I requested a withdrawal of 1700€ from my account at Golden Panda.

The withdrawal was initially marked as processed ("paid"), but it was later reversed and the funds were returned to my gaming account. Shortly after, my account was closed by the casino following a Source of Funds (SOF) verification process.

I fully cooperated with the verification and provided all requested documents, including bank statements, proof of income (URSSAF / France Travail), and explanations regarding my transactions.

Despite this, the casino refused my withdrawal and continues to request additional SOF documents without clearly specifying what exact document would be sufficient to resolve the issue.

There is no indication of fraud or any violation on my side. All deposited funds come from legitimate and traceable personal income.

I am requesting a fair review of my case and the release of my withdrawal or a clear final decision.

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear cynthiapellet25a,

I have repeatedly tried to contact the Golden Panda Casino but have had no success. Unfortunately, without cooperation from their side, there is little that can be achieved. I will mark the complaint as unresolved in our system. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in the casino's rating caused by unresolved complaints could help change their approach. If the casino decides to respond, we will reopen the complaint and notify you by email.


In the meantime, I recommend contacting the Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority (AOFA) also known as Anjouan Gaming by submitting a complaint through the license badge displayed in the footer of the casino’s website. Regulators often have additional tools and authority to assist players in such situations.

For guidance on how to effectively submit your complaint to the regulator, you can find helpful information in this article.


I’m truly sorry that I couldn’t provide a more favorable resolution this time.


Best regards,

Igor
