Hey Andy
Have just submitted my bank statement. I’ll pop onto the chat tonight. What’s this selfie bollocks, LOL. I look like a hobo at the moment, big hair and beard!!
SlotsBlogger
Ok my friend, let’s take a look at the account tonight before we pour petroleum all over selfiegate and ignite that baby again! Now you have sent your statement in we have something to work from when we look later.
Nah not done it, account still locked, I’ve tried a few times but the upload process doesn’t work on the desktop or my mobile and then it dawns on me, why the fuck am i sending a selfie to a casino and i spit my dummy out again. I never used to have a problem uploading documents on my desktop but now it looks for a camera that isn’t there, what happened to just dropping a file in of said document?
What I can do for you here Mr Bandit is you can send it to me at [email protected] and I will place it on your account for you and then personally over see the verification. How does that sound? Just a file like the old days
11No news on the Bees yet guys I’m afraid as SlotsBlogger has yet to come in and let me assist him. On a positive note, think of the honey that they are producing in the hive while we get this sorted! As far as the selfie goes Bandit I can not say for sure until I can look at his account but my guess would be a YES. Have you done yours yet?
Maybe just me but imagine a non slot player reading the above
ive got a maxed hive and 80 bees collected ……. be like eh , wtf ?
But to us, it all makes so much sense…..The man has 80 Bees for christ sake!
1Hi SlotsBlogger
Jump on to the Live Chat and ask for Andy, I am working nights this week so I will be available any time after 10pm GMT
I can take a look at the account and see if I can help you through the process

11Hi Bandit
Sorry to just be picking this up now, been off work for the Mrs Birthday, I guessed I would be walking into this on my return to after watching your latest ReelKing exploits and hearing your comments at the end.
The selfie ID is not a legal requirement at all, it is an extra level of security that we implemented a while ago to help in our prevention against underage play, fraud and financial crimes and is working very well as a deterrent.
Yes, we know you are who you say you are Bandit and I believe that if you sent in photos of the fat man off ReelKing as your selfie you would probably get passed on it! But, I am afraid that once again it is the few that spoil it for the many. We have to be very careful when it comes to things to do with underage gambling, fraudulent accounts, money laundering and the use of fake documents, with the simple introduction of the selfie ID it has eliminated the problem almost entirely.
We can not discriminate or cheery pick the players that we request if from as that would not work so the easiest thing was to make it an across the board requirement on all accounts, just like KYC is now.
I am sorry but I have no magic power to wave you passed the process and it is somthing that they do require on your account.
If you do have any issues uploading any documents to your account at any point, now or in the future, you can send them to [email protected] and I will be able to do it for you
32I have a question or two for Casumo Andy.
Is the RTP per machine shared by any other players like it should be or is it per player ?
Casinos were allowed to change the RTP within legal limits, is this still true with virtual slots ?
To some people the answers seem obvious, while others have wondered.
Hello Mr B
If I am understanding your question correctly you are asking if, for instance, the Bandit would have a greater RTP set on his account due to the fact that he is “in the business” against someone like yourself, a regular account holder? The answer is a categorical no, absolutely not!
You will have the same “Return to player” as the Bandit or any other affiliate, affiliate streamer or anyone else in the industry for that matter while playing at the same casino.
I spend on average 12 hours a day, if not more, watching casino streamers at work and at home and I always see the usual chat comments “streamer button” “rigged for streamer” and for the ones, with little or no vocabulary “fake” I do always have a chuckle to myself, being on the inside, so to speak, I am behind the curtain on how it all works. I am not saying that if I were not in the privileged position that I am I would not be in the camp sceptic from time to time!
Slots, by way of design, are always in the casino’s favour and mathematically will always come out a few % ahead on every game that they host and yes when you have a 1000+ games that few % does equate to a good business module. You should never play slots for financial gain, yes there is always the chance that a certain point’s you will show a profit but over the course of time you will be showing a loss. Always play with what you can afford to lose, set limits and look at them as entertainment that is more enjoyable than golf with the occasional chance of coming out ahead! Something I would never have the chance to do on a golf course.
The part of the industry that I feel seems to manage to dodge the negative press is the actual providers themselves! They design the games for us to showcase on your behalf, for players to enjoy, love or hate. When a new game is launched they offer the casino the game to add to their platform, along with that offer, the casino is offered a choice of what is called “Return to player configuration” Included in this will be the default RTP of say 96.5% there will then be 4 or 5 other options like 94.1% – 87.5% and 84.5% the casino will then choose the tariff package that they would like the game set on. Knowing this information is why it is so important to be selective when you are playing slots at an online casino and to only play at reputable ones like Casumo. The same game at different casinos can have quite a wide margin of difference between them but they will always have the same RTP level set across all accounts that play there, the Bandit will have the same RTP as yourself if you were to play at the same casino.
There is no magic streamer button! The difference between the majority of streamers and the player is (The Bandit is excluded in part of this as in the 100s of hours of watching his content if my memory serves me correctly, I have only ever seen him use a deposit bonus once and I think it confused him a little so he didn’t do it again!) Availability of deposit bonuses, hours spent playing slots, regularity of playing slots, earnings from their personal affiliate deals and in the Bandits case a set of BIG BALLS!
This clears a hell of a lot up that I had questioned in the past.
<span style=”font-size: 1rem;”>I have</span><span style=”font-size: 1rem;”> a question about is the way that RTP works however.</span>
So say for example, Reel King on Casumo. The RTP is shown as XX.X%
Is that RTP site wide? Or is that RTP worked out over the duration of one single players account?
So if it was a site wide RTP, that would make me think that seeing TheBandits wins, and massive RTP on Reel King that I would stay away from that game on Casumo, because surely if he’s £170k up on that single game over the past 6months, that means the 170k will have to be recouped from elsewhere.
On the other hand, if it is over the duration of an account, these numbers that TheBandit is getting are even more special.
So the game designers will design the games math to a base RTP that they decide, this will be the top tier of the options that are offered to casinos for arguments sake call it 96% any casino that decides to stiff the player a little more will chose to set theirs at a lower configuration. This makes the dodgy casinos theoretical forecasted profits more than the reputable casinos but as this is based on billions and billions of spins the fact that Bandit has smashed/been smashed by Reel King at Casumo doesn’t make it less or more likely for more big wins/losses to come. It is never an account or casino RTP, it is a overall game RTP but still helps to play at a casino that has the RTP set at the best possible configuration for the player as the slightest adjustment in % of billions of spins is a lot.
It’s all good now, Andy. My main and probably unclear point is the humiliation for an older type of bloke to take a selfie with his driving licence. My account got verified and I received my withdrawal.
If I could be bothered, and I’m not, I’d question you about GDPR but I suppose the days are coming when you are going to have to provide photographic ID for almost everything. 1984 and all that.
Glad to hear that it’s all sorted for you DAC, you can always get me on here or in chat at Casumo if you ever need assistance or just have a question to ask. The selfie is something that we have been doing for a while now and I personally think it is a good idea (but I am ever so handsome) but we do understand that it can be a little strange for the, as you put it so well, the 1984 generation. I am not sure where all of this ends but my guess will be biometrics!
1The majority of the time we will request it at the 2k mark, when your account deposits, withdraws or a combination of both amount to this total, as set out by the UKGC. That is not the only time we can or do request it, we will request if there is a case of multiple accounts, 3rd party payment methods have been used, if you fail to come up on the initial checks that the system carry’s out on account creation to be able to verify your of legal age, if a device fingerprint is used on more than one account, IP addresses linked to more than one account, multiple accounts in one house and that is to name a few of the reasons that it may have been requested early (pre 2k). As long as your account is created with legitimate details and you have the documents that you know we are going to request at some point there is never going to be a problem, and yes we do have a poor guy in the corner checking accounts! The only part of that you got incorrect is there is more than one of them, there is a team!
Andy, hello.
I’ve been mucking about with Casumo for ages now, when the verification request came through I thought “no problem, I have a folder with all my docs, I’ll whack that over and get verified in a couple of days” – I just thought asking for a photo holding up my ID to my ugly mug was a bit humiliating and somewhat out of order. I accept I maybe old school but I know the UKGC do not require you to do this.
I’ve played through about 3.5K with you guys, my net deposits with you is £46.10 – I play from one IP and no one in the house has a Casumo account other than me so I’m going to remain cynical. That said, Casumo is a good Casino and thanks for being on BIAM.
I am not currently at work or I would say if you really wish to find out pop into live chat and I will pull up your account. If you still wish to do that I can give you a name of a ambassador that can assist you personally now.

