Hi all,
It's been a long time since I've had any kind of problem with a bookie but WH have just shafted me for an (admittedly) quite small amount but enough to make me angry.
I've had the account for something like 5 years, hundreds of deposits and withdrawals, recently added a new debit card (when the previous one expired), deposited £30 and played some slots. Got my balance up to £277 and decided to cash out.
They asked me to submit proof of ID/address which I thought was odd because I'm pretty sure I did so 5 years ago. Anyway I sent them clear, high-res photos of passport, a council tax bill (from 2 weeks ago) and the front and back of my new debit card.
Couple of days later they replied to say that my documents had failed the checks, my account would be permanently closed and funds confiscated.
Now before anyone asks - all personal details on my account and correct and true, all IDs submitted match these details, all documents are real.
I've heard similar stories in the past and people always suggest contacting IBAS so I did this, raised a case via their online form. That was about a week ago, I never received a case number or any kind of contact from IBAS so was curious if anyone on here had a similar experience and how long IBAS took to respond and the contact will hill, etc.?
I also wanted to ask, should I, in the meantime also raise a case with SBR or casinomeister or another intermediary, or just chill and wait for something to happen with IBAS?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks
