Just called with Holland Casino and after 1 hour and 10 minutes been waiting in the queue and developed anger issues with the waiting music I finally received the answer.

 

The backlog is so big at the moment of approving the withdrawal that they have estimated my payment to be in bankaccount by friday.

Toto and Batavia are working fine for me. Registration was fast and easy

But after two days, on Holland Casino my account is still pending

and on BetCity im still stuck on this page

Im surprised so many of you use your personal bank account to gamble.

i keep it strictly to e wallets. These days its almost impossible to get an mortgage or other financial products with gambling statements in your bank account. They force you to do it because there are no ewallet options on these sites, which gives me a bad feelings.

Yeah, unfortunately it seems the years of 'anonymous gambling' are over. This is now simply illegal by law. Paysafecard is already illegal to use for gambling transactions (per 4 okt) in the Netherlands. As Skrill is part of the same brand, it will probably follow soon aswell.

Right now they are slowly banning all payment methods that make 'illegal gambling' possible. The 'anonymous' options still available are Brite and Trustly. I guess in order to guarantee a 'safe gambling' environment they have to get rid of almost all methods. Than only (illegal) crypto casino's will remain 😅..

They will do anything to force brands like N1 ltd on their knees. To eventually queu for a license or withdraw from accepting Dutch players.

I use a secondary bank account for transactions related to gambling/gaming/online crap.
I don't like it to get mixed with salary and the standard monthly payments etc.

Same here, I have one bank-account for gambling/crypto (got already KYC on it recently rofl, explaining why there is such a money flow but no income) and another for monthly income.

I’m going to try out Batavia tonight, it seems to meet my expectations with the Dutch kind of Pay ‘n Play technique. Hopefully they are not the same as Holland Casino with the withdrawal times, but maybe we can find that out pretty soon haha.

Day 3 with the withdrawal of Holland Casino, yet nothing on my bank.😄

Videoslots MrVegas are closing down as well , per October 8th.

Hi, I just signed up with fairplaycasino.

Then all of a sudden midgame during my first few spins I was logged out automatically, and my account was frozen.....

Just before that the registration, verification and deposit went quite smooth....

Now I cannot even login anymore. Anyone had that problem?

Cannot even talk to livechat, since as soon as I go to their site a popup appears where I must login, no other options. And ofcourse I cannot login. Only a fully white page with the text: 

401 Unauthorized

Anyone else tried here already and having similar issues?

 

[Slot Lover]

Ik was te snel! Krijg net een email van ze:

Hallo xxx,

 

Wat leuk om te zien dat u er zo snel bij was met het registreren van het account!

 

Momenteel zijn wij nog een aantal functionaliteiten aan het testen om er zeker van te zijn dat wij onze toekomstige spelers zonder problemen en met open armen kunnen ontvangen. Wij hebben om deze reden uw account bevroren en zullen u het bedrag van 150 EUR ( 100 EUR storting + 50 EUR voor het ongemak ) terug storten naar het bekende bankrekeningnummer. 

 

Onze excuses voor het ervaren ongemak en ik zal u persoonlijk nog een e-mail sturen wanneer wij u kunnen ontvangen!

 

Voor nu wens ik u een fijne dag verder.

 

Met vriendelijke groet,
Sam

They are extremely fast! Last night's 1am beauty on Deadwood hit the bank before 12.00



Would be surprising if only MrVegas is closing, but wouldn't mind Videoslots to stay open.
Both are just so good.. Withdrawal time is pretty much instant, cashback, rewards etc.

Withdrawal from betcity took 2.5 hours with ing 👍

Nice overview @Slot Lover 

The casino signup bonus are kind of meh, nothing special but not bad.
The most value for signups as of now is in the sports book bonuses.

The easiest is on Betcity: if you signup before Saturday night and deposit EUR 20, 
you'll get an 'odds boost' for soccermatch Latvia vs Netherlands. 
A bet of maximum EUR 10 will get boosted odds from 1.06 to 3.00 
There is no playthrough for the winnings, value more than EUR 19.
If you are late to the party, you get a 100% up to EUR 20 freebet after placing your first bet.
In order to get the most value from a freebet, you should pick a bet with very high odds. 

The sportsbook with the most value is a bet50get50 match bonus on the sportsbook of Holland Casino. Same as above applies, for the freebets you should pick bets with high odds. The T&C state that the freebet can be used in small pieces. Support is yet to confirm this to me. I asked because the user interface does not show this clearly.

[vanHooff]

Payment speeds of Holland Casino might be picking up.
My first cashout took them 18 hours, other report 24h - 2 days.

Guys, remember to keep it in English, so everyone can enjoy our misery 

So far i have abstained from signing up anywhere. I don't like this idea of Crux, and i don't mind taking a little break.

Have to say though, that at least Fairplay seems to have their shit together! That's a really amicable gesture towards you, assuming that you didn't hit 5000x on your first few spins...

The rest, well most of what i read sounds exactly as what i expected/feared: below par.

There was so much time to prepare, that it all seems like a cheap-ass money grab, where customerservice is the last point on their Agenda... But - time will tell! 

Good luck you guys, and thanks for the updates so far

Registration Batavia no verification sms /email received. I take a break and see next week or later when things go better then this.

Goodluck everybody to register/deposit/withdraw.

[ClimaxNL]

So, it took 4 working days to receive money from Holland Casino. Hopped over to try Batavia, 10 min later on €3,- killed the Book of Ra with an massive €1500,- cashout.

 

As they use Adyen I expect the money tomorrow morning, love Play North. Was really satisfied with their other sites aswell

[Slot Lover]

Batavia is live again and could register and deposit immediately. No bonuses.....
