    Wagerweb be aware!!!
    Hey guys,

    just wanted to let everybody know that I just got burned by Wagerweb. I had an account with legends. It was said that those accounts went over to wagerweb. I contacted them about activating my account and guess what, they refuse!!! I had $289 in that account left, that is money that they simply refuse by not activating my account.


    I contacted customer service by phone since after a while they refused to talk to me on the chat. I talked to a guy named Xavier who literally was the rudest person I have ever talked to.

    Unbelievable that such a sportsbook still exists out there.


    BE CAREFUL GUYS!!!

    Hi sebi,

    Can you please clarify if the $289 was actual cash that you could have immediately withdrawn, i.e. not bonus cash?

        Not surprising, no reason at all to play at this book unless u cant say no to bonuses, but like u alot of posters didn't have a choice with the legends crap. Hope u get paid and get to a solid book. Goodluck pal, im sure its probably just a glitch but get to a solid book asap

        and yes I deposited there b4 I knew better so im speaking from experience. Lucky for me only took 1 time to see how bad this book is.

        Odds are just god awful there too

            hey everybody,

            I JUST BURNED BY WAGERWEB!!! i would highly suggest avoiding those people. I had a legends account with $289 in it, wanted to activate that account on wagerweb and they are refusing to do it!!! So they are just taking it. I really feel sorry for all of the legend accounts that were transfered. Customer service btw is horrible. After they stopped talking to me via chat I called them up and they still refuse. Matter of fact the guy I talked to, Xavier, called me names on the phone before hanging up.

            I am shocked how this business is still alive.

            Everybody who thinks about putting money in ... don't!!!

                According to the book, you called today saying you wanted to be paid your funds immediately without rolling over the 5X. You allegedly threatened to contact authorities saying you didn't authorize the book to transfer your funds from Legends.

                You may have just stumbled on the situation but Legends gaming license was revoked in Panama forcing them to close. WagerWeb assumed all cash balances with a 5X rollover. The original rollover was double but it was reduced to make it easier on players.

                    yes I haven't been betting a lot and just got the info. Yes I did tell them that I think it is a bunch of bull to make people, that were eligible to be paid out, bet their money 5x. Furthermore they charge $65 for a cashiers check but the minimum is $1000. So yes I did tell them I believe it is unfair and their fees are unreasonable.


                    Does that give them right to just take my account? I mean they won't even let me place a bet now with my money. How does that work?

                        Hahah man you are funny. What do you mean give them the right to take your account? Legends is no more. What part of that do you not get? I should sue you for the damage to my shirt and laptop. When I read this I shot dr pepper out of my nose. You tell them you refuse to do the roll over and that you are contacting the authorities because (and i quote) "Does that give them right to just take my account? I mean they won't even let me place a bet now with my money. How does that work?" buahahah. Thanks man you made my day.

                            Well see the funny thing is that they completly deleted my account. So they don't even let me place a bet now with my money. I mean I get that 5x now but the fact that they completly remove an account that has money in it shows how they work in my opinion

                              When a sportsbook closes, sometimes there are no other shops willing to assume balances. Part of it is dealing with the annoyance of bad press created by those who'd rather not have gotten the chance to redeem their funds than complete a small rollover. We're seeing an example of that here.

                              Your Legends balance was credited on April 20 and had been waiting for you to rollover ever since.

                              Management indicates you are welcomed to complete the rollover as normal - If I were you, I'd apologize for my misguided hostility and begin chipping away at the turnover requirement.

                                Dude you threatened them. You said you wouldn't do the roll over. YOu told them you didn't authorize them to "take your account" (peeing myself on this one), and now you are crying cause they wont let you play there. You come on here bashing them for what all of us old legends guys had to do 2 months ago. I wouldn't let you wash my dog man. No offense but you are clueless.

                                  Well management is lying to you on that one. I called them and they said the account will remain being closed no matter what

                                    You're going to have to give a few minutes for customer service to get the memo, as the last thing they have to go on is your stating that you do not want to play there and that you'll be complaining to authorities.

                                        You just cannot make this stuff up... Just do your 5x rollover and move on. Your lucky you got that instead of nothing.

                                          Tourchback I can't do the 5x because the account is gone. They completly blocked it. So I didn't get anything.

                                                  Sebi, just make nice... get your account turned back on and make some plays. Your roll is not that much and you can knock it out pretty fast and then move to another service if you want. Easy... Right.

                                                    Easy enough if they let me. I just send them an email. We will see what happens.

                                                          Does anyone actually have a legitimate complaint about this book? Not getting paid, no overnights, low limits, etc....?

                                                          Was just curious if theyve improved since the acquisition of legends accounts

                                                            Spot on about offshore. I have stopped depositing offshore. Too many headaches when the market was ok...now its a nightmare. Put down the burden and go with a local if you have to. I cross the border to Canada to place wagers now.

                                                            After the BI fiasco, I dont do biz with any book that I linked to from SBR. An affiliate is all they are now...shame sbr was good for years.

                                                            I had a balance at Legends....I still have not even investigated whether its at WW or not. I consider it gone...too much of a headache.

                                                            GL to all of you who choose to play offshore and live in the US....

                                                              Since my last post there have been some happenings that I would like to set straight. When I opened that thread I did not understand what just happened to legends. I firmly believed that my account was sold or transferred and therefore was upset about the rollover requirements. I now understand however that legends is gone and that my account was saved by wagerweb to at least give me the chance to continue betting.

                                                              I apologize for accusations and threats I made, they were simply wrong and based on wrong information.

                                                              Admin, if it is at all possible, please close this thread.

                                                              Thanks

Hope u get paid and get to a solid book. Goodluck pal, im sure its probably just a glitch but get to a solid book asap
