    And now after the fiasco with the website I finally got thru & requested a bitcoin withdrawal.
    BAD NEWS was I got email from them saying my account needed "updated" verification!!!! I got 3 checks via courier way back about a year ago but since have deposited & withdrawn funds via bitcoin. I'm hoping it's not a stall tactic but it is very unusual after the past 24 hours.
    I will be posting updates as I got what was a generic reply to my email when I sent the pics of the docs saying they had received docs & would verify writhing 24-48 hours and notify me if the pics were able to be verified..........I wonder why it's fine to constantly deposit with these books but when you want a payout you're required to jump thru hoops

    They still haven’t graded my winning wager form yesterday. It’s been like a 28 hours. Lol

    If it’s not graded tomorrow I’m done. Too many other options.

    It won't post automatically, you have to claim it. Go to your account and hit rewards. Scroll down to active bonus offers and it should be there.

    I hope Bovada isn't fooling around.....with all the states in USA getting things moving towards having brick & mortar sportsbooks I'm wondering how it will affect players at Bovada. I see Virginia is on the move to make sports betting legal and may have it in next year or two. Will Bovada close the accounts of players in the "new" legal states because they already don't allow players from Nevada, Delaware, NJ........see my point?

    I'm only 1 state south of Va and actually 10 minute drive from there so I can only hope Virginia gets it legal!!!

    I understand this. I didn't get the offer so there's nothing to claim. Not everyone received it apparently. I'm not the only one if you read other forums.

    I was doing big action with them that day.

    It probably depends on the amount of money you were wagering leading up to the outage.

    My Withdrawal is still looking good. I'll update if I get any static.

    I wouldn't worry too much about the states being legal. From what I understand the people running those books are real Bone Heads and basically just mirroring lines from offshore anyways.

    Also banning people who win, which is the dumbest thing you could ever do.

    Not to mention 1099 people. It's a real shitshow you're still better off going offshore.

    Bricky......I have noticed in the Bovada "community" forum there are tons of people complaining about bitcoin deposits & withdrawals. Some say they have waited 5+ days while acct was in review & still wait for the funds. I know bitcoin is the new fad and is super quick so why does Bovada take soooooooo long to review and/or pay? If other books are doing so in less than couple hours then why can't they? I really need to open an acct with a book that pays within 6 hours of request!! This sitting around waiting and waiting for Bovada to process payouts is very annoying.

    See nitrogen sports and fairlay.

    The reason they take a few days is because it's a Square book and by waiting three days to complete a withdrawal there's probably a high percentage of people who cancel their withdrawal request so they can wager again.

    It being a square book you can get good lines on dog's there

    Fairlay complete Bitcoin withdrawals in a matter of seconds.

    Nitrogen in a matter of hours.

    You won't get all the perks and bells and whistles though

    Fairlay was recently put on blast here by degen1 saying they stole over $100k.......not sure I feel comfortable there.
    does nitrogen allow USA players?
    I been with Bovada for couple years and have gotten couple checks by courier & shaved used exclusively bitcoin for past 6 months. I put in request last nite only to get an email saying my acct needs to be "verified"!!! WTF? Have the same phone and same address for past 20 years but now they need 2 verify my identity? I say B.S.

    6 of my last 8 bitcoin payouts at Bovada, spanning 5 months, have all been received within a few hours. Not sure what I'm doing right.

    You can remain anonymous if you want at nitrogen it's a Bitcoin exclusive book so they don't give a shit as long as you deposit the Bitcoin you're good to go.

    I would suggest creating a password for your account as they use cookies stored on your computer if you don't make a password.

    Bricky......it was all over SBR for couple months. Guy was told his acct was being held because of a 3rd party complaint if my memory is correct. He didn't know if it was the feds because he wasn't given too much info other than it was being held.
    I think eventually he got the $100k back but little kona and he were having very heated discussions here. Maybe 1 of the other guys here can post the link b/c I'm not sure I know how......remember I thought I was the last guy playing offshore to eventually start using bitcoin

    I think BTC is simple to use.

    Idk why everyone thinks it's so difficult.

    The problem is getting the BTC for a fair price.

    I got banned from all that stuff a while ago. I wouldn't be surprised if books stop offering that in the near future.

    Isn't CC way easier and more convenient?

    Bricky......I have been BLACKLISTED from both companies as well.....years ago!!! The western ##### said I got banned for allegedly gambling but yet I see NBA jerseys this year with the freaking ** on em!!! And since the govt cancelled the UNLAWFUL gambling act they had passed on that Black Friday years ago the announcers in all the pro sports constantly are mentioning the "favorite" "dog" etc, Brent Musberger is world known for his commentary during games related to point spreads.

    They still haven't graded my wager from Friday. I contacted them via chat yesterday and the person really couldn't help me. They just said it would be "escalated".

    I guess this is a wakeup call.

    My Withdrawal hit my BTC wallet 45 hours after requested with no BS.

    Top notch.

    Would you guys reach out again or just sit tight?

    I’m not really going to do anything else until this gets resolved.

    I guess there are a ton of other people having the same problem.

    They’re still commenting on Twitter. Lol

    I feel lucky it was only one wager. I’ll just cease to use the site at all until it gets resolved.

    They’ve been great historically but this is making me hesitate to use them again.

    Send in the sportsbook complaint form with your account and the wager details and we can ask a senior manager to make sure it is happening for you.
