Bookmaker rips me off for $50

[showonly]

I placed a bet on the Rays game at -135 and could see it change to -140 during the confirm. I did not have the accept all changes activated. After the bet was confirmed the line was still -135 and I had the -140 in my pendings. This stuff is total nonsense. Have other people encountered similar problems?

Im not so sure, I think being robbed of $50 from -135 to -140 might be round a $500 bet

I guess you flunked math in school. It clearly is a dime bet. -1350 to -1400 equals a $50 difference.

People have complained about not being able to stop themselves clicking fast enough when odds change in the betslip and still hitting bet after seeing the change.

But I have not seen anyone claiming Bookmaker intentionally sold them a worse number and reverted straight back before. I'd say that was just bad luck, not a real issue.

all a's in calculus I-IV, the 4th one not required, electrical and computer engineering degree from uab. I didnt put any thought into this really only trying to let ronald know this wasnt a $50 bet even though $50 was lost

yeah this happens a lot; go to put in a line, its clearly shown. Sometimes goes yellow that its moved against me, ok can take the option. But sometimes as it pauses to confirm the play, in those 203 seconds like changes on your ass without being notified and youre stuck with taking that shittier line. Ah, what happened to all these cool, reputable books? All gone to shit in past 2 years.

that does suck. i have to say heritage/wager web are both good at handling that. they put it thru when it changes in my favor or ask me before putting it thru if it goes against me.

This has cost me close to $1000 I would guess. They need to fix it. It never works in your favor, only against. Just like BetOnline.
Pinnacle is the only fair book in this sense, although they shortchange on BTC withdrawals and refuse to correct it (whereas BM and BOL are very good on this front).

There should be no such thing as bad luck. When a line changes it should alert you, erase your bet amount and force you to put in a new bet slip. Bookmaker will also sometimes move the line on you without taking your bet, although this is impossible to prove/. I've often made bets at numbers that have sat there for a long time without moving, then suddenly as I'm about to hit it for the max it moves against me? Oh, and never ever in my favor? At least I'll say that if their line does move in your favor, it will alert you, unlike BOL that will take your bet at a worse number and hope you never notice.

Well see my post right here right now.

I went to bet a side at -150. Clicked confirm. 2 seconds later I see my confirmation slip that shows my bet at -158.

It is happening.

It would be really helpful if you could send in a complaint form with a screen shot demonstrating how it happens for you next time you see it occur https://www.sportsbookreview.com/sportsbook-complaint/

I can’t believe Bookmaker has not fixed this problem yet.

I still bet with them as there’s a lot to like about their book but this one problem is a HUGE problem!

People shouldn't have to file complaints as this issue is a software issue. They should be changing the programming of the bet ticket.

This only happens in their favor as if it moves against you, you will not get the original bet. Its happened to me many times usually for a few cents but sometimes its for even larger moves.

Optional its basically impossible to have complaint deal with this as its the system that is flawed. Not sure if its intentional but it probably is.

Much like how BO will only offer half of a money line when the other side is about to score. They do this constantly and its basically outright stealing. No one seems to care tho as books get away with everything nowadays.

When you are speaking to people not at the coal face, some show and tell material makes things simpler.

we need the old school matchbook back, bookmakers would be obsolete..

I have noticed the BetOnline one where only half the line is open for a side that the odds are going to change dramatically against. Also such things as this team to win the inning odds when they already failed to score in the top of the inning, I wonder if they refund the people that bet that?

He sure is and 100 percent correct!

All great info. Bookmaker should correct this issue. They appear like a fair book. I had an issue where I had a tournament bet for Day over Rose in golf. Day was up 7 strokes going into the final round, Day tees off, hurts his neck, and has to WD from the tournament. Absolutely brutal but I was shown the rules. I closed my account but felt they were transparent by showing me the rule.
