one thing nobody mentions about the ontario launch that will probably repeat in alberta: the KYC process at launch is slower than it will be six months later. the verification teams are overwhelmed when everyone tries to verify on the same day. in ontario some people waited 4-5 days for account...
lets say I played on grey market Ontario for 18 months before the regulated launch and then moved to regulated. the main thing i noticed immediately was withdrawal speed. grey market accounts on curaçao-licensed sites averaged 3-5 business days for withdrawals. regulated Ontario books were...
yes on the 1xbet withdrawal issue. seen too many complaints specifically about accounts getting reviewed and then suspended when players try to withdraw larger amounts. in any market that's bad. in a market where you have no regulatory recourse whatsoever it's potentially permanent money loss...
two cents from outside indonesia but relevant. been in situations in other restricted markets. account freeze risk is the one people underestimate. ppatk identified 23,000+ bank accounts in just the october-november blocking period. those aren't just operator accounts
so pattern detection is...
i had 3 transactions blocked when trying to send pix to a site that was still operating from a .com domain in february. the payment just never arrived. no explanation from the bank and no error from the casino euther. money came back after 48 hours but it was awful. that's apparently the payment...
just don't touch anything that launched in the last two years without at least a hundred independent withdrawal confirmations from people you can verify. i know that sounds paranoid but also i lost 800 quid..
happened to me on netbetcasino last year. looked legit, no kyc advertised, withdrew fine twice on small amounts. tried to take out 800 and suddenly needed enhanced verification. then they stoped responding entirely. never saw the money. prolly never will
the no kyc thing is real until the money...
its only complicated first time. once you understand networks and have wallet set up its actually easier than traditional. no bank blocking transactions, no explaining gambling to your bank, instant everything
exactly mate betfair verification took 5 days. meanwhile stake accepted my crypto in 2 minutes and let me play. governments created this problem with their overregulation. people just want to gamble not fill out loan application
in netherlands we opened regulated market april 2021 under remote gambling act. ksa issues licences. first few years were okay but ksa has gotten brutal with enforcement. until they introduced new fines policy jan 2025 escalating penalties for violations.
friend of mine had account frozen for 3...
i use muchbetter and the only downside is some smaller casinos dont take it yet but all big ones do. withdrawal is fast but then getting it to your bank account takes few days and costs money tho
Well KYC wasnt the issue for me. They verified everything then still confiscated winnings. Progress play seem to have different excuses depending which site you usebut find a way to fuck you up
