Account opened on 23 May 2022 with a deposit of Euro 413 paid using bitcoin.
Another deposit was made 24 May 2022 of Euro 399 again with bitcoin.

Current balance is Euro 50,588.25 that they refuse to pay out.

I have played mostly the live dealer games, dragon tiger.
I made a number of withdrawals of Euro 500 to Euro 750 between 25 May and 31 May 2022

On 31 May 2022 I had a very good run on the Dragon Tiger and my balance reach Euro 50,588.25
I tried to withdraw Euro 2,000 and my account was blocked.

This is when the email correspondence with security started.
I have always answered the questions they have asked, and have sent all the documents they ask of me.
In return, their emails are aggressive in nature, accusatory, and do not answer questions asked. They repeatable ask for the same information, and claim not receive pictures that are sent.

May 31: Ask me to enter all the details on my account online, which I did.
May 31: Ask me to send passport pictures, which I did.
May 31: They claim not received.
May 31: I send passport pictures again.
May 31: They claim passport pictures are not high enough quality, and cropped.
May 31: I send again,
May 31: They say to send uncompressed pictures.
May 31: I am told to wait for an answer from the specialists.
June 1: I am asked for a selfie holding passport, by my face, infront of the email they sent
June 2 to June 4: I send numerous versions as they request. They keep saying the quality isn’t good enough, or they cannot see the data. This is simply not true. The quality was Hi-Res, and all data could be seen as they requested. I am happy to send you these pictures to review.
June 5: They ask for a copy of my drivers license, which I send.
June 5: They ask for another copy of the drivers license, with a different background, which I send.
June 6: They ask for higher quality. I say I sent high quality. They then say they didn’t receive them So I send again.
June 6: I am told data is under verification.
June 9: I receive a request (in Russian) to send a utility bill.
(This means they must now have accepted my passport and my drivers license.)
June 10: I send a utility bill, as requested and I am told my data is under verification.
June 12: I am asked for colored photos of Passport OF National ID card.
I reply and say I already sent my passport, why are they asking for it again.

This is their response:
Please pay attention to the requirements of the Security Department, otherwise further actions are impossible.
Dear user, please provide us with colored photos of your national ID card (both sides, please) or the main page of your passport. Photos must be in JPG format.
Scanned copies and screenshots are not accepted for verification. The photos should not be cropped, all data and whole document should be visible and readable on the photo.

As already said, I have sent the passport that they requested. And so I email again and tell them this.

June 13: They reply and say that want my National ID Card.
And also this threatening email:

The Company’s management is entitled to request at their discretion any documents from the bettor substantiating their identity or other data they have provided (for example, passport details, residential address), as well as to cancel any payments until all such details have been verified. The Company also reserves the right to inform the regulatory bodies and local authorities of such fraudulent actions performed by the player.

I have now sent the National ID card as well.
They rejected, saying it was not high enough quality.
The files were 4mb each, and clear. All data is visible.
They simply reject everything that is sent!

In total I have sent numerous emails including:
Passport Front and back.
Selfies of me holding passport by my face, infront of my email account showing the email from them
Utility bill
National ID card

They still refuse to pay out my Euro 50,588.25
They continue to ask for multiple pictures of ID, utility bills etc. I have provided all that they request. And it is clear I am who I say I am. They are simply refusing to pay out.

Issue with withdrawal
22bet ID: 1194201819
I am writing to request your assistance regarding an ongoing issue with 22Bet that has left me unable to access my funds.

I decided to join 22Bet after reading positive reviews and recommendations about the casino on AskGamblers. Based on those reviews, I believed 22Bet was a trustworthy and reputable operator. I created an account, completed the verification process, and started playing on the platform.

Initially, I lost approximately CAD 20,000. Throughout my time playing, all deposits and withdrawals were processed almost instantly, and I never experienced any issues. My account was fully verified, and everything appeared to be operating normally.

However, this month my withdrawal request was suddenly declined. When I contacted customer support, I was instructed to contact the Security Department by email.

