Betway Review

hi I have been a customer for many years. I uploaded on the 11th of April. I got lucky and built it up and wanted to withdraw my winnings, but when I tried to do so it would not let me use the card that I always deposit from it would only let me select my old card. I tried to call phone line not in use I tried to email email not in use, and I have been trying to speak to someone on live chat, and have waited many hours never got through to any one. after reading all of these reviews I am wondering how they can get away with this? withdrawal has moved from processed back to being processed again. and now saying they need information from me before they process it. but cannot get through to anyone.

I have been on live chat for 6 hours now. Registered account to bet on the Grand National through recommendation. Went to log in with correct details and account was locked. So angry, wasted a whole day of my life on here. Missed national bet, just want my deposit back. Never again😡😡

They desperately need to sort the withdrawing system out. Major bookmakers withdraw now within a couple of hours now near 3 days in and withdrawal hasn’t even been approved nevermind back to me. Used to withdraw within a few hours on here, not sure what has happened to the service but customers certainly not at the forefront of their minds.

Do you know what I was going to give this company the benefit of the doubt after they contacted me after my recent review it just gets worse apparently my payment won’t go through as the card is not in my name. It is I just got married so it’s changed the card is in my maiden name sent them ID and allsorts they told me to change my method it won’t let me withdraw from this method unless I make a deposit which I’m not doing!!! Another ploy to get money! Also won’t let me withdraw from trustly which is the method I used to deposit because I have less than 5 in my withdrawable balance because they have took it all and are holding it somewhere expecting me to wait another 3 hours in the chat it’s disgusting just another ploy and excuse not to pay they have my previous name and new name so there are no excuses. They no you dont want to spend hours waiting for someone to answer the chat please stay away from this company!!!!! Listen to all of the reviews!!!!

This is one of the biggest scam websites I have ever experienced.They did not even let me place a bet,Just let me sign on, place some funds and then locked me out.Have waited hours on their Live??? chat.Dead would be more appropriate.. Do they actually have someone on the Live Chat, To me a looks very mch like they add you on to the queue and then just wait for you to getbored with waiting and go away.It was 42 when I first joined the queue and nw 4.5 hours later I have just reached number 4

So my experience with betway are quite fine i would say. I had a few probs with the game im betting on. Everytime it hit the grand price it just starts to spin again faster and faster. I noticed that. I had a few wins with no problem with withdrawals. The verification process was easily done aswell, but tonight i swore the robbed me my price money. I played the game like i normally do,i spent my time playing this game and tonight it hit grand price R500 and for a second then it went black screen and off they kick me. I had another spin left..just like other times they stole my spins. When i logged in again..no grand price money no other spin.nothing nothing nothing. The stole my winnings of R500. Contacted the chat bot but as you all know the qeue never gets empty. So yeah. Its bad. On other sites when u win durimg glitch you still got your money.but jaaaaaaaaa…its Betway.we talking abouuuutttt…..phew!!!!

Customer service continues to be non-existent at Betway as I’ve spent several more hours in live chat queues looking for an update after sending more ID documentation on Saturday night (6th April). Processes seem to take much longer than other bookmakers I’ve used through the years and based on what friends/colleagues have said. Account remains locked despite initally being told it was verified. Now just looking to get my initial deposit back.

This company is a joke I’m trying to get through to customer support but it’s seemingly impossible 50 in the que it takes 20 minutes to get to 25 in the que but not it’s taken 40 minutes to get from 25 to 21 in the que that’s an hour wasted ITS A JOKE SORT IT

they are shocking spent 2 hours on live chat they asked for my last deposit i give it they asked for the last bet I give it they asked for my username I give it and then there asking for the last casino game I played and did I have free spins from the wheel I haven’t played the wheel or had played a casino game yet they want an answer to it are they stupid I can’t give answers to something that’s ever happened. And I shouldn’t even have to contact them about the promotion offer it should just be credited like it says. Not had a private message off you?

I received this e-mail after I tried to withdraw my money.”We’re trying to send you your withdrawal, but we can’t pay it to your card because it was issued in a country that does not allow us to pay back to cards.To update your preferred method of payment, please log in to your account and follow these steps: Log in and head to your Banking tabGo to the Withdrawal sectionTap the edit button next to your current Preferred Method of PaymentYou’ll see the option to choose between your existing payment methods, edit them or add a new one entirelySelect the option you’d like to updateConfirm the changes You might have to choose the same method you’ve deposited with to make a successful withdrawal.”I did as told and tried to chang to Skrill account from where I made my deposit but the system doesn’t allow me to do the change.And there is nowhere to complain, just very basic and automatic bot which repeats FAQ

Agree with all the previous reviews. Awaiting a 60.15 withdrawal and even though I have now closed the account I received an email stating that any funds remaining would be refunded but I don’t see that happening. Absolute thieves.

