On October 9, 2024, after more than 6 years at the casino (since it launched as Wanabet) and having spent several thousand there, with my account verified and everything in order, I finally won something. 440 EUR. I requested a withdrawal of 425 EUR via bank transfer to my Bunq account. I uploaded a receipt showing my details and IBAN. It wasn't accepted. They wanted a certificate of ownership or a receipt, in Spanish. I have the bank app set up in English. Anyway, I switched to another account where I am a co-holder at Caixabank. I uploaded a certificate of ownership (which is usually accepted everywhere). It wasn't accepted. They wanted one less than 3 months old. I uploaded another one, requested online.
That's when they blocked my account and asked for a selfie holding my ID (they already had one of mine), but showing my entire arm and elbow, also a copy of the last card used, and a certificate of ownership of this Caixabank account issued by a branch, on paper, and with the branch's stamp.
On October 10, I sent them everything they asked for. They told me they usually respond on the same day, but it might take a bit longer.
On Monday, they called me under the guise of conducting a survey. They just stopped short of asking for my bra size, blood type, and who I voted for in the last general elections. And I'm not exaggerating.
Even so, I patiently attended to them.
Since then, every time I ask, they reply with an automated response of "we have a work overload. When the team has reached your documents and reviewed them, we will notify you by email".
And so it has been till today, over 8 days later.
I thought that the transition from .com casinos to .es provided a certain level of security for players in Spain. But I see that this casino, even being Spanish, is behaving like an illegal betting operation based in the Caribbean.
Having worked in online casinos, I know perfectly well how the so-called verification departments operate. Especially when they're led by a frustrated aspiring detective Colombo.
And because I've worked on the other side in casinos, I know that forums like yours bring balance and a bit of sanity to those aspiring Colombo detectives.
Thanks in advance,
Widad.-

Hello Adamushka,
Thank you very much for submitting your complaint and I'm really sorry to hear about your issue with Yaass Casino. Please allow me to ask you a few more question before we would move forward.
- Could you please advise since when exactly is the verification process ongoing?
- Which documents have been already approved and which ones not?
- When was the last time you spoke to the casino and what was it about?
Please note that the verification process may take up to 14 days after sending in all the requested documents and they may block your account until the process is finished.
Looking forward to your answer.
Regards,
Nick
