Why do many casinos block their players, and how to avoid it?

February 23, 2021 Posted by Abigail Massimo Editorial No Comments

Have you ever been locked out of a gaming platform in Norway? It must have been a bad experience. Ardent gaming enthusiasts understand that surfing through the internet and getting exciting games to play feels good.

Casino gambling is a hot trend. But to enjoy gaming, casino players must understand that the casino has specific terms that they must adhere to. That’s why there are terms and conditions that one must know before they sign up or play any game. The common measures against you include; blocking your account from accessing the gaming services you need.

There are instances of that suspension your account will happen without your knowledge. Don’t worry because our expert Alexandra Nereng, whose bio you can find here, will help you know what to do and how to avoid them.

Common reasons for online casinos to block accounts

Failed verification process

Casinos in Norway will want to ensure that it is dealing with a real person. It’s challenging to know genuine users if there is no verification of accounts during the sign-up process. Cases of people using bots to play in casinos and using proceeds from crime are very common in the modern world.

That makes them set up a verification process that requires the users to provide a copy of their identification cards and other essential documentation. If the verification process fails, the account will be suspended temporarily or blocked by the support. The leading factors include invalid documents or inadequate documentation.

Underage gambling

Underage gambling is illegal in most parts of the world. Any casino company offering gambling services to minors is subject to stringent measures, including suspension of license.

The companies have put mechanisms such as a strict verification process to eliminate underage gamblers from their sites to regulate that. They mostly detect that upon submission of their identity cards copies. Gamblers in Norway must thus be of age before they embark on the search for betting sider.

Suspicious activity

The casino sites in Norway will never compromise any illegal activity on their users’ accounts. The advent of AI technology in the online casino industry helps to monitor the casino players’ actions.

As such, the casino can detect when something wrong is happening. To eradicate users who engage in suspicious patterns, the gambling casinos have the authority to block such users from accessing their accounts and their gaming services.

Too-Big winnings

Like other businesses, the online casino also minds about their profit and loss margin. They have to strike a balance between the two. Therefore, when you join a site and start winning consistently over a given period, the casinos will notice and monitor you. If they find out you are reaping too much from them, they may block your account to help them balance their losses.

Too many unsuccessful login attempts

Norwegian online casinos are aware of cyber threats on the internet. They also know that some people will try to access other users’ accounts using their details. In a scenario where the casino support team realises that someone is trying to access your account several times and it fails; they will block your account. The reason is to save your data and bankroll.

Fortunately, the suspension, in some cases, allows the player to contact the support team to reactivate their account. Upon reactivation of the account, the player must put a two-factor verification method to prevent future attempts to hack the account.

What are the best ways of preventing your account from getting blocked?

  • Learn how to gamble responsibly. It all starts with you staking what you can afford to lose.
  • Provide all the relevant documentation for verification. That will show the platform moderators that you are a legit user. It will also remove any doubt they will have on you.
  • Engage only in activities that the site owners authorise. The support team is keen on users who don’t engage in responsible gambling, and that’s what has been a reason for the blocking of many users.
  • When you sign up for an online casino account, don’t share your account information with third parties. That will make your account secure from access by any authorised parties.

Winning in online casinos and avoiding being blocked is easy when you follow the above tips.
