(a) a current photographic identity document (eg, national identity document, passport, driver's licence, etc);

6.4 The Operator reserves the right, at its reasonable discretion, to suspend the crediting or payment out, of any Betting Funds, pending a full investigation (including providing details to the relevant law enforcement agency where appropriate), where it suspects that the Betting Funds being or have been deposited or attempting to be withdrawn by a Customer, for the purposes of money laundering. An example of where this might occur includes where a Customer deposits a substantial sum in Betting Funds and then attempts to withdraw these Betting Funds having only conducted minimal betting activity on the Internet Betting Service. Full credit or repayment of the Betting Funds will be made to the Customer where the investigation reveals no evidence of money laundering.
6.5 Notwithstanding the terms of Clause 5.7 above, the Operator reserves the right, at its absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time to request that the Customer provides the satisfactory documents as proof of identity, residential address and source of funds referred to in Clause 5.7 above.
