    Bookmaker not allowing account to go to bust?
    I have a $CAD BM account. Within the last week I was getting some money off the site and noticed that on two different occasions when I tried to bet my entire account balance it wouldn't allow me to do so. I then tried on two separate occasions to bet a penny less and both bets went through (leaving me with $0.01 in account both times). I used to be able to bet the entire account balance without a problem. Is this a new way for BM to enforce rollover requirements on old bonuses or just a glitch with the betting software?

    Did you ask them? Haven't seen anyone else mention it.

      It probably is something like 123$and445 (44.5 cents) so they round it up in the account but you cannot bet the whole cent

        Youwager does weird stuff like that but almost the opposite. Say you have 100.76 left in your account and make a 100 bet, they will just take the .76 and show your balance as 0. It's alllllways something....

            But if you redeposit, or win a bet, the cents reappear. I think they just want to avoid people making wagers of less than 1 dollar.

                I'll see next time i re-deposit at the shop how they calculate the RO. Hopefully it will just be on the new deposit amount only.

                  So you start a thread suggestively smearing them but won't ask them what the actual position really is?

                  If you think there is a problem but are too much of a pussy to speak to them to clarify the position before a re-deposit, don't come back here crying afterward.

                    I didn't speak with them because their CS is useless from personal experience many times. Why would I waste my time when the answer they are going to provide doesn't matter? I posted here because I wanted to see if anyone else had run into this issue since it was something new to me and my account. Isn't this a place to supposedly "review" sportsbooks good and bad? Or is the good stuff only allowed to be posted now with everything else being a "smear" on those saintly sportsbooks? I'll ignore the personal attack coming from a mod because I find it hilarious. Keep up the good work SBR!

                        have had this happen also. this will not affect you when it comes to rollover.

                          Why are you being a f-ing dick? His question was legit. What's wrong with asking if anyone else has experienced the same thing?

                          I've had it happen at a different book! Way to back the people that keep this forum going by calling them a pussy.

                            Sorry. That was a bit over the top of me reading again now.

                              This is definitely a legit question.
