Betway Review

Absolutely atrocious company. I registered account 3 days ago and deposited funds. They immediately locked me out and after enquiring I needed to provide documents. Fair enough, but 3 days after nothing. Their live chat yesterday did not respond to me in over an hour and today I was no. 45 in the queue…needless to say I didn’t wait. Bear in mind their welcome promotional offer must be taken up within 7 days of registering, yet they have robbed me off 3 so far. Always been wary about these new up and coming betting companies and their ethics and if they act unscrupulously.

Joke betting site, constantly broken links with supposedly allocated “Free Spins”. …ended up costing me money (as I hadn’t realized the link to the game with the “FREE SPINS” hadn’t any free spins attached. No customer service took four hours to wait to speak to someone. I was no 1 (for 45 mins), still couldn’t get through in the end!! Been pretty loyal over the last few years but I’ve had enough…..going to Bet365.

Why is it that I only ever get 3 free spins on wacky panda on the prize wheel. What’s the point of it. It must surely be rigged to not even get anything more

Omg this company seriously is a con. I opened an account and deposited and then it blocked my account with no explanation and it is holding onto my deposit. I cannot log in I cannot withdraw. Why is no one doing anything about these con sites.

I have been gambling for several years on various online platforms, including Hollywood, LottoStar, and Betway. While most platforms have been reliable, Betway has consistently been problematic when it comes to withdrawals.At first, I thought the delays—sometimes up to three days—were a safety mechanism to encourage responsible gambling. However, my experience over the past few months has proven otherwise.In December 2024, I won R7,000 and requested a withdrawal. The withdrawal was reversed without explanation. I tried again after the reversal, and once again, nothing came through. Frustrated but hopeful, I continued playing, losing some of my winnings in the process, reducing my withdrawal amount to R4,000. Still, no payment was made.By January 2025, I contacted Betway, only to be told my account was under review, which was preventing the withdrawal. I escalated the issue twice, and on the second escalation, a manager assured me that my account was fine. Trusting their word, I resumed playing and managed to increase my winnings to R6,000. Once again, I requested a withdrawal and left a small amount to continue playing.Unfortunately, nothing has changed. Despite calling numerous times and being asked to wait 24-48 hours repeatedly, I am still waiting for my winnings as we approach February.This experience has left me frustrated and deeply disappointed. It feels like Betway does not prioritize its customers and lacks transparency when it comes to handling withdrawals. For anyone considering gambling on their platform, proceed with caution. If a company cannot honor its withdrawal processes, it raises serious questions about its integrity

I’ve been using betway for a long time. I made a 270$ bet that won and it says it’s paid out 540. However, they only paid me 225$ total. How did I lose money on a winning bet? I keep going in live chat and they said it was settled accordingly and then kicking me out. Please betway contact me and make this right. I have a screenshot in transactions history that says bet: 270 payout:540 closing balance:225

If it would be possible to put less than 1 star I would do that.I’ve made a bet and received an email that I was banned from receivin any further bonuses without any explanation. After emailing them back, and asking what was the reason, I’ve got another email saying that they have decided to clese my account in 5 days lolSuper dissapointed. Don’t recommend them to anyone.

Been with Betway for well over a year, regular deposits, generally play slots for 20p or 40p, was playing at 20p tried to change it up to 40p it max bet by accident, played a £50 spin wiped my balance from £72 to £22, point blank refused a refund or a compromise, how this is ethical is beyond me.

Very unprofessional from betway been waiting almost 2 days for my winnings to pay out. Bought several times airtime to phone betway to ask when will I receive my winnings just to tell me a supervisor will phone me in the next 4 hour to resolve my problem still waiting. No commission from betway.

Deposited £10 played through the money for 125 free spins and won £80 quid. Tried to withdraw but was told my account had been reset and I have been refunded the £10 I deposited. The reason I auto filled my information and it put my wife’s details in rather than mine. No option to put it right just wham bam we will take your winnings man. Worst casino I have played on.

Again i tried to deposit GBP25 and it just stayed with blue green and yellow circles alternating around each other. After five minutes lapsed, I came back and it was still the same. Tried again but it said I was upto my daily limit and refused any further deposit.I have no idea at this moment if my Bank Account has been debited with GBP25 or where the monies are.I do not know if anybody else suffers like this as it is very annoying you are powerless to do anything about the situation.This is the acknowledgement I just received :-======================================Thank you for your email.For any account queries, please visit our Help page=====================================A hurtful and uncaring attitude of this gambling company. I have looked at the help pages and they are useless in the scenario that I face. I find this response very upsetting.

