After having this a few times i keep scanned documents ready for this. Easy thing to do is send the details as soon as possible. Title: Re: CASHING OUT Post by: KarmaDope on December 31, 2009, 06:20:05 PM Surely this can't be standard...oh wait, it is!
Suck it up, send them the info and get your cash. If they're well known then they're an international company, they aren't going to steal the small amount from your account. Title: Re: CASHING OUT Post by: gatso on December 31, 2009, 07:08:26 PM Can any 1 help I could try mocking up a passport for you on photoshop. you'll need to send me a recent photo and let me know what nationality you want to be might be best to just send the details, it's superstandard. you can generally black out some bits if you really want Title: Re: CASHING OUT Post by: byronkincaid on December 31, 2009, 07:12:59 PM must have become standard recently, the only site to ask me for ID to cashout was blonde. party asked me when i moved house and i had to type my TV license number or something into stars recently but that's been it

send bill id and card copies to the poker site. Title: Re: CASHING OUT Post by: Tractor on December 31, 2009, 08:25:20 PM I should add i have moved house recently and changed address so maybe that is why i have had to do it a lot recently.

Can any 1 help Thanks everyone for replies. I was a bit sketchy on first post so full story..... Don't play on line much at all, only live seriously.

CONFUSED OR WHAT Sorry to appear so ignorant maybe its just me ??? After some thought and a phone call to the passport office in which they told me that you should never send a colour copy of your passport to any one. And if you do and you suffer any sort of financial loss,you will find it hard to get money back from the bank as you are behaving in a negligent way. I decided to contact which legal. And they said in my circumstance as I had had no goods or services for my money I could claim from the bank,I told them that the bank wern't interested, they said contact the financial ombudsman I did and they filed a complaint with the bank. They have 8 weeks to respond in writing. Within 1 week I get a call from the bank , telling me AQUA PAY has credited me the same amount it debited 1 week earlier. Funny I said cos I still have $50 in my poker acc that's blocked. 2 days later I get email from site saying my poker acc is now fully closed. ANYWAY 2 THOSE WHO SAID JUST SEND IT THEM. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED . asking for a full colour copy of your passport is seen as unreasonable practice to release monies that belong to you |
