Dear btcasian,

Thank you for your patience whilst we're looking into your documents.

As per the Player Safety team's request, we'd kindly ask you to provide your Russian/Ukrainian documents also - discussed in a previous chat conversation - in order to complete the account verification process.

We greatly appreciate your understanding.

Should you have any further questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,

Molly

I wouldn't say that they are a scam, but they have proven in the past to be pretty shady, especially on the identity verification end of things.

The problem is that they let you deposit without any sort of ID, don't actually warn you about any potential ID verification unless you are diligent enough to read through their entire terms and conditions section. And there are absolutely no warnings until it's too late for you to produce IDs.

For it to be fair for the customer, I think the most sensible thing to do as a business, espeically when involved with bitcoin where privacy is valued highly, would be to not allow deposits until one is ID verified, or at least have a warning when one deposits that withdrawals will require ID.

Your only options would be to try negotiate an alternative outcome with the support of Cloudbet, and hopefully they budge on their rules; or to submit the ID docs required.

Thank you for this feedback, magneto - I will ensure it is passed on to the team.

If you have had an issue with Cloudbet, please let me know your nickname/registered email address so I can look into this for you.

Many thanks

How could this be? Why does a Bitcoin Bookmaker asks for identity card, utility bill and Selfies?
I haven't tried them but with a quick search, I found this (I guess it's just a normal procedure for withdrawing large amounts):

Has anyone an idea what I can do? I just want to receive my 0,4858 BTC and say goodbye to cloudbet...
I think you should give them the necessary information (things they asked for).

I dont know what I have done wrong, but I have again big problems with Cloudbet. On my account are 0,4858 BTC at the moment. I opened my account on March 24th and made four deposits in the first three weeks. I lost a lot at the beginning, on April 14th I made my first withdrawal request which was transfered instantly. My 0,07 BTC withdraw from 26th April was transfered after 4 days, which was some kind of strange, because Livechat and Email Support told me that I will be paid within 24 hours.
Yesterday afternoon I made a new 80 MBT withdraw which was pending until this morning. I asked how long it will take this time by email and became this email which is unbelieveable:

How could this be? Why does a Bitcoin Bookmaker asks for identity card, utility bill and Selfies? I made a Cloudbet account in March, because these verification documents are not necessary. I will not send my identity card or private pictures of me to Cloudbet. I thought Cloudbet is a serious bitcoin bookmaker, but what happened today is a big fraud in my opinion. Has anyone an idea what I can do? I just want to receive my 0,4858 BTC and say goodbye to cloudbet...
