You see a message saying your bonus is pending or your free spins are not available. The most common cause is that the bonus code was entered after the deposit or that the deposit method does not qualify for the offer.
Missing bonus or free spins after a deposit
After you deposit, the bonus balance stays at zero or the free spins never appear on the bonus screen.
- The bet365 bonus code was typed after the deposit was sent.
- The deposit amount is below the minimum needed for the welcome offer.
- The payment method used is excluded from bonus eligibility.
- You have already claimed a welcome bonus on the same account.
- The bonus was credited to a different wallet (casino vs. sports).
- Open the bonus section of your account and check whether the offer is listed as active or expired.
- Confirm that you entered the bet365 bonus code in the code field before sending the deposit.
- Check that the deposit amount meets the minimum for the welcome offer.
- Review the payment method used; some methods do not trigger bonuses.
- If you used a debit or credit card, try a different deposit method that is known to qualify.
- Look for a separate casino wallet; bonuses sometimes credit there, not to your main balance.
- Log out and log back in to refresh the bonus display.
- Clear your browser cache or try a private window if the bonus still does not show.
- Make a small test deposit with the same code after confirming the first deposit was processed.
- Wait a short while; some bonuses are applied manually after the deposit is reviewed.
- If the bonus remains missing after all checks, note the deposit reference and contact support.
Contact support only after you have confirmed the code was entered correctly and the deposit method is eligible; include the deposit reference and a screenshot of the bonus screen.
Account locked after failed login attempts
You see an error saying your account is locked or that the password is incorrect, even though you are sure you typed it right.
- Too many wrong password entries triggered a temporary lock.
- You are using an old password that was changed on another device.
- Caps Lock or a keyboard layout difference changed the characters you typed.
- The account is locked because of a security review.
- You are trying to log in on a network that blocks the site.
- Wait a few minutes; temporary locks often lift on their own.
- Type your password into a plain text editor first to check for typos, then paste it into the login field.
- Make sure Caps Lock is off and your keyboard is set to the correct language.
- Try logging in from a different browser or a private window.
- If you use a password manager, confirm it has the latest saved password.
- Use the “Forgot password” link to reset your password if you are unsure of the current one.
- Follow the reset email instructions fully; the link can expire.
- Check your email spam folder if the reset message does not arrive.
- If you have two-factor authentication enabled, ensure the code is current and not reused.
- Try a different network, such as mobile data instead of Wi-Fi, to rule out a block.
- If you see a message about a security lock, do not keep trying; each attempt can extend the lock.
- If the account remains locked after a successful password reset, contact support with your username and the error message.
Contact support when the lock message mentions a security review or when a password reset does not restore access.
Identity verification stuck or documents rejected
Your KYC status shows pending, or you receive a notice that your uploaded document is not accepted.
If you play via bet365 mobile, the same verification rules apply as on desktop; the phone browser upload works the same way. For help with the bet365 australia bonus code or other account issues, casino Bet365 provides guidance, but verification still depends on clear documents.
- The document photo is blurred, cropped or has glare.
- The document is expired or the details do not match your registered name.
- You uploaded a copy instead of a photo of the original.
- The proof of address is older than the allowed period.
- A selfie was taken with a filter or in low light.
- Open the verification section in your account and note which document is marked as rejected.
- Take a new photo in daylight with the whole document visible and no glare.
- Ensure all four corners of the document are inside the frame.
- Check that the name and address on the document exactly match your account details.
- Use a recent utility bill or bank statement for proof of address, not a screenshot.
- For a selfie, remove glasses and hats, and use a plain background.
- Upload files in the accepted format (JPG or PNG are common; avoid PDF unless asked).
- Keep each file under the size limit shown in the upload field.
- Submit one document at a time and wait for the status to change before uploading the next.
- If the upload fails, try a different browser or the phone browser on your mobile device.
- Do not send documents by email unless support explicitly asks you to.
- If the status stays pending for a long time or a document is rejected twice, contact support with the reference number.
Contact support when a document is rejected without a clear reason or when the verification status has not changed after several attempts.
Deposit or withdrawal declined due to limits
You see a message that your deposit or withdrawal exceeds a limit or is not allowed at this time.
- The amount is above the per-transaction limit for your account.
- You have reached a daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit.
- A withdrawal limit applies to your account level or payment method.
- You set a self-imposed limit earlier and forgot about it.
- The payment provider’s own limit is lower than the casino’s limit.
- Check the amount against the limit shown in the cashier before you submit.
- Try a smaller amount to see if the decline is due to the size of the transaction.
- Review any responsible gambling limits you set in your account settings.
- Wait until the next day or week if a rolling limit has been reached.
- Use a different payment method that may have a higher limit.
- For withdrawals, ensure your account is fully verified; limits often apply until KYC is complete.
- Split a large withdrawal into smaller requests if partial withdrawals are allowed.
- Check that your payment method supports the currency and country of your account.
- Remove any pending bonus wagering requirements that restrict withdrawal amounts.
- If you use bet365 mobile, confirm the phone browser is not auto-filling an old amount.
- If the decline message persists with a smaller amount and a different method, contact support with the error code.
Contact support when you cannot identify which limit caused the decline or when you need a limit raised for a legitimate reason.
Keep your account details, documents and bonus codes consistent from the first deposit; most of these problems start with a small mismatch that is easy to avoid.
