Case summary

The player from Italy was unable to withdraw funds due to a lack of account verification, despite having submitted all required documentation five days prior. He had not received a response from the KYC department, which was supposed to contact him within 48 hours. After repeated requests for additional documents, he reported that the casino revoked a self-imposed cooling-off period without his consent, leading to significant losses. The Complaints Team attempted to mediate but faced repeated non-responsiveness from the casino. Consequently, the complaint was marked as "unresolved," which could negatively impact the casino's rating, and the player was advised to pursue legal channels or contact gaming authorities.

They don't want to verify my account. I sent all the required documentation five days ago and haven't heard from them despite my repeated requests. They told me the KYC department would contact me within 48 hours at the latest, but they haven't heard from me since.

I would like to withdraw but I can't if my account isn't verified.

Dear player,

Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem.

Please understand that KYC is a very important and essential process, during which the casino makes sure that the money is sent to the rightful owner. As they don't have the luxury of being able to physically see all of the players and check their identification and documents, this is the only way gambling establishments are able to complete the verification procedures. None of the serious and licensed casinos takes KYC lightly and it might take a few working days to complete this thorough process.

Could you please advise which documents you have already provided and when exactly did you send the last one?

Have you provided all the required documents as soon as possible and in the correct format?

Have you made any successful withdrawals before?

Did you accumulate your winnings with or without an active bonus?

I hope we will be able to help you to resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your reply.

Best regards, 

Dominika

Could you please tell me which documents you have already provided and when exactly you sent the last one?

-I provided my ID, utility bill, and photo of the credit card used.

I sent everything on Friday, July 11th.

I was promised an update within 48 hours at the latest but I have not received any updates.


Did you provide all the requested documents as quickly as possible and in the correct format?

- Yes, certainly


Have you made successful withdrawals in the past?

-No, this is my first time dealing with this casino and I've never withdrawn anything.

They do not allow you to make withdrawals if the account is not verified


Did you accumulate your winnings with or without an active bonus?

-I accumulated winnings without an active bonus


I've read many complaints about this casino's verification process, which appears to intentionally delay and/or even refuse to pay players.

Update:

After repeated reminders, the KYC department got in touch, but of course not to definitively verify my account but to ask for a new document (selfie with my ID card in hand and the computer screen with my username visible behind it).

Even though this makes no logical sense I provided this photo after a few minutes and

Despite this, my account has not yet been verified.

I also pointed out that it is not correct to continually ask for further documentation every 4-5 days to delay the verification.

In any regular casino the verification takes 1-2 days and the documents are requested at the same time.

So far I have provided:

- identity card

- electricity bill

- photo of credit card

- selfie with document in hand

Given the casino's intentional delay in verifying my account, I asked them to set limits on my account (cooling-off) so as not to play through the balance.

The cooling-off was applied as per my request.

Dear player, could you please let us know whether your account has already been successfully verified?

Also, has the casino requested any additional documents after the selfie with your ID and username on the screen?

The KYC department revoked the Time out period I set on July 11th without my consent.

I lost everything out of frustration.

I filed a complaint because I never requested the cooling-off to be interrupted and they closed my account without further communication.

I have never seen such blatant fraudulent conduct by a casino.

This is the chat where I ask for and get the Time out period on July 11th.


On July 17th, my indefinite time-out period was revoked without my authorization.


Meanwhile, my account was still not verified due to the continuous request for additional documents at intervals of 3-4 days.

Dear player, could you please confirm whether you received any official confirmation (such as an email) from the casino showing that the time-out or cooling-off period was successfully applied to your account on July 11th?

Additionally, has your account now been successfully verified, or are you still waiting for the KYC process to be completed?

I thought you read my previous posts..


This is proof of the Time Out activation requested via chat on July 11th. If you send me your email address, I'll send you the full chat:


From that moment on all the games were disabled so I couldn't play but only log into the account.


This is the communication from the KYC department dated July 17th informing me that the Time Out has been revoked without my authorization.


At that point my account was still not verified.


After losing all my balance and filing a Time Out revocation complaint without my consent, my account was closed without any communication from the casino.

Hello Leoca79, nice to meet you!

My name is Matej and I will be taking care of your complaint going forward. I've just reviewed this case and fully appreciate your concerns regarding the requested pay out. I'll do my best to help you resolve this issue as soon as possible.


I’d like to invite a representative of NationalBet Casino to join the conversation and participate in the investigation of this case as well. Could you please provide more details as of why this player’s withdrawal request is being processed longer than usual? I would also appreciate if the casino could provide us with any and all relevant evidence. Any sensitive information or internal system files can be shared with me directly by e-mail matej.l@casino.guru.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation in advance.

Hi Matej,

The problem is not the delay in paying the withdrawal but the revocation of the Time out period which made me lose everything after a frustrating verification process that never ended.

Please reread the previous messages carefully.

The casino will never respond to this complaint because they know they are in the wrong.

Given the volume of complaints and grievances about this casino's predatory conduct, I expect its rating to be downgraded.

As for my case, I will proceed through legal channels since I have already identified the legal representative of SML SAVEOPERATIONS LTD.

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 Leoca79,

I have tried to contact the casino repeatedly via e-mails and Teams, but had no success. I’m afraid there is not much that can be achieved without cooperation from their side. I will mark the complaint as "unresolved" in our system, and it will negatively impact their future safety rating on our website as such. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue at all. However, the decrease in the rating caused by unresolved complaints might help to change the casino's approach in the future. If the casino decides to react, we will reopen the complaint, and you will be notified by email.

As a next step, I do recommend you contact the Anjouan Gaming Authority and submit a complaint with them. To do this, please go to the casino's website and look for the Anjouan Authority logo, usually placed somewhere at the front page. It should look something like this:

file

Once you see it, click on it and it should open a license validating page on a separate browser window. Scroll down, until you see the button File a Complaint, click it and follow the instructions.

Alternatively, you can also lodge the complaint with Kahnawake Gaming Commission by clicking this link (https://gamingcommission.ca/interactive-gaming/complaints/) and following the instructions stated on the website.

If you need help with submitting the request, or if you hear back from either the authority or the casino, please let me know by sending me a quick message at matej.l@casino.guru. I am really sorry I could not be of more help on this occasion. :(

Best regards,

Matej
