What happens if you're 59 when you sign up at 11:59 and when you go to activate the spins at 12:01, you're 60? I mean, i'd feel pretty aggrieved to lose out on a euro cos of a few minutes. The injustice. What are 60 yr olds playing slots for anyway? They should be on the bingo.

Just to follow up with what Valdes has said re private companies - economies of scale as mentioned, it would probably be cheaper for org's using this, rather than having an in-house team Skill set wise? If the private orgs have the required fraud certifications etc, no offence to casino's, but they will be be better qualified to perform this; it's their bread and butter after all - won't go into detail, or say much more other than it's quite easy to fool a casino's KYC team if ur sending in manual documents (cough, cough) - it's not so easy to fool 243 data points to run info against. Unfortunately, for all the good as V mentioned that the UKGC has presided over (verification before deposits, a commitment to move to E Verification) it's all gonna be pointless when folk give up gambling cos they don't wanna manually spin on Novomatics for hours on end. Roll on October

You can get a mortgage at 61 still but you can't get spins valued at a quid? x100 One of the weirdest terms i've read - over 60 etc And some of the worst terms I've read - one line spins Sign me up now!

Doesn't necessarily need to be the regulator as well - there are companies specifically set up to act as outsourced agents for KYC around the world; you pay either a flat fee per year (gets you X amount of verifications) or you 'pay as you go. Economies of Scale etc i think it was working out at one place at pennies in the pound per 'client' Verification shouldn't take days: it should either be instant or hours, certainly not 72 hrs etc.

I still find it weird that Bitcoin casino's have to do KYC (well, they were brought into the AML universe): hey, anon....but send us in ur passport
-
Oddly enough, someone PM'd me re a casino asking for expired bank cards and a casino withholding a w/d because of it (As Amy Winehouse sang, no, no, no) - Malta casino, as per usual - seriously, sort it out. Really don't make it easy for themselves with such, I'll pluck this from the air, requests
-
Just using it as an example - Trustly is in itself KYC as well. Lets be honest though, MGA take months to respond to complaints, the UKGC won't even deal with them, so the chances of those two acting basically as a third party for KYC are pretty long The other thing would be that, legally, the casino's are still responsible for KYC as part of the EDD: using the UKGC/MGA as essentially agents to carry this out wouldn't 'get them off the hook' if something goes wrong. Think there's merit in having some sort of 'one token' across all sites but unfortunately it'll never happen. You can just see it now. -the UKGC taking 2 months to approve someones KYC, the casino's getting irrate cos the player can't spin, the players getting annoyed: it'd be pandemonium. And like i said re the UK, if done right, it's not even an issue as it's all done in the background: no passports, no expired bank card pics needed etc. I know some casino's have went to the GC about the idea of them being the ones responsible for SOW for example and lets say that was quite a short convo - to be honest, i think that would be probably be a decent shout, but again, it won't happen.

As for the, we don't accept PDF's; print it off, fold it, add a dog ear and take a pic with it beside an envelope - they won't know the difference

Though this was someone on a diet and to stay away from Mars Bars. The age limit is 60? There's a case for lawyers and age discrimination. Reminds me of a promo a casino ran and the spins were in Caterpillar etc and they limited it to one line. How miserable must this casino be to actively go in and change the lines? Agree - entirely misleading.
-
Linking in with work, we were going some work on Covid Grants etc and the government has a system whereby you could input the application forms, the applicants details and, pulling from many sources, would run a series of cross checks to verify (similar to KYC) the person and their business; not a single paper document was needed and the money there is a helluva lot more than asking for it to pay out 50 quid. Depends i guess on the country the persons in and where they can get the data from; in the UK we have quite a lot of systems that can be used to verify, other places, maybe not so much; so in the casinos defence they would need to have this in place for each individual country, so possibly why they go old school.

I think Sweden Bank ID login is like that? If casino's could get with the modern era there would be no need to supply passports and the like - luckily in the UK, it's pretty easy if playing with UK based casinos as it's all done using various e-verifications; never had i had to send in cards/passports to Sky/Willy Hill/Bet 365 - it's always the maltese casinos - who, frankly, need a boot up the proverbial.

Show time - let's see your winner screenshots!
pinnit2015 replied to ValDes's topic in Share your Winner Screenshots
That might be true up to an extent; be silly to simply refuse 200 quid of a w/d when you know, if you pay a few low value ones, they'll keep coming back. Then, if the person deposits another 5k and wins back their loses it's shut up shop time; it's how the places normally work. Think these places rely on the above, coupled with the fact it's easy to attract folk with '400%' deposit offers that more than compensate for losing folk via not paying at some threshold in the r/ship. In the UK it's places like Red Lion Casino etc targeting gamstoped folk; seen they pay up to several hundred but if you win a big amount, good luck getting the cash because it's more than likely they'll not pay.- 9648 replies

Is possibly for Iphone 4 to run a mobile casino page now.
pinnit2015 replied to xamenos's topic in Ask Gamblers
Games these days eat so much power - i have the iphone8 and it struggles with Pragmatic Plays and Thunderkicks as they're real drainage suckers; even my old macbook struggled with them Can't comment re live casino but you may struggle with some online slots. That being said, Apples updates to their range are now so incremental -

Partner Using My Name to Get Free Spins - Need Help
pinnit2015 replied to FahKNErP's topic in Ask Gamblers
Check your credit file incase they've also been applying for credit etc in your name Why would they do that? You could also consider reporting it to the police for impersonation and probably quite a few other things, though not sure they'd do anything unless there was a financial loss. Just seen Blackjax has replied - aye, keep an eye on the credit file and if they're doing stuff there then you can apply for a protective CIFAS registration Gamstop, in your name etc, should stop the opening of accounts with your details (though they may use a diff email addy) -
Might go in then and say You gave me the 1000 for the cashback Now can i have, oddly the same number but nevermind, the 1000 for the comp?
