Worldbet.com Withdrawal

[PhilJack]

Firstly, I would never have used their site if I'd known what I know now. It is only by searching the internet since using them that I have realised how terrible they are.

Anyway, I requested to withdrawals of 25 and 78 EUROS via moneybookers.

I had an email off them requesting confirmation of the withdrawal (very unprofessional). I have confirmed this withdrawal, and emailed them several times, but have had no response.

God knows where my money is, it says on my account statement that it is 'unconfirmed', yet I have emailed them so many times but nothing is happening. There is no phone number for them.

I notice from reading the forums that people have had problems with this company in the past but I can't find any recent threads about them.

Can anyone help?

Cheers in advance.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum

Worldbet (SBR Rated F) is notorious for not answering their emails or paying it's players at all. In fact I only know of 1 reported payout from this establishment in 2008 (see below).

On 2-01-08 SBR poster Killman reported that he received payment from Worldbet (SBR rated F).

If you need some assistance with your dispute, please feel free to fill out a complaint form and one of us will inquire to them on your behalf in order to find out whats going on.

Thank you I will do that.

How on earth is this company still allowed to keep trading then? They are breaking the law and are criminals, how come they haven't been closed down?!

Because they're in a jurisdiction that doesn't care, so who would you suggest closes them down? Whether they're even breaking the law where they're hosted is probably debatable.

[PhilJack]

Why close them down?!

Surely what they're doing is illegal?! How can it not be?

Guys, I 've just received my funds! I can't believe it, I'm over the moon.

I emailed them this morning practically begging them for it and hey presto I've got it.

Wow... glad you got paid!

I guess you must have beginners luck on your side or something sir, because retrieving funds from this book is virtually impossible from all I've read about them. Anyways, glad to see you received your funds. I'll make a note of this for future reference.

It came as a shock I can tell you. I had an email from Gamebookers saying I'd received funds, so imagine my surprise when I found it was from worldbet!

I'd requested another 2 withdrawals late last night since I started this thread for combined total of 150 EURO, so altogether they have paid me out 253 euro. I just cleared my account because there is no point betting with them if they're not going to pay.

Safe to say though I shan't be using them again.

I've been paid by them with no problem, but it was awhile ago. Suppose I should try a withdrawal now.
