    I will not continue writing if I was not 100 % sure that I didnt make any fraud abuse or such a thing. I am 100 % sure that everything with my bets was normal, everything with my documents is ok...I just cant believe that I was involved in such fraud

    How low and cheap can these books get?

    The only fraudulent party here is the book.

    Where are you from Franky? Something very fishy about this case. Top Euro books are not known as bull shiters and scamers!

    We spoke with BetFred's head of fraud. We can share that the player's ID was proven to be forged, but agreed not to break it down further than that. BetFred clarifies that in normal circumstances (non-forged IDs), if a doc is unclear, they will ask for a higher resolution scan. That wasn't the case here.

    BetFred acted fairly.

    So many posters on this forum like to jump to conclusions without the benefit of all the facts.

    #1 fact in this business is that there are thousands more frauds committed or attempted by players than have ever been perpetrated by books.

    The main surprise here is that Moneybookers appear to have accepted the forged ID.

    I don't think it's too surprising... I think they really hammer you when you try to withdraw or maybe it's like the 90 day thing here in Aus? Or at least that was my experience. I was able to deposit and transfer money to a book without being asked for ID. Of course AA Mould f'd that all up but they never asked for my docs (which I could've provided obviously). I just happened to get kicked under that account before it became relevant

    Have seen some Euro books have stopped offering bonuses for new accounts that deposit with Moneybookers/Neteller these days, so it does make you wonder why - if Moneybookers have been accepting forged ID's as appears to be the case here...then this new policy would make some sense.

    well, it's too easy to set up a moneybooker account for a gnome, deposit to a book, and go for a bonus bustout.

    as anyone who's ever bet with that bald twat knows, you don't get four figures on ANYTHING at BetFred for more than a few days at best if even that, so anyone with a complaint like this with a stake amount like that is guaranteedly going for fast burn/lose out approach to burn a promotion up and possibly being slick with identity.

    Jane / Frankie / Blondie must have lost about 2.5k covering the other side or laying off that attempt ...

    that's going to be a lot of bonus gnoming to make back

    Is there any book on this planet you think is ok?

    All those UK books end up being a waste of time for serious punters due to the severe limiting they invoke. However, you can still make good money from them before wearing out your welcome. Just keep moving on until you've extracted as much as you can from each of them. They are regulated, safe and straight. Unless you are trying to cheat them or doing something illegal your money is as safe as anywhere.

    Fine...i use only Pinny, SBO and Greek right now.
    Obviously that results in getting spoiled with high standards, and other books look like crap.
    Then again, iam not as smart as you and find value everywhere, with your 20 accounts while you still find time posting at all hours day or night.

    Thank you. I agree those are three fine books and won't limit you, although their limits for some sports/events can be rather low at times. Having more quality books is a bonus.

    I have just found $100 limits on today's ODI at Pinnacle. No odds at either SBO or Greek but fortunately there's decent liquidity at Betfair. I no longer have as many as 20+ accounts due to having been so severely limited by all the Euro and most of the Aussie books but I'd certainly have no qualms about playing at them all if not for that.

    As for my posting times, I don't know why that should concern you. I do get my due quota of sleep and recreation if that's what's worrying you. But playing on horses in Australia and sports around the world does lead to keeping what may seem to you as unusual hours and there are gaps to be filled between races and waiting to get bets matched.

    There's no mention of any bonuses that the OP might have taken advantage of with BetFred.

    Did the OP submit forged documents to cover up the fact that he/she had multiple accounts with BetFred and was collecting bonuses multiple times?

    Did the OP have multiple accounts to exceed betting maximum limits?

    If the OP deposited 2020 EUR while submitting forged documents WITHOUT collecting multiple bonuses or exceeding bet maximums, then BetFred should be obligated to payout the winning wager.

    What happened to "book the bet", "pay the bet"? If the wager on Sunderland would have lost, then BetFred would have happily kept the money.

