DK Horse Racing & Betting Reviews

by 3030Mik30

My experience, possible yours is different:

I never received the deposit bonus after playing through 2x my deposit. The terms for the bonus seemed to clearly state a wagering period with a window of longer than 7 days. During the promotional period, the progress tracker did not work properly (but the rest of DKHorseRacingBetting seemed to be just fine).

When text chatting with support on the confusion, they reassured me that the tracker is broken, but a bonus will still be added to my account based on play though. After the end date in the terms, they then state the wagers must be within 7 days (this was not stated or brought up by support prior to the end date of the promotion listed in the terms.)

Maybe I am just misunderstand the terms, but feel pretty strongly this read something different than what support stated. I didn’t find the terms to be confusing, just not in alignment with what support had claimed. In any case, based on my experience, I believe there is an intentional goal of misleading users to believe they are wagering toward a promotional bonus they don’t plan to distribute. DK horse would’t be my top recommendation for a horse racing app.

It is incredibly unintuitive to withdraw your money. As someone inexperienced with horse racing I think it should be as transparent as possible to withdraw your money from something like this. It’s confusing, there’s no assistance with DKHorseRacingBetting , and is not intuitive.

As mentioned with many other users I was never given my bonus from just joining DKHorseRacingBetting . Unlike their Sportsbook app this they just created and you can tell they are miles behind other apps out there for horse betting. It’s actually really sad for how great they do at there Sportsbook app. Misleading so many people with fine print in order not to pay out the sign up bonus really hurt DKHorseRacingBetting and I’m sure have many like me that will use other options for this.

When setting up my initial deposit, I hit the wrong button and accidentally deposited the wrong amount (impacting my anticipated sign up bonus). When I contacted support to correct it, they said there was nothing the could do about it. I requested a cancellation of the deposit. They said I could withdraw online after the deposit was fully funded from the bank. So instead of a cancellation, I now must wait several days to submit my withdraw request and then wait several days to get my money back. Guess I’ll stick with TVG and Twin Spires for my horse betting.

Before depositing into DKHorseRacingBetting for the Kentucky derby, I checked the withdrawal methods. Saw that I was able to withdrawal my funds through PayPal, debit, or check by mail. Created the account, and after winning on the derby, I went to withdrawal my funds. The only method offered on DKHorseRacingBetting was check by mail. Tried contacting DK horse support multiple times, and it’s as if they don’t have any agents working. Now I have to settle paying $23 and a $5 processing fee to get my check within a reasonable amount of time. There are much better horse racing apps out there. Especially those with much easier and faster withdrawal options. Not to mention I never got my bonus after playing 2x through.

I am incredibly annoyed by DKHorseRacingBetting, and DraftKings in general. I deposited 250$ for the up to 250$ match promo. I never received the promo, so I decided I’ll just cut my loses and move on. Went to withdraw MY 250$ now 249$ just to find out that it’s only in check form. Received a email saying “it is against company policy to deposit money and withdrawal it without betting but out of courtesy they’ll approve it”.

Three weeks go by and nothing in the mail for my check I double checked my bank account sure enough never received my money that I deposited in that account I follow up with the email asking about it, and now they want my drivers license, social security card, and proof of residence. I will no longer be placing bets with DraftKings and I highly suggest you don’t either. As of rn I still have not received my money and I’m starting to suspect their not going to give me my money back.

If you are looking to find an app that gives you the most difficult time withdrawing money you came to the right place. It takes 3-5 business days for your EZ money account to be verified with DKHorseRacingBetting . If you win any money or even want to withdraw your initial deposit that takes another 3-5 business days to be withdrawn into your account. For this reason alone, at least for me, it’s not even worth continuing to bet on DKHorseRacingBetting. I will be using another app for all my future bets and am writing this so no one else goes through the same. Be well, and remember DKHorseRacingBetting actually blows. The only benefit they do have is that their customer service answers quickly, but this is still getting one star. Do yourself a favor to save some stress, don’t download this dumb app they like to play games and make you wait for your money so that you continue to bet it away.

