    I don't have an account at WagerWeb, but got an email yesterday from someone who got my name from another book and thought I might be interested in WagerWeb. I replied:

    I'd want to hear how this was settled before depositing money at that sportsbook




    I got an email back saying:

    Yeah...

    I actually have a meeting Monday with the GM, and that’s a big question I’m looking for some insight on too..

    I’ll keep you posted…


    Just thought I'd pass this along FWIW

        These nitwits must be having an advertising push, because I've been getting at least one email a day from these guys for the last week, and sometimes two emails a day, but I've never used them before.

          Reply to the spam, and say you were going to signup, but then saw this thread. They have to know there are consequences for being thieving scum.

            Here's an email I got yesterday I just noticed. Never dealt with wagerweb, but signed up with Jazz for a contest on here. I guess this guy stole Jazz Sports client list?





            You may or may not care
            but I was layed off at Jazz Sports Last Friday.
            I’ve already started up as an agent at http://www.wagerweb.com/ …
            Why Wagerweb?
            1. <LI style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; tab-stops: list .5in" class=MsoNormal>They have been around for 15 years, and have a great reputation in Costa Rica, for being honest with players as well as employees. <LI style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; tab-stops: list .5in" class=MsoNormal>Free Payout once a month. <LI style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; tab-stops: list .5in" class=MsoNormal>Same Day payouts <LI style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; tab-stops: list .5in" class=MsoNormal>Great Credit Card processing.
            2. Gamblers Insurance - if you don't know what that is ask me.
            http://www.wagerweb.com/ Promo code: AF4674
            As an agent, I am your advocate into management there. I am also a big Customer, and will have the inside track on taking care of you, and making sure you are happy…
            They have a "super" superbowl promo, and I'll send you info on it soon...
            Tony
            P.S. You get what you pay for at SBR... and WagerWeb doesn't advertise with them. That's why so many "B+" books go out of business suddenly... (but you knew that already )

              I was kicked out of Jazz ages ago but still get emails from them from time to time. (How annoying it is to be spammed by a book that kicked you out! SIA does the same thing, as do a bunch of books that stopped taking Americans.) So it's possible Wagerweb got my address from Jazz. I didn't read any of the emails but they may still be saved in my trash folder. I'll see if "Tony Green" sent the emails.

                  Thanks for posting this. They've been crap for the past two years or so. Used to be OK out back in the day.

                    He did get away with a contact list. We've emailed WagerWeb to see if they care or employed him because of the list. Wagerweb hasn't been an honest operation the past few years.

                                    did you make parlays/teasers/pleasers or straight up bets?

                                    why would you deposit after the warning?

                                      This was about a year ago

                                      Just straight bets

                                      It is a crime to win at wagerweb

                                        I don't remember seeing a dispute about this here last year. Did you pursue the matter? Having your funds revoked after 3 wagers for no reason at all isn't the norm. I'm sure there is more to the story that is left out.

                                        To clarify what you said, you deposited, got a freeplay, made 3 bets and every penny was taken?

                                          We used other methods to secure a more satisfactory outcome, though still took a loss

                                            you need to file a complaint if those are the exact facts, this is F grade behaviour and demonstrates ww's true loser-only mentality

                                                  robmpink it doesn't matter

                                                  if someone steals your wallet and you chase him for 6 blocks and he gives you back the wallet minus $50 the crime is not theft of $50.

                                                    I think I got the same thing. An email from a guy named Tony Green.

                                                            as an update to this thread, after wagerweb confiscated 9k+ from my account, i was left w/ 1.7k+ ish balance on wagerweb. today i goto withdraw at least that portion while the issue is still being resolved and find my login access blocked. which means as of right now i am not even allowed to withdraw the 1.7k ish that they did not confiscate the 1st time.

                                                            i have reached out to dan from wagerweb to see if we can resolve at least this part amicably. if they refuse to honour even the pithy 1.7kish balance that remained after the unjust confiscation, this is indicative for F type of behaviour.

                                                                seriously this is credible dan?

                                                                ftr, i have no probs filing w/ osga but i highly doubt they're a fair entity, i don't feel like wasting any more time on this and getting verbally abused over this when i have little chance of recovering my funds. but to be insulted over the email when they have now stolen 11k+ from me is beyond ridiculous

                                                                I know who you are and I am still waiting on a response from you for what I had mentioned. You still have an issue pending with me and I am waiting for you to present your case with OSGA, just like you had the audacity to use SBR I am now waiting for you to present your case to OSGA as I had mentioned to you on our phone conversation. What is surprising to me is that you claim you were done wrong and when a solution has been presented to you, all of a sudden you are no longer interested. Is that surprising or what!!!!!



                                                                You went ahead and accused our company of fraud which you and I know quite clearly that, that is not the case. You were paid $15k based on illicit action and took advantage of the situation due to the partnership that you have with SBR.



                                                                Until you present your case to the entity that I have offered your account will remain close due to your illicit activity.

                                                                Regards, xx

                                                                    I take from this that Wagerweb doesn't feel SBR is the final word, nor should they feel that way. I can tell you personally that I was ****ed by betjam 4 years ago by an assistant manager (Herman Piso) telling me one thing then when it happened he denied it like a POS. SBR didn't give two whoots about it. Why? Betjam pays some bills. It was my fault for not getting something in writing I was told by SBR.

                                                                    Whatever forum, watchdog, etc you go to, things will always be slighted one way or another.

                                                                    Remember when the guy wagerweb sucks found a glitch and made a lot of these past posted bets? Practically all of sbr, including the mods, Bill were on the side of the scam player. Justin, who handled it disagreed.

                                                                    Didn't Bookmaker have a system glitch with if bets betting over wireless a couple of years ago? Do you think if a player filed a dispute about this they would back the player? No.

                                                                    From past chats I had with Wagerweb I could tell you they do not feel sbr has ruled on things with an unbaised judgement. Lets say there is merit to this, why would wagerweb give 2 shits about sbr?

                                                                    This post has nothing to do with what reportedly happened with Trix, rather an outline of why they don't have the best relationship with sbr.


                                                                    Play at your own risk at any book. I play at Wagerweb and don't worry. Previously I played at Bet Jam A+++++ book didn't thinking I had any worries. Funny how I get dicked over by the A+++++ book and SBR was as useful as a $3 bill.
