Account verification refusal and withheld funds


7 months ago

Hello AskGamblers team,

I am filing this complaint against 1xBet for refusing to verify my account and withholding my funds despite my full compliance with every verification request they have made. Account ID: 1440153259.

On January 21st, I attempted to withdraw my balance following a winning parlay bet settled in my favor after Bodø/Glimt defeated Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League. My withdrawal was blocked with the message: "ERROR — speak with customer service."

Since then, I have sent 1xBet 15 emails. They have not responded to a single one. My only means of communication is live chat, where agents routinely cut off sessions, paste boilerplate responses, request documents I have already provided, place me on extended holds, and instruct me to return in one hour, three hours, or 72 hours.

I have provided every document requested of me, including old and new passports, selfies for verification, screenshots of my sent emails as proof of prior submissions, and screenshots of my cryptocurrency wallet deposits.

The turning point came when 1xBet demanded personal information tied to my cryptocurrency wallet. I explained that I use a self-custody wallet, which by design does not have a registered name or email. I nevertheless provided documentation that satisfied their stated request. They then claimed that what I provided was not what they originally asked for. I have documented evidence proving that it was exactly what they asked for.

I have a substantial balance on my account. Because I was able to log in and continue using the platform, I initially believed this was a routine KYC process and continued to play. I now understand that 1xBet has no intention of completing verification. Their conduct, the unanswered emails, the shifting demands, and the outright contradiction of their own prior requests constitute bad faith. I am requesting AskGamblers' intervention to resolve this matter.

AskGamblers,

Either 1xbet was gaslighting me or their departments don't communicate. After their last message telling me to check the old email that has never worked, I tried logging in out of desperation. To my surprise, an OTP code arrived at my new email. I was able to log in. The email on my account had already been changed.

So while the person representing 1xbet here was telling me to go back to square one, the change had already been made. Why they couldn't say that, I don't know.

I've withdrawn all my funds and will no longer be playing with 1xbet. This six month nightmare is over. And if I hadn't tried logging in on my own, I never would have known.

This process has cost me countless nights of sleep and has genuinely affected my mental health. I hope anyone reading this thinks twice before playing at 1xbet, where locking a verified account for months and dragging out simple requests appears to be standard practice.

The anger I've felt through this process has turned me off sportsbooks entirely. I won't be back.

Thank you to AskGamblers for the mediation. It's a shame 1xbet had to waste so much of my time and your's.

Not a surprising response, same as the previous four. Let me restate the facts.

I contacted AskGamblers after weeks of failed communication with 1xbet. After back and forth in this thread, I provided everything they asked for and 1xbet confirmed, right here, that my account was verified and in good standing.

Since then, I've been trying to resolve one remaining issue: I don't receive OTP emails from 1xbet, which means I can't log in. I provided every document requested. The documents are the same ones they already approved during verification. Their own employees said this should take 24 hours.

It has been almost a month. Every response from 1xbet is a request for more time. For something that should take less than a minute.

This goes against the spirit of this mediation service. I don't know why 1xbet is behaving this way. I have some ideas.

1xbet: when is the latest I can expect to access my account? I want a date. There must be a deadline.

Withdrawal Method Still Unavailable

Dear AskGamblers Support,


I am submitting a new complaint regarding an ongoing withdrawal issue with 1xBet.


My name is < full name removed >

1xBet User ID: 504475939


I have been trying to withdraw my available balance from my 1xBet account. I originally attempted to withdraw using the same payment method that I had previously used successfully for both deposits and withdrawals. However, the withdrawal option was blank and greyed out, and I received the following message:

“Withdrawal can only be made using the same payment method.”


I contacted 1xBet Customer Support regarding this issue. Initially, they informed me that there was a technical problem with this withdrawal option. They then instructed me to use an alternative method by making a minimum deposit with a different payment method, placing a bet with the deposited amount at minimum odds of 1.10, and sending the required information for approval to [email protected].

These instructions were given to me directly by 1xBet Customer Support, and I followed them exactly. I made the required deposit using the new payment method, placed the required bet at minimum odds of 1.10, and sent all the requested information to the Security team as instructed.


However, I never received any approval or response from the Security team at all.


Despite not receiving any response or approval, I proceeded according to the instructions provided by Customer Support and submitted a withdrawal request using the new payment method but the withdrawal request was declined.


Unfortunately, 1xBet has not responded to either email, and I have not received any clear explanation or solution from customer support regarding my withdrawal.


I have attached all relevant evidence, including the original withdrawal error showing that the withdrawal option was blank and greyed out, my previous successful transactions, the new deposit, the required bet at minimum odds of 1.10, the information sent to the Security team, the new withdrawal request showing as declined, and the emails I sent to 1xBet.


I have followed the instructions provided directly by 1xBet Customer Support and completed everything requested from my side. I am simply trying to withdraw my existing available balance.


I therefore ask AskGamblers to contact 1xBet and assist in resolving this matter. I have followed their instructions, provided the requested information, and contacted them multiple times, but I have received no response or clear solution.


I would appreciate it if 1xBet could review my account, confirm the new payment method, and provide a clear solution so I can withdraw my funds without further delay.

Thank you for your assistance.

Withdrawal Marked as Processed but Funds Not Received

Dear AskGamblers Complaints Team,


I am submitting this complaint regarding an unresolved withdrawal issue with 1xBet.


On 09.09.2026 at 11:09 PM, I submitted a withdrawal request of 5,000 TRY via Bank Transfer. My account is fully verified (KYC completed), and I have satisfied all required terms and conditions.


In the system and transaction query logs, the status of this withdrawal shows as "Processed". However, the funds have NEVER been credited to my bank account.


I have contacted 1xBet local customer support dozens of times via live chat and email. Every single time, I receive the same repetitive and vague response: "We are working on it" / "İşlem üzerinde çalışıyoruz". No concrete solution, proof of transfer (RRN/bank receipt), or timeframe has been provided.


Even today, I received another generic email response from them stating they are still working on it, without providing any real update or resolving the issue.


To date, I have not received my payout. I kindly ask the AskGamblers team to assist me in mediating this dispute and requesting official proof of transfer or the release of my funds.


Summary Details:

  • Player ID: 231500185
  • Withdrawal Amount: 5,000 TRY
  • Date & Time of Request: 09.09.2026 / 11:09 PM
  • Transaction / E-Transfer ID: 5265542843
  • Payment Method: Bank Transfer
  • Current Status in System: Processed (but funds missing)


I am attaching all relevant proof, including screenshots of the "Processed" status, my bank statement showing the money was never received, my chat logs, and the latest email response I received today.


Thank you for your assistance.


Sincerely,

< first name removed >
