    Bovada is a scam
    Edit by SBR: Bovada management has said the poster's cheque was sent on June 21 and is expected to be received within the 10-15 business day time-frame. The reason his 3 payouts were consolidated into one was it would have taken longer for the payout to be received.

    Also, the normal time-frame is 7-10 business days but had to be updated due to a backlog after the card method was delayed. Bovada expects the regular payout time-frame to be restored soon, and has added bitcoin for faster processing.

    _______________


    Zero problems getting deposits in, but since May 7, 2016 I've been waiting for the 2000 they owe me.

    Constant excuses about technical problems, processing times etc. Cetera just complete lies over and over. I will fight to the bitter end to get my money trust me on that.

    they are complete scam, and should be arrested.

    If you think it's not true wait till you request
    a deposit.

      Hi Rac Rac, Bovada is not a scam. If this was a card based option, there have been some industry wide delays, partially why the sportsbook introduced bitcoin, to avoid these types of unfortunate hiccups. Please submit a complaint if you'd like us to have a manager review where your payout request stands.

        You have the audacity to doubt me, what I said was true initially
        I was waiting for **** fast pay after I was told that wasn't going to happen
        I asked for a check which I've been waiting for over a month now.

          And btw I just submitted a complaint. Bovada had zero problems taking many thousands instantly
          off me over a long 7 years. I paid when I lost, now I get their bs of holding my money hostage.

            And the simple fact they just lie all the time anymore makes me irate
            15 business days to write check comes out to 21 days min before you
            get lied to again.

            and btw bovada won't discuss my account with anyone but me
            so why did I even file a complaint here. Just got email from sbr
            To provide amount owed and dates? Bovada has all that info, and
            why would they discuss that with sbr ?

              Hi Rac Rac,

              The background info helps the analyst understand how to properly communicate your issue with management. By filing a complaint, you are electronically consenting SBR to contact the sportsbook on your behalf to discuss your complaint.

                  SBR does their best to help us out on issues like this.

                  A book didn't want to pay me. They gave me the run around... etc.

                  SBR got them to pay... all of it. It was low 5 figures.

                  Just give them time to work on it.

                        you have come to the right place. it is possible you will need some patience. i know you have waited too long but there may be a reason. this is the fastest way to get it straightened out. but it usually is not fast enough when you are going through it.

                          I remember some other guy around a week or two ago complaining about the same thing. Have you tried getting a Bitcoin withdrawal? I think the other guy had his problem resolved.

                            Bitcoin no ty k. Bovada takes your money hostage plain and simple.

                            just tired of their lies, all I can do for today.

                                  I just received a cash out from Bovada for $1050. It took a little time but I did get it. They are not a scam.

                                                            take your complaint to the us gubment. it's not bovada's fault for our gubment to go after the processors.

                                                            do you know what uigea is? if not, look into it and why your money is taking so long for you to get.

                                                            keep it up and you'll get banned. this site doesn't like posters talking bad about books.

                                                            also, don't play there anymore. my suggestion is to open an account at heritage sports. gl

                                                              A book didn't want to pay me. They gave me the run around... etc.

                                                              SBR got them to pay... all of it. It was low 5 figures.

                                                              Just give them time to work on it.
                                                              Money, if you don't mind me asking what book tried to stiff you before? If you don't want to discuss it's all good I understand. Personally I've only been stiffed by FullTilt Poker and Bodog. This was several years ago, last decade when the feds seized their websites with that eagle logo and all that bs that went down. The only thing I know for certain is that Bookmaker and 5Dimes always pay. I've never known anyone or heard of anybody getting stiffed by those two books. I don't think I'll ever use another offshore book besides those two going forward. Possibly Heritage cause I hear a lot of good things from people on here but nobody else but those three. It's not worth the risk, even for better lines or quicker payouts. I'd rather be guaranteed the money is coming and wait an extra day or two to get it, then roll the dice and wonder if it's ever coming.

                                                                  Can you find a local or 2 ? If you dont have A local its pretty easy to find a couple who will pay cash fast when you win.

                                                                  The offshore industry its just not a good idea. Ur sending ur cash to strangers in a different country. Ur just hoping they pay.

                                                                  Its not just Bovada its an industry wide problem. Now even 5 dimes is slow pay. They were supposedly the greatest book ever.

                                                                  I have been around a long long time and i tell you they come and go. The A rated books have folded and fukked the players more times than i can even remember.

                                                                  Acesgold, dalton wagner (screwed me out of $1425 with vwager), betlaspalmas, wtc. I cant even remember them all. The A books that went under and i had 0 balance I dont even remember the names. But there have been a lot. Believe me.

                                                                  Why send money to a guy you never met in a country you probably never been to when you can bet with the local bookie. I mean help out ur community man. Really you dont need all those exotic bets on stupid shit or an online casino to chase losses at 4 am when you should be beating off to forget about your troubles.

                                                                  Im just saying. Today its bovada tommorow its who knows. Your local will always have ur cash ready no excuses no BS because he has his bosses above him. They will make sure he has ur money. Funny my local is an old, drunken, not very bright fuk but he dont give me excuses when i win. No he gives me my money.
