Unable to Receive OTP for Login and Withdrawal


8 months ago

Dear 1xBet Support,

I am unable to receive the OTP required to access my account and withdraw my funds. I restarted my phone, and since then, I have been logged out. Now I’m being told I’m in a new location, and I can’t get OTP to verify and log back in.


I have completed full registration and verification already.

- Issue: Not receiving OTP for login and withdrawal

- Time of issue: 4th of September 2025

- Location: Nigeria


Please resolve this issue urgently. Your email support has been very unresponsive, and I have funds in the account that I need to access.


Regards,

Holding my winnings hostage with endless KYC delays

Dear AskGamblers Complaints Team,

I am filing this formal arbitration request against 1xBet for its predatory, unethical, and systematic refusal to payout my legitimate sports betting winnings of MYR 3,504.50. The operator is intentionally abusing the KYC process to hold my funds hostage, hoping to wear down my patience so I will gamble my winnings back.

Below is the irrefutable timeline of 1xBet’s deliberate stalling tactics:

* May 19, 2026 (Deposit & Win): I made three separate deposits via bank card, totaling MYR 610. I placed a legitimate bet on a sports match and won MYR 2,284.50, bringing my total account balance to MYR 2894.50.

* May 19, 2026 (The Payout Block): I submitted a withdrawal request for MYR 2,500. 1xBet instantly blocked my payout with a "Document required" alert. I contacted their security team immediately on the same day.

* May 19 – 21, 2026 (Phase 1): They demanded proof of my deposit history, National ID, and personal selfies. I fully complied and submitted everything on time.

* May 22, 2026 (Phase 2 Delay): Instead of approving my payout, they dragged the process further by demanding Utility Bills. I submitted it immediately.

* May 26, 2026 (Phase 3 Delay): They prolonged the delay again, demanding photos of my Driver’s License. I submitted it immediately.

* May 29, 2026 (Phase 4 Delay): They came back with yet another piecemeal demand for my Passport photos. I submitted it immediately.

* June 1, 2026 (Latest Robotic Response): Today, after 13 consecutive days of total cooperation, instead of processing my funds, they sent me yet another automated canned response stating: "Your request is still under review... We kindly ask for your patience."

The Breach of Regulatory Conduct:

Since May 19th, 1xBet has provided absolutely zero transparent communication regarding the status or timeframe of my verification. This is a textbook "Piecemeal KYC" strategy, which is heavily penalized under international gambling regulations. By requesting one document every two days and providing automated silence, 1xBet is intentionally weaponizing the verification process as a predatory psychological trap to delay payouts for low-tier winnings.

My identity is fully verified, and my deposit funds are clean. I have zero account violations.

I respectfully request the AskGamblers Team to officially intervene, investigate this predatory conduct, and compel 1xBet to release/approve my withdrawal immediately. I am attaching full, chronological screenshot evidence of all my document submissions, betting history, and 1xBet's repetitive robotic email responses.

RM2,500
Locked my 5200 USD balance for 9 days through endless KYC document requests

Player ID: < sent to casino >

Ticket Number: #93370959

Verification process started: May 17, 2026, 12:20 PM

Current status: Day 9, account locked, full balance of $5,200 inaccessible


CASE SUMMARY:


On May 17, 2026, I attempted to withdraw funds from my 1xBet account,

where my total balance is $5,200. The withdrawal request triggered a

"Data Change" verification process (ticket #93370959). Since then, my

account has been locked and I cannot access any of my own funds.


IMPORTANT: Deposits via Polymarket cryptocurrency wallet were processed

without any verification requirement. The KYC process was initiated

ONLY upon withdrawal request.


DOCUMENTS PROVIDED (all submitted in full):


1. Turkish national ID card (front and back)

2. Selfie holding ID card with security email correspondence visible

on screen (in the exact format requested)

3. Driver's license

4. Official residence certificate from Turkish e-Government system

(QR-verifiable)

5. Natural gas, water, electricity, and internet bills

6. Polymarket cryptocurrency wallet screenshots

7. Polygonscan blockchain transaction hashes (publicly verifiable):

- 0xe5e419568e9727fe1306a5340d5ed214fb070a33fb61b0e6d243e1918000d806

- 0x0c432c30f84ebd689d8280e1a7321ce8b0f6f58c2b27754461e7f60faa6a405c

8. 1xBet deposit receipts: 21629228987 and 21629161081

9. Handwritten verification code with selfie (today, day 9)


TIMELINE OF DELAY TACTICS:


The verification process has been deliberately extended through

sequential document requests. Each time I provide a requested document,

a new one is requested instead of completing the verification. The

72-hour clock effectively resets with each new document request,

making the "maximum 72 hours" clause in 1xBet's Terms and Conditions

meaningless.


CONFLICTING TIME COMMITMENTS:


1. 1xBet Terms and Conditions: "Verification can take up to 72 hours

from receipt of documents"

2. Live support agent Kerem (May 18): "Security team responds within

72 hours"

3. Brand representative on Şikayetvar (Turkish complaint platform):

"Process can take up to 11 days"

4. Live support today: "We cannot provide a definite timeframe"


These four statements directly contradict each other. The operator

is now at Day 9 (216 hours), nearly 3x the original Terms and

Conditions commitment.


PATTERN OF EVASION:


- Security email ([email protected]) sent identical

copy-paste responses 5+ times: "Documents under review, please wait."

- Live support agents (Kerem, Birol, Mine, Sarp) all gave identical

templated responses and refused to escalate the case.

- Telegram official channel admin acknowledged "I cannot contribute

to your case but I will forward it" — no result followed.


VIOLATION CLAIMS:


1. Breach of 1xBet's own Terms and Conditions (72-hour maximum

verification clause)

2. Discriminatory KYC enforcement (deposits not verified, only

withdrawals)

3. Inconsistent verification process (no upfront document list,

indefinite expansion of requirements)

4. Failure to provide reasonable customer service or escalation

path despite multiple requests


EXPECTED RESOLUTION:


1. Immediate completion of the verification process

2. Release of my full account balance of $5,200, which I have been

unable to access for 9 days

3. Written confirmation that no further documents will be requested

4. Acknowledgment of the time commitment violation


PERSONAL IMPACT:


I have been financially harmed by this delay. I had to borrow money

to cover obligations during this period while my own funds remain

locked. The verification process has crossed the line from due

diligence into systematic obstruction.


All correspondence, email records, live chat screenshots, and

blockchain proof are available and will be attached or provided

upon request.


Thank you for your mediation.
