Verification Process taking too long, why? $NZ 2,000


3 years ago

I was already verified and they asked me to do it again even though their terms and conditions say you only have to do it once. I had made a $2000 withdrawal and then was asked to re-verify. I submitted the docs and all were accepted but the banking information doc. It asks you to send a screenshot of your bank showing your last deposit, which I did. It was rejected. I sent another and another and another.

Each time a new screenshot with the same transaction via gigadat showing the last deposit I made to their site. Each time I had to wait 48 hours for them to review. The first time they said my name wasn't on it (it was, on the right hand side of screenshot) then they said it didn't show the right transaction, (it did, but the date is different than their site lists because my bank is in Canada and their site is in New Zealand) then they said the transaction wasn't showing (it was, but they didn't look to the bottom of doc to see it) then they finally emailed to say they needed a PDF of the bank information (which I immediately sent via chat, email and verification) and now I have to wait another 48 hours which will roll into a weekend so I will actually wait four or five days for them to verify because they can't actually get a real person in verification to do it right away when there is an issue. it will be over two weeks by the time they verify (if they don't find another excuse) and another minimum two days after that for the transfer of my money.

I have all docs and chats and emails to back this up. I play on a few sites and this is the only one that has harassed me like this for verification. Anytime I have sent the exact list of docs they ask for for any other site I was verified right away or if there was a small issue I could deal with someone in support and get it corrected right away. This is ridiculous and just looks to me like a withhold of money to earn interest or something. Like they hope you will give up and not withdraw.

I will not play here again after this experience.

Pokerstars took one day to verify and their withdrawals are the same day, for example. I don't understand casinos that don't have a live verification process to ensure that when they have an issue the customer can resolve for them quickly so there are no delays with withdrawals. It just comes off scammy to me.

The crazy thing is I verified with them once before and it did take a bit of time but I submitted the exact same docs I submitted this time and no go over four times. I literally had already verified with them and they asked me to do it again when I made a larger withdrawal.

I received an email saying I was verified this morning Wednesday March 8. No explanation. I also received three gigadat withdrawal requests. I received the transfers about two and a half hours after the verification email. I am updating as resolved as far as my withdrawals are concerned.

That being said all this means to me is that my very first upload was sufficient as nothing changed and they delayed with no good reason. I don’t think they would have stopped making me verify if I hadn’t come here and filed a complaint so thank you so much to Ask Gamblers.

I will not play at Mr. bet again. I am deleting my account, removing the app. I do not trust them. I believe the only reason they paid out was because I complained here. I see a lot of people complaining of the same issue over the last few months and some other Canadians.

They have not improved their process, made live real time customer service available for verification issues and haven’t responded here to my complaint. They repeatedly lied about what I submitted and never explained why each upload was rejected. Ultimately they verified me on the same document I submitted the first time. Untrustworthy. The delay in withdrawals with an abusive verification process that had already been done is not the practice of a reputable casino.

Mr. Bet Casino - Withdrawal delayed
I wanted to share my experience with Mr.Bet Casino because the way they are handling my withdrawal is becoming seriously concerning.

I requested a withdrawal of $4,500 NZD around 70 hours ago. Mr.Bet's website states that withdrawals are processed within up to 48 hours, so we're now well beyond their own advertised timeframe.

I've contacted support multiple times and they've been extremely unhelpful. They won't provide any meaningful explanation for the delay and, despite the withdrawal already exceeding 48 hours, they've refused to escalate it.

What makes this even more frustrating is the verification situation.

Support has told me that my account may need to be verified when they process the withdrawal. That's completely fine - I'm more than happy to provide whatever documents they need.

Because verification apparently has another processing timeframe of up to 48 hours, I've repeatedly asked them to open verification on my account now so I can get it completed while I'm waiting.

They've refused.

So I'm effectively sitting here waiting indefinitely for the withdrawal, knowing they could eventually decide verification is required and potentially add another 48-hour delay - despite me actively trying to complete it in advance.

The whole situation leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. When a casino holds a withdrawal beyond its advertised timeframe, refuses to escalate it, warns that verification might cause another delay, and then won't actually let the customer complete that verification proactively, it's difficult not to question why.

It creates the impression that the withdrawal is being unnecessarily delayed while the money remains within the gambling platform, where there's always the possibility that a customer cancels the withdrawal and gambles it away.

I'm not claiming I can prove that's what Mr.Bet is intentionally doing, but their handling of this withdrawal certainly makes me concerned about it.

At this point it's been 70+ hours for a $4,500 NZD withdrawal that they say should take up to 48 hours, and support seemingly has no interest in resolving or escalating it.

I'll update this post with what happens next, including how long it ultimately takes to receive the money and whether they suddenly request verification after making me wait this long.
