Verification regs

I’ve been using a casino which I loved and still respect as I can’t allow the last few days or so to cloud everything, but what I’ve noticed the most having used other sites historically too, is that each site seems to have their own limits for things such as additional verification etc and I wondered why?

Surely it causes more paperwork and effort and also causes potential for complaints with (what seems to be) varied and ominous areas such as asking for more ID on top of initial verification.

I’m not prepared to be asked for stuff such as open banking or 2 months bank statements (which the other team asking for photos of bank cards etc didn’t even know about) the EDD team didn’t even email me so I had logged in to find an open banking screen- I’m not owed money, interestingly after glitches on their site one night, two things happened, 1) I won lots of times and 2) withdrawals suddenly became instant, so instant it felt like it felt like big brother was watching me, 🤣 as it’s usually a good 8+ hours. So I’ve firmly said no to giving them more than I already have, even my parents haven’t seen my bank statements and yet I was not asked about pay, at all and in fact the EDD part, nobody has emailed, it’s just there. Tonight I’ll pull out my 10% cash back and that’ll be it.

My question is why aren’t there set times such as losses of X or deposits of Y that are set in stone instead of being told operators have their own individual ways? I find it odd. Are they regulated on this? Surely so.

So a friend told me to get my data to see which I suppose I could do but don’t really see why. My total deposits exceeded £15k over about 8 months with £9k or so withdrawn. This month I had some good wins so played more plus off sick with the dreaded lurgys.

How do others feel about giving up bank statements or open banking permission? I don’t like it. I’m young but private iykwim. I’d hate the idea of someone I don’t know nosing at my accounts. It’s not worth it just to play, I’ll move on or just won’t play.

I also don’t like the pop ups part way through a spin saying “you’ve been playing x hours, you’ve lost this and won that as honestly, who isn’t going to click continue… or maybe it’s just me 🤔 who would or does click leave half way through a spin?

Because fines are easier to impose when regulations are ambiguous.

I would never provide this info to an online casino. Although I'd take quite some time to hit the invisible thresholds set by an online casino, I just don't want the hassle if and when this day comes. I avoid this by taking other risks by playing at crypto casinos instead. Plus I prefer the larger range of games and max RTPs across the board at the places I frequent. The added certainty of crypto volatility makes the whole experience delightful.

Oh that makes sense then re fines but I don’t get why? I don’t use crypto I wouldn’t know what was safe and what was iffy! All I see on Facebook are weird big bass splash not on something or other GameStop? Idk but I look at their 375 free spins and 5 scatters that I’ve never hit and think.. what the 😬
 
I was merely having a dig at the UKGC for how they seem to like to define ambiguous regulations and then fine operators zillions for not following those regulations.
Oh! It is weird tho cause one operator (MrQ) was saying the threshold was £2k, this one isn’t really saying what it is at all, no one seems to have a proper answer, either way I'm not doing the bank stuff and my old bank acct from April has gone as has the card as it was a pre 18 acct with a bank and post 18 I decided I didn’t want it anymore. I’d made 1 deposit in April so they wanted a blanked out statement for that alone too. More hassle, I do really like them and trust them too so I’m a bit sad but this whole thing is a headache especially as actually I’ve not even used this months limit, in fact im +£600 . Why have EDD appeared the same day as all the card requests etc. very bizarre. It’s ABC.

So off elsewhere at some point. Never mind
