Ritzo Casino not processing 100 withdrawal due to their misunderstanding of Irish law


1 year ago

Ritzo use sumsub for KYC verification. I have never had an issue with any sumsub casinos. My passport was issued in the UK/Ireland. However this is not an option on the sumsub system.

I emailed my documents to Ritzo but they said I needed to provide my Irish passport. I sent them the law - https:­//w­ww.c­it­ize­nsi­nfo­rma­tio­n.i­e/e­n/g­ove­rnm­ent­-in­-ir­ela­nd/­ire­lan­d-a­nd-­the­-uk­/co­mmo­n-t­rav­el-­are­a-b­etw­een­-ir­ela­nd-­and­-th­e-uk/

The common travel act explains how this is not possible/nor required for someone born in the UK/Scotland or Wales.

The casino is still having a hard time understanding. Askgamblers meditating would help greatly as this could also be classed as a technical issue with their sumsub setup as well as ignorance with law.

I hope for help here

While AskGamblers Complaint Team could understand player's frustration and disappointment considering the nature of this dispute, we would like to remind player that each and every online casino operator has the exclusive right to determine and apply its own verification policy and procedures depending on the requirements set within their licensing agreement. Unfortunately, player obviously failed to meet Ritzo Casino verification process which is in fact a violation of the general casino terms and conditions.

Based on the above, AskGamblers Complaint Team has not other choice but to reject the case. We would like to remind the complainant, that in case of a disagreement with our decision, further assistance on the matter could be requested from the relevant regulatory body and/or appointed ADR entity

I supplied my Uk and Irish passport. I supplied my proof of address.

Can you explain why this would not be accepted?

As previously stated the CTA - https:­//w­ww.c­it­ize­nsi­nfo­rma­tio­n.i­e/e­n/g­ove­rnm­ent­-in­-ir­ela­nd/­ire­lan­d-a­nd-­the­-uk­/co­mmo­n-t­rav­el-­are­a-b­etw­een­-ir­ela­nd-­and­-th­e-uk/ - Is a LAW which allows me to live in Ireland. THE LAW IN QUESTION MEANS I CANNOT GET A SECOND IRISH ONLY PASSPORT?

Can you also point to where in the casino terms it states you can only sign up to the casino if you are a CITIZEN of the country you are a resident in?

Can you also point to where in EU law a casino can attempt the theft of my €100 deposit if they refuse my identification documents?

Can you also point to where in UK/IReland law it states gambling is illegal? As Ritzo claim in this complaint.

Can you also explain, given all the above, on which grounds Ritzo have acted in accordance with their terms, CTA and EU law?
