[SCAM ALERT!! DANGER] All Jazzsports.ag, Looselines, ABCislands and Betodds Issues

How does a sportsbook go broke? I thought running a gambling site was a full proof way to stay in business?

[caramba]

I've had the same message. "The Payouts for recreational players are currently being prioritized over professional players" is a convoluted way of saying "we are broke".

[jgemma1]

It's been more than a month for me too
Have you contacted support?

yes, received the templated response below. At least I got a “warm regards”
Hello Joseph,


Regarding your request for a withdrawal, The Payouts for recreational players are currently being prioritized over professional players, which has extended processing times. The team is aware of the situation and has noted your account to ensure it remains in the same queue order as your original request.


We apologize for the delay, Sir. The initial timeframe provided was based on standard processing times, but due to the current prioritization of recreational player payouts, some requests are taking longer than expected.


Should you have any questions or require any assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to help.Warm regards,

Chad Torres.

My last payout was in Feb 3rd
In Live chat told, what non-recs players is not in priority to withdrawals, but stay sure, you will receive your funds

[SirtySree]

Contact support as they will say the withdraw request has expired after 30 days and you need to resubmit your request.

They will apparently put you back where you were in the queue but I doubt it really matters as I still haven't been paid and haven't heard any non-recs getting paid yet.

Just hit the one month mark and still pending

[caramba]

has anyone been paid here in the last 30 days?

I am a what they call a non-recreational and was paid $1,000 on Feb 7. But that was before the more recent reports about payments being put on hold to non-recreational players, payment requests expiring etc.

Same issues here guys. Keep us updated. Has anyone actually even gotten $1000 in recent weeks?

Is there some sort of gaming commission in CR we can contact?

Shame what this place has become since Henry has departed. Anyone betting offshore needs to stick to the 2 big dogs. This is really sad.

Bump. Five days for me and counting for me.

[SirtySree]

I don't think they are paying any 'non-recs' at the moment. I have one pending for 30 days now too.

[jgemma1]

I have a buddy who got paid recently but he’s not limited to the $1k per week which seems to be the group they are deeming “non-recreational”.

I suspect they’re illiquid and relying on deposits to pay out players they want to keep around. Stiffing people comes with massive reputation risk so I think they’re on the ropes.

[little_shelf]

Just wanted to write that I am experiencing the exact same thing as PunisherIND.

I deposited because they had great bonuses and I ended up clearing the rollover. I made one withdrawal for $2500 without a problem, which was paid within a week. On my second withdrawal attempt, they changed my withdrawal limit to $100/week with a 3 week waiting period.
I complained to support and they adjusted it to $1000/week. I request a withdrawal and they make me wait for 20 days, saying that I am considered a professional player and that they are focusing on recreationals. They eventually pay me, however, in order to create a new request, I have to wait a week on top of the 20 day waiting period to get processed.

I made my third request a month ago, and after waiting 20 days, they expired my withdrawal request, stating that it was "a problem with the provider" and that I should make a new request and look back Monday and shall be re-added to the queue for payment processing.

It looks like if they consider you a "professional", or anyone who was able to clear their rollover without busting basically, they might make you wait 20 days and then expire your transaction and re-add you to the back of the queue to keep you in an infinite loop of never paying.

Use this site with caution (or not at all).

[PunisherIND]

Unreal, my guess is they are not going to pay unless they start getting some real pressure from people that can be loud online. My tweet and the gambling911 article don’t seem to be very far reaching…

has anyone been paid here in the last 30 days?

[PunisherIND]

this keeps getting better. hopped on chat today and i was told that my payout request had EXPIRED! i have to request a new 1000 payout and wait 15-20 business days again!

fwiw, my request was placed 1/20/2025 7:49AM, and CS told me that it expired 2/20/2025 7:49AM

is there any way that it could have expired because something on my end? or more likely their system automatically expires payment requests that are pending 1 month? CS didnt acknowledge it was their fault and implied it was on my end.

i just want to note that 100% it was their fault (or perhaps intention) to reject the payout as expired after 30 days. i just checked my electrum wallet and the request for payment is still pending in my wallet, so there's zero chance this was on my end.

this creates a massive problem if they are taking longer than 30 days to process a payout.

Hello all...

Thank you for your replies..

Anyways a quick update..

Abc has now also changed my withdrawl time line to 20 business days to complete..

