Blocking a withdrawal with unreasonable request for medical certificate
I deposited funds and later attempted to withdraw my balance from 1xBet. First, the bookmaker asked me to provide standard identity verification documents, which I submitted successfully. After that, instead of processing my withdrawal, they refused and demanded that I provide a medical certificate proving that I do not suffer from a gambling addiction, signed by a doctor and stamped by a clinic.
I carefully reviewed 1xBet’s published Terms and Conditions, including the Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) policies. While they mention that the company may request documents or further checks in cases of doubt, these checks are clearly intended to verify identity, authenticity, or address information and AML compliance. Nowhere do the rules authorize the company to demand medical evidence relating to a customer’s personal health or psychological status.
Such a request goes beyond the scope of KYC/AML verification, intrudes into personal medical privacy, and is not part of the contractual obligations players agree to when opening an account. This makes the demand unreasonable, unjustified, and outside of their stated policy.
I request AskGamblers to review this case and mediate that 1xBet processes my withdrawal without imposing additional, arbitrary conditions outside their published rules.
