BOYCOTT BODOG POKER
THEY ARE CROOKS! Over a year ago I opened a bodog account, several months went by and I lost the sign in info so I created a different account. Security bells and whistles went off and they disabled both accounts. Fair enough. We went through a long conversation on the phone and I got them to refund my money. A year later, BOTH accounts are disabled, so I wanted to give them another try. I open a new account, thinking it will be ok because the previous 2 accounts were already closed. They disabled me, in the middle of a tournament, and WILL NOT REFUND my money. All I want is the remainder of my deposit refunded to the bank account that I just registered. They say I need to fax them proof of my identity which includes a bank statement, a voided check, and personal ID with a picture on it. Why was it SO simple to put money in (took less than 60 seconds) but to get them to refund my money it is going to take days if not weeks?
It’s a pain in the ass, it’s a scam to disuade me from requesting my money back because it’s such a pain in the ass.
I hope many people see this and decide to choose another poker site. I highly recommend Titan Poker.

Wow im glad I found this site. My bodog account has been disabled and it really fkn sux.
I wasnt aware of the rules and had my brother and sister make accounts and play poker games from my computer. I also played fropm their computer at times. And I had a flatmate that played on Bodog and a couple of friends that have used my computer to access their accounts (i dont have contact with the flatmate and 1 of the friends anymore).
So my account was disabled because of similar account information or some shit. They asked me to send ID, so I did (and it wasnt fkn easy they kept giving me fax numbers I couldnt get thru to). And then I get an email saying that my account is now pending on all these all the other people sending in thier ID. Now why the Fuck would people who only played play money poker tables; and to be honest, dont even really like it that much, bother to even send their fukn ID in. Its a load of shit.
Now the worst thing is that they say I have no right to the money I had on my account until its re-enabled. What the Fuck!!
I had $500 on there that I built from scratch. Never payed a deposit (It all started with a win in a freeroll). And they have told me the money that i won is pending on other people sending in ID, and im absoluley sure at least a couple of them wont bother. And that i have no right to that money.
What a fkn load of shit!!!! Any one out there got any advice. Bodog fkn sux!!!
