    FonBet wont pay me my money

    Hi,
    Could anyone help me please. I have won $6,800 on FonBet and they will not pay me these funds. They have completely banned me. They will not let me email them nor chat with them.
    They are saying that a person I know bets like me and lives beside me and therefore its not fair and they are banning my account.

    Please, any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks, Marianna.

    Ladbrokes withdrawl of funds

    HI All,

    I am new to this site and wondered if anyone had any idea's. My daughters boyfriend subscribed to Ladbrokes free play and won £400 - only cannot withdraw it as he has to at least £600 before any withdrawls can be claimed. Clearly he did not read the t&c's properly.

    Does anyone know if this is correct as surely they cannot force you to bet £600 with the option to loose rather than walk away... when we called customer services they just told us you might win but probably wont win what you have already.

    Does anyone know if this legal to enforce people to gamble?

    sorry if this sounds a bit dippy but I have never used these sites before

    Hi Mariana - If you haven't already done so please fill out an SBR Complaint Form if you'd like someone to investigate your case.

    Sara, freeplays require the funds to be rolled over a certain amount of times before they can be withdrawn and those terms are shown before the player accepts the offer. This is the stipulation you agree to when you accept free money from a sportsbook.

    Same thing happen to me,dont even bother your money is gone.They are russian bookies and have their own law.You cant contact them only send mail that nobody ll answer to it.
    I heard of few more cases like this with them.You ll get your deposit back and that is it.
    Did you play live betting or regular one?

    Well, I can confirm and have proof that Fonbet is a pure scam.
    On 14-11 I made a bet of $120 for Blue Jackets to score the first goal against Boston @ 2.70. BlueJackets scored the first goal but low and behold, Fonbet claim the bet I made was for Blue Jackets to win.
    OK, maybe I made a mistake, I'm only human, and of course i can't prove anything.
    Today I decided to make another bet, for $30 for Lokomotiv to score the first goal against St Petersburg in KHL @ 4.40. Immediately after making the bet I send them a message asking to confirm that the bet I made was for 'first goal scorer. When looking at my open bets
    in my account, the bet looks like this:
    18.11 19:30 Ska St. Petersburg - Lokomotiv: Including OT and SO Lokomotiv 4.40 Not settled
    If you go on to their website, you can clearly see that the win odds for this game are 6.1, not 4.4. The odds on the bet I made actually dropped immediately after my bet to 4.1.
    The reply from their support was that the bet is for Lokomitiv to win including OT and SO. Actual questions I asked are not answered.

    Where did you find this info?

    Fonbet works fine as always. Good book, but limits around 10-30€

    The article is more than a year old and Fonbet is still around. It is also mentioned that they have 900 shops in Russia. There may be even more in other EE countries. They pay very fast and offer big limits unless you are restricted. I would say JJ is dead right on this.

    Sorry. My error. I thought they were from 2015 not 2014.
