The player from Ireland faced repeated withdrawal declines from his account at 20bet, despite having provided multiple approved documents for verification. After a recent request for a selfie with his ID in front of his house, the casino deducted €3580 from his balance without notice, leaving only €150. The Complaints Team reviewed the case and found compelling evidence of fraudulent activity, including the use of altered photographs during the verification process. Consequently, the actions taken by the casino were deemed appropriate and justified, leading to the rejection of the player's complaint.
I accumulated 3730EUR in 20bet and decided to withdraw it. I tried to withdraw it multiple times but every attempt was declined and I was asked for new documents every time.
My account was previously verified but after I requested withdrawal they asked for additional documents which I provided
passport photo=approved
utility bill=approved
selfie with ID=approved
other ID document front&back=approved
other proof of address document=approved
selfie with ID and written number=approved
Today I sent another required document selfie with ID card in front of my house, and 20bet decided to steal 3580 € from my balance, they randomly deducted this amount without any notice and left only 150 € on my balance, even though my own deposits are 801 €.
I played sports & casino and my winnings were fully legal and obtained only with my own money as I did not use any bonuses.
This is pure fraud, first endless verification to steal the balance at the end.

I would now like to ask 20Bet Casino for their help in resolving this complaint. We would like to know why were the player's winnings confiscated and what can we do to help resolve this issue.
Thank you for providing me with the information 20Bet Casino representative.
dylstri666, We have been presented with compelling evidence from the casino indicating the use of altered photographs and documents during the verification process. It is important to emphasize that the submission of falsified or manipulated materials is considered a serious breach of terms and constitutes fraudulent behavior.
We strongly advise against engaging in such practices, as they not only undermine the integrity of the verification process but may also result in severe consequences, including permanent blacklisting across the broader gaming and gambling industry.
In light of the evidence provided and the seriousness of the matter, we find the actions taken by the casino to be both appropriate and justified. As such, we regret to inform you that your complaint will be rejected.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
