Ritzo Casino - L'account del giocatore è stato chiuso e le vincite sono state posticipate.

I legally reside in Poland and registered at Ritzo Casino using my real Polish IP address. I made a personal deposit of 447 PLN and legitimately won 1,370 PLN. When I attempted to verify my withdrawal, the system refused to accept my Ukrainian passport, and chat support referred to Rule 2.7, which lists Ukraine as a restricted country.

I didn't use a VPN or defraud the casino. The site technically allowed me to create an account, open a zloty account, and accept my money, but now they're using this rule to avoid paying out my winnings. When I offered to send them an official bank statement and my PESEL document (I reside in Poland as a Ukrainian citizen), they simply replied that such documents are not accepted.

After this, I requested a full refund of my personal funds, citing the gambling compliance rules: "Since Ukraine is a restricted jurisdiction under your terms, my account was created in error. According to gambling compliance rules, I request a full refund of my initial deposits to my original payment method. Please process the refund and close the account." In response to this legitimate request, support simply forcibly closed the chat.

I ask the forum administration to help me get my fair winnings in the amount of PLN 1,396 or, at a minimum, force the casino to return my personal deposited funds in the amount of PLN 447, since a critical error during registration occurred solely due to the fault of the casino itself.

Я легально проживаю в Польше и зарегистрировался в казино Ritzo со своего реального польского IP-адреса. Внес личный депозит в размере 447 PLN и честно выиграл 1370 PLN. Когда я попытался пройти верификацию для вывода средств, система отказалась принимать мой заграничный паспорт Украины, а поддержка в чате сослалась на пункт правил 2.7, где Украина указана как запрещенная страна.

Я не использовал VPN и не обманывал казино. Сайт сам технически позволил мне создать аккаунт, открыть счет в злотых и принять мои деньги, а теперь они используют это правило, чтобы не выплачивать выигрыш. Когда я предложил выслать им официальную выписку из банка и мой документ PESEL (я проживаю в Польше по статусу UKR), они просто ответили, что такие документы не принимаются.

После этого я попросил сделать мне полный возврат моих личных средств, процитировав им правила гемблинг-комплаенса: "Since Ukraine is a restricted jurisdiction under your terms, my account was created in error. According to gambling compliance rules, I request a full refund of my initial deposits to my original payment method. Please process the refund and close the account". В ответ на эту законную просьбу саппорт просто принудительно завершил чат.

Прошу администрацию форума помочь мне получить мой честный выигрыш в размере 1396 PLN или, как минимум, заставить казино вернуть мои личные внесенные средства в размере 447 PLN, так как критическая ошибка при регистрации произошла исключительно по вине самого казино.

Dear Maksym,

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We understand that the verification process can be frustrating, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify the current status of your account.

After carefully reviewing your case, we would like to clarify that your withdrawal has not been declined by the casino.

In accordance with our Terms and Conditions, all withdrawal requests are subject to our standard Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process. As part of this process, we may request documentation to verify a player's identity and place of residence before processing a withdrawal.

At this time, your withdrawal remains pending, as we are still awaiting the requested verification documents. The verification process has not been completed, and therefore no final decision has been made regarding your withdrawal request.

Regarding your concerns about your nationality, we would like to clarify that the verification process is based on the complete documentation provided by the player. If you are able to verify your residence in Poland and all requested KYC documents meet our verification requirements, we do not foresee any issue with proceeding with the verification and continuing the withdrawal process.

We encourage you to upload all of the requested documents through the verification process so that our verification team can complete the review of your account. Once all required documentation has been received, your case will be assessed in accordance with our standard KYC procedures and our Terms and Conditions.

At this stage, as the verification process is still ongoing and no withdrawal has been rejected, we are unable to process a refund request, as the account verification has not yet reached a final outcome.

We remain committed to resolving this matter as quickly as possible upon receipt of the outstanding documentation. Should you require any assistance with the verification process or have questions regarding the requested documents, our support team will be happy to assist you.

