Account verification ended up in my account being closed and delayed £130 withdrawals


5 years ago
Hello there,

I have deposited thousands of pound into my account for many years in Casumo.

I have had my account verified and when I lastly deposited an amount of £10 and requested a withdraw of £90(won) - I ended up getting a document verification request. Which I have submitted and in the meantime while waiting I deposited another £10 and requested a withdraw request of £40(won).

After 5 days of waiting and endless amount of chat requests. I have received an e-mail saying:

Casumo account verification
We were not able to verify some of your uploaded documents. Please log in and check the account verification tab for more info.

And why gambling companies sometimes need to ask for more details around your finances

Hours later:

Hi Ali,

I hope this email finds you well!

In order to create a safe and secure gambling environment and in line with regulations, we are regularly reviewing accounts, taking into consideration any source of wealth you have provided and comparing that to the level of spend on your account.

We also need to take into consideration, your affordability which means looking at your income and any regular expenses that you would need to meet on a monthly basis.

We have reviewed your account and based on our calculations your are spending more than your monthly affordability. For this reason we have closed your account from our end to ensure that gambling at Casumo does not become a financial burden in the long run.

We do understand that this is not the outcome you’ve expected, however, it is an action taken with your best interest in mind.

The following link to the Gambling Commission website provides a bit more information o this matter http:/­/ww­w.g­amb­lin­gco­mmi­ssi­on.g­ov.uk­/fo­r-t­he-­pub­lic­/Sa­fer­-ga­mbl­ing­/Wh­y-d­oes­-a-­gam­bli­ng-­com­pan­y-w­ant­-to­-kn­ow-­abo­ut-­you­r-f­ina­nce­s.aspx.

I have come to realise that reviews on Trust for the past few days were also negative - as almost the majority of the gamblers were requested to submit a document and ended up in the situation I currently am.

I requested a withdrawal of £130 to my account via chat and sent an e-mail in regards this and no reply, whatsoever.

I really hope that Casumo will be able to sort this out and I will be more than happy to choose another Casino to spend my earning at.

Dear @alivalentin,

Hi there ALIVALENTIN,

First of all, we sincerely apologize for not getting back to you on this one - I understand how frustrating that must be, however, please rest assured that we have a new team handling complaints now who are more than happy to help you with any challenges you may be facing.

From the sounds of it, your account was previously closed due to affordability. We perform affordability checks to see if players play within their monthly affordability, as we do want to make sure players do not use funds they cannot afford to lose. This is why we ask for a payslip showing the regular monthly income and also a bank statement showing the incoming wages. Despite not depositing high amounts, we do want to make sure all players are comfortable with their spend.

These decisions are made with your best interest and wellbeing in mind and are based on guidelines from the UKGC.

As I cannot look up nor discuss account specific details through a public forum such as AskGamblers, I'm afraid I can't see the current status of your account, however, I do hope that your funds have now been successfully received.

If you are still facing any issues, please do not hesitate to get back in touch.

Wishing you all the very best,

Casumo

Verification of identification failed for a week
Hi Askgamblers,

I won 60 000$ on casino casino. I withdrawn 8000$ and got all 4 Interac payments. Then I won 52 000$ few days later. Since then they ask for verification process: proof of address, proof of identification and other documents.

- I passed the address verification (verified) quick
- Proof of identification (Constantly Rejected)

I asked for a manual verification after 15-20 times being rejected. My documents and IDs are valid and legal and delivered accordingly by my State Government.

Talked with the fraud Department and they told me they would push the case further. Talked with the support live chat ( also told me they opened a ticket to get this verified manually and get my documents verified). 4 days ago. They told me they would contact me via email but since then no answer no email return after 3 more reply from my side. (Radio silence) Can’t withdraw my money.

It’s been more than a week trying to get verified sending perfect crystal clear pictures of my IDs, bank account statements, health insurance card ID, and selfies. Reasons for failing to verify. They then asked for my passport which I don’t have because I don’t travel. 4 days without any update neither a reply to my 5 recent emails. Went to chat 4-5 times repeating the same things.

- wrong documents
- too blurry
- missing information

The list goes on.

I’m asking Casumo to take the matter higher and get my IDs approved manually checked by the verification team. Which I already sent all documents they asked via email.

Withdrawals still pending after 3 weeks

I am writing to make a formal complaint regarding the handling of my account and withdrawals with Cosumo Casino.

I deposited funds into my account and played using only my own deposited money. I did not use any bonuses, promotions, or additional offers at any stage.

