more or less,  Grin
I try to read some "major parts" of each TOS, likewise: terms for deposits/withdrawal/restricted locations/how to handle issues...

But, if I need to use more "often" a casinos it become a must understand what are issues on such cases...likewise market suspended, match voided and so on.

TOS are boring, and most of the time are also hard to be understood due language barrier and many many pages of text...but these must be known and used in a proper way...

If you managed to read the terms and conditions until the end, then you're definitely not an average person. Who wants to read that lengthy and boring text when all you want is to sign up for entertainment like an online casino? You only become concerned about the terms and conditions if you encounter an issue after agreeing to them. While these conditions may include many of the complaints that users have, it's understandable that people don't often take the time to read them.

No one likes reading through terms and conditions but we don't have a choice, its tiring to even look at the whole words on screen and start reading, but how will you know if they support your location? How will you know if KYC is compulsory? How will you know if they don't like you using VPN and proxies? I want to know.

Isn't this the reason why some people get bad experience gambling on a casino and they are ask to pass KYC by force? When you broke rules at times you may not even know what you did wrong, that's why you have to know what your casino likes and what they don't like or else you will have to pay for not reading the terms and conditions from the start.

I will say that this is a good way to avoid making stupid mistakes, before you make your first deposit on any online casino its better to read their terms and conditions first.

True, the terms and conditions provided by casinos especially those based online are usually very long, kind of like a boring newspaper, and I think one of the things that makes people lazy to read all the terms and conditions is because basically and in general usually people don't want to be regulated and they always want something instant, I don't think they don't find or have time to read it but there is no other reason than it all looks boring, they come to get involved right away and not to read some theory that they don't think is too important.

Of course, the purpose of casinos creating KYC requirements is none other than because as you mentioned, casinos want to be sure of what exactly the purpose of the gamblers who come, if they are just to gamble then no problem but on the other hand it is always unpredictable that there must also be those who intend to make casinos a place to launder money, but on the other hand not many gamblers want to do it on the basis of privacy which is their main reason, even though it is all also for the safety and comfort of gamblers during their involvement.

My opinion on this is that only casinos in countries where gambling and crypto currency are legal can definitely use kyc. Since gambling is illegal in many countries so cannot run a casino influenced by kyc even if you want to. Moreover it behaves quite annoyingly. You have to understand that no one keeps money on the casino site. Gambling on the other hand does not require much analysis and kyc is not at all good for an addicted gambler and it is wise to gamble with privacy.
Nope, it's really varies.

UK, Canada and US have a strict rules about gambling, but they allow gambling only in regulated casinos in their own countries. So it's not that gambling is illegal on there, they just have their own rules.

While some countries declare gambling is illegal, but if the casino allow that country to gamble, there's will be no problem.

I don't find it easy to do but its just once or twice, you won't be doing the same every time you log into your account, I am using up to four online casinos but I stay with two now because they are my favourite, I have read their terms and conditions many months ago, just in case, to avoid doing something that I won't know its against their rules.

If you don't want to end up with problems you need to read through their terms and conditions, I know it can be hard but its about the sake of your experience when gambling on the platform, you don't want to do something that will make them block your access to the casino until you pass KYC or do other things they require.

Some don't even read at all until they are asked to pass KYC and they will scream scam on the casino when its already available on their terms and conditions that KYC is mandatory, to avoid problems you just have to do it.

Reading the rules of each casino where we gamble is a must, even if we only read some of the rules. Maybe we need to look for basic regulations such as withdrawals, deposits, KYC, and anything else we want so that we know the rules that are allowed and not allowed by the casino. This is to prevent us from making mistakes that could give us difficulties. As customers or gamblers at the casino, we must know the rules before registering or creating an account. If we don't match the rules, we can look for another casino that we want.
They say that a few is better than nothing at all. So yeah. And besides, the later parts of the TOS are I think not important anymore. I mean they are too complicated, that it looks like it wasn't really meant for us normal users. Am I right, guys? What we only need to know is like you said (the basics), because this is the main function of the casino. But even these, I admit that I disregard them before.

I'm still lucky though that I didn't get into any serious troubles. But right now, I'm more careful, especially that KYC is already a thing. It makes sense on why rules are placed below the login and sign-up button. This is for us to read and decide if we agree on it or not. This forum, specifically the gambling section is also a good help to know the casino's rules, because they can insert it there in their announcement threads.

The terms and conditions of casinos and other companies is usually very lengthy and somehow boring for some people. Hence , many people rarely find time to read them. They may actually contain some of the complaints that people raise about some casinos such requiring KYC if there is need or suspicion of money laundering activities.

What is your take on this?
Honestly, sometimes I only read the important things that I want to know. But I make sure that the casino where I am going to play is a trustworthy and recommended of most gamblers here. Because even you didn't read their rules one by one, you'll already gain idea due to the experience of gamblers who played there.

Anyway, of course it is advisable to read the ToS before using the platform. This is crucial and necessary to become aware of the rules. Especially the KYC section wherein many gamblers are still not comfortable submitting their personal information.

Let's be honest; I'm sure almost everyone here didn't read the terms and conditions. As the OP said, they are quite lengthy and take time to read, so it's quite common that most only skip them and just check the check box. But the thing is, they're crucial because they contain the terms and conditions of the casino, and sometimes they have hidden terms or conditions that's hard to read if you didn't read the terms and conditions carefully. So I think it takes time and dedication to read this statement, and if you are a very meticulous person, then you can read this kind of condition without a problem. I myself admit that I mostly don't read these terms and conditions because I'm a lazy person, but I still searched and did assessments on the website I chose to play with to know if they had any suspicions, conditions, or rules that could affect my funds.

