    My Email to Bovada in regards to the Packers vs Seahawks game

    The Packers vs Seahawks MNF game last night is a sad excuse of NFL officiating. I see that some sportsbooks are refunding Green Bay Packer bettors the money they placed wagers with on this game due to the lack of knowledge by the REPLACEMENT REFS. My question to Bovada is will you guys do the honorable thing as well and refund into our accounts the money we placed wagers with? When FL State vs Savannah State was called off in the 3rd quarter you voided my wager, so how come not now?

    Must I show you the moves that I been practicing in my mother's basement for the past 6 months? I have watched many masters on television and feel that I can swiftly peel the skin off your face and make tacos for my kids with it. Don't make me angry........I've been drinking Mountain Dew all morning and I'm JACKED UP!!!!!

    Momma is mad because I spent the Direct TV bill money on this game because I thought the Packers could turn it around at the half. So when you offered Packers +160 I threw it all on there to make a quick buck. How dare you take away her Nick at Nite, my ESPN, and my lil sister's Disney channels. How dare you!!!!!

    Thank you for taking time to read and hopefully responding back in a reasonable time frame.

    This is the response I got back.

    Thanks for contacting Bovada Sports Customer Service.
    We understand you're frustrated about the outcome of last nights game. However, as per our rules, we have to settle all matches according to the official game time decision, so we're unable to alter your wager due to the call made. We know the call may not have been the right one, but it's something we can't control nor can we change it. All Packers wagers were correctly graded as a loss as the official game score was 14-12 for the Seahawks.

    Our Customer Service Team is available at     service@bovada.lv 24/7 to help if you need anything else.

    Thanks,

    Bovada Customer Service

    Paddypower is refunding green bay bets "

    We're refunding your losing stake!

    The NFL has yet to bring the refereeing strike to an end and as the games continue to be run by amateurs who haven't been to Specsavers, results are getting more and more contentious.
    Last night's result was so ridiculous that we've decided torefund all losing match and match handicap bets on thePackers @ Seahawks match.

    The money is in your account now!

    What other books are refunding Packer bets? or putting promotions like free bets etc?

    I am compiling a list to email to Bovada because they told me no one else is refunding bets..

    I have emailed them about some justice.. I never expect to get my money back because Seattle did win.. I guess

    However, this is a response I just got.. Seems to be moving in the right direction..

    Thanks for contacting Bovada Customer Service.


    Our team is looking to offer something to our players for this bad call, but we haven't received the final word as to what it will be yet. As soon as we know what action will be taken regarding this match, we'll let you know right away.

    In the meantime, we know how this call affected the game and we hope to offer something soon to our players, so they can get back to wagering on the sport they love.

    Let me just say, I have been betting for a long time and have experience some terrible beats. Not once have I ever thought of contacting the sportsbook about something like this.

    What happened last night was not sports. Yes I realize that refs are part of the game but last night was something abnormal and justice needs to be done.

    It would be nice if they'd do something. Heritage posted recently that they are offering a free play too.
