Withdrawal and Verification Issue Arabic government Documents Not Supported


3 months ago

I am submitting this complaint regarding 20Bet, which is listed on your website with high rating and clearly states that it accepts players from Egypt.


After registering and attempting to withdraw it got reject after 24 hours of being pending because I need to verify my account , I was informed by 20Bet that identity documents must be in Latin or Cyrillic characters, as they do not support Arabic documents.

This creates a serious issue for Egyptian players.

All official government-issued documents in Egypt are issued in Arabic, including:

* National rID

* Driver’s license

* Utility bills

* Bank statements

* Mobile service payment confirmations

Since 20Bet accepts players from Egypt, rejecting Arabic documents makes it practically impossible for Egyptian players to complete verification and withdraw their funds.


My passport is expired. Renewing it requires time and significant cost, and it is not a mandatory document in Egypt. Requiring a passport when a valid national ID is available is unreasonable, especially when the casino officially accepts Egyptian players.


I have asked 20Bet the following questions, but I have not received a clear solution:

How can an Egyptian player complete verification if Arabic documents are not accepted?

Do they accept certified translations of Arabic documents?

If Arabic documents and certified translations are rejected, does this mean Egyptian players cannot withdraw their funds?


I registered on 20Bet primarily because of the rating on Askgamblers which gave me confidence in the platform. However, this verification restriction directly contradicts what you stated on 20Bet ( Accepts players from Egypt but the Egyptian governmental documents required in the verification process are not supported and gets rejected.


I respectfully request your kind

clarification whether this practice is acceptable for a casino that state “Accepts players from Egypt”!!!!

Intervene with 20Bet to provide a practical and fair solution or you must lower the casino rating and highlight about players from Arabic countries the site thankfully only accepts there deposits and never process withdrawal for them as they will never be able to verify there accounts !!!


At the moment, I am unable to complete verification and withdraw my funds due to this restriction.

I am requesting your assistance to resolve this matter fairly and ensure that Egyptian players are not placed in a position where you can deposit but cannot verify and withdraw .

Note: Specially when you try to withdraw after performing the second deposit and request to withdrawa 4 times the deposited amount that’s why I think I have unrealistic to technically applicable by any means which looks like a way of scaming by not paying winners “unfortunately !!!!“

Dear @Sheriftoukhy,

Following a careful review and consideration of your case, the AskGamblers Complaint Team reached the conclusion that, unfortunately, your complaint is not compliant with the AGCCS Guidelines, section Balance played off while waiting to be paid and, therefore, is being rejected. Please keep in mind that following all AGCCS Guidelines is mandatory.

Please keep in mind that while we can understand your frustration and disappointment of probably not being paid within the time frame specified by the operator, it is up to you to refrain from playing until the processing of your payment is finalized accordingly. Instead, you kept playing and lost your balance subsequently which means that unfortunately, you will also lose the validity of your claim against the operator which led to the rejection of the complaint.

And while we understand this might not be the outcome expected by the complainant, we would like to remind you that in case of disagreement with our decision further assistance on the matter could be requested from the relevant regulatory body and/or appointed ADR entity.

My account was finally verified, but unfortunately it came too late. During the entire month while they delayed the verification, I lost all my winnings. What is very suspicious is that the account was verified using the exact same documents I had already submitted many times before. Only after I raised the complaint here did the verification suddenly get approved. Otherwise, I believe they would have been rejected and asking impossible requests

Thanks Askgamblers for your usual support and you can close the case and please re-access your very high rating !!!

Withdrawal delay despite completed verification and respected limits
Hello AskGamblers team,

I am submitting a complaint regarding delayed withdrawals from an online casino, despite full account verification and compliance with all stated withdrawal limits.

Casino details
• Casino name: 20Bet
• Website used: bet20play.com (official 20Bet domain used for my account)
• Country of residence: Switzerland
• Withdrawal method: Bank transfer (IBAN – UBS Switzerland)

Chronology
• 21 December: I requested several withdrawals (22’130 CHF) each within the allowed limits.
• My account is fully verified (ID, selfie, residence permit, proof of deposit, bank details).
• One withdrawal was marked as “Successful” by the casino.
• Other withdrawals remain in “Processing” status, despite:
• daily limit: 4,000 USD
• weekly limit: 10,000 USD
• these limits not being exceeded.

As of today, no funds have been received on my bank account, despite the “Successful” status being shown on the casino side.

Issue
• The casino confirms withdrawals internally, but funds are not credited.
• No clear explanation is provided as to why:
• only one withdrawal is finalized,
• others remain stuck in “processing”,
• and no concrete payment timeline is communicated.

What I am requesting
• Confirmation that the withdrawal marked as “Successful” has actually been sent to the banking system.
• A clear execution schedule for the remaining withdrawals.
• Mediation to ensure withdrawals are completed in accordance with the casino’s own terms and conditions.

I am not requesting special treatment — only the execution of withdrawals already approved and compliant with the stated limits.

Thank you in advance for your assistance. I am available to provide any supporting documents (screenshots, emails, verification proof).

Kind regards !
