    Still waiting 2 months in for Bovada payout

    Is anyone else not getting paid by Bovada? They keep trying to put money back into my account after I make a withdrawal. They want me to bet and lose it. They pay out smaller amounts, but anything over a grand they don't pay out. Thoughts? I've been waiting 2 months and keep making up excuses.

    Makes me want to take a dump in the community swimming pool and then blame it on Obama.

    I've talked to them 5 times on the phone. There has been a different excuse each time. They now say 10-15 more business days. One excuse was there was a glitch in their system. They keep saying everything is fine, will get it by end of the week.

    Funny that we never hear about problems with deposits. Only withdrawals.

    why not just withdraw a smaller amount like 1G and see what happens. bovada is a pretty bad book. they started limiting my live betting when I started making a killing on live bets.

    Yeah, well I would have done that. Not a lot I can do now. I guess I could ask them to just put it back in my account and then wait a few months and slowly take it out. What a crock of shit, though. And exactly, they take the money so fast and easy, but you want a big payout and they just give you hell. I've now heard a lot of other stories like this after asking around. Be careful everyone.

    That's suprising, Bovada is a bigger book no?

    I think as long as you take out small amounts and don't raise eye brows, you're fine. If you start winning and take out more than a grand, they're gonna make it hard on you. At least that's been my experience. And I have found I'm not alone.

    Bovada is an absolute shit book, i have been preaching this for awhile. Used them
    For a long time, took alot of money from
    Them and they did everything in their power to stop it or make it harder. When asked why they were limiting my bets they said they are a 'recreational' sportsbook. Not sure what thats supposed to mean. I advise you go get a real offshore book like 5dimes or heritage. Havent had any problems since. Only reason why i posted in here was bc a close friend of mine called me the other day bitching about the problem. Hope you get it sorted out and don't do business with then anymore

    I kept getting the run around not too long ago. First they said it was due to high withdrawal volumes because of the Super Bowl. The they said it was because of the Chinese New Year, no joke.

    The most recent time I had my money in 5 days. So who knows. I see they aren't allowing any **** Fast Funds withdrawals because of 'high volume'. Which is a joke because the other 2 options they charge $50 for.

    Same thing happened to me.

    It took me like 1.5 months to get the payout but they did eventually come through. Everytime they e-mailed me they gave me a generic run around response. I think they were behind and also had problems with one of their processors.

    Check out this thread: http://www.sportsbookreview.com/foru...a-payouts.html

    When I e-mailed them after 15 business days they replied with a generic response that the time frame "was just an estimate", then I waited 10 more days and e-mailed back and they just said "be patient".

    To their credit, they did come through.

    Yeah, I dunno, either way, 2 months is pathetic for a payout. It's actually more like 2 months and a couple weeks now. I don't find that acceptable.

    Acceptable ? LOL are you kidding me You should have the money in a week I don't care how big the payout is I'd be asking what they are going to give you in compensation Take the money and play elsewhere I'd never do business there after reading this story

    Probably ID doc issues. Bovada always pays but all they do is copy lines from other books after early betting movements and then add 5 cents to chalk or take 5 off dogs. It's funny how cheap and scared they are. I use them sometimes because I like the app interface and have payout history with them.

    It has nothing to do with ID doc. issues.

    They were just really behind.

    The the 15 day time frame is "business days" means that you could have to wait at a minimum over 3 weeks. I had to wait almost two months.

    Yeah, I'm done with Bovada. And it had nothing to do with ID issues. I have gotten smaller payouts before. Anyway, Bovada sucks balls and I'm done bitching about it now. Good luck, guys

    Lol that's total horseshit. I get payouts in 2-4 business days with bet365. You need to find a new book buddy. Anything longer than 1 week is unacceptable, I can send money globally via a wire to any country and it will get there in less than a week.

    Bovada is a scam I have been waiting since May 7th 2016 for my money. Have called at least 10 times and emailed 15 plus.

    I keep getting run around they owe me 2k and I will fight to the bitter end to get it.

    So funny their are zero problems getting money to them but it's a major war to get paid.

    When this war is over I wouldn't deposit one cent in my account which I will close asap.

    Trust me I know of two others personally who are getting same run around with payouts, it's a scam bovada is truly a scam.

    Last payout took like 1.5 months.
