Unreasonable Rejection of Address Verification Documents


1 month ago

Dear AskGamblers Complaints Team,


I would like to file a complaint regarding the verification process and the repeated rejection of my proof of address documents by the casino.

The casino requested documents to verify my residential address. I have submitted the required documents more than ten times. Each submission was rejected on the grounds that the image quality was allegedly insufficient.

However, all information in the documents is clearly readable, including my name, address, dates, and all other relevant details. The casino has not provided any specific explanation regarding which parts of the documents are supposedly unreadable or what exactly needs to be improved.

I have already provided the best possible photos that I can obtain with my current mobile phone. Unfortunately, I do not have access to a better camera. Despite this, the documents remain fully legible and should be sufficient for verification purposes.

I believe that repeatedly rejecting the same documents without providing clear and specific reasons is unreasonable and effectively prevents me from completing the verification process and accessing my funds.

I respectfully request that this matter be investigated and that the casino be required to:


Provide a detailed explanation of why the submitted documents are being rejected.

Specify which information is allegedly unreadable.

Accept the documents if all required information is visible and legible.

Complete the verification process and allow me to withdraw my funds without further unnecessary delays.


I am prepared to provide all correspondence with the casino to support my complaint.

Thank you for your assistance.


Kind regards,

Dear AskGamblers Team and Julia

Thank you for reaching out regarding this matter, and we apologize for the inconvenience caused during the verification process.

We would like to clarify the reason for the repeated rejection of the submitted Proof of Address (POA) documents. As per our verification requirements, all POA documents must be submitted in high quality — this is a strict requirement regardless of whether the information on the document is technically legible. While we acknowledge that the information on the submitted images (name, address, dates, etc.) is readable, the overall image quality does not meet the standard we require for compliance and security purposes.
Low-resolution or low-quality images are not accepted, even when the content itself can be read, as our verification team requires a certain image clarity to properly authenticate the document.
To help resolve this as quickly as possible, we kindly ask @JuliaDekker to do one of the following:

Submit a higher-quality image of the same document — ideally a digital original (not a photo of a printed copy or a screenshot), with all four corners visible, no glare, and no editing artifacts.
Submit an alternative POA document, such as a utility bill or bank statement, that meets our quality standards.
For reference, our full Proof Of Address requirements are:

Utility bill (gas, water, electricity, phone, TV, internet, etc.)
Bank statement
Residence certificate issued by a local authority
Tax document
Document issued by a state or local government institution
Correspondence received from a state or local government authority
Requirements — all must be met:

Issued within the past 3 months
Issued in the name of the account holder, showing a physical address
Must clearly show the account holder's name, physical address, issuer name and logo, and date of issue
All four corners of the document must be visible
High image quality only — low-quality images are not accepted
Screenshots are not accepted; digital originals must be submitted as the original file
No traces of editing software
Photos pasted into a PDF are not accepted
Handwritten documents are not accepted


We remain fully committed to completing the verification process and processing the withdrawal as soon as a document meeting these requirements is received. We appreciate Julia Dekker's cooperation.

Kind regards,
Sankra Casino Team.
