Case summary

The player from Norway had requested multiple withdrawals totaling 15,000 NOK two weeks ago but then faced blocked withdrawals due to a supposed verification requirement, even though the verification tab indicated that his account did not need verification. He had reached out via live chat and email but had not received a response. The issue was resolved after the player provided the necessary communications and confirmation of the bonus terms, leading to the casino lifting the withdrawal block. The complaint was marked as resolved by the player.

Hello!


I won a substantial amount on this site 01.10.2025, and requested one withdrawal per day until I had 3 pending withdrawals of 5000 NOK, as per the casino rules. I have played on their sister sites and know they have somewhat slow processing times, but I have always received my funds in about a week.


You cannot verify on this site unless you are asked to, when in which the verification tab will allow you to submit documents.


I kept waiting and nothing happened until 16.10.2025 when I noticed a new message in the cashier: "Withdrawals blocked - withdrawals are restricted by the operator".


I asked live chat and was told my account needed verification. In the verification tab however, it says my account doesnt need verification.

I went back to live chat to tell them this, and was instructed to send an email instead. I sent an email the same day, and I have not received an answer yet.

The email was sent thursday 16. october. However it’s impressive it took the casino 15 days to figure out my account my account needs verification - especially having been in contact with the live chat several times to ask the status of my withdrawals.


I had a 150% bonus which I finished wagering, live chat confirmed there was no max release from the bonus. I have emailed the transcript to you.


And I only played slots.


Thanks for your answer!

Thank you for the extension.


The situation has changed somewhat. Monday 20. October the verification tab opened and I was able to upload documents. All of them are approved now except one.


Twice I have uploaded what was requested (bank statement of card linked to apple pay between 02.08-02.09).

Both times the document was rejected with no explanation being sent to my email - and when I asked live chat they couldn't answer me as they "aren't in the relevant department".


I sent an email to support thursday 30. october about this, which I have forwarded to you. As well as their answer, which was that they were going to forward this to the relevant department. However, I am somewhat unsure that I will receive an answer.
