    GR88.com - Scam?

    Hi, I have been using gr88.com for the past few weeks and I am constantly being fobbed off when making withdrawals. They simply keep my withdrawal pending for days on end (and never process it). I am trying to withdrawl £571. They have now locked my account so I cant tell whether the withdrawal has been processed and they wont respond as to why it has been locked. Any ideas? I have read some bad stories about this company.

    So how much research you have done before ever even starting with company? did you take some huge bonus? exp tells me, when many guys like you go hunting for the best maximum deposit bonus possible, you wonder why you cannot get paid.
    in one sense I often think serves you right for using crappy book. fooled by the bright lights, bells and whistles.
    on the other hand, it is not fair to you or anyone like you to be conned by a book out of your money. best thing islodge formal complaint and see how folks on here can maybe help you.

    To be honest I have self excluded myself from every other bookmaker I know. I only came across GR88 by accident and I didn't even take up their bonus. I placed a bet won and just simply want to withdraw my money which I cant at the moment. Do you suggest lodging a formal complaint with GR88 direct?

    Hi, Surely this cant be legal? I paid with my **** DC. All **** transactions are insured. Surely I cant be 1 of only a handful of GR88 customers like this? I've read on here that customers do get paid eventually. But I just don't know what to do next?

    I saw they are licensed somewhere, make a complaint , lodge a complaint with this forum and find anywhere they are advertised and complain... nt much else except try and stick with books that have record of paying without hassle

    I think the DC and CC are subject to a hold....also most books have a 2 or 3 times roll before you can cash out..if OP played 1 game he is not eligible to withdraw.

    Hi all,
    this is my first post here on this forum
    Be aware of gr88.com, they are thieves.
    Here is my story:
    I registered and received a Bonus (100 EURO FREE WELCOME BONUS).

    While I was completing the rollover, they sent me this mail:
    Hi Alberto,
    Please be informed that your account was closed for fraudulent activity and your deposit returned. The money should be with you now.
    Regards,
    Sam
    The GR88 Support Team
    Support@GR88.com

    I emailed them and they are not willing to give me an answer of its behaviour .... perhaps because I have many money on my account ?
    So I'm here sharing with you my experience hoping that Bookmakers review could do something to work out this issue.
    Thank you.

    I am currently bombarding the owner - peter@iamcorp.eu. On other forums they say he is the best person to email to get your money back. My account has now gone from locked to blocked. Its unbelievable that they can actually do this. My withdrawal was supposed to have been processed within 3 days. Needless to say this hasn't happened.

    After chasing my withdrawal up. I have got this response

    'We would like to inform you that after a standard security check and a full review of your gaming history, our security department has noticed a discrepancy in your account balance which was caused by an issue in the Sportsbook software and a change in the conversion rates (GBP to EUR). Because of this your balance was increased by 30.06 GBP which were decucted from yuor balance by our manager.
    As a result, your pending withdrawal was canceled and we kindly ask you to submit a new withdrawal in the full balance amount. We have temporarily unblocked your account so you can submit the withdrawal and it will be closed once more after this is done. Unfortunately, we cannot submit withdrawal for users. We will prioritize your withdrawal so it is processed asap.
    Thank you for understanding and please accept our sincere apologies for the delay.

    Just another excuse....

    I was in the same boat not so long back and also opened a thread on this forum. I had issues getting my withdrawal processed but did get paid every penny in the end. I was just persistent with emails and live chat which eventually worked. Just contact every day and be polite. Worked for me!

    Hi, I got my £540.00 put in the bank today. It took me 3 weeks in total. The company is an absolute joke. I think they do it so you just give up on your money. The excuses are laughable and they come one after another. But in the end I think with me they just run out of excuses. I lodged a complaint on here. AVOID GR88 AT ALL COST

    "You may have accounts at other Network websites (currently GEObet.com, Bulldog777.com and NorthernBearCasino.com) but you are only eligible to receive a First Deposit Bonus once across the network. If you open up a second account, you will not be eligible to receive a second First Deposit Bonus. Any winnings and bonus funds will be invalidated and our original deposit removed."

    Your deposit will be returned to you and winnings removed as per the terms. ! But how can you know since it is not explained in the registration form neither the first deposit bonus form and rules it is written somewhere in the sections of terms and conditions but who is reading all the terms and cond upone registration! And why they did not warn me as they clearly saw the email and the name that is their right to do to not allowed me to make new account and tell us the clients instead they waited one week i won more then 1 000 euros and they banned my account ! I want my winnings if they want can take their deposit bonus and give me my winnings please help me i do not think it is my fault ! Thank you in advance !

    The tried some putin-related promo a few weeks ago and recently they spammed with 200% offers. Stay away guys, this GR88 smells like Mobibet/oddsmatrix, 200% bonus is a clear indicator for a 200% scam.

    Lots of difficulty getting a three figure withdraw. Soon as I mentioned peter@iamcorp.eu the withdraw was processed. (Different customer service agents would give me different turnover remaining figures).

    Very helpful post #10.