Reply

Absolutely awful would give0 star if I could!! Please avoid this is a scam takes over 2 hours to get through on chat and when you do they are not helpful sent my ID 2 days ago and told them j don’t have access to my email registered with them so emailed them off my new one asking to change it got a reply saying they can’t help as the email I’m messaging from isn’t registered well der that’s why I’m emailing. they are OK to take your money but never pay out definitely a scam much better sites to play on who pay out and have some form of decent customer service. Have taken this further.

From the day I made my withdrawal until now it has been 17 days. I got a response from them after I posted a review on Trustpilot and again they went ghost. They said I have sent them the documents they wanted and are waiting to review them, that was over a week ago. I don’t understand why it takes so long to review, but I already know at this point they’re just gonna prolong everything. Anyways the main reason I wanted to write this review was to point out there are fake positive reviews for betway. There was a positive review left by Dávid Gyökös,This guy is a liar, a fake, or a worker at betway. He claims they sent his withdrawl the next day. Complete lie myFriend, go read there terms and conditions it’s a minimum 2-5 day processing. Betway must be feeling the heat from all these bad reviews and they deserve it.

Waiting 6-8 hours to talk to someone , opened an account with Betway vegas and it was locked immediately after I made a deposit , now I’ve verified and account is still locked and can’t withdraw the money back out or log in

They have set ridiculous maximum bet limit. Their customer service is almost non-existent. Be prepared you will be put in the queue in the live chat box for hours. Their live support hours are 09:00-00:00 GMT, so I started queuing at 9:01am as number 5. I have been waiting for 2 hours, still waiting in the queue as number 1. What’s wrong with the customer service?? They even cancelled the mailbox for any enquiries, so I have no choice but to queue and hoping someone will help.

Reply

Was in queue on live chat for 4 hours before i had to close the internet and go on with my day, i asked them to email me the response but it seems they just ignored the chat.

Don’t Listen To The Negative Reviews. I’m not a bot and they didn’t pay me for this when I registered they blocked my account straight after my first deposit, I was pissed and worried I had to wait 3 hours in the queue with customer service. They were super kind and helpful they told me I had to send them documents to verify myself, I did and they released the block. I played a few times and never had any problem with deposits or withdraws and a few days ago I won £900 from £10 and they sent it the next day. It’s a great site, if you’re not winning maybe because you’re unlucky, but Betway works perfectly and they really made my day.

I’d rather be kicked in the d*ck then have to deal with this awful service!I have been trying to withdraw MY money for months. The account is verified. It just keeps saying I have to make a deposit first. I have from this exact card. Amazing how easy it is to deposit but impossible to withdraw.Then it asks you to send an email. To which you get a reply saying “this is no longer used”And their “live chat” is the diarrhoea-icing on the cr@pcake. Trying to navigate the mentally ill chat bot to get in the human queue in itself is enough to make you go postal on all technological products in your house, but in the queue is worse.I have heard from someone that worked there that it just randomly generates a number and slowly moves down with the sole intention of making you give up – and there are no humans. I tried anyway, and after a few hours it just kicks you out.Is the entire thing a scam? Just give me my money back so I can quit

I’m not the average customer, I’ve wagered thousands of pounds in this site and for the most part it has been great. Unfortunately, I have lost patience as the company won’t pay out a free bet that I was eligible for, despite clear proof. Live chat is no help, and the complaints team are useless. I’ve given them a couple of weeks to resolve the issue but to no avail.

I have put a lot of money into betway and now got a small win and it is refusing me to withdraw my winnings to the same account I have deposited money with

Reply

Opened an account around 2 months ago, able to deposit no issues over the course of that time. Went to deposit last Sunday and my account got closed, recieved an email to say account was closed and remaining funds would be returned to payment method used (£63). I then recieved another email on the Tuesday to say there was no withdrawal method available on my account (strange as i’d been able to deposit around £150 since opening?). I spent 3 hours on live chat to be told to send ID documents, bank statement and method of payment for the withdrawal of remaining funds, i sent all of the above and have not heard a thing since after being told it would take no longer than 48 hours. It has now been 7 days. i spent 5 hours on live chat on Saturday (2.5 of those i was position “1”) only to get cut off. I have tried 2x different email addresses advised by the live chat agent and only had 1 generic response not relating to my query whatsoever. Avoid.

