Don't trust BOVADA

[RyleeCashflow]

I've been a loyal customer of Bovada since I first started handicapping in college back in 2011 and no problems until now...having over 3k in my account, i hit an insane prop / parlay bet 2 days which paid out more than I've ever had in my entire account in my 5 years.

I try logging into today and get a notification that my account has been locked due to a "fraud" transaction dating back to November 2nd! I called just now and the gentleman on the line told me that I would have to contact my bank to resolve this issue and when I asked several questions regarding why my account was locked, he kept repeating for me to contact my bank and until than they'll keep my account on hold.

I look over my transactions and even contacted my bank about this issue and everything cleared out. I have no idea whats going on and when I asked to speak to their supervisor or higher-ups, they avoided the entire conversation and told me my fund would be transferred to a third party account!

Now I know Bovada is on the rise and many people have never encountered any problems with Bovada but that was also my case till NOW! I will be moving on maybe going to my brother about this who's a lawyer.

Please Please avoid this website! They are very shady as far as i'm concerned.

Not trying to garner attention or any replies, just getting the word out fellas. I'll be moving onto 5dmines.

Now this worries me

4 months ago a thread exited which bashed BOVADA for the same reason, and I've actually went out of my way to defend them. Never again. I feel retarded defending them now.

And they operate from the Philippines ???? I asked him again 20 minutes later how i can contact their supervisor and he nervously told me the main financial department is located in Australia yet he was in the Philippines. I knew then my money was going down the toilet. I'll be making another call very soon.

Glad I switched to BetOnline before Bovada screwed me over.

Don't take this as me flaunting but money isn't a big concern in my world, but this is about PRINCIPLE. Just don't want to see anyone else being a victim to their incompetent ways. I will be posting this all over including on Reddit where I have a group of people that I share my picks and interact with.

btw how is betonline compared to 5dimes? I'm looking into switching, Thanks!

Doesn't Bovada do that double lines shiiiiii....... you know, where if you seem any good at handicapping, they start giving you shittier lines? I wonder how many places do that? That alone makes a book not worthy in my opinion.

If only I've come across your opinion years ago! Had a buddy of mine who dropped Bovada and I nearly convinced her to give them another try. They were so responsive and willing to help before I started wagering larger amounts.

People who know they are wrong prefer to start threads "just wanting to warn everyone" rather than put in a complaint and actually try to fix a problem.

This seems quite straight forward. Guy is accused of fraud and hasn't been able to fix it with his bank. Like you or me or any other bona fide person could.

Do you imagine if this happened to you just coming to a forum to "warn people"?

Or would you expect the problem could be fixed as you know you have not done any sort of fraud?


Here is the sportsbook complaint form if I am wrong and the OP does want help from SBR http://www.sportsbookreview.com/sportsbook-complaint/

Tried to fix the issue without any resolution before I started this thread. Your reply is biased but hey I get it as you probably encountered MANY threads "just wanting to warn everyone. I did resolve this issue with my bank, but not Bovada as i stated above. Thanks for the link buddy!

After this weeks wager I will withdraw all my funds

I never used 5dimes so couldn't tell you the difference but I can tell you BetOnline is way better than Bovada. Bovada has high juice too.

Banks will not even deal with gambling issues because they are illegal. Finding your story hard to believe

[RyleeCashflow]

Bovada files the transaction through a third party "ecardhub.com" which shows up just as that on the bank statements. Not looking for anyone to believe me, moved onto BetOnline to scratch that gambling itch, let's keep winning
