GC Responsible Gambling Index header shows a placeholder tier (GC page body states the RGI is not yet finalised). LeoVegas is licensed by the MGA and the UK Gambling Commission and runs a full responsible gambling toolkit through LeoSafePlay, so a Poor placeholder is clearly inconsistent. Please reconcile and confirm the official tier before publishing.

E-wallet withdrawals take 1 to 3 business days after a 48 hour processing window.