” if a device fingerprint is used on more than one account”
Is that even legal? Having record of people’s biometric data?
Doesn’t bother me to be honest, just wondered
It’s not a fingerprint! We are not the CIA. It’s know as a fingerprint, say you have an account and your friend has an account, you use your phone to play on Casumo and then your friend uses your phone to play on his Casumo account, those two accounts are then linked to that digital device fingerprint. Hope that clears that up for you Damo

Isn’t just a bit humiliating? Sure, if they are that worried about verification they should make you do it before you deposit anything.
I’m going to close my account once my withdrawal is done, I don’t like being made to feel like a C**t
If we asked you to do it when you create the account the gripe would be “I just want to play some slots man” If we ask you to do it after your first deposit the gripe would be “I have only made one deposit, why you want that now?” If we do it at a random time, maybe when you have not been active so it doesn’t interfere with A: you wanting to play slots B: have a pending withdrawal the response would be “I will do that another time” If we requested at first withdrawal the gripe will be “You took my money now I want to withdraw my winnings you want all this stuff” If we do it at the UKGC 2k Mark the gripe is “I have deposited and withdrawn loads before, why you want this now?”
There is never a an optimal time to request the required documents from a player! We do try and make the process as smooth as possible for all players that are in the KYC stage of their account. It is a regulation that we must adhere to that enables us to be able to showcase all the slots that you guys and girls love to moan about!

61I can do that for you, sure.
As the data is personal to your account I can get it together and send it over to you via email, you can then post it as you wish
You will have some facts and stats by the morning Sir
Hi Hitmaker,
It is deposit plus bonus x30 so it would be the latter of £18k, you do however have the option to cash out and cancel the remaining bonus funds and take the raw cash generated at any point.
Andy