Absolutely ridiculous!!Withdrawel… so I made a Withdrawel of £400 how the hell does it take more than 24 hours to process it?! So quick to take your money but can’t be bothered to review a Withdrawel and process it their end.. live chat are completely useless and seem to follow a script of please wait for 24 hours for your Withdrawel to be processed!! I have!! Most betting sites have an instant withdrawel method.. think these need to get in with the times! So frustrating when all you get told is the same thing every single time. Like what’s happening on your finance team really?! Ridiculous!!

I won NZD 202,500 on Betway and requested a withdrawal between January 6th and 8th. It’s now been over 7 days, and my payment has still not been processed. Every time I reach out to customer support, I receive the same generic response that the operations team is reviewing my account, but they can’t provide any time frame for when the payment will be processed. It’s incredibly frustrating to see that, despite spending millions on advertisements and promotions, they seem to have no regard for their existing customers. I don’t understand how such organizations can do the business with customer rating of 1.3 star at first place.

I requested a withdrawal eight days ago. The day after I requested the withdrawal, my account was closed for verification and they requested documents. I sent all the documents to them within minutes to verify my account. And now it’s eight days later and I still haven’t gotten a clear response on what is occurring other than the operations team is reviewing my documents. I’m reading reviews and seeing this is a regular occurrence and BETWAY will not pay winnings. I will be contacting the gaming commission in my state by end of week if I don’t receive winnings.

Unfortunately I’m having bad experience and same issue as people before. Since 10/1 I didn’t receive a single withdrawal. Last 5 days I’m trying to contact customer service and find the solution, but without any success. Online support is not helpful at all, they are unable to conect you with financial team or supervisor. So the only information you get is they trying to fix it and you can contact them again in 48 hours. The only solution they found was to unable me to log in to my account. Which I tried to contact them again and they only apologized they having some connection problems in UK. So not only didn’t get my withdrawals.. I’m also unable to log on to my account. Avoid this betting company if you don’t want to wait over the week for withdrawal. Costumer service doesn’t exist on this site…

Avoid!! To make a deposit it takes one minute, been 48 hours since I tried to make a withdrawal and the payment still hasnt even been processed. Quick enough to take your money but don’t seem to want to pay out. All other UK bookmakers will have your money in your bank within 2 hours. Avoid betway!

Absolute tess tickles. The daily free wheel gives you a free spin on the crappest slot where 5p is considered a good win. The website is clunky and slow amd retarted AF

PLEASE READ THIS:-Betway, do not payout if you win on any free games and if you play the daily free games, you end up with the same thing everyday.

Reply

Don’t credit you your free bet as per their terms and then when you try to withdraw to a card as I wanted to try get some of money back, they then say you can’t withdraw to that method even though you have used it to deposit and I am sure they need to pay it back to the same method. I was forced to close my account just to try and collect my winnings but have still not received these and am starting to doubt I eve will. you cannot contact anyone there and just end up speaking to a bot who cannot resolve your queries and they have no interest in resolving queries

Betway have a feature on their website where you can spin every day and get a randomly allocated amount of spins. For months, it was sincerely random, culminating a couple of weeks ago in a very fortutious 30 pound plus win for me on one of the games.Since then, betway have rigged the game, ensuring I get the lowest amount of spins, 1, every single time. This has happened over 20 times now, which is statistically borderline impossible. In reading this crooked company’s other reviews on this website, I’ve since discovered I’m not the only one.I contacted their customer service and they had the audacity to insist to me that the game remains random, which is a bare faced lie. They then gave me the email address of their manager, who I tried to contact about the issue, but never heard back from.They are liars, playing a fradulent game, punishing me for having the audacity to actually win on a game.

It says “Processing Completed” but never received my winnings/withdrawal. It’s terrible, wouldn’t play with this site ever again.

I’m down money on this site and they limit my bets to 20%. They also took away all my promotions. What a joke. Try using another site!

I never get my winnings from them. I tried to contact their customer service but end up nothing. Horrible.

I submitted a withdrawal request FIVE DAYS AGO. I get an email saying we can’t process your withdrawal because of processing restrictions. So I change my withdrawal preferences and after a couple of days still nothing. I tried to talk to someone in live chat but after TWO HOURS nobody reached out to me or tried to help me. I have tried emailing but still nobody has responded to me. When will you guys give me my withdrawal?Please can somebody give me an update on my withdrawal request? I just want someone to help me.

