Bankonbet Casino - O saque do jogador está atrasado devido à verificação.

Good morning,

I've been dealing with this problem for almost two months. I have approximately €2,300 plus €500 in withdrawals (which are blocked). The BANKONBET casino requested verification documents, which I provided, but they haven't verified them for about two months now. This is preventing me from withdrawing almost €3,000. I've tried contacting them via chat and email, but all they do is give me the runaround, saying they're overwhelmed with work and haven't been able to verify my information yet, that they're very sorry, and offering their sincerest apologies, etc.

It's shameful, nothing like this has ever happened to me before. I've tried emailing and chatting with them and nothing...

Please, I need a solution. Thank you very much.

Buenos días,

Llevo casi dos meses con este problema. Tengo unos 2300€ aproximadamente + 500€ en retito (bloqueado). El casino BANKONBET me solicito los documentos de verificación, les facilite todo lo solicitado y llevan desde hace aproximadamente unos dos meses, sin verificarme la documentación´´on y esto deriva a no permitirme hacer el retiro de casi 3000€ que tengo dentro. Todo es abrir chat y escribirles por mail y lo único que hacen es darme largas, que por volumen de trabajo que no han podido aun verificarlo, que lo sienten mucho, que me piden sus mas sinceras disculpas etc...

Es vergonzoso, nunca me había sucedido nada igual y es que todo es escribirles por mail y por chat y nada...

Por favor necesito solución. Muchas gracias.

Important notice:

Casino Guru will never ask for payments or access to your accounts to complete KYC. If someone claims to be from Casino Guru and does that, do not share any information.

We only contact players through this official complaint thread or via @casino.guru e-mail addresses. Always check the sender’s domain and verify your complaint resolver’s e-mail address by clicking on their avatar visible inside the official complaint thread.

If anything seems suspicious, contact us directly.

Stay safe.

Dear Alvaro1369, 

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

Could you please advise which documents you have already provided and when exactly did you send the last one? Have you provided all the required documents as soon as possible and in the correct format? 

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, 

Attila

Good afternoon,

The documents provided were: The transaction history of the card I used to log in, done. Photo of the credit/debit card, done. (Since it's a virtual card, the document provided was a screenshot, as the rules state that if it's a virtual card like mine from WISE, a screenshot is allowed.) Selfie photo, done.

I uploaded these three documents about two months ago. After waiting several weeks (since it said they were under review), I logged into my account and saw that they were now asking me again for a photo of my credit/debit card. They weren't asking for the other two (transaction history and selfie). I uploaded a screenshot of my virtual WISE card two or three weeks ago, and I'm still waiting; it's still under review. All I do is exchange emails and chat with them, and all they do is apologize for the delay, add a note to the relevant team, and say it will be ready as soon as possible, as they have a heavy workload. Two months of waiting in total.

Buenas tardes,

Los documentos proporcionados han sido: El historial de transacciones de la tarjeta con la cual ingrese, hecho. Foto de la tarjeta de credito/debito, hecho. (al ser una tarjeta virtual el documento proporcionado fue una captura de pantalla, como bien pone en las normas, que si es una tarjeta virtual como la mía de WISE que si que se puede una captura. Foto Selfie, hecho.

Estos 3 documentos los subí hace 2 meses aproximadamente, despues de estar varias semanas esperándome (ya que ponia que estaban bajo revisión) entre a la cuenta y vi que ahora me estaban volviendo a solicitar la foto de la tarjeta credito/debito, las otras dos (historial de transacciones y foto selfie) ya no me lo pedian; subi captura de mi tarjeta WISE virtual hace 2-3 semanas y desde ahi sigo a la espera y sigue bajo revision. Todo es cruzar mails con ellos y hablarles por chat y lo unico que saben es pedirm disculpas por la demora que ponen nota al equipo correspondiente y que estara lo antes posible, que tienen mucha carga de trabajo. 2 meses esperando total.

Hello,

Any news?

Thank you so much

Hola,

¿Alguna novedad?

Muchas gracias

Dear Alvaro1369,

Thank you for your reply. Has the casino indicated that there might be a problem with approving specific documents?

Could you please forward your communication with the casino in relation to this issue? You can reach me via email at attila.g@casino.guru, or you can post screenshot here.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Good morning,

First of all, please excuse the delay in responding, I have been traveling.

No, they haven't informed me of any problems with the document approval. In fact, whenever I've spoken to them via live chat asking for explanations or through Gmail, all they do is offer their sincerest apologies and say they don't understand what happened, that they're very sorry. It's always the same, but they never actually solve the problem.

