My bank gives me access to money before a check actually clears, so I just wait a while to make sure the check has actually cleared before I use that money. I hope your bank just looked at the amount and decided that it would be more prudent to wait till it actually cleared to give you access to your money. It may not mean that your check is going to bounce.

thats exactly what im hoping, it makes wonder though since the manager was kind of rude about it

I'm kind of doubting it bounced only because I haven't heard of anyone else say their check bounced. The chances of yours bouncing and no one else's is probably zero.

I don't think they usually send a tracking number by email, but rather it should be in "your messages" on their
site. A good way to have you check in every day you're waiting for a payout.

Yeah, Bovada isn't good about sending out your tracking # ahead of time. My last check, I received my check before I got my tracking #, and my first 2 checks before that, I got my tracking #'s like 1 or 2 days before the check arrived.

Honeybadger · 06-22-12, 06:02 PM

So my final payout from Bovada was approved 5/20. Just for giggles, thought I would call them yesterday for any updates. "Sorry - no tracking, no ETA...." and nothing in my inbox. Well the courier package showed up today with my FINAL payment from Bovada. I'm out !!!

daneblazer · 06-23-12, 08:37 AM

Fwiw, Bodog was never on spot with giving out tracking numbers. There were numerous times I'd receive my payment before the tracking number was emailed. Not that I'm complaining...

frezera76 · 06-23-12, 01:10 PM

still waiting an approved payout may 13th

I won't say that I'm out for good, but I'm waiting until they get caught up with payouts before I go back in. I don't know if closing accounts in several states created an overload of payouts that the system couldn't handle, but since Bovada didn't give what I feel is an adequate explanation of why there seemed to be a period of time when payouts stopped, I fear it could have been a cash flow issue. Only time will tell if Bovada is sound.

If any of you continue to play there you are fools.... TOO MANY books out right now that shit on Bovada to be stuck with this horseshit....

I agree with this if all you do is bet sports.

Bovada Payouts

FYI regarding Bovada payouts
Just received my payout[s] from Bovada
Requested May 6th and 13th....came as one check [1150 total]
Never received tracking number...
Now I just hope check is good!

johnnyu · 06-25-12, 10:49 AM

Forgot to mention......letter said check cannot be cashed, only deposited.

LVHerbie · 06-25-12, 11:54 AM

I got my first (from May 7th) of two due payments today...

Without mentioning the name of the bank, can you tell what country the bank is located in? The check I got last week was from a bank in Canada. Some others have said the checks they received were from Singapore.

I may sound like dick, but wtf difference does it make? Checks either come from the far east or up north.

One difference is that if it's from Singapore, you may not know if it's going to bounce for up to two months.

johnnyu · 06-25-12, 12:38 PM

Singapore.....I Googled the bank and it appears to be a pretty big/strong bank in far east.
Fingers crossed it won't take long to clear.

Mine was from a big bank in Canada, one I actually have an account with. I live in Maine, but I'm from Canada. I've gotten checks from Singapore, and they have always cleared. My local bank always just gives me credit for checks even before they clear, so I never know when the actual clearing date is. I guess I could ask, but I try not to bring too much attention to these kind of checks. From what I understand, foreign checks must be physically presented to the paying bank, not electronically transmitted like checks within the United States are. That can add a lot of time. If you need to use the money quickly, I would recommend calling the bank to see if the check you deposited has really cleared, just to save the problems you could have if it did not clear.

IDK where you get this information, but just about everyone reports that these checks clear faster than the Canadian checks and you don't have one of these checks so your level of concern for this particular poster seems odd.

I wasn't aware that this information was on a need to know basis, lol. I'm just trying to get a better idea of what's behind the slow pay that we've been experiencing, sorry if my questions seem odd to you. What I'm concerned about is that if the slow play was from a cash flow issue and not an overload from more than usual requests for payouts, I need to change from Bovada to another site.

Halstad · 06-25-12, 01:21 PM

If all you do is bet sports I have no idea why you wouldn't switch books.

flight324 · 06-25-12, 03:19 PM

I did none of the above and got a check from May 7th today as well so I doubt all the above (other then getting you stringed along) actually did much... My guess your name just finally came up in the cue...

I sent a couple emails about a payout from May 4, got my check last week. Looks to me like Bovada's just working down the list of payouts pending, and that sending emails does nothing to speed up the process.

JR84K · 06-26-12, 02:15 PM

I Agree

I would have to agree, I dont belive my emails and my phone calls and official complaint helped speed up my payout at all...But I felt like I was doing something to attempt to get my money. lol. Anyway this was my first time at bovada and was skeptical of a payout at all. NOW I have recieved a payout and check cleared in One business day through the Best Outing Adventure. Just felt I had to post for all the negatives out here.

parkerdanny16 · 06-26-12, 04:17 PM

my 3k check from singapore was deposited on 6/20, the manager said it required further investigating and she would contact me this week, but i have yet to hear from her.

I'm sure you'll hear positive news from her soon. I havn't seen any posts here or on other forums about Bovada checks bouncing from this recent round of payouts. I think the long clearing times I read about are for small banks in small countries. A large bank in a financial centre like Singapore should be much quicker.

Beeto · 06-26-12, 05:56 PM

New to this site. Was looking for a sportsbook and I found this site.
Have my Bovada story to share. Pretty much same story with me.

Requested a payout from Bovada on April 9th.
Got a message that it was approved on April 11th.

Got my $ on June 4th through DHL.
I was told normal waiting time for the method of my deposits was 15 days.
I deposit through CC. Their business days are Mon-Fri.

My check cleared with no problems. It was for a very small amount $500.
I did receive a bonus from them for the waiting time.

$125 was the free bonus I got for waiting that long.
I almost forgot. It was mentioned that the check be deposited through ATM
and not try and cash it. Alos never to mention it came from gaiming.

Bovada tells you to deposit it in an ATM. Why would you go into the bank? In fact why do people ever go into the bank?

Yes, Bovada tells us to deposit the checks via ATM, however the last check they sent me was rejected by my bank's ATM, twice.
That's why I went into the bank. When I went inside to deposit it, nothing was said, they just took it for deposit.