by BCSKATER

Started winning and then I couldn’t access DKHorseRacingBetting . It said under scheduled maintenance or I’m in a location that doesn’t get dK horse (which is not true)
What’s up can’t talk to suport…
Never thought this would happen …

by Thisisridiculous33

Theres a $5 “Credit Card Fee” to deposit money into your account. Im already probably going to lose whatever i would decide to bet. Just take my money, no need to be greedy about it. No thanks.

by NRhorse

The worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. I hit a bet yesterday that they never paid out. The result of the race shows my horse as the winner. They keep saying the wager was canceled but I never canceled the wager. Get a different app than DK Horse. They will cancel your wager to keep from having to pay you the winnings. Scam artists with a terrible customer service team. Took 18 hours to get a response from an agent in the chat, just to be lied to.

by IPhone User012345

They will not allow you win any substantial amount of money and will limit your account if they view you as any risk of making money on their site.

by DatPlayboi

The fact that DK even associated themselves with this garbage is mind blowing. Clunky and difficult to navigate. Trying to find a normal horse bet takes about 10 clicks. FanDuel is much easier to use. Didn’t get my signup credit either. A true zero star app.

by RickeyBobby412

Cant talk to support for anything and its the biggest racing day of the year. DK was not even close to being prepared. Three hours later still no deposit release so I guess they trapped me into betting races after the Derby that I couldnt care less about. Still never voided scratched horse after two hours. Cannot bet anything. 356 ppl in line for support. Absolute disaster.

by Ice Boi Tay😎

As much as I love DraftKings sportsbook, DK horse betting is so bland. FanDuel gives you so many stats and oversight of the horses and their previous performances. DK horse for the one time i played, it felt like i was just guessing which horse to win based on the odds when at times (those who bet on horses before knows) the odds don’t mean anything.

by Jpsideasformergedragons

Rude customer service, app is pretty crappy! Bet on a horse last night, doesn’t show what you will win in the bet, come back the next morning, the money is gone but check my past bets and it doesn’t show a result, says I haven’t made a bet?! Whaaat? Atleast show me that I won or lost!

by TravisMey

DKHorseRacingBetting is fine, but be aware of deceptive marketing practices. The expiration of certain bonuses that is displayed DOES not match the terms, nor does it accurately show when the promo has ended. Needless to say I have no interest in giving my business to a company so clearly trying to trick its customers

by Rorymichaelroy

Deposited $250 with intentions of betting through to receive the bonus. I had a change of heart after the 4 day processing period and decided I needed the money.. after trying to withdrawal, I receive an email from DK horse saying “suspicious withdrawal activity after not wagering” and they locked my account! So now my money is stuck in a locked account..

by Cameron The

Incredibly barebones app in terms of features. For example, you have to manually log in every time. Also don’t sign up based on promos, the ad compared to the fine print is very deceiving. Finally if you want to deposit money with out a fee you have to wait 4 days to be able to withdraw anything if you deposit using a bank account, which is the only way they won’t charge a deposit fee. Fan duel on the other hand lets you deposit from a card for free and withdraw instantly. I never even made a bet on DKHorseRacingBetting and it already has been infuriating. Unless you are a masochist you will want use twin spires or fan duel instead.

by Wineo45

Was expecting a DK experience but DKHorseRacingBetting is awful- must have been rushed for the derby. Terrible user input experience- and now I put money in and can only get it via check?! Withdrawal appears to be broken as well

by JRPlienis

Believe it or not this comes after winning a sizable amount this past weekend. This site makes as hard as possible to withdraw your money. They only offer checks unless you use PayPal or some other services I couldn’t even find when I tried to Google it. I finally figured out how to use PayPal on this site as the site wouldn’t accept my initial attempts to make a PayPal deposit. I only made a PayPal deposit because you could only make a withdraw with PayPal if you made a deposit through PayPal. The site charges $5 service charges to deposit your money. Then charges service fees to withdraw your money. All other DK sites are linked except for this one. This site is just plain awful and DK should reconsider partnering with this garbage site!!! I will never use this site again. TVG IS SO MUCH BETTER!!!