I am forwarding all the email threads with them to the email address provided.

Buenos días,

Primero que todo disculpad por la demora en la respuesta, he estado de viaje.

No, no me ha informado de ningún problema en la aprobación de los documentos. De hecho siempre que he hablado con ellos por el chat en vivo pidiendo explicaciones o por el gmail lo unico que hacen es pedirme sus mas sinceras disculpas y que no entienden lo sucedido, que lo lamentan mucho, es siempre lo mismo, pero nunca acaban de solucionarme el problema.

Le reenvio todos los hilos de correos con ellos al mail indicado.

Good afternoon,

They're not answering? How is this possible?

I've never had anything like this happen with a bookie before; it's shameful that they're not going to pay me almost €3,000.

Buenas tardes,

¿No contestan? ¿Como es posible esto?

Nunca me había pasado nada igual con una bookie, es vergonzoso que vayan a no pagarme casi 3.000€

Dear Alvaro1369,

We are pleased to inform you that your account has been successfully verified.

You may now proceed with submitting your withdrawal request.

Kind regards,

Bankobet Team

Good afternoon,

Thank you very much, I just made a withdrawal. I will let you know here if the withdrawal goes through or is canceled.

Buenas tardes,

Muchas gracias, acabo de hacer un retiro. Informare por aquí si se realiza el retiro o es cancelado

Dear Alvaro1369, Thank you very much for the update. We will keep this complaint open until you confirm your withdrawal has been successful. Please keep me informed about any further developments.

Good afternoon,

I'm updating you: I made two withdrawals of €500 each via bank transfer to the IBAN linked to my Wise account. There were no problems, and the withdrawals arrived within a week. Once they arrived, I tried to withdraw using the same withdrawal method and IBAN, but it wouldn't let me. They told me that the country of origin doesn't allow withdrawals to that country (the same method as the two previous withdrawals, which did arrive).

Upon seeing that, I tried to withdraw using VISA, the VISA card linked to my WISE account, but they have cancelled the withdrawal twice already...

There is currently about €1800 outstanding in the account, please be serious and pay it...it makes no sense that now you won't let me withdraw to an IBAN that I have withdrawn several times before.

Buenas tardes,

Os actualizo, realice dos retiros de 500€ cada retiro por transferencia bancaria al IBAN vinculado a mi cuenta Wise, no hubo ningún problema y los retiros llegaron a la semana y poco, una vez me llegaron intente retirar por el mismo método de retiro y mismo IBAN y no me dejaron, me dicen que el país de origen no esta permitido el retiro de dinero a ese país de origen (mismo método que los dos retiros anteriores los cuales si llegaron).

Al ver eso intente retirar mediante VISA, la visa vinculada a mi cuenta de WISE, me han cancelado el retiro ya dos veces...

Ahora mismo en la cuenta quedan pendientes unos 1800€ aprox, por favor que sean serios y lo pagen...no tiene sentido que ahora no me dejen retirar a un IBAN el cual he retirado varias veces anteriormente.

Thank you for the update Alvaro1369.

Dear Bankonbet Casino representative, can you update us on the situation regarding the withdrawal? Why is the player unable to withdraw using the method that was already successfully used to withdraw? Thank you in advance for your clarification!

We would like to ask the casino to reply to this complaint. We are extending the timer by 7 days. If the casino fails to respond in the set time frame, we will close the complaint as ‘unresolved’ which may negatively affect its rating.

Dear all,

Thank you for your patience.

We kindly inform you that we reviewing your case with the relevant department.

Moreover, we would like to assure you that we will notify you promptly once there is an update.

Kind regards,

Thank your patience.

This is a disgrace…

Esto es una verguenza…

Dear Alvaro1369,

Despite providing the casino team with an extended time period, unfortunately, there has not been any development, and the casino team has stopped responding to our enquiries. This approach is not in alignment with the standards we expect from a high-rated casino. Consequently, we find ourselves in the position of having to close this case as unresolved. I understand this isn't a satisfactory solution to your issue. However, the decrease in their rating may encourage them to reconsider and renew their efforts to reach a satisfactory resolution, and this option certainly remains open to them. Of course, you will be notified by email of any developments. Since the casino doesn't hold a valid license and doesn't utilize any Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) services, there's no gaming authority to approach, leaving us with no further avenues for action.

I am sorry we could not be of more help on this occasion.

Best regards,

Mirka

Casino Guru

Dear Alvaro1369,

Can you please confirm, if you have received the payout, as the casino mentioned in the reopen request?
