    Globet still taking losing bets after games are over

    Globet (SBR rating D+) still taking losing bets after games are over

    The sportsbook is known for holding wager orders until after the sporting event is over. The practice is most common with bets placed in the late evening. Globet requires that all wagers are manually confirmed before the player officially has a bet and claims its staff is sometimes unable to confirm all wagers before the office closes each day. This leaves players wondering if their wager on early morning games are active. Globet has the obvious advantage of accepting or denying the wager after the game has started or finished. The book does not employ a night staff.

    Player:
    I also had the problem with late hours bet when they accepted the next morning when the bet had already lost!!!They replied to me that i should have send them a message (via their site) before the start of the game and request to cancel the bet!

    Are You Sure You Didnt Bet At Cascade Sportsbook That Sounds Like My Case When Lenny Stole 660 Dollars From Me.

    He Leaves A Game On The Board 15 Minutes After It Starts Then When It Loses He Says You Had Action Even Though Our Written Rules Say

    (all Wagers Will Be Accepted Up Until The Posted Starting Time Of The Event)

    This Is The Lowest Form Of Life Sportsbooks Taking Shots At The Players Its A Nice Racket Leave The Game Up Then Watch And See If It Loses Then Tell The Player We Accepted The Bet.if The Bet Wins You Say Hey You Bet The Game 15 Minutes After It Started We Are Not Going To Honor That Bet.

    This isnt quite correct. Their rules allow you to email them cancelling a bet if it isnt acepted within 15 minutes.

    This clearly isnt ideal, but if a player doesnt want a bet to stand he does have the option on cancelling.

    There is no need to leave it open until game time

    to be fair to them, yes.

    but it is still a ridiculous rule ofcourse.
