    Help Needed- Betus Closed my account

    I made 2 deposits of 1000$ each and placed them on various teams.
    I made around 8000$, with 6000 in clear winnings and betus closed my account for no reason saying that I am pro player.
    Is there any way I can recover those loses?
    Can you please point me as to what I can do? I just need my winnings back and I do not really care of them closing my account.
    I have screenshots of my accounts showing my value.

    Did you get your $2000 back or did they steal that too?

    What bets did you make for them to label you as non-recreational?.. This is such a joke though... To label anyone has "non-recreational".. WTF??? Are you kidding me... Someone please explain this in detail.. Nobody gambles for fun.. its all about the $$.. so what dictates recreational vs non-recreational... Such a joke...

    There are absolutely ways to determine pro vs non-pro and it has nothing to do with money won or lost. Some of the dumbest people can go on a 5 game winning streak. Has everything to do with WHAT you are betting, and the type of lines you hit.

    Betus has been around along time, it's unusual that a book that's been doing business 20yrs would pull something like you have described

    It doesn't really matter how they come to such a conclusion. They can close your account whenever they please. But the key point is that they can't be allowed to do it retrospectively. Genuine winnings must be paid.

    Or was there something dodgy about the bets placed?

    Agree harebba! Book has every right to refuse further action but must payout all winnings on any line that was hung!
