Online Casinos in general: Skrill lock

I created a Skrill account a few days ago and made a few deposits.

Today a win went into the Skrill and my Skrill account was immediately blocked. I got the info by mail (microsoft e-mail). However, it was possible to log into Skrill and upload my passport and have my picture taken via webcam. Afterwards it said - we are overloaded and the check can take a few days.

The greatest thing was - a few minutes later my mail address was also blocked at Microsoft (it actually said because of Skrill) and I had to go through the whole procedure for unblocking.

Well, I can't do anything with my Skrill balance anymore, but I wonder why it's legal to block email accounts with other providers.

The whole process reminds me of some casinos - only when you want to withdraw something, you are checked as if you were Al Capone himself.

Has anyone else had such an experience?

I can agree with you that the Verification process with Skrill is very cumbersome. (It is best to use a .com email address, .de seems to have problems with receiving mails).

I had to verify myself once (the problem you describe) and then my bank account. After going through all that, though, Skrill works fine. Have also had a high 4 figure amount paid out to Skrill. Everything went without any problems.

My account was restricted until the verification was through. But that seems to be normal

This is a "normal" process - I deposited money directly after creating the account and when I wanted to Deposit again the next day, I got a message that my account was "restricted" until the Verification was complete
After the verification was completed, however, I have (so far) never again had problems with Skrill
Accordingly, of course, unpleasant to be unable to dispose of your money for a short time now, but in itself a normal process and once this is completed Skrill should work smoothly
What I also do not understand how that could happen with your mail address - I did not have that at the time

yes..the email address thing is very strange- I took a screenshot of it for security and only then unlocked my email account

My Skrill account is currently also "restricted" ....no withdrawal or Deposit possible

Let's see how long it will take.

With me it went reasonably quickly but I think after they have already announced it, it will take a few days in your case
Otherwise, you do not have to worry about Skrill - from then on everything should work smoothly
