    Betonline scam
    OMG I cant belive this! I joined this scam book via SBR PRO link. At first it was a dream. Deposited via Moneybookers, paid out quick same method. No documents needed, generous reload bonuses, high limits. I had over 1000 usd limit on NBA, 500 usd on ANY soccer, live chat service was perfect.

    Last few months BIG issues started:

    First all at once my withdrawal (not first, not second, probably 5th od 6th) was stopped??!! They need documents now. OK, i sent, they took a week to "verify" and payed me after few days. OK. They said it was new company policy or something like that.

    Than they started to stack my rollover. I placed all real money on bets (free play was lost before that) than found some more bets, deposited another 1000 usd, got bonus, but my rollover wasnt reset, they just added another.

    I have 2000 usd deposited, 500 usd in freeplay and over 40 000 to roll !!!???
    Went to chat, they said it is all legit, my bets were pending, not settled, and rollover of 43125 usd is correct. OK, i said bye bye to my 1000+ usd right than.

    Day after - another suprise. They cut me to limit of 100 usd per bet. NBA, all soccer leagues, all tennis. ALL!!!!

    I started placing bets. It isnt easy loose money when you have to place 20 bets of 100 usd.

    Today i am at 34694 of my 43125. And now final scam - they started deleting my bets and making me look stupid. I am 100% sure i placed 100 usd on mexican soccer (toluca ML +134). at the moment i placed bet only Betonline and BWIN had this game in offer. I saw with my own eyes 100 usd pending after i placed this bet. I just loged in and my pending bets show 0.00.

    I am on like chat right now as i write this. LOOK AT THIS:

          BOL is a slow pay book in the mold of BETUS,BETED, and SBG. They spend all their time and money on ads and excuses. You will get paid but make no mistake it will take "time". My advice is to get your money out and into a more reputable payout book.

            to be continued...

            Lester: Thank you for waiting. I'll be with you in just a moment...
            Lester: xxxxx, I'm going to be very honest with you.
            xxxxx: please do
            Lester: I don't know what you are talking.
            xxxxx: let me speak with someone who does
            Lester: Please explain. First, the wager that you are claiming was never placed.
            Lester: We solved that, you understood.
            Lester: xxxxx, what is your second question or inquiry?
            xxxxx: my rollover
            xxxxx: WAGER WAS PLACED!
            Lester: I will be right with you...

            I WILL BE RIGHT WITH YOU!

            I have about 1000 usd (i cant make 2k i cant go bust and i placed 34k bets) on that account, and to be honest i consider that money lost. I dont care if i win or loose my 100 usd bets, i just want to either loose it or finish this 43125 usd rollover and than make a withdrawal. Just can wait to see that withdrawal pending. I will report this to ALL authorities that are authorized to resolve this issues.

            And about deleted wagers, they done this before. Didnt send any mails or internal notifications, just deleted it. But last time they addmited it and said it was due to wrong lines. And when i asked why didnt they notify me, they said they just intended to write mail. 10 mins before game!!!

            And to SBR - just 2 words - DOWNGRADE BETONLINE

              I dont intend to deposit anymore, but i am finishing my rollover for 2 months now. I try to bet value because it is not easy placing a NBA bet at -110 when you have it at PINNY for -105. Lesson learned. Now i have to get out of this mess ASAP. I will probably loose my money as i have about 9000 to roll with 1000.

                Hi Tony,

                A few suggestions.

                1. Ask for a manager.
                2. Clearly explain that your rollover hasn't been reset on prior busted balances - it's a known issue there that has happened a few times, but from your chats, I think your frustration overshadowed what you were trying to convey.
                3. We've never heard of disappearing wagers - they wouldn't intentionally delete a bet of yours for no reason. We always advise players to screenshot their wagers in case of a discrepancy.

                If you're unable to chat a manager, we can certainly follow up for you with respect to the in-question rollover amount. Please file a complaint.

                  Downgrade never gonna happen here. If SBR downgrade Betonline, that means they admit that they recommended a shitty book for years.

