Software Glitch With Goldenman Slot

The bonus game on goldenman is the type of bonus where a player is awarded picks. According to the rules on this particular slot, normally when a player hits the bonus they are awarded 3 picks. However, if you're betting the max you'll be awarded an extra 4th pick. I was betting the max while I was playing and hit the bonus game I believe 3 times in total, and was never awarded my 4th pick once. I wasn't sure what the issue was, so after the 3rd time I wasn't awarded the 4th pick I stopped playing and contacted casino customer service. It may not seem like a big deal, but it really is if one of those picks could award all the picks on the entire screen or is some sort of multiplier for your total. In total I ended up losing $270 during this session. This happened almost a month ago, and am still waiting for their technical support team to finish their investigation as to whats causing the issue. Have had to call multiple times and keep getting the same response of I'll hear back from someone within 24-48 hours. They never call, you always have to call them, and now they don't have any time frame at all of how long it's going to take. Bovada has offered me a $100 bonus and claims that is a more than fair offer to compensate me for the $270 I lost while playing their either fraudulent or broken Goldenman slot machine. The only options they are giving me are take the $100 bonus or I can wait until the investigation is complete to potentially recoup the money I lost, and aren't even providing me with a timeframe. At first they told me 24-48 hours, that was almost a month ago, and now they have no idea of how much longer it will take. They say there's an investigation going on, but for some reason they're still allowing people to play that slot in their casino.... I've been with bovada since back in the day when they were bodog, I can't believe how they treat their loyal customers...

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.
