Unexplained Account Blockage – Request for Immediate Resolution
My *** has been locked without a clear explanation, despite having active bets and funds in my ***. I am disappointed by how quickly it is to lock an ***, while resolving customer issues takes so long. I've been sending emails, making phone calls, Dm's to both Facebook page and Twitter and still no help! I'm exhausted!! ***

Won't receive my withdrawal if I don't have a different device to login.
So since I made a withdrawal on Sunday, until today it hasn't processed so now they're telling me I must login in a different device that hasn't been registered on Betway for security reasons, so now my argue is where will I get a different device to login so that I can receive my withdrawal?

I am submitting this review regarding my Betway *** and my pending withdrawal.
The whole last week i was withdrawing, tracking and reversing thinking maybe it's network problem. Then i speak to an agent or bot i don't know.On Sunday, 18 October 2026, my *** was placed under a standard 48-hour review. I waited for the 48-hour period to lapse as requested. On Tuesday, 20 October 2026, I was instructed by live support to perform a password reset and a facial liveness verification, which I completed immediately. Despite completing every requested security check and having fully verified FICA documents, live chat agents keep resetting the 48-hour review clock over and over again without providing any specific explanation or cause. Continuously restarting review periods after security checks are completed is an unreasonable withholding of customer funds. I require my *** review to be finalized immediately.

Customer service
The lady that called me(Phophi) was great, she assisted right away however I do feel like I need to be compensated for the inconvenience and frustration caused as I could not get through to customer service for weeks. Countless chats, calls and *** with no reply.