                    The disappearing wager has happened to me a few times. This is at least the third person besides myself to say the same thing. I never hear this complaint with any other book

                      I did, Lester copy pasted me their rollover rules and that conversation was finished.

                      Maybe i fill that complaint of yours later. I am tired of thier CS for the moment!


                      They DID deleted it today as they done it before. It is the way they operate. And also when i tried to speak with anyone there regarding my bet limits i was told that is theirs managers decision and it is final.

                      @TryingMyBest - they did that and last time they admited, so that is a fact!

                        I asked them to change my password as i pasted it here for few seconds (7 people saw first post by the time i corrected it). I give them my new password on chat.

                        They say they will make changes in next 24 h! Is this for real? They need 24 h to change password? O M G

                        They just sent me mail with an old password confirmation!

                        I am on chat again but noone is there!

                        Ha ha ha ha! Is this for real? B rated?

                            Lou, i just managed to complete complaint form and i hope you will start resolving it quick.

                            I think SBR should at least consider taking distance from BetonLine as their reputation goes down fast. You dont need to be on this downhill train. People read many complaints every day, less and less money is deposited and played at BetonLine everyday and this has only one way to go. Betonline will become insolvent, it is not question if, only when. I sincerly hope all players will be paid, just dont know how if no fresh money is coming in.
                            It is realy interesting how you keep their B rating here. I can understand you people got paid well from BOL but once you loose your reputation with BOL think who will trust SBR for all books that will sponsor you in future. You are killing a cow to have one steak.

                              Carrying over rollovers doesn't make sense and it shouldn't happen. In the past, a blanace wasnt reset because there were still a few bucks left. We would have inquired for you at that point. Mgr would address this. Regarding having a $100 limit with a rollover, we'd push for a prorated bonus. If a book feels you are high risk, they should cut ties.

                              As far as missing bets... I have heard of this happening when a book addresses a bad line or there is a change of venue and it is canceled. It's not a good way to do it but for some it happens. Perhaps this was the reason they would cite for your missing bet?

                              We will sort this out with mgt Tony.

                                Ok Bill I will explain this very simple as it was:

                                I deposit at BetonLine lets say 1000 usd and take 250 FREE PLAY. It comes with 6x roll (deposit +bonus).
                                So it is 1250x6 = 7500 to roll.

                                I just dont understand how they stacked 43125 usd to roll. ???

                                On September 22nd i have this next situation. I have 488 usd on account. I place 2 bets. First 15 usd second 473usd. 2 wagers pending - balance 0. I deposit while wagers are pending. 1000 usd dep. Got 250 freeplay.

                                15 and 473 wagers settled after new deposit. 15 usd bet is a win. i got 13 usd winings on that. Second larger bet is a loss.

                                They stacked previous rollover to new deposit. ??

                                Is that OK with you.

                                If you want i can send PM or mail with last 3 month transactions. All will be clear.

                                  Please ask gentleman at BetonLine about this 221671658 bet. Why i cant see what it was??!!
                                  It is not push bet as they are vissible as push and what game it was.

                                  Just ask them what was under No. 221671658.

                                  This is visible only under "transactions history"! I cant see it in my pending or my graded wagers!

                                    I meant that "it doesnt make sense" for the book to do that. They would be deterring losers to come back and try again. I think that is a mistake that the first line of CS should have addressed.

                                      Your balance wasn't zero if you had pending bets, Tony... So BOL is in the right here (probably first time ever...)

                                        Beted is a nopay book..if you can call it a book. It was covers.com's bitch and when they got some legal trouble they used that as cover to take the money and run. BOL has issues but you can't lump them in with Beted.

                                          Funny how with all these types of complaints for months now....SBR continues to not downgrade BO and keeps them at a B+....nice work, Bill. Keep deceiving people.

                                            BetOnline addressed this one today. They say Tony's rollover is now reset, and a manager will call to personally explain the confusion to him, apparently the balance had a few cents leftover.

                                            We've asked Tony to let us know how it goes and keep us posted on his payout status.

                                              Ok. Here is most recent update. I just chat to Julien from SBR. He confirmed my rollover is reset to 0. But...

