draftkings says my bet was rejected but stake stayed locked in pending balance

Placed a parlay late last night, got a message that the bet was rejected, but my account balance didn't update like it usually does. The stake is still hanging out in the pending section, so it's like my money is in limbo. I don't love leaving stuff in the hands of "pending" anything, especially not a site with as many flashy distractions as this one. Pretty much why I avoid most sports betting and stick to live dealer and slots - at least you know what happens right away.

Anyone else have this happen where your rejected bet money doesn't come back automatically? Did you have to chat support to get it or did it just sort itself out later?

Yep, and not just at kickoff, crypto casinos pull the same pending crap sooo often. Mine usually unlocked by morning, no support.
