Bovada 9.5k withdrawal 8 day still review - How does BTC price effect things?

[Lord_Mar7]

Lord Mar, again, sorry you are going thru this. I would be going scorched earth by now if it were me.

Hopfully you are paid soon, and you'd be smart to find a better sportsbook to play at. I recommend Bookmaker, Heritage, 5dimes... forget bovada

Thanks Droopy, I'll have to check into it.

[Lord_Mar7]

Bitcoin has plummeted nearly $1500 since I put in my withdrawal on 10/31. I guess that's the silver lining here, even though I plan on cashing this one out, and will play the bitcoin market on my next withdrawal (because I have several G left) and BTC should plummet some more.

Let's get a move on Bovada.

what a joke. how are these books still top rated!??!?!?!?!? one instance of this should instantly get a full drop in rating. to me, they immediately get blacklisted, the same if i were to steal from a book or screw with them i'd be immediately blacklisted.

there needs to be some accountability!!!! come on SBR! don't be in bed with the criminals by taking their $ for better ratings!

Payment received - thanks guys.

Dude. Dial it down.

Bovada aren't criminals nor do they cheat players. And if you think the best way to run a rating and complaints resolution service is to call books criminals and downgrade ratings immediately when any problem comes up... well there is a good reason you aren't doing it, as you would be a total failure acting that way.

Phew. Finally.

Great to hear. Did they give you any clues about why it took so long?

No reason given other than original stance (delay in payouts).

I really wouldn't mind waiting 3 weeks if it was indicated ahead of time (instead of 48 hours). The volatility of bitcoin throws a wrench into that, though.

Hopefully it doesn't take as long next time, because I'm going to withdraw another 5+k BTC here in a few weeks. If the price of BTC skyrockets during a lengthy wait instead of dips (like it did the past 3 weeks) I will not be as satisfied.

You're definitely patient/reasonable to a fault!

that one happens in the 48 hours.

finally! Thank heavens.
Did you get the amount you requested or the amount that was the btc exchange after 3 weeks?

Exact amount requested (actually, it was about $9 less). Once they sent it (yesterday) it was immediately received to my supplied wallet. Then, I moved it to coinbase pro which took about 30 minutes to appear. Sat on it for just about 1 hour and managed to end up with about $12 more than the original withdrawal amount even after fees. Should hit bank account Tuesday.

Looks like they just waited until BTC price dropped until releasing (so be it).

Will update you. 2nd BTC withdrawal initiated on 12/11.

Re-think this theory. Ask yourself why would they want to do that ? If anything, they want to send out at high of a price as possible so they are sending less BTC.

You would think...but my last transaction took 21 days (and there are guys saying they've got max btc this month in 48 hrs...which I don't believe) and they processed it once the price of BTC dropped over 1500$.

[DroopyDog]

There's definitely a reason for the delay, mostly just plain stalling or other inexcusable reasons, but I cant imagine hoping btc price would drop is one one of em

Well, I stand corrected. Less than 48 hours on this 2nd withdrawal.

Well done!

Big Money! Glad you got it.

Bitcoin beats those Moneypaks and gift cards I used to use back in the day

Like seriously, what takes two weeks to get this guy some help? I bet it didnt take two weeks for you to respond to their sponsor inquires



Well, SBR doesn't owe me anything. I am planning to go Pro, ideally, if this gets resolved.

Bovada DOES owe me.


Means this man has zero credibility

Huh?

Bovada:

1st payout max btc withdrawal - 21 days (popular web wallet/exchange, processed when BTC went from over 9k to closer to 7k).
2nd payout slightly less withdrawal - 2 days (offline cold storage)


*Both payouts were 3 weeks apart. Both payouts hit my wallets less than 30 minutes after they initiated the payment.

I may not like 3 weeks for my 1st payout, but everyone has said they take longer for first withdrawals. Legit site, I'm happy now. Here's to the future!

I’m glad you got your money. I switched to btc recently for deposits because it’s become the norm for many players and it’s supposedly easier to cashout. But if you’re dealing with a dirty book it doesn’t matter which currency you’re using. And while I’m pleased you got your money, 21 days is still a ridiculously long time to wait.
