Hi AskGamblers team.
I was getting a red error when submitting my complaint saying the title contained invalid characters.
Here was my original title:
I won $9,800 on BoVegas. They are saying they will only pay me in installments of $250. This would take roughly 40 withdrawals / weeks or 9 months to be fully paid out.
Anyhow, I was searching the web and came across a thread regarding BoVegas Casino complaints and how you helped someone in a very similar situation to mine.
I'm hoping you can help me out too.
My 2nd most recent email to them was this.
By the way, I swear to you, the AskGamblers team, the following is 100% true/accurate;
Subject line: 10 reasons why an online casino won't pay me? And my response specific to my account with BoVegas.

That email seemed to have no effect as I received this response this morning;
Dear Andrew
Thank you for your e-mail.
Please take into consideration, that the installment policy has been applied upon your withdrawal request (kindly see the screenshot from T&C below):
Withdrawal requests are processed by the casino in installments. Once the withdrawal request has been approved for the installment amount, the remainder of the player’s funds is returned to the player’s account. After withdrawal approval, players may then make further withdrawal requests on the amount that has been returned to the account. Each withdrawal request and accompanying installment is processed individually
If you ever need any assistance, our friendly customer support representatives are available 24/7 on Live Chat.
Kind regards,

... And here is my most recent response to that email, sent about 30 minutes ago;
So you're saying you're going to pay me only up to $250 a week on a $9,800 win?
You do realize this calculates to nearly 40 total withdrawals and 40 weeks to be fully paid out, correct?
You, as a casino have a right to put whatever you'd like into your terms and conditions.
I, as a human being, have a right to call this particular term or item, or arbitrary number of $250 vs. win %, incredulous. Your installments equate to roughly 2.5% of the total amount per week. Less than 3 percent.
Installments are fine. It's the same at most of your competition. But $250 is not. It is in fact, out of the ordinary, to say the least.
So I am appealing to you to reconsider and increase it to 10%, which would equate to $980, and for simplicities sake, just round up to $1,000.
Your own website also states a max cashout of $2,000 on withdrawals, so I am only asking for half of that.
I am trying to be polite, reasonable and fair. This is half of what another part of your website says in it's terms.
So will you please meet me halfway?
I respectfully ask you at least increase the amount to $1,000 a week so we can be done with this in 10 weeks as opposed to 10 months.
I think it is a reasonable request.
Can you please escalate to top level management this email and let me know the response?
Respectfully,
Andrew < surname removed >
And that's where this currently stands.
Can you please help AskGamblers team?
It's time to bring in the 'big guns' or additional help I'm hoping you guys can be the ones that help me resolve this issue.
Please note it was an arduous process to get verified. They said
occasionally, under special circumstances they can do Bitcoin withdrawals. (They accept Bitcoin and other methods of depositing, but only 1 method to withdraw, which is Bank wire transfer. I said since I had no Bank and asked if they could please make a "special circumstances" exception and let me withdraw via Bitcoin - the same way I originally deposited - to which I got a reply of no.)
Please also note these are the only 3 most recent emails / correspondences I've had with them.
In total, over 20 emails have been sent combined between me and BoVegas, and I've also had numerous chats with their live support team.
I would be happy to forward you the long chain email if you'd like.
I read Ask Gamblers guidelines for submitting and notice it said to include any screenshots or things like that that may be helpful but I don't see a way to attach at least on this first submission but I may have some helpful screenshots for you
This has been something I've been trying to resolve for almost 2 months now.
Can you please help AG team?
Respectfully,
Andrew < surname removed >
