Case summary

The player from North Rhine-Westphalia has been waiting for a withdrawal of €1,317 from Lanista Casino for two weeks, following a quick partial payment of €500. They face unclear verification processes and generic responses from customer support regarding delays, alongside concerns about miscommunication related to "Rabona customer service."

My actual country of residence is Germany. The location field seems to be prefilled automatically and cannot be changed.


I am submitting a complaint against Lanista Casino regarding a delayed withdrawal of €1,317, requested on January 20, 2026.

A partial withdrawal of €500 was processed quickly. Since then, the remaining amount has been delayed for weeks without any valid explanation.

Customer support only provides generic excuses such as "high withdrawal volume" or "payment provider issues" and never gives a concrete payment date.

The verification process is also unclear. I am told to check the verification tab, but no clear or actionable requests are shown.

Additionally, I received an email from support referring to "Rabona customer service", even though my account is with Lanista only. This raises serious concerns about transparency and operator structure.

Despite a written confirmation from the casino stating that "everything is in order" with my withdrawal, no payment has been made and communication has stopped.

I kindly ask Casino Guru to assist in resolving this dispute and help me receive my legitimate winnings.

Dear Andypump,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. Please allow me to ask you a few questions, so I can understand the whole situation completely.

  • Could you please confirm that you have passed the KYC verification?
  • Have you accumulated your winnings with or without an active bonus?
  • Have you used the same payment method as previously for the withdrawal of €500?

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Best regards,

Attila

Dear Attila,

Thank you very much for your feedback and support.

I will gladly answer your questions as follows:

1) KYC verification:

I have not yet been able to complete the KYC verification process, as I have not been given the opportunity to upload the required documents.

The verification tab was mentioned to me several times, but it doesn't display any specific upload fields or open requirements.

I was not specifically informed which documents are required or how I can submit them.

2) Bonus:

Yes, I had activated a bonus.

However, this was implemented fully and in accordance with the rules.

The fact that the bonus conditions have been met is also demonstrated by the fact that the casino has already successfully carried out a partial payout of €500.

3) Payout method:

Yes, the same payment method used for deposits, namely MiFinity, was used for the withdrawal of the €500.

The outstanding payment should also be made using the same method.

I hope this information helps you in your further investigation of the case.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.

Best regards

Update regarding KYC verification:


I have now successfully uploaded my identity document and transaction history.


However, the selfie with ID and casino website in the background cannot be uploaded due to a technical issue. The upload page keeps reloading and the document is not submitted.


I have recorded a video showing this problem and sent it to the casino support.


I am fully willing to complete verification, but the system prevents me from doing so.

Hello Attila,


Thank you for your support.


I have just sent you the video recording of the technical problem, as well as screenshots and the selfie document, via email.


The identity verification and transaction history have been successfully uploaded and are currently being reviewed.

However, the required selfie with ID and casino page cannot be uploaded due to a technical error on the website.


Casino support has not yet offered an alternative verification method.


Thank you for your continued support.

Hello Attila,

Thank you for your support.

I have already sent you the requested videos. They clearly show that Lanista's verification system technically prevents the upload of the requested selfie (with ID and the casino website in the background).

I have tried the upload several times:

various browsers (Chrome, Edge)

various devices (PC and smartphone)

The problem occurs identically everywhere.

Lanista has been informed of this multiple times and has received the video recordings as evidence. Nevertheless, I continue to receive only standard replies requesting me to upload the very document that cannot be uploaded for technical reasons.

I have not yet been offered an alternative verification option (e.g., email submission or manual review).

I have submitted all other documents in full and am fully cooperating.

The delay in my payout is solely caused by this technical error on the platform.

My payment has been outstanding since January 17, 2026 (only a partial payment has been made).

I therefore ask for your support so that:

an alternative verification is enabled or

The verification will be completed manually.

Thank you so much for your help.

Kind regards

Update:


I contacted live support again and asked for a firm timeframe for the completion of the verification and payout.


Support stated that no timeframe could be given, as everything is being reviewed by the relevant department.


I was not given written confirmation of the status or a binding statement.


The chat was then ended.


