    Are OrbitX and Asianconnect trustable?

    Hello everyone.
    I'm using OrbitX via Asianconnect for maybe 6 month. My profit was around 0 for a long time. Now I'm trying to trade on prematch and close both sides in prematch - plus, minus or zero, no matter.
    Now I withdraw 400 Euro few days ago, and yesterday made one more withdraw request and it is still pending. Around 18-20 hours passed. They told me in support that Upline of OrbitX will check all bets for 24 hours (around 1600 bets for last week). And I start to search about such weard situations. On forum Opti says that they are no longer trustable, and other members says that it's gone back to normal.
    Can you help me and clear out this question? Is they are trustable for trading or better get out?
    My balance around 2k Euro and I beleave amount of deposits is more than amount of withdraws.
    P.S. English is not my first language, so sorry for mistakes.

    Strange, but cann't find this topic with search.

    I used OrbitX all this time, got balance around +8k euro and don't use withdraws for few last monthes. Now I begin to withdraw from time to time and they (Orbit) suspend my account "for investigation of irregular activities" (as Asianconnect said). They freeze 2.6k Euro.

    As for my tactics:
    I grab good odds from time to time and reopen bet with fair odds. And most time - I'm marketmaker, at tennis so I have to hold big balance to be marketmaker.
    Also from time to time I do arbing. And thanks God, some money goes to soft bookie and balance goes down.
    Also 2-4 weeks I begin to be marketmaker on cricket. I don't know, so maybe it was "irregular".
    When I loose 1.4k Euro on NBA (was sure that odds will go to another side) they don't suspend my account and don't give money back ))
    And there is no way they will said "fundpassing", because almost all my bets is trading, so will close before Live.

    So I still don't know what to think. On forum there is not too much actual information about Orbit now.
    I cann't imagine that they will confiscate all money. But I think it's possible. It will be fiasco ))

    P.S. As for liquidity, last 1-2 month it was around 1.3-1.4x from Betfair, so I also does not matter too much.

    Thank you, I saw this. But I thought Orbit problems were always related to stealing money in cricket and fundpassing problem.
    And my situation is different, as I naively thought ))

    Yes it does seem to mostly be fake bet issues there.

    Hard to trust them in general in the face of all those complaints though.


    I hope your problem is a simple solution.

    normally it should be unrelated. Those checks occasionally happen at AC, at least, and always take a couple of days.

    9 days have already passed. Still suspended.
    And as I see, some traders were also suspended. A lot of typical bet situations now disappeared from Betfair/Orbit, and less betting activity. I mean tennis and cricket bets.
    It may be really some big investigation. It's a shame that I have to pay money and time, and wait till they find out what they don't understand.
    I want to make a complaint to Curacao about the Orbit situation. But I still want to use them, so I really don't know what situation will be better.

    This is why a regulated betting exchange in the US is needed.

    Update.
    12 days passed (today is 13), and I asked AC about any updates. They said that account is reactivated yesterday. I'm really happy that I can use them as before.
