Photo ID

[mimi26]

Can someone advise of somewhere I can register without the need for photo ID, I play at GUTS, LADBROKES BGO and 32red, all fully verified but I want to open some new accounts and the photo ID is becoming problematic

I don't think there's anything wrong with the way you look

I've had major problems with this myself mimi. I have an NI Electoral Identity Card (which is also photographic), but some casinos deem it to be insufficient on the grounds that it is not a signed document.

The ones that have refused the Electoral Identity Card....consequently, I have not deposited at any of these casinos, as it is basically pointless
for me to do so because they have told me they will not process any withdrawal until I get acceptable photo ID. Funny how all of them said it was perfectly fine for me to deposit though

PKR Viper
All British
Videoslots
Energy
Grosvenor

The ones that required photo ID, but deemed my Electoral Identity Card to be sufficient...

Dr Vegas
Maria Casino (presumeably this means Unibet would also deem it sufficient?)
Cashmio
Rizk
Royal Panda

The only one that did not require Photo ID

Sky Vegas (handy if you are wanting to try out Novo games)

Despite all the above, I would recommend that you get some form of ID, even if it is just something like a Provisional Licence.

Even places like Casino Rewards have randomly asked for documents (it was only once though) to approve a withdrawal. I think Casumo do something similar.

Ultimately, you need jonmincher and spintee to see this. They will give you plenty of good info to work with.

PS. I should clarify that I have accounts at all of 32Red Group. But they were opened way back in 2014. The rules regarding ID have changed so much since then
that it has become a bit of a minefield. Especially given the varying stances that the casinos are taking on this issue. Some are very strict, some almost seem indifferent (or maybe they just have better checking mechanisms in place?).

To the best of my aching bones and fading memory the following are casinos I've use / still use which have never (or at least not yet) requested any form of ID.

32 Red and all associated brands (now to include Roxy Palace)

Casino Rewards (member and deposited at 10+ skins (not in recent months tho))

Casumo

Redbet (recently requested for large withdrawal but months of deposit/withdrawal without ID prior to this)

Dr Vegas (years of activity, no ID request) (limited game selection from major providers)

Kaboo and Super Lenny (This could be due to the fact they have my ID at Thrills though, not sure?)

BGO (No Microgaming here though)

Also all the 'bookies' sites, Ladbrokes, Bet365, Coral, William Hill, Betfred - tend to avoid these tho as poor promotions and hate Playtech slots and they have an abundance of them

Hope this helps!

Thanks for replies guys, ultimately I am looking for a casino that gives nice deposit bonuses, Guts are too mean , I would like to play somewhere that has multiple platforms

I might try Casumo

Are you in uk, as that can make a difference, as uk based casinos can verify you electronically. Coral, betfair and skybet for example have never requested a single bit of id from me and ive withdrew 20k plus from all 3 over the years, betfair a lot more, so dont think they ever will.

Good casino with a HUGE selection of games and I used to play there VERY regularly.

There offers are also good to start with and as long as you don't win too much, should see at least one x 80% bonus offer per week! (after you've taken the welcome offer(s))

Just be aware that around 8pm GMT it hits peak traffic and the site can on occasion suffer from terrible lag and disconnection errors.

Luckily I got a Provisional Licence at the end, As gameboy pointed out it will save alot of trouble, And with the new U.K regs they have to KYC

I was only asked once when I didnt have a photo and that was on MrGreen, They went out there way to help me out but it was a long thing, Had to download a form, sign it along with two other people sig and copy of there photo I.D,

£50 for a Provisional Licence, Pretty dam easy to get one, Pic up a form from local post office, Even they have a photo booth now days, I will tell you something it will be the best 50 squids you ever spent

Just do not go buying cars like I did and get them impoundded, albeit I was insured, taxed, I was even parked up, but the police assumed I was driving with a banned driver? No one was next to me as they was in the shop, Cannot wait to go to court on this one, I may have been driving with someone who has not got a license but how do they that? Thats the reason they have to actually pull you over while driving,

They just wanted to do a wrong one to me,

This is not an easy way for people with a medical condition that prevents them from driving, as DVLA won't issue even a provisional.

As for your odd case, surely carrying a banned driver as a passenger isn't an offence, yet they were in the shop and you were in your car and fully taxed and insured to drive it. Sometimes though, a persistent offender will be placed under covert surveillance, so this is one way the police might have known who was with you, even though they were in the shop.

