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.

I didn't give them much money. I don't have anything nice to say.

Pretty much impossible to get money out. All winnings go to locked funds, and when I requested a withdrawal my account was locked. Probably the worst customer service I have ever worked with. Not helpful or respectful. Doing business with them was a mistake.

Good games and nice sport betting system. The only good thing about it is its really organized and you can find where you want to go and what you want to do on the system very easily.

Verification takes forever, it has been well over a week and still no response.. its been way over the 24-48 hour process. Also customer service seems to be helpful but honestly its not that helpful at all since they cannot even solve their problem within the time frame that they give.

It was ok for a while, then it wasn't.
Easy to use, even for beginners, but don't do it.

Please DO NOT do business with Bovada. Customer service is TERRIBLE - they are difficult to work with and quite argumentative; even the supervisor, named Shavora, that I ended up speaking with was unpleasant. They may feel the same about me, but I was really trying to be fair and reasonable. Details: I had a bet that was originally settled as "void", when it should have been settled as a "win"; therefore, my winnings were not available for me to bet. Eventually, it was settled as a "win" and funds were added to my account. When I inquired about this and asked for some sort of compensation for my trouble, I suggested $100 but would have accepted less, their response was, basically, sorry we can't do anything for you; we don't believe you and don't believe that the bet was ever settled as void; and we don't care if you continue to be a customer or not. This poor review is not about losing money. I won some and lost some; lost more than I won. But anyone who gambles like this, knows that they are much more likely to lose than to win. At the time this issue occurred, I had deposited, bet and lost over $1,000 (which went to Bovada's income). Yet they were still unwilling to work with me to resolve the matter and keep my business. My issue is with their poor customer service and poor business decision.

I was really surprised to see so many negative reviews here. I have had an excellent experience at Bovada. They pay well and so far I have gotten my bitcoin withdrawals anywhere from same day to next day. Plus their withdrawal limit is $9500 via bitcoin. Customer service via live chat has always been quick and very helpful. They have a great selection of slots and continue to be one of my favorite casinos.

I deposited funds with a credit card and gamble there a few months. I won a few dollars then my account was suspended. They said after 2 months my card requested the funds back. I never received a chargerback to my credit card and they are telling me I have to send in more money to cover the original charge even though I am up money.
This place is a total scam stay away!!

Clean site interface.. very simple to use. Variety of Casino games is decent.

Customer service is poor. Their response time to anything is never what you're told. I sent address verification with a response time of 24-48 hours. It's been 5 days now and still nothing from Bovada. When you call CS you get the same old song of 24-48 hours, after it's been far past that mark. Put a lot of money through Bovada but after this I'll be using another book from now on.

- I love their sports betting platform
- Poker came back a couple months ago with great tournaments
- Casino is fun with good selection
- Bitcoin accepted
Large jackpots and awesome poker tournaments.

I'm not sure what happens with bovada. They were #1 2 years ago in my opinion. I still use their site but for poker and sports betting. The casino seemed to go downhill a bit. I wonder why they didn't renew their licenses. There must be a good reason, bovada still has a lot of customers and they make a lot of money. They don't need to screw people.

Bonuses are ok with usually 3 choices weekly however they all have low cash out limits..so if you deposit $50 with a bonus you can only keep $150 once wager requirements are through.

Great online casino!! Easy to deposit and very fast payouts. Withdrew via check 1st time and my check was at my door within 7 days. Using Bitcoin now and that's just a few hours!! Love, love, love!!! Thank you Bovada!!

very fast payouts
big variety of games to choose
jackpots
also very fair sports betting
I like also the new bonus program

for now I don't have any complaints, may be just a small minus is that there are not many match bonuses

Wolffering: I have nothing but good things to say about Bovada. At first I was skeptical just like everyone else, and I have never really gambled before. I deposited $500 and played roulette. I lost all of it. Deposited another $500 and lost it again. Just when I was about to give up I gave it one more chance and deposited another $500. Luck was on my side and made back all my money plus some. I withdrawed twice using bitcoin and received my money less then 24hr each time. I send in a copy of my ID and credit card and never had any problems. Also great customer service pick up right away. I only played roulette and I think it’s a fair game. So far so good

They locked my act once because I was working overseas and not in the US. It only took one call to set it straight