I recently deposited $100 for the Preakness to try out the apps, and won a few hundred dollars. Went to withdraw the money and assumed it would instantaneous like DK. Wrong, they said the withdrawal could take up to 72 hours to process. Go with a different app that won’t sit on your money for 3 days. 👎🏻

by Noke32

Simply put, this is the worst sportsbook app I’ve ever seen.

Don’t put money on here, the user interface is terrible, the betting process is clunky and is unclear what you are betting on, they only mail payouts but will wirelessly take your money.

0/5 stars, I want my money back and strongly encourage everyone else to not waste theirs here.

by Hockeyburtman

Do not use DKHorseRacingBetting. It forces you to withdrawal via check. Awful interface. Does not provide a similar experience to other DK products.

by ColoradoGeraldine

I download DKHorseRacingBetting, deposited MY money, then placed some bets. I won some and lost some, then tried to withdraw my balance. They restricted my account until I send them 3 forms of ID, a copy of my social security card, and 3 pieces of mail showing my current address. I think NOT, literally giving them everything one needs to steal my identity. They can take your money just fine but letting you withdraw winnings absolutely not. DO NOT PLCE BETS WITH THIS COMPANY.

I just started with this site today so I’m testing it out. I usually bed about anywhere from four to $700 a day so I was just checking it out. I’m on NYRA Bets but I’m having a problem here and I’m not very happy at all that you’ll just checking out and realize I’m putting in like just $20 to see they can also get used to it $30 you know bets and stuff and then when I made deposit each time I make a deposit you charge me five dollars, if that’s unacceptable and I will not give you my action please advise

by Utterly Disappoint

They charge a fee for all deposits. Plus your credit card will charge a cash advance free. The only initial option for cashing out is they will mail you a check. Pass…. DraftKings you can do better!

by Mlwollman

I am a big DraftKings fan, as I live in Boston and was excited for a horse racing app, since my fav. App TVG was acquired by FanDuel (boo!)

That being said TVG offers any easier to use interface such as favoriting tracks that are off season, more compact interface so you easily see the race info, a banner with high value pools/ races. Your previous winners highlighted, a better selection of handicapping info and sort. I hope to see lots of feature enhancements in the near future.

I am willing to go to focus groups at DK HQ or provide more specific feedback outside DKHorseRacingBetting Store forum.

by Diddykong025

Just not a great optimized app yet. DK should have held off advertising but i get the horse race season money on the line. Limited withdraw options, fees for PayPal use is a joke. Avoid. I swapped back to TVG immediately. UI so much better

by Jaybee7414x

Not sure why Louisiana needs another horse racing app. If you’re competing with DRF Racing, TVG, and Twin Spires you might want to be more innovative or at least make the customer’s access to his balance readily available ALL THE TIME!!

by WVU419

I personally haven’t tried DK Horse Racing App yet even though I use DK everyday with their SportsBook and Casino Apps (among with Dozens of other Apps)!

I gave it 3 Stars because after reading everyone’s negative comments, I am very very hesitant to place money on the Racing App.

Hey DK, listen to everyone’s comments and get this Rectified or you’re going to lose a lot of money because we will use all the other Apps instead.

by ITS OK 22

The downfall on DKHorseRacingBetting is that there is no info about the horses speed, class and pace. Kind of disappointing.

by Reddedrevolvr

I like DKHorseRacingBetting but to wait 24-96 hrs for withdrawal is crazy. Fortunately the first withdrawal only took 2 days now I signed in with my bank account instead of pay pal and I can’t cash out until they verify my account like having funds in it isn’t enough.. I will change review when fixes are made to this all the compitition can have it in your account in less than an hour.

by BruceA2020

A great service!

by Luckys4thAce

Like the look. Easy to navigate.

by Suffolk Fan

A well functioning app and you can access past performances. Worth setting up an account.

by Freehold Raceway

Clean and easy to use
Live feeds are great
Love it

by Spaceman Of Tennis

Fastest app when it comes to paying promotions, which is a nice change!!! Reliable & Quick Functionality!

by Tom B Ambassador

I didn’t think a horse betting app could be like this. The live video is exceptional and the payouts are immediate!

by Eagle504$

I have never bet on horses, now I am betting everyday and making money. I win and lose but I have been able to keep my original $40 investment as I learn.
