Terrible experience while trying to get paid


On Feb. 28 I requested a check withdraw of $1,130.
Fedex made one attempt to deliver the check.
The check was delivered at 9am, and I was not home.
While tracking the package, I noticed the package status was refused by customer.
Therefore, I immediately contacted Fedex, and was informed that "sender requested the package to be destroyed ".

Fedex advised me to contact the sender. So, I contacted bovada. Bovada claimed this issue had to be investigated. After investigating the case, I was told I would have to pay a $40 stop payment fee on a check that was "destroyed " per senders request.
After going back and forth with Bovada, about how I should not be obligated to pay the stop payment fee, I decided to take the $40 stop payment fee as a lost. I just wanted my funds.
After the stop payment fee was applied, the funds were credited back to my account.
I then attempted a second withdrawal method Visa fast funds.
This was the first method I requested. However, a bovada customer service agent told me MC's could not be refunded only visa cards. Which let to the initial check withdrawal request.

On March 14th, I submitted a withdraw of $1,050 via Visa fast funds.
On March 15th, I received an email informing me, my withdraw has been approved and processed.
Today is April 12, I have yet to receive the funds on my MC.

Bovada suggested visa fast funds method takes 7 to 10 business days.

On the 9th business day, I contacted Bovada and they informed me that my funds were safe and had no need to worry.

The representative told me that my wr ithdrawal was apart of a batch of withdrawals that were being delayed.

2 weeks ago I was told that the delay has been taken care of, and players had reported funds were being issued.

As of today, Bovada can not tell me what is going on with the third party sender.
I am given the same response "continue to check your bank", "your withdrawal may be back dated to the original request date".

I have read complaints of members whose VFF had been canceled, abs the funds placed back into the menses Bovada account.

I do not wish to receive a check from Bovada.
I would like the funds credited on to my MC.

On April 8th, I requested Bovada reach out to their withdrawal department.
As of April 12th I am still being read the same script, and have NOT received my funds.

Today 4/25 I found out my withdrawal was never processed. I've spoken to a member of players advocacy, who promised to handle my account personally. On 4/13 My VFF was refunded back to my bovada account and attempted a second withdrawal again using the vff method. The three steps were "expedited" within hours. I received two messages. One letting me know the withdrawl of my funds are awaiting approval, and, another informing me the withdrawal has been processed and approved. I contacted the player advocacy member who appointed herself to my case on the 18th. She assured me everything was processed, and I should be receiving my funds shortly. On the 23rd I contacted a member of a customer service. The customer service representative informed me that I was currently on my 7th business day. April 25th I made an attempt to contact the associate from player advocacy. However I was informed that she was off for the day. I spoke to another member of player advocacy who informed me that my funds were currently waiting to be processed. I am extremely upset about the miscommunication and the bad that I feel like I am not a priority. I have been awaiting These funds since February 28th.
After being informed about my withdrawal still awaiting processing I could not believe the lack concern shown by the previous member who appointed herself to my case. I did not believe the second member of player advocacy who informed me that my phones were still sitting waiting to be process. I've been contacted a member of customer service who told me that I I'm on my 8th business day. I am so upset because I feel like I am being given the run-around regarding my funds. For the past two weeks I have been told to keep an eye on my bank account. But in all actuality the funds have never been processed. I was given false hopes and promises, and ended up waiting an additional two weeks for funds that were supposedly expedited.
The member from player advocacy that inform me that my funds were waiting to be processed said that he would expedite the withdrawal process and get the funds processed to my account and I should receive them within 5 to 7 days.

Bovada Account Disabled and Verification Pending for Over 10 Days With No Updates
My Bovada account was disabled on May 20, 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 10 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 $11,000 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 internet bill I submitted as proof of address. However, the address on my driver's license is different, as it has not yet been updated. Despite this, I provided all requested documentation immediately and have fully cooperated with the verification process.

I understand that verification reviews may take some time. However, I believe that more than 10 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.

Confiscated winnings earned

Hello,

I wrote this formal complaint on 3-15-26 after escalating over $3,000 of confiscated funds taken away from my account respectfully and was told by Bovada's dispute complaint department a response would be had no later than 10 business days, yet here we are roughly 90 days later and to no avail/no response period! This despite several attempts to resolve 5-30-26.

Formal Dispute of Refer-a-Friend Confiscation

To Whom It May Concern,

I am formally disputing the confiscation of over $3,000 from my Bovada account related to an alleged Refer-a-Friend violation. But no specific clause or term has been identified.

My referral is a legitimate, separate individual who does not live with me and has never used the same device, or Wi-Fi network.

Despite requesting clarification, Bovada has not identified the specific clause in the Terms of Service or Refer-a-Friend program that was allegedly violated.

Please provide the following:

The exact section of the Terms & Conditions that was violated

The evidence used to determine this violation


The justification for confiscating both my winnings and my referral deposit

If no specific contractual violation can be identified, I respectfully request that my funds be reinstated immediately.Winnings and my original referral deposit. Or please escalate to your investigations department for formal review. Lastly

If necessary, I will escalate this matter through formal dispute channels and public complaint services if to no avail.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

My account remains open and fully operable yet Bovada confiscated my deposits and winnings, despite again my several attempts to receive clarification of so called violation of “refer a friend”terms .
