Greetings...Just wanted to pass along a story regarding an incident I had with bestlinesports (B- rating I believe) and hopefully get the thoughts of some of the esteemed Forumites.
I opened up an account with this organization a couple of months ago, and to give credit where it is due, all was well. However, recently I logged in and saw the somewhat alarming message: "Account disabled; Call customer service." I did so and was told that my account had been locked due to betting irregularities. Basically, I was informed that I was making too many large half-time wagers, as opposed to my more conservative "regular" bets. My account would remain disabled unless I agreed to "spread my wagers out" as it was explained to me.
Seeing that my account was inaccesible and that they were in possession of my fairly significant funds, let's just say that I felt compelled to agree. Situation resolved to their liking, the padlock came off of my account and it was active again. I made 3 more bets, achieved my bonus rollover, and got the hell out, withdrawing everything and running for the hills.
Again, I had no problems whatsoever up to that point, but when a sportsbook, in my opinion, opens up the playbook and starts inventing rules on an apparently individual basis, that to me is a sure sign to abandon ship.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience and/or if the decision of a full-scale retreat on my part was too rash. Thanks.
