Sorry for my english, it is translated on Google translator

Hi all. I uploaded 2 videos a couple of days ago with 2 big wins, and I wrote here that I had won 2500 euros with a deposit of €40. Now I have a problem! I can't take out the money, I think casinos have problems with Norwegian banks. I have requested a withdrawal 6 times without success. All the time the money was put back on my playing account. I have contacted live chat several times, they did a fantastic job as usual but they failed to resolve the issue. Now the case has been forwarded to the right department, but I am very skeptical and cannot believe that they will solve the case. Can any of you help me? Maybe @letsgiveitaspin or @ skylined87

Thank you

I use DNB. It has worked before, but I see that all casinos have removed the bank transfer option. Now only the Visa option is available.

Maybe DNB doesn't accept payments from casinos, or maybe the problem is with LeoVegas, I'm not sure

I have tried Casumo, Dunder and LeoVegas, none of them giving me that opportunity. They say that for Norwegian players only Visa works for withdrawals. They also set a limit for withdrawals for Norwegian players 18500 per 24 hours.

 
I thought it is now necessary singing up to GameStop in order to be an online gambling producer no matter casino or a sportbook

 
Hi. 

Norwegian players that gamble and play for real money online, outside of Norwegian jurisdiction are prone to experience problems with deposits and / or withdrawals to and from Norwegian financial institutions. 

This is because of the Norwegian government's attempt to block real money transactions to and from foreign companies associated with / and or affiliated with real money gambling.The blockade affects any company that has been deemed in breach of the Norwegian gambling laws. In essence, this means any and every company - even payment providers such as PayPal, Skrill, NetEller and so forth. The biggest ones being VISA, MasterCard and such. 

Heck, if you're Norwegian and receive payments from one of these companies because you've done copy, translated something, designed something or just worked with or for them in any relation; it's enough to block your payment. 

The reason for this is that Lotteritilsynet (The Norwegian equivalent of The Malta Gaming Authority) is trying to crack down on "illegal gambling". Yes, "illegal". While it is unlawful to provide such services to Norwegian citizens from inside Norway if you're not "Norsk Tipping", or similar, it is NOT unlawful for Norwegian citizens to gamble online. 

For those not aware of the current status quo in Norway when it comes to gambling for real money; it is a state monopoly. All forms of real money wagering, including lotteries can only be offered via "Norsk Tipping" and "Norsk Rikstoto". 

The blockade is their way of trying to not only hogtie consistent flow of of money to foreign companies, but also discourage Norwegian players from gambling on online casinos as they risk having their withdrawals blocked. 

In layman's terms, if a bank discovers that you are sending / receiving money from a company associated with gambling outside of Norway, they will likely block the transaction. 

The reason why different gaming companies have different payment options has to do with their current business relations with banks and payment providers. Also, it takes time for the Norwegian financial system to request a "block" on say "dunder" + "bank transfer", as much as it takes time to block "visa" + "LeoVegas" transactions. It's a very political, and bureaucratic process that takes time. 

Not to worry though, as the gaming companies are well traversed in the quest of finding new, safe and secure payment methods for Norwegians - and are also obligated to pay you any money due.
