Skrill withdrawal is pending and delayed over 35 hours


I am a fully verified player at 20bet (my account verification was completed and approved before making any transaction).

On 13/05/2026 at 21:33:30, I placed a withdrawal request of 200 EUR via Skrill [22bet]. A few hours later, on 14/05/2026 at 01:49:09, I requested a second withdrawal of my remaining balance of 20 EUR.

The official 24-hour processing time that 20bet guarantees for e-wallets in their terms and conditions has already expired. My money is still kept as "Pending" in my transaction history. When I contacted live chat, they refused to process it and gave me automated excuses about "internal security reviews" just to delay my payment and force me to reverse the withdrawal.

I have already submitted full proof of my Skrill account ownership during my verification process, which was accepted. There is no legitimate reason for this delay. Please help me get my funds.

Voided bet after the match is played
On August 8, 2025, I placed a bet on the 20Bet website on a Finnish U20 football league (P20 Ykkönen) match: U20 Sapa vs. U20 Kontu Ita-Helsinki.

I bet on the 1x2 market, picking option 2, meaning a win for U20 Kontu Ita-Helsinki, with odds of 6.00. I placed multiple bets of €10–€50 each, totaling €500. The match ended 0–4 in favor of U20 Kontu Ita-Helsinki, so my bets won. The bookmaker initially paid the winnings into my account, bringing my balance to €3,000.
The next day, when I checked my account, my balance was only €500, and my bets on that match had been voided. I asked in their live chat why my stake had been refunded, and most likely a bot replied that my stake had been refunded because the match result had been known in advance. I responded that I had placed my bets a day before the match started, so I could not have known the final result. They only replied that the team had made a decision and it could not be changed.

On August 10, 2025, I also sent an email to [email protected] about the matter, but I have not received a reply. Now I am wondering whether it can really be the case that a bookmaker can freeroll my €500 stake by declaring after my winning bets that the match result was fixed, without providing any proof of that. In that case, a bettor would have no chance of winning if the bookmaker refunds the stake from winning bets. Would my stake have been refunded if I had lost the bet—if Sapa U20 had won? I doubt it.
A bookmaker should void bets before the match starts if they intend to do so, not after the match when result is known. Of course, I have no information that the match was fixed, and there has been no news or information anywhere in the media or on the internet suggesting it was, so this seems to be a completely made-up explanation. I placed the bet purely on a hunch, and now I feel cheated. Therefore, I want 20Bet to pay my full winnings, as they rightfully should in this case.
