So what's the problem exactly? That you didn't have to provide documents upon opening the account?
Your missing my point. The verification happens automatically in the UK defeating the need for docs.
Pretty sure that there's no "automatic" verification in the UK. There will be always needs for documents, be it proof of address, credit card, source of wealth, etc. Unless something has changed in past week this is how it always was. The only thing changed was that casinos should do verification upon account opening.
Not all casinos have automatic verification unless it's very new like 2 weeks old you
They have to do identity checks on sign up, it is the law. If they cant do it automatically they cant allow you to gamble until you have provided docs. So, my point again, why ask for these ID docs if they have already conducted this "automatic check on sign up" which I have obviously passed? Its duplication and the UKGC brought these rules in partly to stop this nonsense of stalling a withdrawal.
Well I'm sorry but before you can gamble you need to have verified identity, that's the rules post May. The vast majority do this automatically and if they cant they ask for docs.
Most recently at 2 well know casinos I was not verified, also include deposit at them casino. 90% will allow deposit before verify just some casino ask to verify fist and block on sign up but that like 5% to 10% of casinos. i like the idea verify first tho. I also joined a group casino where I could play before verify but asked for docs when I won recently! If it was law they wouldn't allow me to deposit before verify. Different casinos would have different rules to follow I would think depends on your level of licence. But just guessing
In the UK the law is now that Identity checks need to take place before allowing a player to gamble. See links attached, particularly 4.17
Few days ago. ID and Address was only asked for when making a withdrawal, which is exactly against what the UKGC state in the above document. I haven't seen any other casino ask for this since May as they have been able to verify automatically. Card etc I can understand a request for but ID etc I cant.
You can easily verify age and identity automatically, plenty software out there. No other casino I am on has asked for anything from me at all, not even a copy of the card. Slotsmillion are an exception.
What's Bank ID? Take it this is Sweden your talking about. I'm talking about the UK here and we don't have anything like Bank ID.
