Help with Bovada

**SharpyUSA** · 12-27-21, 04:30 PM

Bovada is by FAR the worst SPORTSBOOK in this industry. They are a “pretty” website, and nothing more. Their management is pathetic and stupid, and they take 48 hours to “review” a payout, and another 72 hours to send the payment. No reputable books do this, except for these scumbags.

The best option for you is to go to a better and honest book like wagerweb or bookmaker. No BS, fast payouts, and non of those drama.

Wagerweb pays without hassle.

More should play there.

Fully agree.

Wagerweb is by far THE best book in this industry. Their CS and management team is like dealing with family. Larry Zuco literally calls every year to wish merry Christmas and gives free plays. There’s been times where I haven’t wagered for 6 months at a time and they still call and give freeplays. They are seriously great people to deal with and stress free.

Hi guys,

Recently had a issue with a P2P transfer where the other party did not pay. Contacted bovada mod on their community forum to see what they could do and they ended suspending my account?? I’ve emailed them and all they say is that I broke a Best Practice guideline but the other party that didn’t pay still had access??

I’m not actually sure who can help me. Just wanted to lowkey vent but if someone had some advice, it’ll be much appreciated!

Merry Christmas!

I'm a "Hall of Fame" trader there at the community forum. A few weeks ago I bought $200 via PP and seller went ghost. He was "legend" trader but he still did it to 2 or 3 other posters w/in 1 hour. Bovada's "Best Practice" is that if seller didn't have a thread of selling the amount, then check w/ mods to see if seller has the funds to do the player transfer. We didn't check and seller didn't have a thread so it was against their "Best Practice." However, that was the first time I got scammed and Bovada credited me with the $200. I believe the other posters got their funds, too. I'm saying this to show that sometimes posters run afoul to BP, but still get help.

However, you were vague in exactly what you did that violated BP. One of the most common violation is trading outside the forum (i.e., making the deal without posting it and/or discussion in the forum from start to finish). If you did that, then there is nothing mods will do. The reason is that it happened multiple times and mods have posted warnings about it a few times. If it was something else, then please elaborate what's the violation as I might be able to help. Btw, you do remember the username? I want to make sure to avoid that person.

Requested a payout by interac-online at midnight last night, received by 7 A.M. this morning. I have taken at least 40 payouts from Bovada, and have never waited 48 hours for a payout.

Totally agree Wagerweb pays without hassle. However, since I'm limited to $5 a game there, payout speed is irrelevant to me. Prefer a book that takes at least $10 bets. LOl.

YES. I'm in WA by Seattle and they take my business. Buying points is more expensive I noticed. Buy up to 5 points.
