He needs to stop trying to obfuscate what happened, own up, ask for his deposit back and go on his way. Trying to sensationalize or keep his account open won't resolve this any sooner. Taking shots like this is a good way to burn a good out.
No offense, but you and your company are a bunch of dirty, inconsistent, contradicting, lying, scamming scumbags that I can't even begin to imagine how anyone can take you seriously as an "industry watchdog."

This is such f*cking bullshit, I don't know where to start. The fact of the matter is that his money was stolen, and you're basically telling him to be nice, go admit it, and HOPE to get your money back, seriously?

In my books, that's called scamming someone. If this was an RDG corp book you guys would be crying foul, telling everyone not to play there because this is shady and scam like behaviour, but because 5crimes lines your pockets, everything changes. We would have a video and the whole nine yard.

Taking shots never gives a book permission to steal someones money. Why is 5dimes leaving so many lines up late? Is it that hard to take them down? IF every single past posted ticket was a loser to this day, would there be any problem?

How about SBR take their head out of their ass and start basing decisions on actual facts and evidence, rather than how much money they collect from certain books.

The amount of shots he took is completely irrelevant here, what 5crimes is doing is blacklist material, if this were a lower graded, non sponsor book, would this situation be treated the same? I think we know the answer.

SBR, you're as big of scammers as the shady books that get blacklisted. You have no problem when a sponsor book takes part in shady behaviour, but when it's someone who doesn't line you're greedy ass pockets, it's immediate blacklist and bad publicity.

I'll return to the BetIslands fiasco because it's a perfect example. My main question is, knowing that 99% of the players and funds came directly from your customers, why would you not do the right thing and take every penny you accepted from BetIslands and pay the players back a much as you can with that? Why? Because you're a bunch of greedy bastards, who like many of the worlds wealthy, don't mind getting their hands dirty to line their own pockets.

Disgusting if you ask me.
