Case summary

The player from Romania faced difficulties withdrawing funds due to an ID verification issue. After submitting various documents, including a photo ID and a credit card, he found that the ID remained unverified, and further verification was requested without any clear instructions. His account was suspended during this verification process. Despite providing a selfie video as additional verification, the casino relied solely on a third-party verification service's assessment, flagged the ID as potentially fake, and permanently closed his account, confiscating his winnings due to alleged fraudulent activity. The complaint was closed as unresolved because the casino did not conduct an independent internal investigation beyond the third-party findings.

Hello. I played on this casino site and after I win a big score, after trying to withdraw I got at the verification steps. I gave photo id first requirement. Got a rejection with no explanation. After that they requested credit card photo. Gave them the photos and the card got verified in 24 h. Now at the verification screen I have all documents verified except Id. When I try to re-load the id photos the sistem tells me I cannot anymore. After contacting support they email me and tell me that further verification is required. But they didn't request anything from my side. They tell me to wait ... It has been 3 days now .. my account is suspended during verification... I cannot withdraw I cannot play. .. and I have no idea why this long for a verification. Can you please help?

Dear Alexrazian,

I apologize for the delay in my response.

I would like to inform you that our communication with the casino representatives is still ongoing. To proceed further, I would like to ask for a bit more information. Could you please confirm whether your ID card was the only document you submitted for verification? Has the casino requested any additional documents, such as a selfie with your ID, proof of address, or perhaps offered to conduct a verification call as part of an enhanced verification process?


Since there have been some concerns regarding the appearance of your ID, I kindly ask you to record a short selfie video (approximately 15 seconds) of yourself holding your ID next to your face, along with a piece of paper showing the current date and the text "Casino Guru." Please ensure that the ID is clearly visible and that both your photo and personal details are readable.

Once the video is ready, please send it to me directly at jakub.m@casino.guru.


Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.

Dear HighFlyBet Casino,

Thank you for your message.

Allow me to reiterate our position, as previously stated.

When a casino uses a third-party verification provider, the final responsibility for verification outcomes must remain with the casino itself. The contractual relationship exists between the player and the casino, not between the player and the verification platform. While services such as Sumsub can provide valuable assistance in identifying potential fraud or identity-related concerns, their findings should be considered advisory rather than definitive.

From our perspective, if a casino chooses to block a player’s account and confiscate their balance, it must be able to independently justify and substantiate such actions. Relying solely on a third-party platform’s assessment, without conducting an internal investigation or taking additional verification steps, is unacceptable.

In this case, the player’s identification document was flagged as potentially fake. In response, we requested additional verification in the form of a selfie video clearly showing the player and the ID document. The player fully cooperated, and the video was provided to you for review. Despite this, and despite recommendations to conduct a verification call, you chose to rely exclusively on Sumsub’s findings and did not perform any further internal assessment. The decision to apply punitive measures and confiscate the player’s balance was therefore based solely on a "potentially fraudulent" flag.


As a result, we have no alternative but to close this complaint as unresolved.


Dear Alexrazian,

I’m sorry that we were unable to achieve a more favorable resolution in this case.

Please understand that we pursued this complaint thoroughly and requested additional verification steps from the casino to ensure a fair and independent assessment.

We understand how frustrating and disappointing this outcome can be, especially given your cooperation throughout the process. Please know that our decision reflects the casino’s stance rather than a lack of effort or belief in your position.

If you experience any further issues with this or any other casino in the future, do not hesitate to contact our Complaint Resolution Center. We will be more than willing to assist you again.

We appreciate your patience and trust, and we wish you all the best moving forward.


Best Regards,

Kubo
