    SIA is Not allowing NY/NJ accounts anymore

    Just got off the phone, they are closing all active accounts from Ny and NJ...yes even the ones that are already open. I am assuming they will refund my entire balance...I had a bopnus I was trying to rollover. This slucks....looks like the good old days of betting are going to be very limited

    Sorry, our gaming services are not available in your region
    Above message came up when I logged on in my SI account today.

    Not a good time to be a sports bettor and reside in NY/NJ/WA.

    I didn't know what NJ was on the hitlist. I thought it was just NY/WA/MD. That really stinks.

    I got out of SIA the minute I found out about FTP and PS getting the DOJ boot and I am Canadian. They are WAY too close to America imo. Matchbook's exit of the US was a warning and this should be seen as one too.

    NY state is one of the worst for everything that goes through government.

    How do you all still have SIA accounts. Everyone should have been banned long ago for winning too much.

    Because you underestimate how square-ish most posters on here are!
