Hi, dear pokerstrategy members.

Strange things happened to me on Cassava network. I never had an account on this network and by their attitude I would not be their long time client.

I opened an account on 12.06.12., deposited 440$ and I played a few tables on NL10 and 1 Sit&Go 1.20$, the software were unknown and I couldnt play for long.
I noted that players were very weak (I knew that already) and from cashgames in 88 hands(I think) I won almost 10$.

Next day in the morning I received next e-mail:

Dear **,
I am Stuart from the Operations Department at Cassava Enterprises (Gibraltar) Ltd. I am contacting you in regards to your 888poker account with username "ti****or".

Your account has been restricted by our Department for security reasons. Before we can lift the restrictions on your account we are required to carry out a security check. To assist us complete this process please send us the following documents:
-- Copy of your passport, driver's licence or national ID card
- Copy of a recent utility bill showing your registered name & address

These documents can be sent to us by you uploading them through the cashier on our site. To do this please log on and then access the cashier through the lobby and select the Verify Your ID option. You will then be guided through a simple process to upload the requested documentation.
I apologise for the inconvenience caused.
Regards,
Stuart
Operations Department
Cassava Enterprises Gibraltar Ltd
operations@cassava.net

I uploaded requested documents yesterday and I sent an e-mail to them asking why they disabled my account, there should be valid reasons.

So after I deposited there I cant acces my account to play, this is an outrageous attitude to new customers. :rage:
Did happen something like this to someone ? :facepalm:
Is this an ordinary security check ?

P.S. Sorry for my broken english.

Hello there repescov,

I think every poker room handles this in a different way and even though its a bit frustrating the Security checks are a standard procedure at any company nowadays. You should be fine If you send in all requested documents.

Let us know if you need any help with this.
Ingrid

I had this same problem with Everest recently.

You would also think they would make the system to submit things more user friendly.

It actually surprises me why anyone would play on these sort of networks.

thanks for the reply, IngridN, now I'm confident that's ok

I was a little surprised of the suspended account in less than 24hours of registration, this is something new to me :)

anyway the main part of my bankroll is spread on another sites so this is not so urgent

Alright then. :) Normally the poker rooms ask for identification first and then block accounts until they don't receive the documents but seems it works differently on each poker room. I'm sure it'll be all fine, if not let us know. :)

Hey there repescov!

As Ingrid mentioned - security checks are super standard now with Poker rooms.

Have you any update regarding your case? Did you get it all sorted?

Kind regards,
Gary
