Hi people,
I am Glen from the UK and I found this website after searching in google for "is it normal for an online casino to request a notary document".
So firstly - I love to gamble and you could say at times it becomes a problem however I dream of day of not having to worry about money and so I continue to do it. I work in security (SIA registered) and am studying towards the the Security+ qualification in information security.
I don't mean to bitch however I feel that it needs to be discussed what happens when you win big?
I dream of it happening and yes it happened - life changing money won - but I now have to get to the withdrawal stage and have the money deposited into my bank account.
I like playing mircogaming and netent games, I look for the gambling commission logo and do this for a bit of trust in an operator that if I win I'll get paid.
I now am going to share the journey with you online - will I get paid?
I have 94,000.00 gbp in my casino account after winning on "Break da Bank again" I believe it is a mircogaming product.
Now, I have to have my details validated by the security team. And yes after providing all of the documents I have been additionally asked for all of my documents to be signed by a notary and that I have to apply for a passport and submit and scan them by email.
Is this common practice or are they in-fact an evil do'er?
So, I have to find a hundred pounds for a passport and an undisclosed amount in notary fees - and yes notary fees are more expensive than a lawyer about ten times as much.
The casino in question is listed on the site as accredited. I am not going to name them (yet) its not good practice and I have an understanding that maybe what they are asking can be validated to some extent. But, am I blind in the fact that I am chasing a dream that will never happen?
