Worldbet does not pay and answer mails

[majku22]

Hey,

I was told, that this is only place in internet where I can get any help in such matter.

I am new at the forum and I did not know, that worldbet is such as scum. I requested a payout of 400 $ a couple of days ago and after receiving an automatic response by e-mail from them I confirmed that request by sending them next e-mail. What a fricky confirmation method!?

The point is, that I have sent them several e-mails after on redarding that withdrawal request, and received no single reply from them. My cash is removed from the betting account, and is "nowhere" right now. I dont know what I can do in such situation. It is impossible to contact them. Having known their reputation I would had never invested a single dollar by them.

Is there anything that could be done in such situation except of waiting and praying? I would appreciate any sort of help and advise.

Welcome majku, welcome to the SBRForum.

Buddy I wish I had better news for you. This book was downgraded in May from D- to F indicating they are either a scam or broke.

Write us at Assistance@Sportsbookreview.com and we will see if there is any hope. Meanwhile, you need to start to come to terms with yourself that this money is probably gone.

Here is search from the SBR website. You are not alone.

Looks terrible. Dont you know any law procedures/steps that are possible to try in such situations?

Is it worth anything to try things like that?

[SBR_John]

Highly doubtful. Lets not jump ahead though. Send us your info and we will contact them and try to work out a payment plan or something.

I feel your pain majku22, because Worldbet is bad news.

I've seen this book confiscate players winnings, slow pay people, and even remember people having their winning wagers voided in the past. If I remember correctly I believe that Lakersfan has had some success getting people their funds out of this rouge book, so don't give up hope just yet.

I have had an account with Worldbet for many years. I joined before i knew of SBR. I have had many withdrawals, but I have only had a single one that went through without problems. All the others I had to write numerous emails, of which the first many they never replied to ( and they dont list a phone number you can call ). Everytime I thought that now was the time I would get scammed out of my balance, but in the end I have gotten the money everytime.

I know you wonder why I didnt pull all my money out after the first withdrawal which caused a problem. Well, for two reasons.

They did at a time have extremely crazy odds. Odds you could scalp for big profits with other books.

And besides this I was afraid that if I made a withdrawal of my entire balance at once, there would be a bigger chance of being stiffed. I dont know if this logic makes sense.

However it has been a while since my last withdrawal, and as SBRJohn says they have been downgraded from D- to F recently. However I have made withdrawals earlier when they also were rated F, so there is still hope.

Good luck!

Thanks for the report Pareto.

This book was for sale last year and had a buyer but the deal fell through.

Hi! I've the same problem. I placed a withdrawal of 800 Euro two weeks ago. I didn't get any money. I have written 5 e-mails so far without any answer. Is there any possibility to know more about worldbet? I mean the name and other details of the company owners and staff.

Hi guys. I have waited more than 2 months on my withdrawal on 4000 dollar from Worldbet, i recieved the "withdraw-confirmation"-mail directly but nothing from them after that, despite many e-mails from me to them. Now i have contacted SBR too see if they can help me. Anyone got any other tips on what i could do?

EFS scam

I am fairly new to all this but seem to be up to this point in my life a pretty lucky person. I gave sports betting a shot and signed up at Sporksbook. I turned 40$ deposit into over a 1000$. I requested a withdrawal for 600$ and the check game to my house via Fedex within a week. My problem is that I deposited the EFS check from xxxx into my account and it came back a few days later a **********. I callled my bank and they said they could not get the money from the company who wrote the check. What can I do to fix this? has this happned to anyone else before? I am a college student who lives paycheck to paycheck and every penny counts. Help me. THanks

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum sir

Sounds like a processing error that caused that check to bounce. Give the book a call and explain to them what happen, and odds are they will rectify the problem.

Hi again. Actually i have already fill out the complaint form a couple of weeks ago. And Bill Dozer told by e-mail that Josh will have a look at it, havent heard from him yet though. But i guess i will =)
About Worldbet i know now their bad reputation. The thing is i started betting with them a couple of years ago and have never discovered any problems with them before.
