Re: small test deposit at a new offshore site, how it went

<t>I've never done a proper test deposit, just dived in, so this is making me think. When you say get the KYC ready, is that just having photos of the passport and a statement on your phone ready to upload? Or do you verify somewhere first?<br/>

Asking because the last new site I joined held ...

Re: How i work out the real wagering before accepting

<t>This is really helpful actually, I'm fairly new and have just been clicking accept and hoping. Quick question, where do you usually find the game weighting? Is it on the offer page or somewhere else?<br/>
<br/>
Also is 35x bonus only generally considered alright? Trying to get a feel for normal ...

Re: Do a small test withdrawal before depositing big

<t>never thought to do this, makes total sense though.<br/>
<br/>
quick q, does requesting a small withdrawal like that mess with any welcome bonus wagering? worried i'd cash out a tenner and accidentally forfeit something. or is that only if you withdraw the deposit itself before the wagering's ...

signs it's getting a bit much, let's talk without the drama

<t>Want to start a calm thread on this, no lectures, no preaching.<br/>
<br/>
We all play for fun on here but it's worth being honest about the little signs that something's drifting. For me the tell was chasing. Down on the night and thinking one more spin sorts it, when of course it never does.<br ...

Re: How i check a site before putting any money in

this is dead useful actually, I never thought to click through to the register. just assumed the badge was enough.

quick question, on the offshore Curacao sites that aren't on GAMSTOP, do those checks even apply or is it a totally different thing? trying to understand where they sit.

Re: Open Banking vs debit card for withdrawals, which is actually faster

<t>Quick question, does the Open Banking review you mention happen every withdrawal or just the first? That's the bit that'd decide it for me.<br/>
<br/>
I've only used card so far. Slowest was a bank holiday weekend, sat three days, which was misery when you can see the money's left their end. If ...

Re: Next day withdrawal, full writeup of how it went

thanks for posting this, the timeline bit really helps. I always panic when it says pending and assume something's wrong.

New here, say hello and what you actually play

<t>Been lurking a couple of weeks and figured I should actually say hello rather than just reading everyone's payout sagas.<br/>
<br/>
So. Hi. Lou, up near Leeds, casual weekend player, mostly slots and the odd bit of blackjack when I'm feeling brave. I came here off the back of trying to work out ...