About two kinths ago niw wrote a message to say u placed a bet after said bet unsuccseful u wrote back saying u were going to look into itbu never did disgusting

I’ve been contacted by betway support service asking for bank statement, so I send them bank statement and now saying “This mailbox is no longer monitored and your email will not be responded to”All I want is my money I withdrawal… boycott this scamimg company, I’m about to take it next stage and take Further action against betway if this is not sorted.

Reply

If I could give 0 stars I would. I opened an account 4 days ago, had an email saying that my account had been verified. I deposited £10 to get the free spin bonus. My account was locked, the only support they offer is live chat which takes hours and hours. I haven’t got through to an agent for days. I can’t get to my money, I can’t use the website and I can’t get in touch with anyone. What a truly awful experience, I’d advise anyone to avoid at all costs.

Reply

There is literally no way to speak to a chat agent. I have spent hours waiting in queue only to get to position 8-5 and then the chat drops. I am concerned after reading all the other reviews about withdrawals from this site, I have never wrote a negative review for any site before but this is ridiculous. For such a well known company they use a Mickey mouse chat service. I just want contacted and given a timeframe for my withdrawal. Will not use again unless this is sorted promptly.

Reply

2+weeks and all I’ve gotten was “ we are reviewing your documents and will get back to you at soonest time” I bet there conspiring a plan to not pay me out, they sent me an email claiming they have a team working on myIssue. Lies, if they did it would have been sorted out in an instant, All they have to do is look at my id snd documents and confirm it’s me on the other end. This is honestly disgusting. I bet if I never wrote a review on trust pilot they would still be ignoring me. I only got a real response after I left a review.Which is sad when they spent more time looking at their reviews rather than actually helping their customers out on their own site. It’s a common theme when reading reviews, plenty of customers were responded to their reviews before the emails they had sent. I will continue writing reviews, until my case is fully resolved. I hope more people follow suit and write multiple reviews, 1 for each day they hold your money hostage. They’re not paying me interest for holding my money, but the revenue they will lose from my reviews will be enough interest for me.Eat that betway, you’re gonna be losing lots of money, so keep up your disgusting practice.

I can’t withdraw my winningsI have emailed numerous times they just sent me hideous unhelpful replies I bot keeps cutting outI just want to withdraw my winnings

I deposited money into the site and they locked my account and ask me to verify which I thought was fair enough, they have not responded in 2 weeks and I have talked to many agents assuring me that I will be looked at. How can they justify taking money but not allowing me to get it back if they are not able to give me access to my account?

Reply

My partner deposited, won and withdrew. A week later still no money and account has been closed, this is after multiple messages stating that it was approved and on The way. An official complaint has been submitted. Disgusting and nobody to talk to been on hold on live chat for over 6 hours and nobody cares or acts upon the requests for information as to why.

My account has been blocked, funds have not been withdrawn, Betway does not respond to messages at all. I don’t recommend it

Now been waiting weeks for any sort fix/update/indication as to why I suddenly can’t access my account which has open bets in it. Only one bit of contact I got was a generic email claiming it was being looked into, after leaving review on here.@betway.. if this is not resolved by COB tomorrow I will be logging an official complaint and then going to IBAS. An absolutely dreadful experience.

TLDR : DO NOT USE, KNOWN SCAM!!Absolutely the worst gambling site ive ever joined. Is 100% a scam. DO NOT JOIN! Will be reporting to IBAS (Independant Betting Adjudication Services). Join a trusted site like Willam Hill, Bet365, PaddyPower, Ladbrokes, Coral etc. I am a member of some 40 plus gambling sites and this one is by far the worst and the only one i have ever needed to complain about!I joined up and deposited £10 and my account was instantly locked. I then tried to speak to live support and was “position 50th in line” I waited 7 hours until i was first. Two days in a row. I was first place for over an hour. That never changed. Their live chat closed. I greatly suspect their live chat is a complete lie. That no one actually ever gets to speak to a real human agent.Their support email is dead. They literally steal your money. I have over 200 followers on my art page so will be uploading a copy of the situation to warn others.*Edit* Reply to Betway : No you wont, youve said that to every negative review, funny how your company comes crawling out the woodwork within hours of a negative review but no one can be bothered to answer the live chat for two days solid…

basically… on Betway you get to have a go on the free prize wheel every night at midnight, if you deposit £20 and spend £10 on the slots, you get to have a go on the super prize wheel. Since UK clocks have gone forward Betways system is all over the place 🤦‍♂️ you now have to wait till 1am to have a go on the free wheel. So I deposited £60 and went to slots at midnight UK time and received the pop up message that I have qualified for a super spin. I did not go to the spin section until 1am which the system thinks is 12am and a new day, resulting in me losing my spin. Avoid like the plague guys

