    INTERTOPS is turning into a scam!

    BEWARE of INTERTOPS scam. Time is tough for low tier books, so they try to scam.

    they offer 500usd free bet if you wager 5000 on NFL. After completing the requirements they refused me the 500 free bet, just because they can. the customer chat support confirmed that I was eligible prior to wagering, but later on they cheated me.

    So how is it fair???

    Obviously not true, but you should post that chat here and or file a complaint with SBR.

    I ment to say true, SBR is a sponsor of more than the 10 banners i see at the top of my screen? Anyway thier $20 free bet had like a 20 times RO, what did this free $500 one have?

    500 free bet has x16 rollover with the MAXIMUM cashout of 5000.


    The point is - even with the stringent rollover requirements, they still strugle to stay in business and have to scam customers whenever they can.

    That is their reasoning behind scamming me:

    As stated in our Terms and Condition in rule 2.6. “Intertops reserves the right to exclude customers from certain or all bonus promotions without prior notice. No correspondence will be entered into.”

    Played their for over 5 years, and they are far from a scam book. Scam books are betus and sportsbook.com. Intertops will not stiff you, big difference.

    I handled a near-identical complaint on this exact issue: a player denied his earned $500 bonus after meeting the NFL rollover requirement. In that case, the player lost because he was likely multi-accounting, and deposited with an account not in his name.

    Did I handle this dispute?

    Justin,

    With all due respect, it is disappointing to see you make this assumption: '...the player lost because he was likely multi-accounting...'

    This is not true. I have/had only one account. There is no evidence of multi-accounting whatsoever. So this accusation is essentially wrong.

    Now let's take a look at the second accusation: '...and deposited with an account not in his name.'
    I cannot dispute this because it was my mistake to do so. However, here is an intersting thing: Intertops were happy to accept and book THAT deposit method for more than a year. Intertops also verified my account and processed a couple of withdrawals back to THAT method. SO when and why did it become a problem? when I started to win too much? NOW if it became a problem, all of a sudden, why not ask me to deposit via an account IN MY NAME? (which I can do) rather than scamming me?

    Exactly how do you deposit into a account not in your name unless you control that account.

    Would you like my info on a couple of accounts so you can accidentally make a deposit into them.

    fact is you were multi accounting

    Fact is you dont understand this is against the rules

    you were lucky enough to get payouts on your 2nd account without the book realizing it.

    im sure you were accepting bonuses on this account also

    Most books including Intertops have a rule against depositing with an account that is not in your name. This is a reasonable rule, because these types of transactions are very susceptible to charge-backs. The account used to deposit belonged to a player that was already flagged for risk/fraud, and the owner was no longer permitted to play with Intertops. Why would a banned player fund your account?

    Justin, thank you for your time to reply.
    I guarantee you, and would provide any evidence (in a private message) to support my word, that 'the player' was not banned or flagged for risk/fraud. It is just a simple mistake.

    Why don't we resume discussions with Intertops. Send me an email with what you have. I can't promise anything since the 3rd party rule was violated, but they might relent if the other person was not at risk.

    You're certainly free to share anything about your dispute or what I discuss with you on the forums, but I find that books are more agreeable to compromise in private, than in response to a public thread.

    Scam books don't withhold bonuses. They withhold payouts. Not a scam.

    A friendly reminder: most books do not allow you to make a deposit from an account not in your name. If you deposit with a CC, and the name on that card is a different person than the name on the account, you will have problems.

    Intertops has done nothing wrong here at all.

    Obviously a bonus whore that made a mistake, how can you be so stupid to use one of your fake IDs by mistake.
    Really nothing to see here, this just doesn't happen to normal players without multiple IDs because there is just no reason to ever deposit from an account not in your name otherwise. You idiot.

    You are such an asshole really, you complain that you don't get a bonus if you deposit not in your name.
    Unbelievable that people like you exist, yea you can try such stunts silently and say "ok, didn't work"...but coming to a forum and making a fuss when it didn't work, these kind of people are the very worst.
