Delaying my verification after winning


7 years ago
On 10/17/2019 I requested a withdraw of $913 in which I was prompted would take 24-48 hours before I was credited. 48 hours later after submitting my request I call bovada to get answers on why I have not been paid, remind you I have been gambling on this website for a couple years now. Upon speaking to a representative I was told I needed to verify my account which I didn’t understand because I already verified my account when I first began playing on the website in which they asked me to verify my Identification card a credit in which I did and everything went through as it was supposed to. I was told during the that tike that I would only be asked to verify my account once. I asked the representative what is the purpose of me validating my account for second time this time they wanted me to verify my address in which they told me so that my funds aren’t being sent to someone else which sounds like complete bull due to the fact I receive my funds through bitcoin. Long story short the same day I was told to verify my account for the second time which was on 10/17/2019 I submitted my identification card and my bank statement and then was prompted it will take 24-48 hours for the financial department to verify my information and today is 10/24/2019 and my account has not been verified and now I am calling and asking what is the hold up all every representative is telling me is that my documents haven’t been verified and that 24-48 hour time frame is just an approximate time and they have no other answers for me besides that. I feel as though this isn’t fair because why wait until I request a withdrawal to have my account verified and why do I need to be verified more then once it feels like this is some kind of stalling scam from this casino and it isn’t right because I am a customer that plays often and I’ve lost more money with this casino then I have won. The customer service is absolutely horrible, they have no answers to why I am being delayed.

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.
