Account Temporarily Disabled and Lack of Communication


1 year ago

On December 25th, 2024, I had a balance of USD 2,710 in my Bovada account and made a withdrawal request of USD 94.68. The same day when trying to login to my account I received an error message that said "Your account has been disabled. Please, contact customer service". I also received an email informing me that my account had been "temporarily disabled and is currently under review." I was advised to submit documents to complete the investigation, and that I would receive an email with further instructions.

I promptly provided all required documentation and contacted Bovada’s customer support via chat on December 26th, where I was informed that I would be contacted within 24-48 hours. However, I received no follow-up communication.

On January 1st, I received an email stating that my withdrawal request of USD 94.68 had been declined, but no explanation was provided. I was simply told to reach out for further assistance if needed. I spoke to a Bovada chat agent who confirmed that all of the necessary documents had been sent and that I would receive further information via email. Since then, I have not received any emails or information from Bovada.

Since then, I have contacted Bovada's customer support almost daily, but the responses I’ve received have been vague and unhelpful. Agents repeatedly tell me to wait another 24-48 hours for a resolution but refuse to let me speak to a supervisor. Eventually, all chats are closed without any progress or explanation.

As of today, January 9th, 2025, my account is still under review with no clear timeline or reason for the delay. I am left in the dark, and no one has provided me with any real information or resolution.

I request that my account be re-enabled and that I be given the ability to withdraw my funds.

I expect immediate action to resolve this issue as it has far exceeded the promised 24-48 hour timeline.

Communication Record:

December 25th, 2024: Withdrawal request of USD 94.68.

December 26th, 2024: Account review notification and document submission.

January 1st, 2025: Withdrawal request declined with no explanation.

January 1st, 2025: Chat agent confirmed that all necessary documents were sent and that I would receive further information via email, but no follow-up has occurred.


January 9th, 2025: Ongoing communication with support, still no resolution.

1/21/25 - I am happy to say I have happily been granted full access to my account. Also, my withdrawal was accepted and successfully processed.

Although the process was not the most pleasant at times, I am pleased with the outcome.

Thank you Bovada for resolving this issue and I look forward to continue using your services. I hope that moving forward that services will be smooth for both parties.

Day 25: 1/20/2025 Hello, I wanted to provide an update on my account situation.

After being locked for 25 days, my account has finally been unlocked, and I have submitted my first withdrawal request.

However, it is still pending, and I will not consider this issue fully resolved until I receive and access my funds.

I remain hopeful that this will be resolved soon, but I’m continuing to monitor the situation closely and will update accordingly.

Day 24: Its been almost a month since I have been locked out of my account. I have submitted documentation several times upon Bovada’s request. It has now been 5 days since I most recently sent in documentation and I still have yet to hear a word from Bovada.

This is getting to be such an unbelievable and awful experience that is causing me a ton of distress.

How much longer is this going to take? Or is Bovada just giving me the run around and going to just take my account and my funds.

I want answers and it’s been almost a month with extreme efforts to communicate with Bovada and yet, still nothing.

My account is still under review
My account screenshot shows both my balance and the amount “Available to withdraw” as $7.1k.”

I submitted verification documentation to Bovada. Their Verification Team acknowledged receiving it and stated that my account is under review. However, their response provided no expected completion date, no specific explanation for the investigation, and no clarification about whether additional documents are required. They also stated that no further details would be available until the review is completed.

I understand that account verification may be necessary, and I am willing to cooperate with legitimate requests. My concern is the lack of a clear timeline and actionable information concerning the review and access to my funds.

I am requesting that Bovada:

1. Confirm whether my submitted documentation is sufficient and identify any outstanding requirements.
2. Provide a clear explanation of the unresolved issue, to the extent they can disclose it.
3. Provide an estimated completion date and complete the review promptly.
4. Confirm the status of my $7.1k balance and allow withdrawal once verification is successfully completed, or provide a specific written explanation for any restriction.

I have attached screenshots showing the balance listed as available to withdraw and Bovada’s acknowledgment of my verification documents.

If this matter is not resolved through AskGamblers’ mediation process, I intend to file a formal complaint with the Florida Attorney General’s Office, including the relevant account records, verification correspondence, and documentation of my $7.1k balance. Sorry in advance to anybody that uses them in Florida because I know by doing this people In Florida won’t be able to use bovada anymore

Account disabled and verification pending for over 6 days

My Bovada account was disabled on September 12th 2026

Shortly after my account was disabled, I received a verification request from Bovada. As soon as I received the email, I submitted all requested documents, including:

1. Front and back copies of my government issued ID

2. A photo of myself holding my ID next to my face

3. A full page proof of address document dated within the last 60 days

I submitted all of these documents immediately and have fully cooperated with the verification process.

It has now been more than 6 days since I submitted the requested documents, and I have not received any update regarding the status of my verification or my account. I have contacted Bovada for an update, but I have not received any meaningful information about when the review will be completed.

In addition, there is approximately $9,990 currently in my account balance. Because of the significant amount of funds being held while the verification review remains pending, I am increasingly concerned about the lack of communication and the extended delay.

I would also like to clarify that the address on my Bovada account matches the address shown on the cricket phone bill I submitted as proof of address. However, they have asked me for a hard copy so i went and sent that then they asked for a bank statement went ahead and sent that Despite this, I provided all requested documentation immediately and have fully cooperated with the verification process. And now they keep asking for adress proof but state that they have recieved it and its crazy because i keep receing an adress proof request of a different type of bill …

I understand that verification reviews may take some time. However, I believe that more than 7 days without any update is unreasonable, especially considering that all requested documents were submitted immediately.

I am requesting that Bovada provide an update on the status of my verification review and, if everything has been successfully verified, restore access to my account as soon as possible.

Thank you for your assistance.
