Blacklisted

AskGamblers have been notified that Bovada casino is operating without a valid licence issued by a regulated authority. As a result we issued an official warning hoping that the operator will manage to solve the issue. Unfortunately, months afterwards, the casino is still operating without a valid licence which basically means zero protection for players in case of a problem with the operator and that is why Bovada is being added to our blacklist.

Bovada Casino is an online casino derived from Bodog Casino, one of the largest brands in the Internet gaming world. The casino's licence by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission has been terminated.

Security and Fairness

The Internet can be a dangerous place, so Bovada Casino has put into place several protocols to make their players completely secure. First and foremost, the transmission of any personal or sensitive data is safeguarded with 128-bit SSL encryption, which prevents anyone from accessing your information. Bovada Casino's privacy policy also guarantees that they will never sell or give out your information to any third parties.

Genuine randomness should be something that all online casinos offer. Although Bovada Casino has apparently given sufficient proof to the Kahnawake Gaming Commission, they do not currently have any third-party audit seals posted on their website. Nonetheless, these are the same games that have been verified at the Bodog website, and we have no doubt that they are fair.

Bovada Casino - Delayed verification and account disabled with no response
Casino name: Bovada Casino

Complaint type: Delayed verification / account disabled – no response

Complaint details:

I am filing this complaint due to an unresolved account review and lack of communication from Bovada following a withdrawal request.

On January 3, I was contacted by Bovada’s Investigations team and asked to submit verification documents, including a photo ID and a selfie with the ID. I submitted all requested documentation the same day.

On January 5, I received an email stating that they received my documentation and that my account was under review and that I would be contacted once the review was completed. Since then, my account has remained disabled.

As of today Jan 20th, more than three weeks have passed since the documents were submitted. I have sent polite follow-up emails and contacted live chat. Live chat confirmed that the account is still under review but advised that there is no estimated time frame for completion. I have not been informed that any additional documentation is required, nor have I received any explanation for the delay.

The funds in question in total is 24k that were obtained after meeting all wagering requirements, and I complied fully with the verification request. The only mistake I made was not using my real name when signing up because I did not know that I had to use my real name which I explained in my original response to the verification team. A simple mistake that can be corrected with the verification documents that I provided. I am simply seeking confirmation that my review is progressing and resolution of the account review so I can access my account and withdrawal. I do not understand the purpose of this delay or why this is taking more than 3 weeks to resolve.

I am requesting Bovada’s assistance in completing this verification process and providing a clear update on the status of my account.

Thank you for your help.

Bovada Casino - Account temp disabled with funds locked of 21750
I am submitting this complaint regarding Bovada disabling my account and placing it under investigation immediately after I won approximately $21,750 on blackjack.
I have been an active Bovada customer for the past 4-6 months and used the platform daily without a single issue. I have never violated Bovada's terms and conditions, nor have I engaged in any prohibited or suspicious activity.
I have consistently deposited and withdrawn funds without any problems since joining.
On the previous week in question, I successfully withdrew $4-5k from my account without issue.
I then continued playing, deposited additional funds, and got free bonus this recently Sunday 1-4-2025 free play for $500 that was available on my account. I fully complied with all bonus wagering and rollover requirements, placed multiple bets, and primarily played blackjack.

While playing through the blackjack, I won approximately $21,750, mostly on the same game. After successfully completing the bonus rollover and attempting to withdraw my winnings, my account was suddenly disabled and placed under investigation.
Bovada later requested identity verification, which I promptly and fully provided. My identity has since been verified by Bovada's verification team. Despite this, my account remains disabled, and my winnings remain inaccessible. No clear explanation has been provided as to why the investigation is still ongoing or what issue, if any, exists with my account.
I fully understand the importance of identity verification and security procedures. However, I did everything requested of me and followed all rules. From my perspective, the only reason my account was disabled is because I won a significant amount of money while playing blackjack .

I am requesting that Bovada:
1. Provide a clear and specific explanation for why my account remains under investigation
2. Re-enable my account immediately
3. Release my rightful winnings without further delay
I am filing this complaint in hopes that AskGamblers can assist in getting Bovada to resolve this matter fairly and promptly, as I believe my account has been unfairly restricted despite full compliance with all rules.

Android device unable to apply bonus. Customer service was useless to help in any way. Was advised to deposit again and try to apply bonus again. Bullshit.

