Smarkets with holding my funds

It turned out that Smarkets wanted to confirm my account. Which I had no knowledge of. No one had emailed me to say this, it was just a random check to supposedly to check id. So I put £100 unaware of any problems. Why did they let me put funds in when I could not bet or even withdraw funds. after a long hiatus and tried to lay a bet but wasn't allowed. If I was unable to use account or checks needed doing even thought it had been did before and cards are obviously in my name. They entrapped me by letting me add funds which is a lot of my betting funds which is currently held by you as a blackmail plot. I went to withdraw. Again no message about anything. I waited the full five days to get my refund as I could not place a bet. I was unaware of any problem or made aware during deposit, trying to bet or while trying to withdraw. It was only after the full five days for a withdrawal, that I contacted chat asking where my money was and while he was checking. I asked was there any problem with my account due to trying to place a lay bet but the confirm and bet button didn't light up. I was told there was block on my account and need to confirm if again and show deposit to them came from my bank account. Still they gladly hold onto my £100 to which they are holding and won't return and until I supply abc to which I have done and it's been 48hrs and I still haven't heard from them.
They seem to be using there power and size to pick on the little guy. I had nothing from them and it must be 10-12 days trying to get funds out which I can't get and haven't heard back from them. On this basis I'm finding them to be trying to bully me and dragging their feet. They only need to look at three pictures that's it driving license, me holding driving license and proof of payment to them from my bank. Done but it's been three days and still not done, it's a shambles and a dammed shame, thought they were a trustworthy site.

Hi,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate your feedback.

Withdrawal limits are in place due to security and regulatory requirements, including closed-loop rules when using the same payment method. We understand this can be frustrating, and we’re continuously working to improve the process.

Liquidity can vary depending on the market, and we aim to make the platform as smooth as possible for all users. If you’d like us to review any outstanding issues, please contact our support team at support@smarkets.com

Disgusting Company - please avoid

Just started using them. Lost £600 on sports bets , usually £10 - £25 bets. They had no issues accepting deposits. Only winner was Young in the golf. Go to withdraw £380 winnings and says the maximum I can withdraw is £150. What a scam. They are just crooks. Anyone reading this please avoid them. Will probably get a response from customer services manager back on here saying usual rubbish about emailing someone. No way in the world is this a peer to peer exchange. It’s basically legalised theft. Thing is I’m a mug punter so would have probably kept on playing with them but they have just lost what would have been a decent customer. Just pay customers if they win ( still losing overall ). It’s not bloody hard.

Hi,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration.

The withdrawal limit you’re seeing is due to closed-loop restrictions, which apply when deposits and withdrawals are made using the same payment method for security and regulatory reasons. This is standard practice and not related to your betting results.

If you’d like us to review your case in more detail, please contact our support team at support@smarkets.com or via Live Chat so we can assist with accessing your funds.

SCAM

I placed bets and instead of receiving winnings I lost my money. When I tried to withdraw what was left of my balance the money left the account and more money left my bank. It’s a scam. The customer service replies once then ghosted me. I will be taking this up with the bank and the police.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the verification process.

From time to time, we’re required to request documents such as bank statements as part of our regulatory obligations. As a licensed operator, we must carry out identity and source-of-funds checks in line with anti-money laundering and responsible gambling requirements. These checks are not personal and are applied where necessary to ensure we meet our legal duties.

We fully understand that some customers may feel uncomfortable providing certain documents. However, if the requested verification information is not supplied, we may be unable to keep the account open, and closure can be the only available option in order to remain compliant.

We take data protection very seriously, and any documents provided are handled securely and in accordance with strict privacy regulations.

If you would like to discuss your specific case further, we encourage you to contact our support team directly via email at support@smarkets.com so we can review the matter with you.

RIDICULOUS DEPOST LIMITS - STOPS CUSTOMERS MAKING A PROFIT!

Smarkets KEEPS REFUSING TO INCREASE DEPOSIT LIMITS! Therefore, stopping customers, such as myself, from making more profit! Smarkets absurdly do not understand that the majority of their customers lay bets with them and match them at the bookmakers. So if they lose on Smarkets, they win at the bookmakers. EVERY MONTH SMARKETS IS STOPPING ME FROM MAKING AN EXTRA £50 TO £100 PROFIT PER MONTH.

CUSTOMERS SHOULD NOT BE PUNISHED BECAUSE OCCASIONALLY BETS DO WIN AT THE BOOKMAKERS!

UPDATE: 04/03/26 RESPONDING TO SMARKETS' REPLY:

"Deposit limits and account restrictions are not designed to prevent customers from making a profit." Yes, Smarkets is doing that. Smarkets is treating every customer the same and falsely thinking that every customer just places bets HOPING TO WIN!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you’re frustrated with your current deposit limits.

