For 2.5 weeks I have been trying to pay something that I have been denied due to my surname. Since the letter "Ö" does not exist in English, I had to enter my name in the account details with "Hoeritsch", as is also required by law / customary.
Dafabet therefore refuses to pay out because the names Höritsch in the passport and Hoeritsch in the account details are not identical. Visits in the chat and explanatory e-mails unfortunately did not help. Very dubious and shocking this practice ....

Dear Thommy1911,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. We will contact the casino and ask for their cooperation in resolving this issue, but, before we do so, could you please advise if any of your personal documents can be found with "OE" spelling?
It is a well-known fact that the German alphabet includes different letters, and their spelling versions should be accepted worldwide.
"Is Ö the same as OE?
Ö or ö is one of the 4 extra letters used in German. It can be replaced by using the letters Oe or oe. In English language newspapers, it is often written as O or o but this is not correct."
If there’s any relevant communication, please forward it to petronela.k@casino.guru?
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,
Petronela

Many thanks for the answer!
No, there are of course no such documents with oe spelling, because the surname in German is just the way it is (and unfortunately I don't have another passport from an English-speaking country).
Kind regards

Hi Peter!
Yesterday the casino first rejected the withdrawal request and then paid out part of it. Unfortunately, I have not yet received an answer as to whether the problem has been solved or not. Lg
