I have used bookmaker for the last five years. Today I needed to deposit, and they told me that my account has fraud and I cant use the debit/CC options. I have no fraud and have read elsewhere about Bookmaker doing this to players. Does anyone here know anything about it?

#3It's my first post, but I've used similar forums before. I've checked this site out before from time to time though. Just looking for some help or information.Comment -

#6Did you had some problems at another site? Often information about potential fraud gets shared between books...Comment -

#7why not just tell them u didnt fraud anyone.. and ask for a valid reason.. provide proof of id/address/etc if that dont clear it up file an sbr complaint.. they will get to bottom of this.. but they will also expose u if u are a scammer.. so follow through at ur own risk

#8I said the same thing to them. They said I can still use ********** or **. I was a silver member on there. Honestly, I probably lost a good amount on there. I have a bunch of friends who also used the site. About a month ago they got the same message from the live help. I don't feel comfortable using ********** or ** and I much prefer Bookmaker to other online sites.Comment -

#10They said they run a background check with other sites. I only used bodog over the summer and deposited around $80. I've always used bookmaker. I've never had a issue with them. The background check is bogus. I really don't understand it.Originally posted by secretstashwhy not just tell them u didnt fraud anyone.. and ask for a valid reason.. provide proof of id/address/etc if that dont clear it up file an sbr complaint.. they will get to bottom of this.. but they will also expose u if u are a scammer.. so follow through at ur own risk

#11They also said the background search doesn't give them site names. They said it just shows 2 possible fraud situations. I have no reason to lie on here. I know of 3 other people they have done this to. Their friends of mine, other college students. We use our **** cards and never ahd a problem in the past. About a month ago they started pulling this stunt with them and they stopped betting. At the time I had 3k in my account. I took out around 1200, and ran out of the rest tonight. I went to re up and they used the fraund line on me, and wont let me deposit through a card.Comment -

None of those interest me. Just want simple DC. Seems fair enough right?Comment -

You might wanna try speaking with their Fraud dept. They might be able to give you a turn around for this. Might, though, nothing's for certain.Comment -