Deposit limits and account restrictions are not designed to prevent customers from making a profit. They are applied as part of our risk management, responsible gambling, and regulatory obligations. As a licensed operator, we’re required to monitor accounts and apply controls where appropriate to ensure compliance and the long-term sustainability of the platform.

We understand that different customers use exchanges in different ways, including hedging or matched betting strategies. However, limits are determined based on a range of factors and are reviewed periodically. Unfortunately, we’re not always able to increase them on request.

If you would like your account reviewed again, we encourage you to contact our support team directly so we can take another look and explain any applicable restrictions in more detail.

We appreciate your business and your feedback, and we’re always working to balance fairness, compliance, and the best possible experience for all customers.

Awful customer service and horrible…

Awful customer service and horrible communication.
For an exchange which should be the fairest to customers and markets, I've had bets on a game almost 2 weeks ago, still being looked into, up to 8 weeks it has said online.
My account was also suspended, and an email was only sent 3 hours later about it, followed by a huge request for documents, which I provided within an hour. It has now been 2 weeks, and they average a response every 5 working days and counting.
It is a joke that practically the only way they provide to contact is through a futile email, especially as being locked out gives even less hope to speak to someone.
What are the odds this review gets a faster response than an email back @smarkets?

Hello Max, we completely hear your frustration regarding the communication gap. We understand that being unable to access Live Chat while your account is suspended feels like a dead end. This is certainly not the 'fairer' experience we aim to provide.

The 8-week period you mentioned is our maximum regulatory window for complex disputes, but we always aim to resolve verification and settlement issues much faster than that. We can assure you that the issue will be investigated and our team will provide an update as soon as possible to proceed with your account, apologies for the inconvenience.

Hello Ray, we take allegations like this very seriously. Please understand that Smarkets is a regulated operator; we do not, and cannot, simply 'keep' user funds. If an account remains restricted for five months, it is typically due to a pending regulatory requirement or an outstanding request for specific documentation that has not yet been resolved.

We want to get this closed out for you. Since we cannot discuss specific account details on a public forum, please contact us at support@smarkets.com, so we can track down your case and provide a definitive explanation of what is required to move forward.

I’ve been a loyal customer for a while now, when I first made an account I was asked for documents which was no problem as they verified my account and documents within 24 hours. However, I recently won big on their sister site SBK and they have suspended my account, affecting my smarkets and sbk account. They asked for documents to verify my account which I provided instantly, that was a week ago and no update or response to any of my follow up emails.

Hi Felix, thank you for being a loyal customer with us. We sincerely apologise for the delay you're experiencing. We understand how frustrating it is to have your account suspended, especially after a significant win on SBK.

Because Smarkets and SBK share a platform, security reviews occasionally trigger on both accounts to ensure total fund safety. While our initial verifications are often fast, 'Source of Funds' or 'Enhanced Due Diligence' checks can take a bit longer for our team to process manually. Please rest assured your emails haven't been ignored, we are working through a queue. Could you please contact us with using your registered email address or ticket number? We'll make sure this is escalated to the right team immediately.

Absolutely awful service

Absolutely awful service - and customer service are no help whatsoever. Ended up having issues within minutes of opening the account, a long-winded conversation with customer service (who gave no information and answered none of my questions), and while they happily took my initial deposit they haven’t returned it. Avoid at all costs.

Hi Ian, Thank you for the feedback. We completely accept that not being able to access Live Chat while locked out is a frustrating experience, and we apologize for that loop.

Regarding the 3-day wait: When an account is suspended, it moves to our dedicated security team for a manual review. This team operates via email to ensure there is a paper trail for regulatory compliance. While this ensures fairness, it is unfortunately slower than our instant chat agents.

Please rest assured we have received your email. We are working through a queue, and a member of the team will send you a full update as soon as the review is complete.

I went back to using smarkets after not using it for a number of years. I was told my account was locked after I made a deposit. I was then told I needed to submit a copy of my licence and a picture of me holding it. Almost a week later they came back and said the pictures too small to upload it again, and they wanted a copy of my bank statement and bills. Who has paper bills these days ? I went back and asked for clarification of if they wanted one of the requested forms of ID or them all, as some I don’t have like council tax paper bill. I’m still waiting for them to come back to me after almost another week. I’m just going to use someone else now, they clearly don’t want my business. How does it take a week to respond to an email ?

Hi Kenneth, sorry to hear about this experience and the delays you’ve faced.

We are sometimes required to carry out additional verification checks. The documents requested are part of standard regulatory requirements, and we only ever need one suitable proof of address, not every document listed. Digital statements or bills are also accepted, not just physical copies.

That said, waiting a week for clarification isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, and we understand why this has been frustrating. We’d like to review this and help move it forward.

Please reply to your existing support ticket or contact us at support@smarkets.com with your account details so we can check what’s causing the delay and get you a clear answer.