Kind regards,

Yudith

Dear nexumii,

My name is Igor and I will be assisting you with your case.

I am sorry to hear about your problem with the Ritzo Casino and I hope that together we will come to a successful resolution of your issue.

Dear Ritzo Casino,

Could you please clarify which documents are currently required from the player in order to complete KYC?

Additionally, I would like to ask why the documents already sent were rejected or were not sufficient. Thank you.

Dear Casino Guru Team,

Thank you for the opportunity to clarify this case.

After a thorough review with our KYC team, we would like to provide a detailed explanation of the player's verification status, the documents requested, and the reasons why the verification process has not yet been completed.

Verification status

First and foremost, we would like to clarify that the player's withdrawal has not been rejected due to their nationality.

The player's withdrawal remains pending because the mandatory Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process has not been successfully completed.

The player initially attempted to verify through our automated verification system but did not successfully pass the verification. Instead, the requested documents were later submitted by email. However, in accordance with our KYC procedures, the verification must be completed through our automated verification system, including the mandatory liveness check. This security measure allows us to verify both the authenticity of the identity document and that the person completing the verification matches the document presented. This requirement is an important anti-fraud measure and forms part of our standard verification process for all players.

Documents currently required

To complete the verification process, the player has been requested to provide the following documents through the verification system:

Proof of Identity (one of the following Polish-issued documents):

• Polish passport;
• Polish national ID card;
• Polish driver's licence; or
• Polish residence permit (front and back).

Proof of Address:

A document confirming the residential address registered on the casino account. Normally we accept bank statements.

Proof of Payment Method:

• A colour photograph of the credit/debit card used to make deposits (front and back, with the middle six digits and CVV code concealed); and
• A screenshot of the player's online banking profile displaying the bank account number or IBAN.

Why the submitted documents could not be accepted

The documents submitted by the player could not be accepted for several reasons.

Firstly, the verification was not completed through our automated verification system, and the mandatory liveness check was therefore not successfully completed.

Secondly, the submitted PESEL document cannot be accepted as Proof of Identity. A PESEL is a Polish personal identification number used for administrative purposes. It is not an official government-issued photo identity document and therefore cannot independently verify a person's identity for KYC purposes.

Additionally, the submitted Legitymacja szkolna (student identification card) cannot be accepted as supporting documentation. Although it may display the holder's PESEL number, it is issued by an educational institution and is not an official government-issued identity or immigration document. It does not confirm the holder's current legal residence status in Poland and therefore cannot replace the official identity documents required under our KYC policy.

For KYC purposes, we must rely on official government-issued documents, such as a Polish passport, national ID card, driver's licence, or residence permit, as these documents enable us to verify the player's identity in accordance with our regulatory obligations.

Finally, the submitted bank statement could not be accepted because the residential address shown on the document does not match the address registered on the player's casino account.

As these addresses differ, the document cannot be used to verify the address registered on the account.

Regarding the player's nationality and residence

The player states that they are a Ukrainian citizen legally residing in Poland. We acknowledge that nationality and country of residence are separate matters. However, regardless of nationality, every player must successfully complete our verification process by providing the required documentation that complies with our KYC requirements before a withdrawal can be processed.

At this stage, the verification process remains incomplete because the required documentation has not yet been successfully provided through the designated verification procedure.

Applicable Terms and Conditions

As outlined in our Terms and Conditions:

"If you fail to verify your account in the established time, winnings will be confiscated and your account will be permanently closed due to the failed verification procedure."

We would like to emphasize that this clause has not been applied at this stage. The player still has the opportunity to complete the verification process by uploading the requested documentation through our automated verification system.

We hope this explanation clarifies the current status of the case. Should any additional information or supporting evidence be required, we will be pleased to provide it.

Kind regards,

Yudith - Customer Experience Team