The Security Department first requested a copy of my identification document. I promptly provided a clear and valid copy. They then requested additional photos of the same ID from different angles and backgrounds. Although I found this unusual, I fully cooperated and submitted the requested documents.

After that, I was asked to provide proof of funds. Since a significant portion of the money I deposited originated from winnings previously earned and withdrawn from 22Bet itself, I provided evidence supporting this. Despite my cooperation, I received only the following response:

“Please pay attention to the requirements of the Security Department, otherwise further actions are impossible.”

I consider this response unprofessional and unclear. It does not explain what specific information is missing or what additional documents are required. Simply stating that “further actions are impossible” without providing clear guidance is not an acceptable way to communicate with a customer who has fully cooperated throughout the verification process.

Considering they might need first deposit .I prepared a detailed PDF document containing an explanation letter and a step-by-step breakdown of the source of my funds. I also included evidence showing how the money was transferred to my 22Bet account. Part of the funds originated from winnings at BC.Game, a platform where I have never experienced any issues with withdrawals.

Previously, support representatives would respond within an hour. However, after I submitted the requested documents and explanation, communication has significantly slowed, and I have been waiting a long time without receiving any meaningful response.

I have fully complied with every request made by 22Bet and have provided all documents requested so far. I am therefore asking AskGamblers to intervene and help resolve this matter. I simply want my withdrawal processed.

I chose 22Bet because of its positive reputation and the reviews I read on AskGamblers. As a loyal customer who has deposited and lost substantial amounts on the platform, I did not expect to encounter these issues when attempting to withdraw my funds.

I have attached the file so you can also take a look that how professional and organized file I made and sent to them

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your support in resolving this matter

Unexpected problem with Wallet ID
1. Introduction and Background
I am filing this formal complaint against 22Bet Casino regarding the unjustified freezing of my funds and an impassable verification process. I registered my account on February 22, 2026. From the outset, I explicitly waived all welcome bonuses to ensure my play remained unrestricted by wagering requirements—a fact confirmed by the casino’s support team (see attached transcripts).

2. Account Activity and Initial Compliance
During my initial period of play, just only on a Live Roulette, I maintained a positive balance and successfully executed two withdrawals to my original source of funds. No problems at all . At that stage, the casino’s support was responsive, and no compliance issues were raised.

My current balance stands at approximately $1,000 USD.

3. The Verification Deadlock (KYC/AML)
The issue arose when I attempted to access my account to continue playing and found it restricted. I was requested to undergo an additional KYC process, including the submission of identity documents and selfies, all of which were provided promptly.
However, the Security Team has since entered a repetitive and logically flawed cycle, requesting the following:

"Provide us with the screenshots from the site or app where Crypto currency deposits were bought."

4. Technical and Legal Arguments
I have repeatedly clarified to 22Bet Security that the source of funds is a non-custodial "Trust Wallet".
• Nature of the Wallet: These wallets are decentralized and anonymous by design; they do not hold personal data.
• Source of Funds: The crypto assets were purchased with cash at a physical point of sale, not through a centralized exchange (CEX) or website. Therefore, the requested "purchase screenshot" is a physical and technical impossibility.
• Evidence Provided: I have submitted the full blockchain traceability (Transaction IDs) proving the funds originated from my wallet.
• Arbitrary Rejection: The casino summarily dismissed this evidence, stating: "Screenshots from the etherscan website are not accepted for verification."

5. Grounds for Complaint
The casino's refusal to accept blockchain evidence—the only objective proof for cryptocurrency—while demanding non-existent documentation from a decentralized wallet, constitutes a procedural deadlock.
Furthermore, 22Bet does not explicitly state that users are prohibited from using non-custodial wallets (like Trust Wallet), nor did they flag this during the initial deposits and withdrawals.

6. Desired Resolution
I request the assistance of AskGamblers to mediate the following:

1. Restoration of Access: Immediate access to my legitimate funds ($1,000 USD).

2. Verification Completion: Recognition of the blockchain traceability provided as valid proof of ownership, given the decentralized nature of the wallet.

3. Account Normalization: The right to continue playing without further discriminatory questioning regarding my choice of a standard, legitimate crypto wallet.
Status rejected Rejected