I have submitted all requested documents in full and have also provided several videos of the technical upload problems.


The payout is still pending.

Hello Attila,

Quick update on my verification:

I was able to successfully upload the required selfie – but only after manually converting the file from JPG to PDF.

Uploading JPG and PNG files to the website was previously technically impossible (as documented in my videos).

This confirms that the problem was not due to missing documents, but to the platform's upload system.

Thank you for considering this update.

Kind regards

Andreas

Hello Hadi,

I would like to give an important update on the current status of the verification.

The casino requires a selfie with my ID and the casino website visible in the background, in JPG or PNG format. However, the upload system still doesn't allow these formats. The upload fails every time due to a technical error.

Previously, I could only upload the file after converting it to a PDF. While this upload worked initially, it was later rejected by the casino. Now they're insisting on JPG or PNG again – even though their system still doesn't accept these formats on my system.

I have already provided:

Video footage that clearly shows the upload error,

multiple upload attempts via different browsers and devices,

All requested documents were complete.

Currently, it is technically impossible for me to perform the upload in the required format, as the problem clearly lies with the casino's system.

My withdrawal (requested in January 2026) is still pending, while the casino continues to delay the payment, claiming that the verification is incomplete.

From my point of view, I fully cooperated and clearly demonstrated the technical error.

Thank you for your support and for contacting the casino about this.

Ladies and Gentlemen

To further clarify and fully document the facts, I would like to clearly describe the sequence of events once again:

I have submitted all the documents you requested multiple times and have fully cooperated.

The originally uploaded document was a PDF in which the required selfie with ID and casino website was clearly visible. However, this was not accepted, as only JPG or PNG files were allegedly permitted.

A direct upload of the original JPG file was technically impossible. The upload system repeatedly rejected the file. I clearly documented this technical error with video recordings, which I have already made available.

To still meet the requirements, I subsequently converted the image to a PNG file and also reduced the file size so that an upload was even possible. Only then was the file successfully uploaded.

The multiple format changes were therefore solely due to technical problems with your upload system — not due to a lack of cooperation on my part.

In summary, this means:

• All required content was submitted in full.

• The technical upload error has been proven multiple times (videos, screenshots)

• Uploading was temporarily only possible as a PDF (which was rejected)

• JPG files could not be uploaded for technical reasons (verifiable)

• PNG files could only be uploaded after conversion and resizing.

I have therefore fulfilled all requirements and taken all reasonable measures to complete the verification.

I therefore request confirmation:

Whether my verification is now fully completed

Are there any specific requirements still outstanding (if so, please specify them exactly)?

When the payout will finally be released

Thank you very much for the prompt clarification.

Hello Hadi,

I would like to inform you about the current status.

Lanista is now again demanding proof of my MiFinity wallet, even though I have already submitted this documentation in full.

I have already submitted: • Screenshots of my MiFinity account containing personal data

• Wallet number and account information

• Transaction overview

• Official MiFinity statement

• Additional screenshots to confirm my ownership

This evidence has been submitted multiple times and is already available to Lanista.

Nevertheless, the verification is blocked again and the same documents are requested once more. I cannot understand why documents that have already been reviewed and submitted are repeatedly requested.

I have re-uploaded the documents, but this has caused a further delay without a clear explanation.

Could you please check this and ask Lanista for a concrete explanation of what information is supposedly still missing?

Thank you for your support.

Kind regards

Additionally, I would like to mention that communication with Lanista has become very stressful for me.

After the numerous repeated requests, technical problems and delays, I currently see no meaningful progress in direct communication with the casino.

I therefore request that further clarification be handled through you, if possible, within the framework of the appeal procedure.

Dear Lanista Casino,


Thank you for your recent update.

The player has indicated that they have submitted the MiFinity wallet documentation and verification materials multiple times. To expedite this process, could you please provide specific details regarding the information that remains outstanding and the reasons why the previously submitted documents are deemed insufficient? A clear list of the requirements would greatly assist us in resolving this matter promptly.

We appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to your clarification so that we may complete the verification process.