So basically it will be over a month before I see a payment of $1000..

They come up with all sorts of excuses and reasons why they cannot pay..

If your are new to sports betting.and considering depositing money to abc islands or jazz..consider it a donation because if you win..they'll just find reasons to not pay..

Thank you

[DISTROYA]

Yes I know it's all about risk versus reward. I've been playing here a few years and was very happy until before Super Bowl

[PunisherIND]

UPDATE: STILL PENDING AND THEY TOLD ME "WITHDRAWALS HAVE BEEN PLACED ON A TEMPORARY HOLD FOR NON-REC PLAYERS"!!!

they told me to check back on saturday for an update.

they said there's been no update and to check back tomorrow... not holding my breath.

Great article, thanks for posting

[jgemma1]

I think that response from Jazz was in March 2024 when they were having payout issues but you’re probably right nonetheless

Thanks for posting this.


They are full of shit with their statement.

"If a group is found to be in violation of rules, then we reduce the payout limits to discourage that behavior, but ALL players are getting paid."

"We have found we had a large group of customers (35+) that were all betting the exact same thing at the same time to avoid limit rules. We could have canceled the wagers but instead we chose to follow our payout limits."


The odds on their sportsbook moves automatically after a bet is placed so it would be tough to do what they claim.
On top of this, I had a 30 second timer placed on me before my bets would go through after like a month of being there and it was that way for over 2 years with no withdrawal issues.

Now they suddenly increased that to 1 minute and withdrawal limited me at the same time as others even through it is impossible for me to do what they claim with the timer they put on my account ages ago so there's no way I am part of the group.

[Thefix13]

Seems this 1k limit is becoming standard for all lower tier books, might be time to get used to it rather than shocked by it, gross but better than being stiffed.

BETODDS.AG taking 3 weeks to payout 1k

really liked this low-key yet solid book with nice unique lines and diverse wagering options....
Until about a month ago. Took away classic interface, and you cant withdraw more than 1k via BTC and takes 3 weeks!
Be aware. Will update if i get the funds next week, which will be the 3rd week. Just so sad what these offshore books have become in a matter of just a few years.

[DISTROYA]

"worse every year" is a severe understatement.

UPDATE: STILL PENDING AND THEY TOLD ME "WITHDRAWALS HAVE BEEN PLACED ON A TEMPORARY HOLD FOR NON-REC PLAYERS"!!!

Jeez cmon Jazz, just pay the man be reasonable

[givemethebtc]

Waiting more then a month for 1g is sad. Hopefully they get you right.

[PunisherIND]

jan 9th: requested 2500 payout (already cleared kyc, this was my 3rd lifetime payout request)
jan 19th: payout rejected- reason: payout limit changed from 2500/week to 1000/week
jan 20th: requested 1000 payout
jan 30th: still pending

still pending!! live chat told me their policy is to prioritize recreational players, and that they estimate 15-20 business days for non-rec players. today would be the 19th or 20th business day, depending if you count the day of the withdrawal request.

UPDATE: STILL PENDING AND THEY TOLD ME "WITHDRAWALS HAVE BEEN PLACED ON A TEMPORARY HOLD FOR NON-REC PLAYERS"!!!

Hey all..

New here..Hopefully I am in the correct forum..

Anyways I am a canadian staying in the u.s for a while..was not able to join draftkings and other sites since all my I.d is canadian but living in the u.s.


Anyways decided to try abc islands(jazz)..

Deposited $1000 and cashed out $2600..no problem..

Deposited another $1000 and won about $4000.

Tried to withdrawl and basically they are saying I make bets like a sharp and not a recreational bettor and a bunch of other b.s.. so they refused my withdrawl and now lowered me to $1000 withdrawl per week..

I'm a 50 year old plumber who reads "pickwise" or statsalt..I would have a hard time naming 2 or 3 players on any given basketball team

Anyways..is this something the books do to eventually screw me out of my winnings?

I'm guessing since it's offshore I'm cooked?

Thank you for any replies

Cheers

If you check the Jazz issues thread you will find just about everyone who withdraws is "payout limited" as a sharp, but everyone else gets the normal advertised payout timeframe!

It's after Super Bowl. Sadly quite a few offshores have to act this way to get through the quiet season. And it's getting worse each year. You'll probably get paid though.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Thx for the info. Hope it gets cleared up for you.

[Robtheplumber]

Thank you for your advice..cheers
