One Sportsbook Is Refunding Gamblers Who Bet On The Packers, But Not U.S. Gamblers

http://www.businessinsider.com/sportsbook-refunds-packers-bet-2012-9

Sportsbooks refund Packers bets after controversial calls, highlighting the impact of officiating on gambling.

milwaukee mike · 09-25-12, 10:49 AM

wow and sportscrook.com probably had 80% action on the packers?

FindTheLock · 09-25-12, 10:52 AM

in the form of a free play, which is not the same as a refund at all. They won't pay their players even if they win, so this marketing act is just meant to lure in more suckers off the streets.

djefferis · 09-25-12, 10:53 AM

Well, lets be honest, there was a heavy square lean towards GB.

Would love to see others do this, heritage is as well...but wont say the amount, only hinting they will give free play to all side bettors on green bay.

Love to see 100% with them, but I don't hold out hope.

milwaukee mike · 09-25-12, 10:56 AM

was just told by betdsi NO refund or free play

lol at the guy making fun of Sportscrook when he writes the following:

"But gambler post the image below to his Twitter account. It is a message he received from Sportsbook.com. And they are right. It was the right thing to do. Or even "right the thing to do" (we know what they meant)..."

Maybe he should have someone proofread his crappy articles.

Per BetIslands:

DUTCH: I have no idea. Neither jon nor Ryan is here, and we have a lot of people who won on the Seahawks.

Actually, Heritage started a thread earlier. Freeplay to anyone who bet $100 or more on GB.

milwaukee mike · 09-25-12, 11:30 AM

yisman, that's what he was saying. heritage won't give the full amount of losses back on the free play. if you lost $1000 and they give you a $50 free play, that's not so great obviously

Brock Landers · 09-25-12, 11:32 AM

why the fuk would they refund a wager on this game???

The result is what it is, doesn't fuckin' matter HOW it happened.

BigDaddy · 09-25-12, 11:35 AM

so 2 stiff books are refunding wagers

heritage stiffing a casino winner
sportsbook stiffing a ton of big winners

the sheep love it

lol

KMoney33 · 09-25-12, 11:35 AM

I have some money still left with them that I didn't case out. I had a parlay with the packers where the only loss was the packers. I would have won 2,100 so to say I had some issues falling asleep last night is saying the least. I haven't gotten anything yet I hope they don't screw me like the usually do and say parlays don't count. Anyone here have any luck getting refunded?

KMoney33 · 09-25-12, 11:40 AM

Here is the response I received from my sportsbook chat. What a joke.

Andy Reynolds: We are not offering refunds for this game there is a site with the domain of sportsbook.com/global that provides support to Europe that is offering that but we don't offer this we are sportsbook.ag and unfortunately the official decision is that the winners are the Seahawks and we work based on the official decision of the game so unfortunately there is nothing that we can do about this

heritage isn't giving a refund. i think a $800 loss gets a $50 free play, not even close to a refund

he was saying they were "hinting". I'm saying they started a thread announcing it before he posted.

You know what's crazy? They keep getting the name wrong of their own site. It's sportscrook.com. Everyone knows this.

bankOmAn · 09-25-12, 12:18 PM

I spoke with Tony at bookmakers, he is told me their looking into something so waiting to hear back.

Big difference between stiffing a winner and not paying a scam artist! Heritage has an excellent payout record on legit claims.

BEANTOWNJIM · 09-25-12, 04:19 PM

I HAD 655 DOLLARS ON GREEN BAY LAST NIGHT BUT I DONT EXPECT TONY THE DAGO AT 5 DIMES TO HELP OUT THE PLAYERS WHO OBVIOUSLY GOT F-CKED.

I AM DONE WITH 5 DIMES WHEN I HEARD HERITAGE STEPPED UP TO THE PLATE THEY HAVE ME AS A CUSTOMER

allabout the $$$ · 09-25-12, 04:28 PM

my local gave everyone who was on gb a 100 free play

Coolcanuck79 · 09-25-12, 05:26 PM

Bet365 gave me 1/2 my total wagers back in cash. I have been with them forever so I have built up loyalty.

not so great?>?? are you on crack?? they don't even have to give you $50 fp.. how many books actually does this for you??? if you don't like the fact that they give you $50fp because they feel bad for you, i don't know what to say.

Coolcanuck79 · 09-25-12, 05:43 PM

^^^ exactly. I wasn't expecting anything from bet365 but a manager called me and thanked me for my loyalty and offered me 1/2 my wagers back. I consider myself very lucky and anyone else who received anything from their book should simply count themselves lucky.

The outcome of the game still sucked ass though!

coop · 09-25-12, 05:51 PM

wouldn't this be a pretty dangerous precedent to set for books?

have people complaining about blown calls after every loss
