Formal Complaint: Unfair Account Suspension and Arbitrary KYC Demands

Player Name: A. R. Casino: Stake.com Disputed Amount: $480 (Initial Deposit: $2,200)

Description of the Issue: I am filing a formal complaint against Stake.com regarding the unwarranted suspension of my account and their ongoing refusal to release my remaining balance of $480 after a session of football betting.

My account was initially suspended under the pretext of a suspected breach of their Terms of Service.

Following the suspension, Stake requested extensive KYC documentation to lift the restrictions.

These requirements included a selfie with my identification, rent agreement , and three months of payslips alongside matching bank statements to prove my Source of Funds.

I fully cooperated with these requests and successfully completed all required verification steps.

Despite my compliance, Stake support informed me on August 24 that my documents were deemed insufficient to verify the source of my funds.

The casino then introduced highly specific and arbitrary documentation requirements, demanding bank statements and crypto exchange/VASP transaction histories specifically for the period of October, November, and December 2024.

As shown in the verification portal screenshot I have attached image, the system strictly demands original, signed, and stamped payslips, as well as bank statements, exclusively for this exact October to December 2024 period.

I formally raised my concerns with Stake's support team, pointing out that demanding historical financial records dating back nearly two years is irrelevant to my recent activity and appears to be an intentional stalling tactic.

I requested that they immediately review my completed KYC verification, cease these unreasonable demands, and either enable my withdrawal functionality or refund my original deposit back to the source address.

Stake has continually shifted the goalposts, using outdated and overly specific compliance requests as a hurdle to confiscate my funds without valid justification. I respectfully request CasinoGuru's assistance in mediating this dispute so I can successfully withdraw my funds.
