    Bodog questions

    Hi, I joined bodog in october after being reffered to them by my best friend. I played for 2 weeks and all was good and was enjoying the site. Then that same friend came over and we watched the colts vs titans game. We placed a couple bets but not on the same lines and nowhere near trying to get past limits (Were both rec players). The next day i get the verification msg. So i send everything in. I get verified but still couldnt get back on so i called and they told me im not allowed back on untill they verify my friend and come to their conclusion.Have i broken the rules? Why do they encourage bringing friends to the site with refferals, but then my friends cant come over and bet from my house? Wtf is that. Has this happened to anyone else? Been suspended since october 18th, my friend has sent everything in and has been with bodog for years already.

    Did you both make bets from the same IP address?

    I'm not sure what Bodog's thinking is. But you're a new player with them and then all of a sudden multiple bets come in from the same IP address. They might think it's sketchy. I have no idea. I just know from reading this forum that your situation has caused problems for other people. Hope it works out for you.

    I meant that this problem has come up before. Two accounts using the same IP address. Sportsbook freaks out thinking there's come kind of collusion. It will probably work out, but you might have to jump through a few hoops.

    The only bet i placed that game was 500 on an alternative under spread. My friend bet 150 on colts plus 7.5

    Lame you should change books. Most books wouldn't care about those size bets. Bodog is a basic book. They were my first book 10 years ago I won 20k off them and it took over 6 months to get paid so I left

    Bodog closed my account and my friends account a few years ago because he made a halftime wager from my computer, they said I must have multiple accounts and robbed us both, Bodog sucks

    I hope you get this straightened out simply for the fact that you have an awesome handle.

    Tough call

    We don’t know if you’re up to something hopefully you’re not and everything will get settled
