Safety

What is the standard information needed to receive a wire transfer from a casino? These are some pretty personal questions just for receiving money. I’m new and want to be safe.

Depends on the bank - I know with HSBC they need full name and address, account number and the SWIFT code - if you are unsure just ring your bank and they will tell you

Alternativley send it to me and I will look after it

Yep account name and Swift code and account number normally is suffice, some may also require IBAN as well.

While others may just require account name, sort code and account number.

If you are playing at a reputable casino you have nothing to worry about. Out of interest which casino is it?

The membership will be able to tell you straight away whether it is upstanding or not, if this is of help.

It is a lot more than just name and account number and swift code. It asks when I opened the acct, is it a joint acct, etc. on Sunrise slots.and a copy of my bank statement.

I cant see why when you opened the account would be relevant. The casino wouldn't be able to prove otherwise.

Im not an advocate of TrustPilot. But if you check the reviews there for the casino in question, they are woeful.

IBAN

or Bank Name + branch/transit + account number

Home address will be on your verified account , and any Bank address or Swift code can be determined from the above.

Above is what is needed to send money; or hand them a VOID cheque

If they are asking more from you then that would be them trying to verify you as a player .

Word of advice , next Casino you join make sure you get your paper work in a get verified before depositing once you are green lit as a player and casino is legit ; things tend to go faster

What exactly have they asked for ?

They wanted to know when I opened the acct, if it’s a shared joint acct and a copy of my bank statement.

I've never had a casino asking when I opened a bank account etc, it's normal at some point to do KYC and get requests for account statement from the card/account you paid from etc or a request for the account they are paying to(so they can confirm its going to you and not a third party).

Standard for ID, Bank Statement(or Skrill etc), proof of address(utilities invoice etc) to be required.

Good points raised here. I’m generally okay providing standard banking details to established casinos, but I always hesitate if extra documents are requested out of the blue. Do you guys have any red flags you watch for before sharing sensitive info, or steps you take to verify it’s legit?
