    Bovada "Bonus"

    Did anyone else receive a bonus email from Bovada? I received an offer that says "Score $150 to bet on March Madness. Make a deposit today and we'll boost your bankroll up to $150."

    Well I was going to take the bonus, but I couldn't find the bonus in my bonus section. Connected to their live chat where the woman proceeds to tell me that if I make the deposit, the $150 will show up. Of course, that doesn't sound right and I wanted to make sure that was correct. So I called their customer service number where the lady then tells me that I have to wait 48 hours for the bonus because my account needs to be "reviewed."

    It's strange, there are NO terms in the email they sent. So I want to know if anyone else received this bonus. It sucks, but the lady was wanting me to make my deposit. And of course, the $150 would NOT have just shown up. Kind of shady practice. We'll see what happens in "48 hours" but I don't think I'll be depositing there. And I was JUST about to make a $5k deposit there. Oh well, any other suggestions out there?

    Yep I got it. Same thing. I logged in and there wasn't any bonuses available. Seems weird.

    I’m PISSED!! They tried to convince me that if I made a deposit, the bonus would be there, which is NOT true! The truth is, the deposit doesn’t even exist! When I called them out on it, they say that it was a miscommunication and that my account needs to be “reviewed” before I can access the bonus. Sooo, why send an offer in the first place? Is Bovada hurting? Makes me wonder

    So did you deposit and still they didn't honor the e-mail? Certainly most books are offering some type of March Madness Bonus due to the fact it was cancelled last year and people wager extensively on this tournament?

    Any reasonable explanation given by Bovada?

    Yep that's an easy way to tell. If it's in your bonuses you're good to go. If not then you aren't eligible.

    You always have to check anytime you get an email for a bonus because those are mass mailed and they do not always apply. At Bovada you just have to check what is available to you with your bonuses and if it is not there, you are not eligible.
