InternationalAllSports (IASBet, SBR rating C) complaint has been received. A player tells SBR that he has been owed a balance of approximately €800 for more than twelve months. The player claims that
IASBet no longer accepts bettors from Romania--his country of residence-- and that in light of this, he has been put through the ringer to verify his identity. The player says he provided a copy of his credit card, a bank statement, birth certificate and national ID card in addition to paying for some of the documents to be notarized. Sportsbook Review is following up on this account complaint.

InternationalAllSports stands by confiscation of player bonus+winningsOn September 22nd SBR
reported that
InternationalAllSports (SBR rating B) had closed a player's account while an investigation was being conducted. The player had a balance of €5,000 at the time his account was disabled. Today
IASbet has addressed SBR with their stance concerning the player.
IASbet:
1. This player has multiple accounts linked to him via shared environments which is against our standard policies
2. He is part of an Austrian syndicate with 3 or more linked parameters including the betting patterns
3. They have not used the bonus in the spirit it was awarded and therefore we do have the right to remove the bonus and any winnings associated to it as contested funds
4. Documents received from one of the linked accounts were rejected as being suspicious
5. Our terms also state that a player will forfeit his entire bonus if he initiates a withdrawal before the bonus turnover is met. In this instance that is what the player tried to do and his withdrawal was rejected.
In light of this we have opted to refund his entire deposit amount of €4000.00 and remove the bonus including winnings associated with this.
IASbet has refused to provide specific evidence supporting any of their assertions to protect screening techniques. The player has adamantly denied any wrongdoing.

InternationalAllSports cites bonus abuse and confiscates player winningsInternationalAllSports (SBR rating B) has closed a player's account and confiscated winnings for what they claim was "bonus abuse". The player adamantly denies the misuse of any bonus and his requests for support from
IASbet have went unanswered. The player has provided a timeline to SportsbookReview which states the following order of events:
• June 21st: The player requests 495€ withdrawal. The player is asked to provide 100 points of ID. The player sends 110 points.
• July 2nd: They need copy of the card, player complies.
• July 3rd: Player asked to send bank account #, IBAM and Swift, player obliges.
• July 13th: Player is refunded 30€.
• July 22nd: Player is refunded 30€.
• July 29th: Player is informed account was closed and deposits returned.
The player's deposit was only 30€ and he was refunded this amount twice in two seperate transactions prior to being informed the account was closed. SBR will seek to reach management to discuss this. This is the second account closure case levied against
InternationalAllSports in the past week.