If casinos will make their terms and conditions more shorter and readable, a lot more gamblers will take the time to read through what the casino says. The problem with term and conditions is that asides the fact that they can be long and boring, the font used for the writing of theses terms is not always attractive to read, hence many gamblers do not waste time there, but will quickly accept the terms and conditions even without reading.

Some other gamblers also assume that the terms and conditions of all casinos are the same, so because they have read the T and C for this casino, they do not read the  conditions by the other casino.
It is a deliberate act by these casinos and every other company in terms of the pattern the terms and conditions are made and designed. By normal standard we all know that almost every human don't find interest reading a long writing of similar and repeated notes in different ways so these casinos take advantage of that human state to make the terms and conditions of their services seem boring and long for users to read to the end. But it will be helpful if we dedicate time in reading them to the end. It's completely untrue to think that two different casinos can have same ToS of service there's always many nuance in them actually.
On the time that i do make out those registering times then i do assume that most of terms and conditions are just identical and this is why i dont bother myself on reading those things.

If i do have the time and in good emotion or feeling then i might be considering on reading up some keypoints or something which is important to read up with those terms.We do know that
this is really that informations that we do need to read upon but cant really blame out on why people do skip these things? Reading up on a whole bunch of text would
really be time consuming and really needing up that effort on doing so on which this is something that we dont really like honestly speaking.

Reading the terms and conditions of a casino is tiring, but it's crucial to have them in mind before depositing money on the website. Gamblers who complain about not being attended to or losing out on their accounts didn't run research on the casino's terms of service before playing games in the casino. No matter how lengthy it may seem, having a glance at the most important sections of the TOS like the reason why a player can get banned and denied his winnings wouldn't cost us time. These two regular problems always appear on different gambling review sites and most times the gambler is blamed for not complying with the terms and conditions of the casino. Because he didn't read the lengthy write-ups he get banned and restricted from accessing money. Yes, I do read through the TOS of any online casino I'd want to deposit money and stake games. Even went the extra mile to discuss with the customer service of the casino to understand better about a few terms

that I was not able to grasp the meaning. For any avid reader, the length of a TOS isn't up to the amount of pages in a book. Reading them helps in knowing the different game providers and their restricted countries. The gambler would be aware of the status of his country in the casino's game provider and also differentiate the games to play if the provider isn't compatible with his country. Hence, going through the Terms and Conditions of a casino is crucial and saves the gambler from long-lasting harsh experiences. The only funny aspect of the punishment is that most casinos wait until the player wins his game before they penalize him. Therefore the casino also earns money from the gambler after terminating his account. In a nutshell, since it has to do with money, and we accepted that we've read the Terms and Conditions before joining the casino, the gambler should endeavor and read it. So that when issues like going to court arise the gambler wouldn't be at fault and sanctioned for his carelessness.

What is your take on this?
Actually I do gambling mostly on those reputable casinos who are already established. So that I don't have face any problem with KYC requirement or the KYC policy. Yes it is true that many of US avoid KYC verification for the privacy. But it is also true that you will not find a well reputable casino who don't require kyc at it all. Because for becoming a reputable casino you have to gain trust of your user and peoples and trust can also gain by the licence and those licence always required for KYC policy for anti money laundering law. So I always avoid those new casinos all looks like a little bit suspicious to me.

Once again I can just quote one prominent member of this forum: "Real gamblers don't read Tos"! Smiley

The ToS is the same everywhere, when we read the ToS several times in different casinos, I don't think there is any point in reading the same thing every time. If I take a peak it will be about KYC, whether is it mandatory or not, and that's it.

But when it comes to promotions & bonuses I will read ToS, some promotions & bonuses can have special rules... so before I decide to join them I will take a look at the rules, after being disqualified a few times I learned my lesson.

Why not, i do read the terms and condition before registering in a casino app or platform. Most terms and privacy policy are different in various gambling platforms and if you do not take time to read the rules you may end up accepting what will affect you later. You know most people do not sharing some informations but some gambling sites wants you to share your informations to them and for someone like me i wont accept.

I would say and telling the truth that im not, whenever i do register for a new account then i do it immediately and trying out to check out that tick box and agree on everything.  Grin

Yes, it is risky but this is really that my behavior ever since but so far i havent experienced on being locked up due to some country restriction but i dont make use of those
VPN as long i could be able to access such site not unless if you are really that forcing yourself on doing so even if its blocked then it would be understandable that you shouldnt really enter forcibly.
But in overall it is really just that recommended for you to do such thing on reading up those TOS because usually gamblers do really end up on committing violations
just because they had missed out on doing such thing.

Honestly No, and I don’t think that anyone does read anything of more than two or three pages. You just need to know the basic and important things that all casinos share, the difference will be with some small details and sometimes they are so important to take decisions.
Once you agree on those terms you are fully giving the casino permission and access on what you agreed. Sometimes you can’t know if your region is restricted from playing, so if you ever made a deposit and tried to withdraw the casino has the right to ban and lock your winnings.

It’s really important to choose a casino which is used by people you know and didn’t have any issues before, otherwise read all the terms and rules to not face issues after gambling.

Actually I don't read everything, just the important details. It's too long, you can skip it and just go to the important information. That's what I do most of the time, but sometimes when I'm in the mood I read everything, it depends. ?I've also noticed that most gamblers here don't read everything either, that's lazy too
because it's time-consuming, you can immediately go to the important details.