All was good until I updated my card details. Couldn’t withdraw to new card. Live chat never gets answered by agent. No email or phone number works. Avoid avoid avoid

There are a lot of better bookmakers out there. Avoid like the plague.Signed up last weekend, received an email saying I was verified, and by the time I’d made some selections for an acca for the welcome offer, my account had been locked. It took two attempts to get through to customer services initially before being told I’d need to verify my account by sending ID docs. Pretty standard, no bother, I sent the email (and have double checked email address, etc.) on Monday. It’s now Saturday and I’ve had no response. I’ve spent 15+ hours queueing for the Live Chat over the last 3 days (fortunately I had stuff to do while I waited), either getting to late at night and not being spoken to, or being disconnected for no reason. Customer service seems to be non-existent, best to just avoid them.

Absolutely horrendous site, waiting for 2 separate withdrawals and I haven’t received any yetThe live chat is a joke constantly disconnects after I’m working hours AVOID

Can’t fault the withdrawal process, what I am complaining about is I’ve spent over 2k and had all my promotions removed?? So now can’t get the free spins or free bet from casino rewards? Can’t get through on live chat either!!

I will be writing a new review every few days until I get my $10,000. It’s been almost 2 weeks now with no response. I managed to get a hold of their live chat and as everyone else stated, they are completed useless. They said my account is in review and they will get back to me, that was a week ago. Today I log into betway to see if my withdrawl is still in processing and it’s in the last step. Also when I logged in, it sent me new terms and conditions to sign, which I will not be signing. I have a feeling there’s something in the new terms that will screw me over and they will not pay me out. The site just kicked me out once I hit cancel on the new terms.I will seeking legal advice if this persists for another week. It’s a shame how they make milllions and billions of dollars but cry and deploy scummy tactics to not pay out.

I received a reply from Betway via trust pilot. I explained I can’t withdraw money to the card I used to deposit funds! However they can take money from this card but can’t allow withdrawals! So they send me an email explaining how I can withdraw money from my account. The problem is that the edit card details is greyed out & you can’t update the correct card details in order to withdrawal the funds. They then refer you yet again to the live chat help which is pathetic. Over the space of 3 days I’ve wasted 21 hours waiting to speak to an agent & when you get down to a low number in the queue they disconnect you. I’ve raised a formal complaint with the UK manager & awaiting a response. This company are committing fraud. They take peoples money & don’t want to pay money/winning to winning customers. What sort of website has no phone number or email address. They are crooks & scammers. Betway UK needs to be shut down.

So many bad things about this company:1. Payout times take anywhere from 2 – 6 days, nowhere near the 1-2 hours(or instantly) of their competitors. When i queried how long the internal process takes the best answer I could get was literally “I don’t know” after waiting 60 minutes to speak to someone. Leading to point 2….2. It takes over an hour to reach an agent by chat, no matter what time of day, and there are a lot of account issues so you constantly need to contact them. They don’t seem very knowledgable at all when you do finally get through and they close the chat if you don’t reply within a couple of minutes – EVEN THOUGH YOU’VE WAITED 90+ MINUTES TO SPEAK TO THEM.3. Their weekly promotions NEVER apply automatically as they’re supposed to, and the daily ones only do it about 50% of the time. This leads back to point 2, where you need 90 minutes and some luck to even speak to somebody to get it rectified. Overall, terribly run across the board and it doesn’t appear that they care about that at all. I wouldn’t go near them.

Good sportsbook, I cashed out and it took about 3 days, everything went well with the Interac bank transfer. My main reasons for cashing out : the website wasn’t working properly with my PC browser (Chrome). It was taking a long long time for me to log in, it would just hang sometimes for at least a minute, not letting me log in … Sometimes the log in wouldn’t even work at all and I would have to go to another sportsbook to make my bet too. Frustrating. I tried installing the app on my tablet as well but it wasn’t working either, always getting and error message on my phone too … so after enduring this for a few months I decided to cash out and use another sportsbook instead. If things had gone smoothly with the website at least I wouldn’t have cashed out and I would have kept my Betway account active but I just ran out of patience after a while … still a pretty good experience with Betway despite those repetitive technical problems.

Withdrawal issues!! I’ve tried for almost 2 weeks to get my money ( $1010 CDN) out of my account but it hasn’t arrived! They said that an email was sent which I never received. Then it was a code to use for my deposit which isn’t needed as I have auto deposit. The Help Bot is totally useless as it just goes in circles without solving the issue. This site is CRIMINAL!
