Message on forum

I joined their site at the start of November and have had numerous issues with withdrawing winnings from my account.

My latest withdrawal of 1782.93 EUR has been pending for 4 days!!

I’ve contacted customer support each day only to receive the generic “please be patient” response. This isn’t acceptable as their own T&C’s state the withdrawal process takes up to 24 hours to complete.

Well this is a total lie!!!

My original withdrawal was indeed cancelled at 5:02am on December 6th, I have an email from your company backing that up.

I have since made a new withdrawal of €2,007 through my ewallet which according to your site rules is a faster process, that withdrawal is now pending with over 48hrs.

Withdrawal is stuck

I found a high rating of 20bets on AskGamblers.

So I first deposited USDT on 25th May, 2026. Then played some cricket bets. Then I requested my first withdrawal.

On that day, I got an email stating that the withdrawal had been cancelled and that I needed to upload documents.

Then I uploaded documents.

After the documents got verified, I again requested a withdrawal on 29th May. Since then, my withdrawal is pending.

I contacted live support several times. They are telling same words that the withdrawal request is in the live queue for review, and upon completion of all verifications, the status of payout will be updated accordingly.

This is really frustrating.

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.

220 USDT deposit missing

I deposited 220 USDT through the Tron network, but it's been 7 days and the money still hasn't appeared in my account. The person who answers the chat always says the same thing, looks like a bot. Everyday I enter the page and ask for my deposit, and they keep saying the same thing, that they're reviewing the deposit with it's provider payment, but it's all fake, because the Tron hash transaction is correct.

Refused to pay

I opened my account in 2021 (Went through an egregious Verification process). Deposited and withdrew numerous times throughout the years. I recently won 15000 euros and tried to withdrawal. That's when the headache began. Ive submitted every document required (drivers license, proof of residence, bank statement, and selfies.) I was denied my withdrawal over and over. Finally I received an email saying all my funds were being confiscated because I committed fraud. No fraud was committed. 20bet won't give any reasoning. they just simple stole my money without any excuse.

Two withdrawals delayed

I made a withdrawal on Friday, 28/11, and received my winnings on Monday, 1/12.

On Sunday, 30/11, I made two additional withdrawals. These relate to the following Bet IDs:

#86244253

#86253921

It is now Tuesday, 9/12, and I still have not received my winnings. I am aware that withdrawals typically take 1–5 business days, but I am very convinced that the payments were not sent on Sunday.

All my previous withdrawals were smaller amounts, and they always took 2 bank days. But these two withdrawals are larger amounts, although still only between €800–1,500.

They have sent me a payment confirmation stating that the transfers were sent on December 1st, but that can’t be correct, because I would have received the withdrawals by now.

Throughout the whole process, there have been strange excuses and reasons for why my withdrawals should be delayed. I’ve been messaging customer service every day since the 3rd banking day because I could sense that something was off.

I am verified and have confirmed my account, so everything should be in order.

I have attached the payment confirmation

I deposited €100, rolled over the bonus, won over €900 in total, and still ended up with just €100

I made a €100 deposit to 20bet to claim their 100% first deposit sports bonus. First of all, none of their affiliates mentioned that the maximum amount you can win from the bonus is €100. First sign of a scam.

I then rolled over the bonus while following all the rules. The biggest surprise came after completion: I ended up with over €900 in my account, but the balance showed only €100—not even the supposed maximum €100 win was included. I asked support about it, and they replied:

“Please be informed that you have already used the deposit for bets, and now you receive winnings from the bonus wager on your balance.”

So I deposited €100, rolled over the bonus, won over €900 in total, and still ended up with just €100? That doesn’t sound legit to me.

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.

Account closed and deposits held back

I played quite a lot on 20bet . First I lost, deposited more, then I Won. So I had my deposit balance + winnings in the account.

Then after verifying account, sending all they need, I got message about that my account was closed, due to fraud. I have tried to ask how I can have been doing fraud, with what I have sent and what they have, but they dont answer me about that. I have not played in any fixed matches or so.

I have reviewed their Terms and Conditions but still do not understand what led to this decision.

I would appreciate any guidance or support in resolving this issue. And most important for me, after reading their terms I know I have rights to get back my deposits on my account. They have only sent my last deposit, that was a low % of my total deposits.

INR 1900 INR Deposit Missing

Witholding funds and abusive attitude

My account was limited to 0 betting, therefore I decided to withdraw my funds back to my Skrill account on july 7th 2025, however both my original deposits and profits are being held hostage without any valid reason by 20Bet.

On july 9th they cancelled my request and proceeded to ask me for a selfie holding my ID which I promptly uploaded and was approved. Still, they refused to process my payment for the second time, all I got was an email demanding 3 more documents to be uploaded: a Skrill statement with all the deposits I made to their sportsbook since january, another selfie with a code and ID and a second proof of address. All this can be verified in the attached screenshots.

This is a repetitive pattern: every time there's a withdrawal request they simply reject it in advance to keep asking for more documents to be uploaded. In my case the information I sent was approved in vane simply because they systematically refuse to process the payment. I did my part, but they obviously didn't. Their only defense it's to keep using their T&C to justify their actions.

Once again I requested a withdrawal (for the third time) on July 17th, which they also rejected and another one (4th attempt) on July 19th which is in "pending" status. This is the complete list of documents I already provided:

1-Passport
2-Utility bill as proof of address
3-Proof of deposit
4-Picture of debit card (front/back)
5-ID (front/back)
6-Selfie with a code written in a paper
7-Screenshot of Skrill personal account details
8-Selfie with ID
9-Selfie with code and ID
10-Another utility bill as a second proof of address
11-Skill statement of deposits made to 20Bet (2 pages)
12-Bank statement with all Skrill transactions in PDF (may-june ’25)

However, they still refuse to process my payment. Even worse: they're now also demanding another "skrill statement for the period from May up to and June with all ongoing transactions visible in PDF format" when their own site doesn't even support the PDF format.

All this without giving me any valid explanation about why exactly I'm being requested to provide all these details. This is sensitive information which could be possibly being used in a fraudulent way by this operator. After so many attempts to work this out, I think I reached a frustrating dead end with this abusive company and their useless copy/paste "costumer service department".