Lanista continues to refuse to provide proof of MiFinity, even though I:

Full screenshots with personal data

Wallet number

E-mail address

official MiFinity account statement

as well as several file formats (JPG, PNG, PDF)

I have already submitted several submissions.

The requirements correspond exactly to what is required in the verification field.

Nevertheless, the status will continue to be set to "required".

It is not specifically stated what information is missing.

I cannot understand why fully submitted documents keep being reset.

I request clarification as to what specific information is allegedly missing or whether there is a technical problem.

Ladies and Gentlemen

Lanista is now demanding proof of my MiFinity wallet again, even though I have already submitted it completely several times.

I uploaded:

– Screenshots of my MiFinity account with personal data

– Wallet number

– Transaction overview

- E-mail address

– official MiFinity account statement (PDF)

– additional screenshots of the casino deposits

All documents were uploaded individually and meet the requirements exactly.

Nevertheless, my documents are repeatedly rejected and requested again without any comprehensible reason.

In my view, this behavior can no longer be understood as verification, but rather as a deliberate delay in payment.

I would like to explicitly state:

I am no longer willing to communicate directly with Lanista.

Communicating with this provider is no longer acceptable to me.

I therefore request Casino Guru to take the following measures:

Examination of the documents I submitted as complete and sufficient

Official statement from Lanista explaining why previously acceptable evidence is being requested again.

Clear deadline for the disbursement of my funds

I have met all the requirements.

No further documents exist.

Should this problem remain unresolved, I will be forced to refer the case to the relevant gambling and consumer protection authorities.

I ask for your support.

Best regards

So they're simply refusing every step I've taken cooperatively, without giving any reasons. Except for the fact that my case requires extremely thorough verification, which is unacceptable for someone who just wants to collect their winnings. They're simply blocking everything. I've also sent them the documents I sent them so they can verify them. They're an absolute black sheep in the online casino industry.

Dear Andypump,


Thank you for your patience while the relevant department reviewed the documentation you provided.


Following a review of the file, we have been informed that the previous screenshot is insufficient as the address is missing.


To proceed with your verification, we still require four (4) screenshots of your MiFinity wallet specifically showing your personal data, your account number (which usually starts with 5001), your email address, and your full residential address.


Please ensure that these details are clearly visible and that the images are not cropped. Once you have these screenshots ready, you can send them over so we can finalize the review of your account.


Best regards,

Ladies and Gentlemen

Lanista now states that the full address is missing from my previous screenshots.

I am hereby uploading all the requested documents again, including:

– Screenshot of my personal MiFinity data (name, date of birth)

– Screenshot showing wallet number (starting with 5001…)

– Screenshot with registered email address

– Screenshot of the transaction overview

– Official MiFinity eWallet statement (PDF)

– additional screenshots from my MiFinity profile area

All documents were uploaded completely, uncropped, and legibly.

I have provided all the information requested by Lanista multiple times. If any specific piece of information is still missing, I ask that Lanista specify exactly:

What specific information is missing?

On which side does it need to be visible?

Why is the official MiFinity statement insufficient?

From my point of view, all requirements have been fully met.

I request that Casino Guru review the documents and obtain a clear statement from Lanista.

Thank you for your support.

No other online casino needs this part, but whatever. This is a maximum block on winnings in the hope that the player will gamble them away. If a payout is even made at all, we're talking about a period from January 17, 2026, to today, March 9, 2026. Where is the prioritized processing? It's been in their possession since last Tuesday, March 3, 2026, by the way.

Lanista has again informed me that the verification and withdrawal are still under review by their finance department, without providing any timeframe.

My withdrawal request has been pending since 20 January 2026, and all requested documents have already been provided multiple times.

I kindly ask the casino to clarify when this review will finally be completed.



I understand that verifications and withdrawals may take some time, but my withdrawal request has been pending since 20 January 2026, which is now more than six weeks.

I have already provided all requested documents multiple times, including proof of my MiFinity wallet ownership and my personal details.

What concerns me is that there are many other online casinos where verification and withdrawals are processed within a few days, not several weeks.

I therefore kindly ask the casino to provide a clear and realistic timeframe for completing the verification and processing the withdrawal.
