What happens if an ODI/T20 match is abandoned?

If the real match is abandoned fantasy match will be cancelled and the entry fees will be refunded. This includes scenarios where the real match is abandoned without a single ball being bowled, as well as where the match is abandoned after it has started.

Why do I need a PAN card for withdrawals?

Consider11 is the India's most interesting Fantasy Sports platform where you can win real cash legally. Your withdrawals on Consider11 involve transfer of money from your Consider11 account to your bank account, and hence PAN Card has become a mandatory requirement as a proof of identity.

You can apply for a PAN Card in the meantime & once you receive it, upload it along with the address proof and bank details to get your Consider11 account verified. You will then be able to withdraw any amounts to your bank account.

Why did my verification fail?

Some of the major reasons why your verification request may have failed are:

1 - PAN Card (mandatory) is not uploaded as id proof for verification * Your withdrawals on Consider11 involve transfer of money. Hence, PAN Card is mandatory to get your Consider11 account verified. Please upload a clear image of your PAN Card.

2 - PAN number on the card does not match with the PAN number entered during verification request * Double check the PAN number that you have entered to avoid errors

3 - Date of Birth on the PAN Card does not match with the Date of Birth on your Consider11 account * Please ensure that you enter the exact Date of Birth on the verification request, as it appears on the PAN Card

4 - Name on the PAN Card does not match with the name on the bank account * You can withdraw money from your Consider11 account only to your own bank account. Hence, the name on the PAN Card and bank account needs to match.

5 - IFSC code provided in the bank details is incorrect/belongs to a different bank branch than the one mentioned for verification purposes. * If you provide the wrong IFSC code, your money could be transferred to someone else's account. So, make sure you enter the correct code. You can find the IFSC code in your cheque book, passbook or bank statements. If you're not sure, please contact your bank to get the correct code.

6 - The documents uploaded by you are not clear/visible * Our experts are humans after all! Please help them by uploading clear documents so that they can verify your details quickly.

7 - Bank account number entered in verification request does not match with account number appearing on the uploaded proof. * You don't want your hard-earned money going to someone else's account, right? Neither do we! So please ensure that you enter the exact bank account number in the verification request, as it appears on the bank account proof. In the rare case that your verification request gets rejected, the reason for rejection will also appear on top of the verification page for your reference.

# Withdrawals
How do I withdraw money from my Consider11 account?
