We apologise to the customers from the countries detailed below for the inconvenience caused.

Money Laundering:
All transactions are subject to a security audit and as such when using the cashier your IP address will be recorded to help identify you and protect your funds. Transactions are checked to prevent money laundering and fraud with any suspicious transactions being reported to the relevant authorities.

Any funds deposited must not derive from criminal activity and players are not permitted to use their player account to attempt to transfer funds between each other.

Players shall not treat the licensee as a financial institution nor expect interest on their deposits and players should only deposit funds they intend to use in connection with participation in the Games. Amounts deposited and attempted to be withdrawn by you without being used for gaming purposes may be viewed as indicative of money laundering and could result in your account being locked and the funds being seized.

Amounts may only be remitted to the same card or account from which funds were paid into the player's account.

Reversal of Funds
A player can request a full refund following a deposit providing that none of the funds deposited have been used to play any of the games. Please note, this is not a withdrawal and is a reversal of the funds deposited. Players are prohibited from selling/transferring or attempting to sell or transfer their accounts to third parties.

Withdrawal limit:
Prior to processing aggregate withdrawals in excess of €2,000, a player's identity, age and place of residence must be verified. We reserve the right to withhold any monies requested when aggregate withdrawals exceed €2,000 until the requested information is provided. Only a photo identification document such as a passport of driving license, together with a recent (not older than three months) utility bill clearly displaying the player name and address as per the player registration, will be considered as valid proof of identity and residence. Players are therefore fully responsible to ensure that registration information is maintained upto date and verifiable.

Player limits:
You may instruct us to limit your deposits by sending us an e-mail to help@premierbingo.com  with your instructions, or by sending a registered letter to the contact address at the bottom of this page. The limits will be imposed immediately upon receipt of your instructions and if you wish to remove the self imposed deposit limits, you must inform us by e-mail or registered letter first and the limits will be removed not less than 7 days from receipt of your request.