Following my gameplay, I made two withdrawal requests:

  • £200 on 22 April 2026
  • £3,210 on 24 April 2026

Both withdrawals were immediately placed into a pending status while I was asked to complete a verification process. I fully cooperated with all requests made by your team and supplied every document requested, including identification documents, photographs, and any other verification information required. I was eventually informed that my account had been fully verified.

Since completing verification, I have repeatedly attempted to contact your company to understand why my withdrawals continue to be delayed. For the past several weeks, I have contacted your live chat service on most days, often twice per day, asking for updates and explanations.

Unfortunately, I have received no meaningful assistance whatsoever. The live chat agents continually provide automated or generic responses and nobody has been able to explain:

  • Why my withdrawals have not been processed
  • Why there is still a delay after full verification
  • Whether there are any further issues with my account
  • Whether any further information is required from me

I also raised a formal complaint over a week ago and only received an acknowledgement email. Since then, I have sent eight separate follow-up emails requesting updates and asking for an explanation, yet none of these emails have received a response.

At no point have I been informed of any issue with my account, nor have I been asked to provide any additional documents or information. I have complied fully with every request made by your company.

I am now 80 years old and this situation has caused me considerable stress, both mentally and physically. I simply want my withdrawals processed and my money returned to me. Instead, I feel I am being ignored and sent in circles without any proper communication or support.

I have attached copies of:

  • My emails requesting updates
  • The acknowledgement of my complaint
  • Screenshots of my live chat conversations over the past several weeks

These attachments clearly demonstrate the repeated lack of response and the failure to provide any meaningful explanation regarding my withdrawals.

Pending withdrawal after everything verified
I am submitting this complaint due to an unreasonable and prolonged delay in processing my withdrawals with Casumo, combined with a lack of transparency and inconsistent information from customer support.

My account is fully verified. There are no pending documents and no outstanding requests from Casumo. I have already provided my source of funds from my employment, which has been reviewed and verified, as it has been previously.

No bonus was used at any point. All gameplay was conducted using my own deposited funds only, without any promotional bonuses or wagering conditions involved.

Despite this, my withdrawals have now been pending for over 11 days, which is well beyond the timeframe stated in Casumo’s Terms and Conditions. During this period, I have contacted live chat numerous times and spoken with multiple agents. Each time, I receive the same generic responses, such as:

– “Your withdrawal is processing.”

– “It is a large payout.”

– “The relevant team is reviewing the matter.”

– “You will be contacted by email.l”

However, no concrete explanation, reason for delay, or clear timeframe has ever been provided. No additional documents have been requested, and no compliance issues have been communicated to justify the continued delay.

I have acted in good faith throughout this process, complied fully with all requirements, and remained patient and cooperative. I am not seeking any special treatment — only the processing of a legitimate withdrawal of funds that I personally deposited, in line with Casumo’s own policies.

At this stage, I feel that I am being kept in a repetitive loop without meaningful information or accountability. This situation undermines trust in the payment process and leaves the customer without clarity or recourse.

I am opening this complaint to seek transparency and resolution, as internal support has not been able to provide a clear answer or timeframe after more than 2 weeks

I remain confident that this issue can and should be resolved promptly and fairly.

Withdrawals not received

Hi, hope you are ok

I made a withdrawal request totaling £14000 on 06.09.25, whilst my account is already fully verified.

Until today, I have not received anything.

I have sent several emails and several times reached out to live chat with the team. They are saying the same thing; we are waiting for the withdrawal team to proceed. When I deposit £500,& and I lose £ 800, and I deposit £500 again. When I lost and won a small amount, no one asked for any documents, and they paid me as well. Because my account was already verified at that time. But when I win the large amount of £14000. First, they paused my game, and I received this email. In line with a new business direction, we've had to put a permanent game type exclusion for a specific category/vertical. Then they decided my deposit limit is just £10,

Still, my game is paused just because of winning that amount.

I talk on live chat 3/4 times for about a pending withdrawal, and I ask if they need anything. They are saying all verification is done, so no need to send anything. Because you win a large amount, that's why it's taking a long time to process. And someone said on live chat just over the weekend, the payments were delayed, so no need to worry

Someone said this and that on live chat. Think so, I ask so many times about my pending payment. That's why the verification team asked me to send some documents like a driving license, selfie with driving license, bank statement,s this & that. And I have already provided what they asked me, but I have still not received my payment.

It's very disappointing to me.
