Blocking a withdrawal with unreasonable request for medical certificate


1 year ago
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.

What verification paperwork you refer @AskGamblers?

Medical or mental health information is very sensitive. Asking for this goes far beyond standard identity (name, address, ID) or “AML/KYC” checks, which are limited to identity, residence, financial source, maybe proof of address, etc.

I reiterate that I have provided all identity check documents (only passport requested), non conventional health certificates are not a part of a KYC and no such legal type of document exist to proof no gambling addiction in my country.

Have you checked my attached photos? Casino claims that they want to make sure that I can responsibly use my funds by requesting a health certificate, my claim is to get back my deposit, no winnings involved just my legal funds.

My identity is verified by passport, I have a double registration, okay let the casino void my bonuses (none exists), void my winnings (none exists) and let me withdraw my funds, I see they provided this resolution in other similar cases on this website, they need any additional standard identity verification checks to let me withdraw my funds? I can provide it I'm eager (source of income, address proof etc), but what they request with the no gambling addiction health certificate is physically impossible to acquire in my country, not a part of standard identity verification check.

There is no physical possibility to send you the document you have requested which I reiterate is not an identity verification document not a part of KYC, you intentionally move the situation to a deadlock with clear intent to not refund me my own funds (not winnings) by requesting arbitrary documents which are not issued in my country and I'm sure in most of the countries in the world, its an invented document category so I consider you request out of terms and condition, and any document doesnt mean you can create arbitrary document categories which are non existent.

I urge you to to return my deposit, as my identity is clearly verified, I'mm eager to provide any other identity verifying documents. Real world documents, not a non existing document category you ask.

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 >
