The player from Bulgaria has been struggling to pass the KYC probably due to a deposit from someone else's payment method. We rejected the complaint because the player didn't respond to our messages and questions.
For two weeks now they have been asking me for more and more documents and my account has been verified. with the ID card and a screenshot of the hidden account of another person who once deposited money to me. Why don't they want these things when depositing. And my profile was verified as I already mentioned. Since I no longer have the cards in question, should I go and take pictures of the bank employee who destroyed them?
Dear bogito1984,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint. I’m sorry to hear about your problem. I have checked T&Cs, and this is what I found:
"3.4. All Customers should at all times be able to guarantee not to be:
- Acting on behalf of a third party
- Depositing money of unclear origin
- Depositing money through a credit card which they are not authorized to use or knowingly receiving money from such credit card.
- Using the services, offered by AE Group B.V., for money laundering."
Furthermore, please check our Fair Gambling Codex for Players:
"Payments
For deposits and withdrawals, you should only use bank accounts and credit cards held in your own name. If you don't do this, you might get into trouble when trying to make a withdrawal. This rule is mostly in place to prevent credit card misuse and also because of international anti-money-laundering regulations."
Please understand that this rule has been breached. Some exceptions might be allowed by casinos when depositing or withdrawing funds using a joint card or this possibility is communicated beforehand. Technically it is very difficult to check who’s the owner of the payment method at the depositing stage. This can be checked only during the account verification, which is usually done when a withdrawal is requested. Therefore, it is a player’s responsibility to use allowed payment methods only.
If you’re not able to prove that you are a legitimate owner of the payment method and you haven’t received approval from the casino allowing you to use a third-party payment method, I’m afraid there’s not much we can do for you.
Thank you very much in advance for your reply and understanding.
Best regards,
Kristina
