On 31st July I won £600. I have been playing for the last year or so without any issues .
i have been depositing and making numerous withdrawals without problem until yesterday
Previously they asked me to verify my identity and I sent all documents - they were accepted and verified within a couple of hours a few months ago .
I tried to withdraw winnings yesterday and these were pending as they asked for more proof so I gave access to my bank account and a letter form the court with a recent address including a payslip.
They then advised 48 hours which I found annoying due to the quickness before.
i then re inquired and was told 30 days this then escalated to 42 days.
I explained I needed the money and they asked me why- several times I explained that I needed it to pay rent and I was in financial difficulty and suffering bad mental health . They then shut my account ( I agree this was right thing to do) but have not transferred me the money despite my pleas and the distress this has caused me.
After several generic responses I sent another email and they advised that I could escalate the matter, I replied asking why this hadn’t been done already as requested and for an update and timeline of process which they have failed to respond to .
I have contacted Watchdog too as I made a mistake and don’t believe they have taken into account what the implications are for me and how serious this is.
What I cannot understand is why they continued to let me deposit but denied the withdrawal after successfully withdrawing on numerous other occasions and how they can verify in 48 hours but are dragging it out to 42 days .
