Case summary

1 year ago

The player expressed frustration with the casino. They mentioned pending identity documents and a withdrawal request awaiting attention from the finance team. We contacted the casino, and its representative informed us that the passport photo sent by the player didn't meet the requirements, so the player was asked to send it again. Unfortunately, the player refused to do so and stopped responding to our messages. We were forced to reject the complaint.

Dear thebonjetty,

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 licensed casinos takes KYC lightly and it might take a few working days to complete this thorough process.

Have you been informed what specifically seems to be a problem in verifying your account?

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

Well the fact that 1 kyc should be done before they allow customers to gamble it's like of I walk into a casino in person i have to show my id before I enter wouldn't that be less troublesome Todo the kyc before taking out money . And my problem is 1 they are not accepting my driver's licence as a valid form of I'd because it has my middle name initial S and not my full middle name, o feel like my identity will be leaked giving howucj information I have to give and not to mention it's been 6 days and my documents are still pending and no one has replied to my countless emails expressing my concerns

I understand your frustration, and I fully agree that implementing a customer verification process before accepting any deposits would help prevent many issues. However, I would like to inquire if you have any other document that displays your full middle name. If this is the only discrepancy in the personal documents you have provided, it should not be a valid reason for the casino to deny verification of your account.

Still no payout I refuse to provide another copy of my passport what I've supplied is more then enough in all the countries in our world except theres apperently, I gave many legal and court documents which verifies enough to get. A home loan I don't trust this already discredit casino with my details that then can be used to defraud my name which has already happened and I suspect this casino to be the culprit as they were happy with the documents I first provided then once I received a alert on my credit file them they responded wanting More HD PHOTOS which is extremely suspicious giving all the reviews and poor customer service as I attempted to contact over 37 times and got 2 replies once I logded this report

Do I understand correctly that you have a passport that displays your full middle name? Are you willing to provide it to the casino or you've done so, but it was rejected previously?

Hello Natalia & Jayson,


I have checked and the photo the player provided of his passport was rejected as it doesn't meet the minimum requirements - photo is cropped and of low resolution.


In order to complete the verification the player is required to send a photo of his passport, keeping in mind the following requirements:

  • The submitted photos should be of high resolution, all the details should be in focus and clearly visible;
  • All four corners of each document need to be clearly visible in the photos;
  • Covering or distorting any of the information present in the documents is forbidden;
  • Photos should be taken only of the original document, photocopies and/or photos of a document displayed on a screen of a device will not be accepted.


With regards,

Eugénie Lacroix

Dear Goldwin Casino, thank you very much for the reply.


Dear thebonjetty, would you please try to upload the photo of your passport that would meet the requirement of the casino again? Feel free to send it to us too so we can check with our team if this photo would be somehow cropped or of a bad quality. My email is natalia.b@casino.guru.

Regards,

Natalia

Hi there as stated earlier I had attempted credit application tried with my passport details and this is the only casino Ive sent my passport photo to,it was the same day I received the rejection from the casinos (finance) team and was told by my credit file that the application failed due to poor quality I'd documents uploaded, I also supplied my driver's licence my government health care card my Medicare card and 3 other legal court documents verified by a police office stamped and official which in Australia ilthe documents I uploaded is more then enough to acquire a home loan so giving this casinos poor review history I feel extremely anxious about sending anymore information to them and has since ceased using there website, I believe it's completely fraudulent and have had no issues verifying my identy at other online casinos without sending my passport

Dear thebonjetty, I understand you may be not satisfied with the whole KYC procedure, however, the casino didn't ask you for some new documents, it asked you to provide a photo of your passport in better quality. It seems that you already provided the casino with this one, but the quality was insufficient. I certainly get it, it may be annoying to upload the same documents many times, but please understand that the KYC part is a crucial thing and the quality of your documents should meet the requirements.

Could you please try to make a new photo and upload it again? As previously stated, you can also send it to us so we can confirm if the quality seems to be sufficient enough.

Best regards,

Natalia
