Draftkings Account Locked

[danielvan12]

This is my first day doing matched betting and I was following all the steps for the welcome bonuses. Long story short my bank falsely detected a Draftkings deposit as fraudulent and that seems to have caused Draftkings to lock my account. I managed to email a "player advocate" and he said they would review my account but that could take a few days. I have already placed my bonus bets on Draftkings and have some of my own money on a Fanduel bet against that one. I was just wondering if anyone has any advice: should I keep all my bets as is? should I remove my Fanduel bet? I just don't want to lose money.

as long as the bet was placed they will not return the bet in anyway. I have had that happen to myself as well and was told if the bet was placed it stays in place during. I had no troubles at all. It was just a scary moment.

@danielvan12 as @toddscott says, if the bets are still open on draftkings you can leave as it is, since you will be able to withdraw any possible profit when they finish verifying your account.

Thank you both; I'm still emailing back and forth with Draftkings about unlocking my account (which is far more frustrating than I'd prefer) but everything seems like it will work out.

learn to breath. It has happened to me 2 times now and has worked out everytime. Just learn to be patient and listen to directions.
