The issue is that they still want proof of my address in order JUST to enter my account nothing more nothing less ... They don't give me any particular reason behind their demand. Am i risking something by sending them some scanned papers? What could be the reason for this? I'm not some big time gambler, but i have never had anything like this happened before, i have made registrations with more than 30 books.

I just went through that with them. I allowed my sister in Greece to play poker on my account and they locked me out due to the IP conflict. It took about 10 days and I had to email my info 3 times before they removed the restriction.

That being said, this is the only blemish on their record with me in nearly ten years. Their customer service and payments have been excellent over 10 years time.

If you read the fine print, you can block out everything on your ID except your name,address, and expiration date. I blocked out my face, drivers license #, everything else.

Hope everything goes smoothly for you.

all GOOD books will require you to send in information in order to withdraw.... that is to protect you and them from fraud.... if you do everything you're suppose to, this book will payout without probs...good luck

Thank you for the valuable information. I made my registration from home but tried to enter from work as well, i think that caused IP conflict in my case. I'll try to sort this out and send them the papers

[Raven66]

I made my registration from home. I can log onto anywhere, work, at a buddy's house, that is not the issue. You probably live in the States thats why they want ID first.

[Slainte]

No i live in the Europe ... that's gettin' strange

[winM]

Sent them ur documents to veify! Then u can do ur next step!

[mtneer1212]

I admit I know very little about SIA, but if they are requiring ID to open an account, I applaud them. It always made me angry that books would happily take your money, but require a dog and pony show before processing a withdrawal.

[Stallion]

SIA is a legit sportsbook now. I just got a payout from them last week, so I would just give them the info.

[Thremp]

requiring ID before taking deposits >>>> Requiring ID for winners

[Chuck74]

nothing to worry about, sending ppw is normal. They ask that to avoid fraud, multiple accts and chargebacks.

[Chopsticks]

Always find it best to just send the id stuff straight away.. that way the bookie don't have an excuse saying that they need to verify and receive id when you cash out.

Anyone know if the world cup bonus sometimes advertised on the right hand side of this page is for US people only or if europeans can play too?

[chunnnn2010]

I might use that book when it become a better rating

Does anyone at your workplace have an account? maybe that was why they asked you for your docs up front? They probably just want to make sure you are an individual and your not working in a team.

[Slainte]

Everything is fixed now, thanks SIA
I just sent them details about my issue, and send them one of the documents needed, the issue was fixed relatively fast.
The seems to be reputable book!

[underthe total]

they are a good book, but will cut your limits for sharp play

[Vitti]

good bookie. limits are ok if you play us-sports. if you place soccer bets they will limit you very fast. I use SIA for 2 years now making a few withdrawals and never had any problems.

[dark star]

Keep the bets relativeely small & don't make a lot of withdrawals & you'll be fine

[increasedodds]

I've never had a problem. They request ID and verify you, but they take my ************ and they pay me via wire in about 7 days. Not the fastest, but have never had a problem. Make sure that you DO NOT share IPs with another player.

Also their withdrawal fees are a bit stiff, but their lines make up for it.
