What if the cash out option is not functioning at the moment?

[Lida93]

Glitches happens and there's no particular timing for it but in this story as the OP has explained it, how do we know the seizure it's truly a problem from the casino and not from your phone or internet. When this things happen it only takes a similar complains from many different customers of the casino about same problem and same time, then the casino won't be able to ignore that such was actually from their end instead and they can take responsibility from there.

The cashout option was not there some years ago, it was among some of the improvements made to give people fair chance at making profits or cutting down their losses. I remember those days we gamble in physical shops, there was no cashnout option and even when we moved to online betting, it was not there but with time the need arose and was included. If the cashout option is not avaliable, people will just resort to the old way of gambling which is to allow everything to be settled and whatever rhe outcome is should be accepted.

I am not a fan of using cash out option when gambling on sport, so I don't think that I will give a fuck about it when my game is still going on. I know that If I am cashing out my bet anyhow, or in the middle of my bet, I will never win big when gambling, so it's because of that I would rather watch my bet to spoil, than to be cashing out small money that may deprive me of that big winning when the opportunity finally comes.

I made this decision two years ago when I cashed out 37k Nigerian naira, but all of the game later work out as planned which I would have won 973k Nigerian naira, so since then, I don't care about the cash out option.

I want to know, if it was you would you blamed the gambling site or you are to be blamed after knowing that the gambling refused you to cash out and at same time you were given the cash out option and you tried it doesn't works out. Would you have to blame the casino or you would be held responsible for this?

Those live events are being monitored from the beginning of the events till the end and those who are in charge of live events do make changes almost every time and it even get worse in a case where you are being giving a huge cash out amount, they will always try to frustrate you when you want to cash out the bet and sometimes before you know it the event has already started going against how you predicted it and as such the cash out amount will also reduce. Casinos are very tricky with live events, at any slightest changes they will make the cash out amount unavailable.

Betting control is always in our hands, I don't blame the casino for not allowing cash out in advance, the market situation may not allow you to do it, the market also knows what we think, when we see anything about the team we choose, usually in the 30 minutes before the match the market options always show changes, because there are many people who want to bet and want to change their bets, usually cashout is still available in the middle of a draw match, but if it still doesn't work I have to blame the casino

The market always knows what we think? How's that possible, it might seem that way to you but that's not actually the case. Just because the bookmakers are able to counter gamblers before they make a particular move doesn't really mean that they are reading their minds or being telepathic. One of the major reason why cashout options aren't available at a particular moment is due to odd changes that happens when there is a change in either the line up or other things about the match.

From the title I know most of you would definitely understand what I meant especially for those that like betting on sports betting.
I was gambling and those were live running, at some point I lose hope, like falling out of fate that the game won't run as expected, thus a cash out option was given to me but, when the games were running I tried everything possible to make sure I cashed out without losing everything entirely. When I tried to click the option, it was active but freeze I do not know if the error was from the gambling site or my network but I believe it wasn't from my network as at that point I minimized my screen tried other site and it was Open then I had to believe that the error was from the gambling site instead of me.

I want to know, if it was you would you blamed the gambling site or you are to be blamed after knowing that the gambling refused you to cash out and at same time you were given the cash out option and you tried it doesn't works out. Would you have to blame the casino or you would be held responsible for this?

Whether you blame the casino or hold/assume yourself responsible for the cash out option not working at the time you needed to make use of it doesn't change anything, if you ended up loosing the bet as well as your money, then the money is gone, blaming the casino for the lose or yourself wont bring back the money, so its better to simply move on.
But if you really need to put the blame of the cash out not working on something or someone, maybe this will make you feel better, then you should blame yourself rather than the casino, and the reason is, the option of a cash out comes and goes during a match depending on how odds change, there is the possibility that during that time you needed to use the cash out, it was no longer available but your network was slow, so as a result, it failed to update properly, and you not realizing the possibility of this simply means the blame is on you.

[Ojima-ojo]

Some times even when your cash out balance is growing because the match is going according to your prediction, you may have some none displays cash out because the bookmakers is still calculating the odds and want to balance the market in a uniform active game's, some times what you just need to do is to refresh your game page and you will see your current available balance being displayed.
Is not that the computing is wrong or the bookmakers want to delay your settlements.

[fredericktaylor]

What happened to you is really bad but you need to make sure that you are gambling according to the correct rules of the casino and if there is any wrong action taken on your part. If you are fair from your side and have clear evidence then you can take maximum action against the casino for facing this situation. You can face many unexpected events through gambling so be aware of the risks and it is wise to decide to gamble with money that you can afford to lose.

[Proty]

 I don't think it was actually an error. At that point the gambling site might have suspended the cash out option temporarily due to certain changes they might have observed. I had similar experience in staking live games sometimes the casino will lock some of the odds temporarily, especially the one they knew that the probability of success is very high. At the point you clicked the cash out option maybe it wasn't available or the casino might have lock it because the option wasn't going to favour them in any way.

Some bookies are found of doing that. They will display the cash out but when trying to execute the action its doesn’t support it. This what happens mostly in a day that the network is a bit stressed by traffic mostly on Saturdays and Sundays. But it also depends on the particular bookie you are using. I’ve experienced that problem many time and I blame the bookies mostly if they don’t allow the actions to execute even when all the games in my accumulation are live and no odd is suspended from cash out at that moment.
I use to feel it’s a way to trap people to lose funds when they feel like it’s going to be a bad weekend for the book makers. Thats not really a fair thing they are doing to be honest if it’s deliberate.