Betway used to be alright. Don’t really gamble now don’t have the time but they keep sending me this offer. Log In to claim a £10 FREE BET – no deposit required.*Use the Free Bet on whatever Sport you like – you’ll have 7 days until it expires.All the time but the free bet is never in the account and you can’t get anywhere with the chat which is horrendous.Your reviews are disgustingly bad, what has happened to you guys, sort yourself out.

this is my first time using this app, ive won a big amount by pure luck i assume. but my payment is still “processing” i am quite worried as i used my own money. i want to know if i’ll receive my payout.

Customer Service is TERRIBLE! I’ve chatted with several people over the last few days and all of them have been incapable of professionally handling my issues and were quick to dismiss me from chat. I have been playing on this site for YEARS with no issues and using the same device. All of a sudden after requesting a withdrawal, i get an email stating they closed my account because of a geolocation issue or a VPN use or something of that nature. I have no idea what they are referring to and have no reason to use such as I live in a state they operate. Ive heard from several people that this is a tactic used not to pay out and invalidate your winnings. I submitted the documents requested to prove my identity and have not heard anything. I am currently locked out of the account and have no way to see the status of my withdrawal or remove my Card and Banking information from their site. Any callback request has been followed up immediately with an email saying we tried to call you back but haven’t been able to reach you within a minute of requesting it. How is that possible? Considering all of the negative reviews it seems that this is not an isolated incident. My next step may have to be my state gaming control board as this seems to be a widespread issue.

Made a large withdrawl on the 7th of December, and one month later, its still showing as “processing”.I have tried:Live chat – told me its been escalated to the payments teamComplaints email (UKManager@betway) – I emailed them on 16 days ago on the 20th December, and still no replyLive chat again – told me its now with the operations team and will not give me any further infoIt’s been radio silence from Betway. I’m doing all the chasing and they are giving me zero information when I finally get through to live chat – Only that “we will let you know when we know something”.Holding a simple withdrawl for 1 month is absolutely disgusting – this is peoples money you are playing with.I want to take this to a third party dispute resolution service, but because Betway have not responded to my complaints email, I have no reference number for my complaint.I asked live chat to get someone to even just reply to my email so that I know its been received, they say they cant do that.I asked live chat to provide me with a reference number for my case, they say they cant do that.So now, 1 month later and still waiting for my £700, I am left with no choice but to to take the evidence I have gathered so far (chat transcripts, my attempts to email, screenshots of my account) to a dispute resolution service and try to push that way.If Betway get back to me before I do this and resolve this for me, I will update this review.For now though, I would advise people to find somewhere else to play, because from my experience so far, if you like to deposit money, then Betway is for you. Want to withdraw your winnings though? Good luck.

Would give zero stars if I could. I deposited money on the 23rd dec and it wasn’t credited to my account. Over 2 weeks later still waiting. Numerous messages to customer service who are shocking bad and unhelpful. Same copy and paste answers. Avoid at all cost and as soon as I have my money back, I am closing my account.

I didn’t want to give it any stars but I had no choice in order to write this review. I am slightly concerned first of all is this site legit?Something is off with this Casino site I can’t put my finger on it. Where do I start? First of all I get can’t always win neither is a bonus guaranteed before you inform me of this.I have used many betting sites trying to find the best one and this one is by far the worse I have ever come and across. Lucky if you ever get a bonus as I think they may be stopping that somehow? Also if you do get a bonus the RRP can’t be legitimate the payouts are extremely low and very unfair and under your stake and wagering. Although I played for fun and deposited a very high amount I didn’t win once neither did I have a chance or get any value for my money. I tested this theory as my favourite site I use, I got a lot of bonus’s and they are very consistent especially with the option I click on to improve my chances of getting a bonus. I have the same favourite games I always play and for the amount I deposited I would expect somesort of enjoyment and a payout at some point. No value for my money at all. This one bonus was no existence throughout play for hours and when I finally got the bonus was a very low payout where other sites are fair and I get the value for my money. I wont be using this site again and will be raising a complaint for this to be looked in to. Please do not use this site it can’t be trusted. Don’t waste your money.

The biggest mistake you will ever make in your life is dealing with Betway. Deposits are taken in a split second but you will literally be on your knees to withdraw your money ( funny thing is you still wont get it) Rubbish company! Scammers!!

Shocking site for slots , anyone who knows big bass splash will get this but 20 minutes of playing time I got no bonus and only 1 re spin 😮😮 not very good I’ll be sticking to sky and paddy thought I’d try this one out but stay away

They are depositing people with small winnings, when it comes to big wins, they don’t deposit shit, if you can’t gamble elsewhere, its still very much recommended to stay away from this. Its just for your own safety and well being, stay safe guys, they are messing with slot rtps and giving excuses on big summs of money.