                                              I must also write here in interest of everyone holding account at Betonline what i experienced today.
                                              Everybody reading this thread know my yesterdays rollover status. It was 34694 of 43125 required. So last night i placed about 500 usd to NBA singles and parlays. When games finished i manage to stay at about 200 usd on top of this 500. So I made 200 usd on NBA last night. Today i woke up loged on to my account and found new rollover of 34207 usd??? So it is more to rollover than night before and i placed 500 usd bets.
                                              This is info i get when i logon in webpage header (on top). It may be internal error or cookies issue but all of you having account at Betonline should know this. After that i went to chat asking manual calculations, they put request on it and told me to get back later toady, which i just did. When i loged on few minutes ago i found new rollover 0/0 but also my freeplay balance of -1187.5 usd (negative free play). They fixed it right away so now my freeplay balance is 0, rollover is 0/0 and real money figures were correct all the time.

                                              Conclusion is that thier software is mess. I got confirmation i can withdaraw now, but i will wait for pending bets to grade.

                                              My deleted bet No.
                                              221671658 is still a mistery, noone explained that yet. I ask SBR to investigate this issue also as i want to show everybody here i am not crazy and i placed that bet for sure. They deleted it without any notice to me and denied existance of that bet.

                                              I will keep all of you informed about my withdrawal when i request it. I use Moneybookers only, never waited more than 7-10 days for Betonline withdrawals earlier. But it was long time i made my last withdrawal there, many things changed till now. Lets see what will happen.

                                                  So they did stack rollovers and they DID DELETE my wager without any notice, They say they "tried" to notify me but it didnt reach me? Hm, i let people to get conclusion from this.
                                                  Question is why their CS on chat says no bets were deleted and manager says they tried to inform me?
                                                  Didnt even apologize for this.
                                                  Case closed.

                                                    Why do they delete wagers? Why not cancel the wager and leave it in the account?

                                                      DC the same manager who replied to you also told me a check was sent to me on 11/12 but when I asked for the tracking number he said he doesn't have it, I still have not received the check.

                                                        We heard but from mgt on your claim today as well. They confirmed they were going to switch your payout as originally relayed but that they couldn't cancel the other payout in time. We've been told DC will stay on top of your situation personally till your funds are in hand. Keep us posted.

                                                            It is very strange that DC claims Betonline tried to inform me about my deleted messages but no succes.

                                                            Becaues they have internal messaging system and i could read it when i log on to account.

                                                            B rated?

                                                            And who will pay juice wagering at -110 lines?
                                                            35 000 $ wagered at -110 instead of -105 or even -103 at Pinnacle. I have account there you know.

                                                              why do they have an issue with stacking rollovers all the time??? im a victim of the same thing. i kept getting told they would adjust it and such but nothing has changed. as long as your account has something in it, even if its one cent, they stack the rollover. i had like 8 cents in freeplay once on there and that prevented me from getting a new freeplay until i spoke with customer service and they advised me anything under a dollar counts as a zero balance.

                                                              however, they seem to not follow that zero rule when it comes to their sportsbook.

They confirmed they were going to switch your payout as originally relayed but that they couldn't cancel the other payout in time. We've been told DC will stay on top of your situation personally till your funds are in hand. Keep us posted.

                                                                Lou,
                                                                Last Thursday DC told me a check was sent to me on 11/12 and said thats why they can't pay me by **
                                                                When I asked him what is the tracking number he said he doesn't know
                                                                I still have not received my payout after 30 days
                                                                DC is lying, if they had sent me a check on 11/12 by FedEX--UPS I would have received it by now, too many lies and bullshit

                                                                They told me 30 days ago if I pay the extra fee for Express Check I will get it in 7 days, these guys are unbelievable, liars

                                                                If they cant pay me by check or ** why not transfer the funds to my account at bookmaker?
                                                                This book cant even pay $2500 after 30 days

                                                                    There is absolutely NO doubt that if WSEX was still paying sbr, they would still somehow be making excuses for them, just as they're doing with BO. But in all honesty, if you don't count all the slow pays/no pays by betonline that are reported here on a DAILY basis, they have a perfect pay history.
