can't seem to wake up...

Hello Kevin,

Thank you for contacting us with your concern. I understand how important it is for you to find proof of payment, and I'd like to help you with that. We've reviewed the screenshots you provided and determined that the requested payments appear to have been made to a third-party payment provider via Google Pay.

In the Google Wallet app on your smartphone, which displays your recent card activity, only transactions made directly with that specific card using contactless payment (NFC) on your device are shown. Therefore, you'll only see payments from January, since that's the last time you used that card to make a contactless payment.

Transactions like the two payments you made in July are processed differently. They are considered online payments and will not appear in the Google Wallet app's activity log. You can find these specific payments on your card statements or in the transaction history in your card issuer's app. Since this is a Monese Virtual EU Mastercard, you'll need to check your Monese account history.

We know this can be confusing, and thank you for your patience. This is the best way to obtain the evidence you need for these specific transactions.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Thank you!

Caroline

Thank you for sharing the detailed response from Google Pay. I understand how frustrating it must be to keep going back and forth, and I appreciate all the effort you’ve already put into gathering the required documents.

Have you already tried forwarding the message you received from Google Pay to the casino, along with the Monese statements from your card issuer’s app? Since Google Pay clearly explained why the transactions don’t appear in the wallet and confirmed that the records are visible on your bank statement, this could serve as strong supporting evidence for your case.

Could you also please let me know when you last communicated with the casino regarding this verification issue? If possible, please forward me the emails between you and the casino about this matter at veronika.f@casino.guru, so I can better understand their exact requirements.

Hello, I'm sorry that I'm only replying now, but I was sick and laid up for almost a week with the flu. I last had contact with the casino two weeks ago, but they told me the same thing. I'm now waiting for a response from Monese Bank again and hope that this time I'll speak to a real person who understands my request and can send me the necessary data. Then I'll forward this along with the email from Google Pay to the casino. Kind regards, KB

Good day

Yes, I have now received an answer from the bank, but not a positive one. I have tried everything and I really don't know what to do. I will forward this to the casino, but I don't think that will get me very far. I will send you the answers from the bank.

Thank you very much, Chikoooo, for providing all the necessary information. I will now transfer your complaint to my colleague Michal (michal.k@casino.guru) who will be at your assistance. I wish you the best of luck and hope to see your problem being resolved to your satisfaction in the near future.

Hello Chikoooo,

I'm Michal, and I have taken over your complaint. I have reviewed this case, and I must say this is indeed an unfortunate and quite tricky situation. On one hand, the casino team is fully entitled, if not required, to verify the deposits you made as part of the standard KYC and AML process; on the other hand, I understand that you have already provided everything you could regarding this, and the involved companies, Google Pay or Monese Bank, cannot really provide you with anything else. Please forward me any emails, livechat screenshots, or transcripts you had with Google Pay and Monese Bank support to my email michal.k@casino.guru

I will contact the casino to see if I can help somehow.

We would like to invite Bruce Bet Casino to join the conversation.



Dear Bruce Bet Casino,

While I understand your entitlement, if not directly an obligation, to verify the player's deposit as part of the standard KYC and AML process, however, as it is apparent, the player had already provided you all the available evidence they were able to obtain, and now even the involved companies, Google Pay and Monese Bank, are not really able to provide any further evidence regarding this.

Kindly provide your clarification on what other, if any, documents are still needed from the player to move on with their verification process and how they should obtain them.

If there are any additional factors relevant to this case that cannot be disclosed publicly, please share them with me directly at michal.k@casino.guru

Dear Michal,


The player did upload a Monese statement dated 15 August 2025, but this was submitted as part of the POA verification before payment methods were requested on 27 August 2025. Therefore, we cannot accept the previously submitted statement retroactively.


At this stage, we are awaiting a PDF bank statement showing all deposits made to the account in July 2025. Once we receive this document, we will be able to proceed with completing the verification process.

Thank you for the clarification.



Dear Chikoooo,

As per the casino team's response, please forward them a PDF bank statement showing all deposits made to your casino account in July 2025 and add my email michal.k@casino.guru in the "Cc".

Additionally, I still have not received an email from you regarding the emails, live chat screenshots, or transcripts you had with Google Pay and Monese Bank support, so please do so at your earliest convenience.