I like their sports book odds but stay away from the casino an poker room

Poker is ridiculously rigged.I am not complaining just on bad beats on me but i consistently watched inferior hands win.Their software is set up to make people believe you can call with anything and you have a chance of winning.I have watched both in hands I was in and hands I had folded bizarre catches and routine bad beats.Straw that broke the camels back I lost flopping a flush (to TWO other hands also flopping a flush - the odds!), flopping a straight and losing to a flush and flopping a set losing to a full house on three strait hands.Then I flopped a full house in another tourney to lose in a one out 4 fo a kind.Just too many bad beats too often to believe it is legit!

The customer service couldn’t tell me why every time I hit a bonus it makes me refresh the page 3 times. Shame because I like the idea I like the ability it to play on my device but I hate being taken advantage of. Bovada has zero stars in my opinion any real casino would back up their games ..., therefore their I.T. Because it works like junk

Nothing because its impossible to be paid due to the bonus system they have

I have had an account since this was bodog. Deceiving bonus system, horrible customer service, games are corrupt as you will ALWAYS lose. Go to a REAL gaming website or casino

NOTHING. They have absolutely nothing to offer and no redeeming qualities as a business.

Bovada is a complete predatory outfit which is saying a lot as far as casinos go. They spend lots of money publishing phony reviews and have a team that attempts to "scrub" the internet of bad reviews. The truth is this, they are nothing more than a con game in the most hopeless sense of the words. If you think you have bad odds at the casino they are far far far worst. They rig their programmable games so casino and poker games should be avoided at all cost. If that isnt bad enough, if they offer you a cash bonus for depositing a certain volume it is a complete robbery. To be able to withdraw your funds after taking a bonus offer you have to meet their terms of agreements. For example I deposited $500 and received $200 in bonus cash. I was not able to withdraw my funds as they explained it was winnings with their bonus cash and that means I needed to meet there wager term. The term was this, I needed to wager at least $21,000 to be able to cash out (EVEN MY ORIGINAL $500) but the most nefarious thing was certain games get credited differently and you have only a certain period of time to do so. In my case this was 3 months. For table games they only credit 5 cents for every dollar wagered (5%). Doing the math I needed to wager approximately $500,000 in a few months to be able get to withdraw my money, INCLUDING MY ORIGINAL DEPOSIT. It is legitimate robbery.

I only like the platform. I thought it was easy to place a bet, however bovado is not a place to put your hard working money. First of all they take a certain %age everytime you make a deposit, however it is a scam and Fraud. Customer service is really *****. All they say is sorry for the inconvenience e.t.c. usual answer just like every other phone or cable company. Do not put your hard working money something that is overseas and you cant sue not take them to court

I dont like a lot of thing that bovado does. Trust no one in this life. Ppl told me it was a good site and pay on time. I say ok, I try it.. I deposit they took 10% deposits fee and then they refused to pay my withdrawal. It has been a month but all I hear is we sending according to your time frame. Idk what that mean and I have been waiting for a month. It say 15 to 20 days for a check to be mailed to you. This ppl very disrespectful on the phone. They help you if you depositing tho. But when it comes to cashing out good luck

Leadership boards are a great way of getting bonus fund to play around with.

Around 10% of the time you actually place and win bonus funds, the funds never arrive to your account. If you contact their support team, you'll either wait 2hours + for a phone response or an on-site chat representative that can "escalate" your problem. These reps will tell you that it will be reviewed within 24-48 hours. After a few days, you contact them and go through the same channels again with no resolution. This is straight up robbery.

Bovad is an absolute joke. They changed my bet after I agreed to a minus 10 and switched title to minus 13.5 . They claimed I had slow internet and refused to pay me the winnings or refund my money. Do not bet with this site

Come on Bovada, go back to that amazing casino you guys once were 3 years ago. Its not too late. Get your licenses back, speed up withdrawal times, and communicate with your players. If you do those three steps youll be back on top in no time. Thus more players will join, more affiliates will refer, and more money will come in for both the players and the casino. C9me on Bovada, I have faith you guys will turn it around.

We all know what the issues are here. Hopefully they will implement the correct steps to bec9me legitamate again. Fingers crossed. This used to be my favorite casino to play at a few years ago.

The only thing positive is I got a customer service rep on the phone.

Bovada are total thieves.

I played the craps game and let me tell you about it. I got real suspicious of the craps game thinking it was rigged. So, I made bets and covered most of the numbers/rolls. I would purposely leave a number/situation out and wouldnt you know that was the number/situation that came up. I would then do it with the point and against the point, same thing. Keep in mind I would cover all numbers/scenarios and leave one scenario out, repeating this constantly. The one number/scenario I left out would come up. I changed it around after each roll, not just after a point was made. They are basically stealing.

Askgamblers.com is the only legit review site that I have found. The other ones are shills for the casinos.
