Case summary

The player from Italy faced issues withdrawing her winnings from an Elabet account after encountering delays receiving the welcome bonus. Despite providing all requested documentation 16 days earlier, she was still waiting for her funds and felt scammed. She requested her winnings back and hoped to receive the bonus, although she feared being denied due to the withdrawal request. The issue was resolved after the player submitted a video showing the website and her ID, which led the casino to refund her funds and credit her welcome bonus after 1.5 months. The complaint was subsequently marked as resolved by the Complaints Team.

So, I opened an Elabet account on January 12, 2026, made my first deposit, and played the balance on slots to qualify for the casino welcome promotion, which includes a fun bonus of up to €1,000 on your first deposit. Luckily, I was lucky enough to win something on the slots and requested the welcome bonus, which never arrived (again with the excuse of delays in awarding the bonus). So I got fed up and decided to withdraw my winnings. I wish I'd never done that before! They asked me for everything (documents, however, fully provided, account statements, selfies (not selfies), identity, card numbers, etc.). Today, it's been 16 days since I provided all the documentation. In chat, they keep saying that "they've prioritized my case and it will be resolved shortly." Not only did I feel scammed for not receiving the welcome bonus, but now I can't even withdraw my money.

I ask if possible to 1) have my money back since they have received all the requested documentation

2) Given the inconvenience caused, if possible, also get the casino fun bonus (although now they will appeal to the fact that after 20 days from registration, not seeing that I was receiving the fun bonus, I requested a withdrawal and therefore I am no longer entitled to the bonus... a bonus which according to the terms and conditions should arrive within 72 working hours of the deposit, but whatever)

That's it, let me know if you need any more information: I didn't play the live casino or place any sports bets, the entire balance was wagered in the slots section (as per the terms and conditions)

Hello,

Thank you very much for submitting this complaint. I'm sorry to hear about the problem you're experiencing. Please allow me to ask you a few questions to clarify your situation.

  • Have any of your documents been reviewed and approved by the KYC department?
  • Have you experienced any similar delays in any other casinos licensed in Italy before?
  • How long did you wait for the welcome bonus to be awarded before you decided to submit a withdrawal request?
  • When was the last time the casino communicated with you regarding the verification of your account?

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

Hi Veronica,

Even though I've asked them a billion times, every time they chat they just say they're asking for help (even though I've sent them everything they need, even my Paypal statement)

The only similar case was for Stake.it but not for the withdrawal, there they actually suspended my account

The last email is from 7 days ago with Amelia saying:

"Dear Martina,

Thank you for contacting our customer support!

Thank you for submitting your documents.

The attachments have been promptly forwarded to the relevant Department, which will respond to you as soon as possible.

We thank you for your cooperation and availability.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us via email or Live Chat.

Best regards,

The Elabet.it team"


I'm also attaching some screenshots of the chat... which assures me that "they're speeding up the process and it should be unlocked soon"

Oh sorry, I forgot to reply to this:

"How long did you wait for your welcome bonus to be awarded before you decided to submit a withdrawal request?"

I waited 20 days after registering before deciding to send the withdrawal request.

I would like to point out that yesterday, after sending a video showing the website and my ID, they refunded my funds and credited my welcome bonus after 1.5 months.

You can also close the complaint as resolved, thank you very much.

Hello Martina94,

We would like to update you that due to Veronika, your designated resolver, being on vacation, we have opted to extend the timeline by an additional 7 days. Since Veronika has an in-depth understanding of your situation and maintains direct communication with the casino, we find this extension justified. Your patience is sincerely appreciated, and I assure you that Veronika will contact you at the earliest opportunity.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing patience.

Best regards, Casino Guru
