Hello Dear AskGamblers Officials,

I saw the GoldenBet casino in your references and wanted to try it. After 1 or 2 weeks of making a deposit on the site, everything was going normal, but towards the end, they slowly started to cause problems. I have successful deposits and successful withdrawals on the site. Until now, I have always made deposits and requested withdrawals using the same methods. Now I do not understand why they did this. I did not act against the rules and conditions of GoldenBet casino and I gambled normally. They asked for multiple verifications and unnecessary verifications to distract me, I completed all of these verifications, after completing them, they put my account under investigation, I am a victim of such things they do and my $2,100 money has been in my balance for almost a month, I need this money, I can neither withdraw my money nor go to the casino. I can't play, please, I request you to help me on this issue, I have not done anything wrong.

Account blocked with 17500 EURO for no reason

Dear AskGamblers Complaint Team,

Today I received an email from Goldenbet stating that my account had been permanently closed due to alleged violations of their Terms and Conditions specifically sections 10 (Anti-Fraud Policy) and 12 (Withdrawal and Refund Policy). They also stated that my full account balance had been forfeited as a result.

However:

I was never informed of the specific violation I allegedly committed.

I was not given a chance to respond, defend myself, or provide documentation.

I had completed all necessary verification steps to the best of my knowledge.

I used only one account, with my own identity and payment methods.

Goldenbet's Terms allow them to confiscate funds at their sole discretion without prior notice, which I believe is being applied unfairly and without due process in my case.

I am requesting AskGamblers' assistance to:

Help obtain a detailed explanation of the alleged violation.

Review whether the closure and fund seizure were justified.

Seek the return of my original deposit, at the very least, if no valid fraud has been proven.

I am willing to provide all relevant documentation, including ID, payment proofs, and account history, upon request.

They have blatantly robbed me and taken my money. Not only did they confiscate my winnings, but they also refused to refund my own deposited funds, which total tens of thousands of euros. I have done absolutely nothing wrong, I played like a normal customer, without violating any of their terms or engaging in any suspicious activity. They have requested verification from me at least six times, and I provided all required documents every single time. Despite complying fully, they continue to fabricate reasons to block my account and withhold my funds without any valid justification.

Goldenbet video verification

Hello!

I wanna make a complaint against goldenbet. First of all I am verified through their app and have made one successful withdrawal. Now when I tried making a second one, they asked me for video verification. So I sent everything they needed, and I got an email back that they have received the video and will contact me shortly. It has now been 8 days since I sent the video, and I have tried several times to email them why it's taking so long but I get no reply. Please help me, Thanks

Account under review

Withdrawal Blocked After Verification No Response for Over 10 Days

I would like to file a complaint regarding GoldenBet. After playing and requesting my first withdrawal, I was asked to complete identity verification, which I successfully passed. Then, they asked me to submit a verification video, which I did. According to their terms, the video should be reviewed within 2–3 days, but it's now been over 10 days, and I’ve received no response or update.

I contacted support around 10 times, but all I get are copy-pasted answers like “Sorry, it takes time, we can’t provide any more information.” When I ask them to forward my request to the verification department or allow me to speak to someone else, they refuse or even close the chat.

I also have screenshots clearly showing:

Their vague responses

How they end the chat when I ask to speak to another agent

At this point, I believe they are simply avoiding the withdrawal, offering no explanation and no willingness to help. I am still unable to access my funds, and no one is telling me why.

Please help resolve this situation. I am only asking for a fair review of my withdrawal request and access to my money.

Thank you in advance.

Account under investigation

Good day, dear AskGamblers team,

The respected GoldenBet casino is refusing to return my funds. I requested a withdrawal, after which they asked me to go through verification, which I did without any issues. I placed the withdrawal request and waited another day, but again the payment was declined, and the casino asked me to complete a video verification. I had never done this before and was very upset, I didn’t want to do it, but I had no choice. I completed the video verification and submitted the withdrawal request again. After another day, the withdrawal was rejected again, and I received an email saying my account is under investigation, with no clear time frame given. I asked them about the time frame 10 times, but they refused to answer. I said I was ready to cooperate, but once again, no one listened to me, and my request was rejected again, over and over.

My question is: why was I asked to complete verification and, even more strangely, a video verification if in the end they simply say "wait, I don't know when, and I don't know what"? What should I do about this?

Delayed payment video verification

I have USD 1,004 in my Goldenbet account and I have not been able to make withdrawals for more than a week. My account was already verified.

On Friday, October 25, I made a withdrawal, but the next day it was returned to my account. They sent me an email saying that I had to do the video verification, which I did on the same day, October 26, they told me that it would take between 24-48 hours to do the verification.

During the past week I sent several emails asking why the verification had not yet been done and they told me that they were still verifying the video and that I should continue waiting. In the live chat they told me that they were still verifying the video and I should continue waiting.

It's been more than a week and the video verification has still not been done, which is why I cannot make withdrawals.

I hope this review will get the verification process done so we can resolve this issue.

I await your response. Thank you so much.

Frustrating and Unacceptable Service from Goldenbet

Frustrating and Unacceptable Service from Goldenbet – Over 10 Days for Verification, Withdrawal Blocked

I am writing this review to express my deep dissatisfaction with the service I have experienced from Goldenbet. It has been over 10 days since I submitted a video for account verification, and I am yet to receive any concrete feedback or update on its status.

Every time I reach out to the support team, I am met with vague responses stating that my account is “still under review” and that I should “wait for verification.” No further explanation is provided, and no timeline is offered. When I try to clarify the situation through the live chat, I am told to verify my account… which is exactly what I have been waiting to do for more than 10 days now.

This lack of transparency is particularly frustrating because, without this verification, it is impossible for me to withdraw my money. I am essentially locked out of accessing my own funds due to this never-ending verification process. If additional time or specific documents are required, this should be communicated clearly to the user. Instead, I am caught in a frustrating loop with no real progress or solution in sight.

I understand that verifications can take time, but it is unreasonable to leave a customer in the dark for so long, especially when it directly impacts their ability to access their funds. This experience has seriously damaged my trust in Goldenbet, and I am beginning to question whether this is the kind of service I want to continue using in the future.

I hope this review pushes the team to take immediate action to resolve this issue and to provide a more efficient and transparent verification process for their customers, so that situations like this do not occur again.

Delayed payment video verification

I have a balance of €1745.33 with Goldenbet. My account is already verified and have previously had no issues with deposits or withdrawals. In recent weeks my sports bets have been restricted and I can only place multiples where price is 1.3 or bigger. After this I tried to withdraw my full balance but the following day it was returned to my account. They sent me an email stating I needed to do video verification which I did following morning on 05/09/24. They said it would be done in around 24 hours, then they said 48 hours, then it was this week in business days and now they are saying 19th September before it will be reviewed. Withdrawals were blocked on my account but they were still letting me place bets until I asked them to block the bet function until withdrawal issue was resolved.
