    Bookmaker live bet scam

    Warning to others who use Bookmaker. Their live betting section is a total scam. When you select a wager, enter an amount, youre asked to confirm or cancel. Does not matter if you hit cancel, your bet is automatically accepted no matter what. Oh you think the cancel button means cancel? No, sorry, it actually is a second confirm button. Their customer service was extremely non chalant and unhelpful. Stay away. Much better options out there now a days.

    I have not seen anyone else ever claim anything like that happens.

    Any chance at all you are mistaken about what button you clicked?

    Are you able to reproduce the error if you put in a small live test bet and click cancel?

    Maybe record the screen as doing it if so.

    Had a couple of people test it.

    Both say not only can they not reproduce this claimed error. But that there is not even a cancel button which you say you clicked.

    Both think you probably clicked the Post button, which is the only button on the live betting ticket confirm form.

    Only way to cancel is to use the X to close the confirm popup.

    I emailed them and spoke on their live chat. I need to redeposit now in order to show it. I'll record my screen. I used the mobile version, not the desktop. Can someone try on the mobile site? After you place a live bet and select post, it loads for a few seconds then the box turns blue and gives you two buttons. Confirm or cancel

    That was the first question I asked the testers.


    There is no Cancel button on mobile or desktop versions.

    Your claims make no sense. Have you even got the correct sportsbook you are calling a scam here??

    After you hit Post, your bet is placed of course!

    You cancel by clicking the X top right of confirm window.

    I did not accept any of those boxes either.

    I hit POST. And the bet went through, just like always, unless there is a price change.

    The next button is CONTINUE which really does nothing since your bet has already been placed.

    I use Bookmaker live betting all the time, especially for soccer goals, never seen these buttons you speak of, ya drunk bastard.

    Im redepositing shortly and going to show you a screen recording. Post a screenshot of what you're seeing after you hit post. I havent posted here in years. Only doing this because I know its real. Why would I waste my time if I'm making this up?

    Pre-bet:




    The price did change, since I had to take a few seconds taking a screen shot.

    So I entered the bet again and this is post bet:




    And then this is after clicking on continue:

    Why would other posters waste their time making up stuff about you being wrong?



    No one thinks you're making it up... just that you were drunk and/or imagined it.

    There is no cancel button. There never was. You were mistaken.

    You did not "mean" what you said about two buttons or a cancel button.

    After being told that there is no cancel (or confirm) buttons, now you meant to say the X eh.... no wonder the CS was unhelpful with you. I expect they just thought you were mistaken, but would not be told, too.

    By the way bgiles24, did you go to customer service with this "problem" before or after your bet result was known?

    This dude probably overbet his comfort zone and lost and is now trying to come up with crazy stories. If you live bet ever the risk is once you hit the post button that’s your bet period. No way in the world will a good book cut you slack on live betting. It’s just the way it is. It’s too quick for them to be bailing out degenerates who make up lies. Shut this thread down

    Dude, he's probably talking about the Confirm and Continue buttons that appear after clicking Post and when the screen shows the wager as "Confirmed" (see @DiggityDaggityDo screenshots). Of course that "Cancel" (or "X") button isn't going to cancel your wager. You're already committed. This lines up well with his explanation of these buttons appearing after "Post".

    It sounds like you have not understood the thread.

    But please post a screenshot of the two buttons that say "Confirm" and "Continue" you think he was actually talking about in case you have spotted something no one else in the thread did.


    Also bear in mind, the OP is now claiming they clicked the X symbol instead of Post on the bet ticket screen, and says that submitted the bet anyway.

    Same question for you as the OP... can you repeat this error?

    I've followed the thread just fine. There was just a mistake in my post. I meant "Cancel" and "Continue". I referred to @DiggityDaggityDo's screenshots which obviously don't have a "Confirm" button. It has a "Cancel" ("X") and "Continue".

    So getting that out of the way, I stand by my statement that OP is talking about these two buttons. It aligns with his explanation, and it also explains why hitting Cancel resulted in a confirmed wager - because his wager is already confirmed by the time he gets to that stage. He's confused.
