Stiffed Apex player hopes for payment by Bet33
A former Apex Sportsbook (SBR rating F) player has written in after reading SBR's report on Jupiter Sportsbook (SBR rating D-) being added to the SBR sportsbook ratings guide. The player maintained a balance of $13,100 at the time Apex closed shop and walked away with players balances. Apex eventually financed a new venture, Bet33 (SBR rating D-). Bet33 opened at the mark of F, however after four years without a no-pay complaint the rating was reassessed. Bet33 has made promises to SBR that it would reopen Apex cases and use its new resources to pay players. Although Apex Sportsbook denied its solvency at the time it shutdown, Bet33 was founded in part by player debt.

BetDOS fails to keep payment timeline
On January 15th a BetDOS (SBR rating D+) player requested a $500 Moneygram payment, this was after being forced to rollover his balance once more after an alleged ownership change. BetDOS waffled in providing a clear payment timeline to the player, yet on the morning of Money February 8th assured him that due to his continued patience he would be sent a cash transfer that day with fees waived. The player spoke to GM Mark Roberts and CS manager 'Tina'. After noon passed live chat was taken offline. The player waited all night and no Western Union notice was delivered to him. His $500 remains outstanding. In total SBR has received six slowpay complaints against BetDOS. BetDOS has $5908 in player debt with the earliest payment request made on December 10th.

02.08.2010 (05:03 PM CST)
GamblersPalace complaints total $6025; five players owed
Five GamblersPalace (SBR rating C) slowpay complaints have been received. Two of the payment requests were made in September of 2009, the other three were initiated in December. A total $6025 is owed to the players. GamblersPalace has in two instances changed bonus terms after the fact and forced players to complete additional rollover. GamblersPalace is a sister sportsbook to SkyTower (SBR rating C).

Stryyke slowpay reported
A new Stryyke (SBR rating D) slowpay complaint has been filed. A bettor attempted to withdraw of €775 on January 18th via bank transfer. He sent multiple emails to Stryyke customer service and has yet to receive a timeline on when he can expect to receive his funds. This marks the eleventh outstanding Stryyke slowpay. Stryyke's debt to players is now €6008.86 with the oldest payment request made on October 18th.

Bet33 (formerly Apex Sportsbook) fails to pay stiffed players
Bet33 (SBR rating D-) management has not kept its promise to repay players who held balances at Apex Sportsbook (SBR rating F) at the time the sportsbook flatlined. Unpaid player balances helped create the Bet33 operation, which has the same ownership as the defunct Apex Sportsbook. Bet33 was upgraded from F to D- in July of 2009 after there were no nonpayment reports in more than three years.

02.05.2010 (04:06 PM CST)

He states that a total of 10 emails were sent to Heroes, each of which were answered with generic replies that payments would resume soon. Heroes players have filed 13 slowpay complaints with SBR for a total of $78,165.19 in owed funds.

Stryyke player confirms payment
A Stryyke (SBR rating D) player has confirmed payment. On October 18th the player requested €1299 via Moneybookers. The withdrawal time was attributed to processor delays and a lengthy auditing procedure by Stryyke called a 'KCY' check.

Stryyke:

The KCY includes :
1.    Verification of the player identity, proof of age and address
2.    Determination of the sources of funds
3.    Verification of the Payment method
4.    Verification and Maintenance of the player records (activities and games)

For some payout request, we run the KYC and if necessary check if there is any problem of addiction.
The all procedure can take between 2 weeks and 2 months depending on the player.

Stryyke currently owes 10 players €5233.86. Players experiencing payment delays from Stryyke are invited to submit sportsbook complaint forms.
