Slow Pay Bovada Casino: Slow Pay Warning

[Nifty29]

Not completely buying into the theory about U.S. players not being able to get quicker cash-outs because we are U.S.
That whole gambling/banking problem in the U.S. has been going on for a few years...and even with that problem being understood I can remember several times in recent months I have been able to cash out much quicker than 15 days and sometimes within a few days.

It's a valid point I think.

Basically, it comes down to which processor the casino employs. I don't know for sure, but i get the impression that its a case of getting what you pay for at the end of the day. I suspect that some processors may charge a premium for fast processing, and operators who won't pay the extra are put in the slow lane with all the others.

It also appears that processors have much tighter restrictions on the number of wires etc they will send at one time, presumably to avoid setting off alarm bells in the US. So, even though the casino might well send out 200 wires for processing, the processor might only send 25 a day per merchant, so it will be 8 days before that one batch is cleared. Couple that with a probable holding policy of up to 10 days by the processor, it can make for some serious delays.

Of course, there are casinos who just deliberately slow pay, but I doubt that is the intention of the good ones.

Check Received

I just noticed that I stated that the 26th was the day of my withdrawl approval date, when it was actually the 23rd. Whoops..

Anyway, I want to let everyone know I received payment on Friday Feb 17th. The check was issued from a foreign bank so time will tell if my bank has an issue with it. Very different experience from the CWC group.

Bovada Slow Payments

Bovada casino has been promising me a payout for the past month. At first they said 15 days, and when I inquired by phone and sent e-mail, all I got was excuses, and after awhile they just started sending form letters apologizing for the delay. As yet I have no payout, but will keep you updated on any progress.

Bovada Slow Payouts

I never had a problem with them until May. Now they are later than ever (34 business days since first approved payout). Does anyone know what is going on with them? Customer service is very polite but unhelpful. Really enjoyed this casino but quite concerned at this point.

Very Slow PAYOUTS

I have been waiting for a payout since April 29th. I called again today and they said it was sent to the courier but could not give me a tracking number. Today marks 42 business days without my money.

Slower than ever....

I've never had a significant problem with Bodog/Bovada, but my most recent payout is slower than ever. The site claims 20 business days on average. My first inquiry to customer service gave me a response of 25 business days. My second inquiry just gave an apology and an assurance that I would get my payout with no time frame. It's been 38 days since my payout was approved. It appears I am not alone in my frustration with Bovada. Definitely going to look elsewhere to play until they get things figured out.

Yes, I haven't had any problems before either, but this is bordering on being absurd. Yes, and I'm not putting any more money in Bovada until I get my payouts.

they say up front on how long it takes to recieve your pay-out. dont want to wait then dont play.ive won over 4500.00 this year and had my money in hand on the 25th busness day. its not slow pay, its just business thats how there casino works. you have options to play or not. so people do your home work before you go to school.

That was quite rude of you. Basically, other players are saying recent payouts are taking much longer than usual and thus posted their experiences. There might or might not be problems but that's exactly what the forum is for - sharing of experiences. Others are entitled to state their feelings. In case it turns out that there are problems with this casino you will have plenty of egg on your face.

Sorry you are incorrect. Many persons were told that payment would be received in 15 business days. Many called and were given information about payment in 20 days-then Bovada said 25 days. My first payment received was over 45 business days since both courier services delivery on Saturdays--that is absurd. My second payment was not received until 30 days and if you include Saturdays it was 36 days. I hope that their payment issues get resolved--because I have been playing for years, when It was Bodog and now Bovada. And I have done my homework.

well i was sharing a few words that its not that complicated. but with all i have read that people didnt want to wait for there pay-out so they started dissing the casino! i guess some people were there feelings on there sleave.and as far as a casino player, i thought some people need to know the rules before they play. its just that simple. not knocking them, just giving them advice. no egg on face. this is a lagit casino. they have recently changed there 15 days to 25 days { working days }. so really,dissing the casino isnt cool eather.im a 10 year vet to playing online casinos and i know the rules before i play.