    If BetFred's rule about the documents is always enforced, why can't I deposit $2,500 and bet it all on a basketball game? If it wins, I supply all the correct documents when requesting my $5,000 withdrawal. If it loses, I send in forged ID documents and then the bet will supposedly be canceled by BetEd and I would receive my original deposit back?

    People are always whining about not getting paid when they take advantage of some $100 promotion without ever putting one penny of their own money at risk and I really don't care if they get stiffed. However, the OP did indeed put up $2,000 of real money, won the wager and is getting totally stiffed by BetFred and yet SBR is claiming that the book acted fairly?

    I'm assuming there is a lot of information regarding this case that hasn't been disclosed.

    Yes I assume the reason they're not breaking it down further is they don't want to show how they identified the account/problems. Anti-fraud measures seem to be something of a trade secret so as not to allow fraudsters an easy way to circumvent them.

    are you crazy, fake ID, I am from Bulgaria, there is no bonus given to bulgarian customers, how to make arbs on WBA - Sunderland... Do yuo believe Lou and Betfred that I am so stupid to give fake ID, my ID is scanned and IT IS NOT FORGED! I am just thinking right now of whole SBR activity here and the relations with betfred. Lou, one question - Do you want to send you my ID and after that I want to tell me where is the fake, why is my ID forged, I can take a picture with me and my ID if you want, but offcourse - there is no NEED! We have to believe in Betfred, we have to believe that I am the scammer!!! You are so pathetic!

    and one more thing, I will do anything, I will make notarial copy of my ID if they want, but I am 100 % sure that Betfred and Lou will countinue saying - ''there is no need'', your document is forged. Lou, think about one more time - forged ID, 2020EUR deposit, WBA - Sunderland(very famous premiership event), I didnt get any bonus, reward, promotion, anything... Ask your self WHY?????????Why am I so stupid to make the whole thing with forged ID? Ask you self or its more easy to say the same thing like betfred. Thank you Lou, thank you SBR, thank you for everything...

    Its normal that you dont believe me... Nobody believes in me, but its ok. I know for myself that I am not a scammer and everything with my ID is ok, but the 100 % sure thing is that there is no matter if you believe me or not, I will never get my money back, and this makes me sick, because I am 100 % clean and have no bad reputations in the bookies, I am not arbing, I dont remember when I get bonus or something like that, I am just gambling, what is so strange? Yes, I am a girl, why are you asking that everytime, I am girl and I am a gambler...What is so strange?

    Talk with the guys at betfred to see if you can send them a notarized copy of your ID. They should accept that.
    And just a small advice.... try to be more friendly. If your complaint is genuine, it's normal to be upset but you really won't get anywhere if you're rude.

    You need to calm down. You're fukking hysterical and nobody wants to help someone who doesn't stop and think.

    Before you post 10,000 more times, you need to find out what the problem with your ID was and contact the proper authorities. I don't know why you are still posting in here. At this point SBR Lou has declared you a fraud so no one is going to believe you, even if you are telling the truth. That's just the way it is.

    As mentioned before see if a notarized copy of your ID will make a difference. If it doesn't, find out why not. If it does, go and do that. Those are your only remaining options.

    And post a picture with your ID on SBR and everyone will come to help you. Unless you're ugly, then don't bother.

    God bless.

    btw franky / jane / blondie / gnome / whatever ...

    WBA - Sunderland (very famous premiership event)


    West Brom/Sunderland wouldn't even be mentioned as one of the top 4 or 5 of the matches this wkend.

    Qpr/Fulham derby, Arsenal/Tottenham derby ... Chelsea/Bolton, Newcastle/Wolves, even Norwich/ManUtd or ManCity/Blackburn

    Very famous? Far from it.

    If you really believe that you have a case then take it to the Gibraltar Gambling Commission which whom Betfred are regulated (details on the bottom of Betfred's website). If you really do have a case then they are the only ones who can actually force Betfred to pay you...if they rule in your favour of course.
