Hello AAAA, – Well if you say that you are an online gambler for some quite of time, and since you call 3000$ won in a slot bonus round a `small amount of money` I suppose you were betting at least 15$-20$ per spin. I also suppose you are not at your first withdrawal of this amount, or are you ?

First of all, you should know that identity verification processes consist in providing the bookie/casino your real and unaltered identity documents. Maybe some bookies/casinos will not be requireing you any identity proof documents at all, but from what I know, most of them, will ask for it. And for a sum with 4 figures 95% of them will ask for your identity proof documents. 

And yes, this may include 300 dpi scanned copies of: some recent utility bills (ususally two) issued to you in the last 60 days, a copy of your latest bank account statement, copies of back and front of your credit card (even if you have deposited via an e-wallet such as Neteller or Moneybookers/Skrill and not used your credit card directly to your casino/bookie as a deposit method!), some others may request you to provide them a screenshot of your e-wallet account showing them how much money you have in your e-wallet account! But when it comes to identity verification all of them will request you a high resolution colour copy of a valid photo ID document such as Passport, ID Card, or Driver License. All documents have to show your full name and home address on the print! Some bad ass casinos/bookies will even step further and have the nerve to ask you to provide them a notarised copy of your valid photo ID document, plus a picture of you holding that document in hand near your face, and plus a phone confirmation from where you have notarised your document/s !!!

Please note, that any online gambling website can ask for ALL of these procedural steps for identity veryfication purposes at any point in time while you are their customer. (and you, as a player agree with all of this when ticking `I have read and accept the Terms and Conditions` when you register your account) Even very well known and trusted casinos are actually proceeding to this identity verification steps even for a minimum withdrawal of 20$ !!! (WilliamHill had such a case) They dont care if you are living in Holland (Amsterdam) where this notarisation procedure of one of your identity documents cost around 75 Euro !!!

What a player can do TO COMBAT ALL THIS HASSLE (at least in a percentage of 80% anyway) is to send one recent utility bill copy and a copy of his/her Driver Licence (or any copy of a card containing your photo ID and home address on it – such as a hypermarket shopping card) and get verified BEFORE making your first deposit at the desired gambling website !

In my opinion, 3000$ IS BIG MONEY just because many casinos even trusted ones, and even few of the ones which are recommended here on Casino Deal will pay it in installments, and will have a weekly/monthly pay limit lower than this sum.

And finally, a last word about Cirrus Casino and the others sister casino sites in its group, yes, it is very good that now you did your research better than before your deposit at these scumbags, and now we have the complete list of their group. YES, ALL CASINOS IN THIS GROUP are ROGUE !!! (but not for the run-around they gave you, but for other tactics they use)

However, for any player which is not an advantage player, first choice for a Microgaming casino should be JackpotCity Casino, (yes they are actually much better than 32Red keep this in mind!) for a RTG (Real Time Gaming) casino the first choice should be ClubWorld casinos chain (this includes BuzzLuck – `NU` platform – different games than usual RTG, Manhattan Slots, HighNoon, LuckyRed, Alladin`sGold, and All-Star Slots), for a Playtech casino platform the first choice should be Bet365, and for TopGame casino platform to be honest there are really no good casinos, but if you really want to play TopGame games for real money then I recommend you guys Rome Casino ONLY if you sign up with them via Casino Deal ! Even so, BEWARE that TopGame powered casinos ARE NOT TARGETED FOR LOWROLLERS and ALL those casinos INCLUDING Rome Casino total maximum pay out is only a maximum of 10 times of your last deposit if your last deposit was smaller than 250$ !!! - Basically if you are really lucky and win lets say 10000$, but have deposited 249$, then 7510$ will be VOIDED and only 2490$ paid out (possible in installments?) and the account reset to 0$ !!!

Other than that there are also some other (smaller?) platforms, but these are my top reccomandations for where to play at different casino platforms, and all my recommendations are supported by Casino Deal and you can sign up via their links. (Unfortunately, my self I can not do so because I already have accounts at almost all the enumerated recommended casinos.)