I only hold a profis mate, No covert operation going on albeit I was most likely spotted, But the law states they have to catch you driving, Even if I was seen with a banned driver next to me than how do they know it was me driving? at that time,

Hense they have to see you driving at the time of the offence, I had two people in the back and no one in the front, I was parked up around the corner from the shop, police drove towards me and turned around, At this time I took the keys gave them to a mate then went into shop, Only than the police see me speaking to somebody they thought was sitting next to me,
NO PROVE, They could not even get me of being in charge of the vehicle as they took the keys from my friend,

And no not a persistant offender, I used to be but not no more, The police knew who I am and the people in the back, Even may have known that a banned driver was in the passenger side of my car,

BUT at time of this I was not driving, It does not matter if they seen me 20 minutes before this, I spoke to a few solicitors and a ex police sergeant, He siad the offence had to take place there and than, I did not know it was an offence to be parked up in a car? I hate police but the ex sergent is a top man, a friend of my dads, More dodgy than a pack of jammy dodger biscuits,

I have full blown proof that alot of dodgy coppers out there, The checky mug had a cheeck to say if you do not calm down Terry I will arrest you for drink driving He knew he had nothing on me, or he would of pulled me in for drink drive, Its pretty dam hard as was not driving and was not in control of the car as my mate had the keys,

All they wanted to do is interrupted what ever I was doing, Any one with some brains would of waited till I drove of than pulled me,Hense I do not understand,

To top it off I was also done for no L plates, Again I was not bloody driving,

Sorry for the of topic but will keep any one updated once been court,

Oh and yes you are right about the medical conditions, But they do have to be informed by doctor or what ecer, So its rare that this occurs, You do how ever have to declare this on the forms

Trips are pretty frequent prizes with casinos. Why not just go ahead and get your passport, so you could take advantage of one should you be so lucky.

IMO they are also very satisfactory things to spend your winnings on!

Even if you pre-verifiy with a casino, you could face at a later date having to produce further ID if you win a significant amount or policy changes.

I think you might get off with this due to the fact he wasn't in the car, but from memory the offence is being in control of the car, you don't have to be driving. I think, and again, this is from memory, if the keys are in the ignition thats enough for a conviction. Having said that he wasn't in the car so unless they have CCTV I think it might be hard to prove

Looked every where for CCTV and nothing, unless of course there hidden cams, I had my car dash cam running, So this will show the police coming towards me, so they canot lie and say they followed me,

I was not even in control of the motor, As they took the keys from my mate, Learned that one long time ago

I think you might be the victim of a police tactic sometimes known as "disruption", where they hassle those they have had dealings with in the past with the purpose of disrupting anything dodgy they MIGHT be doing, even though they have no proof. Sometimes this can involve dishing out minor charges and fixed penalties that if it were anyone else they would not even bother speaking to them. They know that SOMEONE drove that car to the shop, but they can't prove WHO, but they can ferret out a few minor offences, such as no L plates as they know you didn't have a full license, and they probably knew the two mates in the back didn't either, and they then assumed that if the other guy was a banned driver and you had a provisional, there is no way the car could legally have been driven there. A banned driver can't supervise a learner, hence if you had driven, you did so unsupervised. They would have done you for that if they had actually caught you driving.

Harassment I call it, They only assumed the banned driver was my side passenger as they see us talking when I got out the motor, We are all known to the police, I not a bad bloke but yes I had my fair share of trouble,

I do not need Lplates when car is not being driven do I? You are right the car got there some how and was most likely have been seen, But thats why they have to actually cacth you driven,

Any one could of drove it there, any one could of been next to me like my uncle was Who got out of the car due to auguring, He said he will ring me later and for my mate to take the keys of me and park it up, Thats when the police came, Lplates have already been put in the boot by than

Soon as court date comes I will request any evidence, Your right it was a "disruption" as at the time the police do not have to give a reason to the DVLA nd courts untill the time comes, They was not thinking long term,

Bottom line is, LAW states the crime has to be committed there and than for driving offence, I was parked up, Had no controll of the car as my mate had the keys, I was insured, and car taxed and mot, I have dash cam to show the polce come towards me, the car was parked for near 2 minutes before they come up and turned around,

Corrupt police, there nothing but a normall person, as soon as they put that jacket on they turn into mr hulk, No need for it in this day and age, I commit no offence when they came along, Unless of course its an offence to sit in a legit car