But we are not in the old days anymore, so that means the OP can actually open a ticket and find out what actually happens with the cashout option during that time.

My guess is that, the OP may have waited for several minutes or seconds before deciding to click on the cash out button. There may have been some rapid changes on the cash out options and the sportsbook may have closed it if there are some unexpected significant changes while the game was running or maybe a lot of people may have opt to cash out.
There could be several reasons for that, but I think it's best to bring it up to the sportsbook.

When the time you have given the option to cash out, did you click it immediately?
You stated that the game didn't come as you have expected, it means your bet was already in a disadvantage here. This can be the possible reason why your cash out option have failed even after you clicked it. It can happen because the odds have changed very quick against your bet that the cash out offer you received have become unavailable that it didn't immediately reflect on your screen. Another possibility is that the bookmaker temporarily suspended the cash out option because the match you placed your bet was approaching the critical moment or have come close nearing the end of the game.

[Hispo]

Bookies and casinos are not stupid, though.
They are aware there is always a possibility of their bettors and gamblers not being able to crash out because of several reasons, either because a internal error or because the ping/internet connection is not stable enough.
So I am pretty sure there have gotten themselves covered on their terms of service and they have stated on their ToS that they do not take direct responsibility for those glitches and bugs which happen to prevent people from cashing out when they want.

Even if the casino is at fault, it would be very difficult to get them accountable, at best, they could offer some balance or part of the balance as a formal apology for the inconvenience, but you would be pretty much at their mercy, since you accepted their terms of services from the very beginning.

[ejikeme24]

I have experienced that several times, of Course if you experience something like that you have the right to blame the casino. Sometimes I feel most casino do it intentional just like the previous experience I had regarding this particular issues we are treating here, in that experience I'm sure that the casino purposely did that so as I can't make cash out because they knew  I would definitely make a Cash out if I'm giving the opportunity. Although their are some options you would bet on the cash out option will be unavailable until the match ends and it is not fair like that a casino is supposed to make Cash out option available at all time whether in wining or in Lossing.

Frozen cashout transaction does not mean it is just any routine technical issue. Just before any major event occur, bookmaker deliberately hold button so that their algorithm can set new, secure price. Like- in situation such as any potential goal, VAR check, red card, or dangerous attacking play in football, such freeze can last anywhere from few second to minute. And button you see on your screen is often just cached version of previous rate.

You can blame casino if that button become unresponsive without any game-altering event occurring and many user encounter same issue at exact same moment. If that is not the case then it might be matter of that casino’s risk management policy.

If you found such option come up again next time then take screenshot asap. Before your window closes try refreshing it to see if everything get fixed. If not then you could open support ticket with your bet ID and screenshot and see what casino's side say.

I understand your point, so in this case I will assume that there was no error on the casino site, the error was that you may have tried to click the cash out option in a position where the cash out time may have expired. Although it was showing active there, it was no longer working after clicking.
And if there is no error from you then of course it should have worked. However, the casino authorities give an option to cash out from the beginning to the end of the game but in that case the amount of cash out is gradually reduced. So I think in this case maybe there may be some error due to excessive traffic congestion.
But what happened in your case is that if your device is running smoothly, then it must have been some kind of jam problem of the casino authorities. But no matter how much you blame the casino for this the casino authorities will not get anything out of it. So maybe even if such a problem occurs on your device, maybe all other devices or all other accounts are working properly.

I am not trying to take sides with these casinos but you should also know that these casinos are also in business just as you the playing is and most of these cash outs are automated and time trigger sensitive which means that, the cash out option needs to be triggered for it to come up or go off and that is why if you want to cash out a game, then you should be sure about and just simply wait for the option to come up and then you click on it immediately and not waiting for it to be triggered off.
Don't blame the casino but learn how to gamble with what you can afford to lose so that when things like these happens again, you wouldn't be so bothered.

I never had any issue with withdrawals from casinos, maybe because I don't have a huge withdrawal amount, but mostly what I heard with similar cases is that it happens to other players who withdraw a large amount that triggers withdrawal to pause or freeze.

You shouldn't be the one responsible for this, and never ever contact outside to fix this issue; you might end up being hit by scammers.
If you are having this today or in the future, always report that issue to the support. It might need something like KYC verification. Once you are done with that and there is no response at all from the casino, then start a thread immediately in the scam section so that other people are aware of that casino.

Please I want to get something clear, how come did you attempt to cash out from a game you played in site "A" and because the the cash out button did not respond and you tried a different site "B" and it worked.
Did you split the ticket on the sites?

Don't also be so mad at the bookies like that because, it could be that before you hits the cash out button that the market has changed and you know if that is true you won't be able to cash out again.

Maybe it could be your network problems but same time we don't have to trust the bookies or dealers entirely because they are all in for business.

[IjawMan]

I have had an experience with the cash out in this kind of condition when I tried clicking the cash out botton when the time has expired and it was no more active but still a stuck green there. It could have been network error or from the casino I guess. With just a turn off and on the internet and refresh the site it all got back to working fine but the cash out was not active cause by then the bet was not going in my favour again.
