Sorry but that is absolute bullshit. If it was so important and used to stop the criminal activities you mentioned it would be written in legislation, it isn’t. It is a ridiculous thing to ask for, they have more than enough when they verify to cover themselves against what you mentioned.

It is? Ever read the MGA and UKGC requirements?

Damn, you guys moan.

Firstly – I agreew ith most of what Bandit says, but this I have mixed feelings.

Working in iGaming, even in Malta, you see the need for these kinds of things. Steve, with his recent increased levels of deposits, will be flagged up on every system of anything from VIP, SuperWhale, Jesus, or “Fuck me he is back”.

What you need to know if each year casinos also have to pay tax. They have to submit reports on large depositors to regulators, licencing companies and such. In these reports are listed that they comply fully with AML checks, KYC submission, holding of documents, GDPR and DPA.

So short version – Its sending a selfie that enable you to gamble the amount that you do, in the comfort that you have, and reap the rewards that hardly anyone else has the balls, or brains, to figure out. In return they guarantee your wins, payouts, insured funds, and also pay you on time.

Id just do it and get on with it.

 

However – Them asking the poster above for a letter form the boss? Thats odd. Why not just send in the simple Passport/BankCard/UtilityBill/WageSlip?

 

As for source of funds – without that casinos become drug money laundering operations REAL fast. They get shut down daily globally and its a mess. To operate legally you need this.

I know as you work in the industry you feel you must defend places on stuff like this but i’m sorry mate, it’s ludicrous that they ask for a selfie – there is a very clear photo of me on the actual passport, it’s not like it’s some easily attainable crappy ID card now is it.

Thats not why i defend it. Yes it may have your pic but they dont know what you look like. Coud put over a pic of Ryan Gosling and they wouldnt know. So i defend it not because i work there, but if you see what people move money to accomplish through caisnos (Drugs, terrorism, immigration, illegal takeovers) then it makes 100% sense

I’ve checked and it’s a Source of Wealth request. My deposits in March were twice my verified monthly income so they want my to demonstrate where the money has come from. Obviously a lot of that is recycled from withdrawals.

Send them bank statement for the month highlighting the withdrawals from other places, they have to accept it as gambling income is an income. Anything else they ask for they dont need.

Unless you took money from friends or family in that time… then they will ask for more, as it looks like borrowing to gamble. The joys of “gamcare”

I have sent in Driving Licence and payslip plus utility bill, selfie with bank card, colour picture of bank card etc as part of verification- but apparently my level of deposits now requires KYC additional verification- this list of acceptable stuff is a bit odd for example I could provide a letter from a benefactor! I don’t have the list to hand but the letter from my company seems the easiest to provide but I am wary for the reasons above stated

Thats weird. Obviously I dont know your level of deposits, but im guessing 5 figures monthly for this type of range of requests.

However – if you are UK based and playing on the UK site then source of wealth, ID, address and the required info they already have is more than enough (I work in iGaming so I know).

If Bronn is king at the end my life is happy.

I have a bet on Littlefinger though @20/1. Just saying

I’ll respond on behalf of the gambling industry.

Many reasons. It makes people stay longer. It shows volatility. It’s hard to program in a min win without affecting overall rtp and payouts.

Mostly – psychology. The longer people chase the more providers make. Simple.

Haha, ive been exactly there. I got 2nd in a Big Bad Wolf for 500 when JP was 2k. I had 106 spins left and was 8 points behind with 2 mins to go.

In rolls the bonus. Problem is you cant skip it. The bonus retriggered twice and paid 120x. Problem was it took 5 minutes to run.

If that spin counted as i believe it should (Spin was clicked before deadine) id have won!

Reel races are stressful!
