Verification problems


1 year ago
Good afternoon,

I am reaching out for assistance in resolving an issue with my Bovada account, which was locked on January 31st. On that day, I received an email from Bovada informing me that my account was locked because I needed to verify my identity. In response, I sent a detailed email with pay stubs, my driver’s license, passport, and social security card. However, I did not receive a response that day, so I followed up on February 1st.

I did not receive a reply until February 4th, when I was told I needed to submit another bill. I sent the bill on the same day and waited for a response. Over a week later, I followed up with Bovada on February 11th, but still received no reply until February 13th. During this waiting period, I also tried to contact Bovada through the chat feature for guidance, but the responses were not helpful.

On February 13th, I asked if I could speak to a supervisor to get clarification on the required documentation. From my understanding, I had already submitted everything needed, but I continued to receive requests for additional bills.

I will attach all of my emails and documentation below. I would greatly appreciate any help in resolving this issue, as my account has been locked for over two weeks, and I am still uncertain about the reason for the lock.

Thank you for your assistance.

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.

Account still disabled due to investigation since May 24 with 11000
So during May of this year I went on a pretty good run with my baseball bets, and I ended up getting my account balance up to around $8,000. I tried withdrawing $4,600 on May 23rd, with the request being eventually denied. I'm sure you guys are familiar with their process when they do this, but they proceeded to ask me for identity verification. I submitted all the necessary documents, and soon the verification team emailed me saying the requested documents have been received and verified. I logged back into my account and placed two more bets on two different baseball games ($750 each which made over $1,000 profit on each) and submitted another withdrawal attempt, also I'd like to mention that once I logged back in, I noticed they placed betting limitations on my sports bets. I went to sleep and woke up to both of my games hitting which was super nice, but when I tried to log in I got the dreaded "Your account has been disabled, contact customer support." Of course the withdrawal I placed after submitting my documents got rejected as well, and now it is July 16th, with no conclusion and each time I contacted them, I'm given a similar response. They ask for patience, which I've tried my best to be but honestly that kind of money could make a different for me big time. I'm aware of the situation because it happened to my friend's wife's account but her account got resolved in around 4 days. It's almost been two months with my account.

Please help. The money that they're holding in my account would be super impactful especially right now. I've pleaded with them and they just keep saying be patient. I don't know what sort of investigation could potentially take this long but I need answers.
