actually, talking about pinnacle, in another topic here some guy's pinnacle account was hacked and emptied by banking methods that should not have been available in his account. pinnacle clearly made an error, but it took, what was it, three months? for them to see that and refund the amount.

188bet should be more responsive, but not only 188bet, almost every book (also a lot of other companies in general worldwide) i know at one point or another make screw-ups, and then are very very slow in solving them. no answer after two days is not that special, for some reason very very few books out there find it worthwile to invest in decent CS.

if you have never earlier in your gambling career had any issues with a book which took way too long to be resolved you are very very lucky (or you have not been betting a long time)

Juice, I wrote what I wrote based on experience with them. I bet with them back in the day, and I know other players who play with them. I am not denying you are having a serious problem, and like I said SBR would like to help. Thousands of players play with them, and I don't know of any payout complaint with them that has ever been sent to SBR. The reason they are not rated highly here at SBR is that we went through the Pointbet issue. Pointbet had a seriously good reputation internationally and offered similar betting, but in the end they went down. Because of that, our view of low juice asian soccer books is very cautious.

Nor have I Lakerfan. I believe they are owned by an Asian cigarette mogul, and after thinking about it for a second. I haven't heard of anyones limits being cut there either.

I noticed that a 188bet representative just became a member on the SBR forum minutes ago, so hopefully we can get your issue resolved quickly sir.

I know a person who is limited there and also has to pay additional fees for every withdrawal but he really won a lot and can be considered as an exception.

How about sending SBR a complaint form and then STFU and wait for your money.

I assumed he has Durito after Lakerfan mentioned it in post #38. However if he hasn't as of yet then I will invite him to fill out one once again.

hey juice, carefull with that!!!!

As i told before, they might block you if they find that from the same IP computer you have signed multiples accounts. I understand your frustation but what you've done it sin't going to solve the problem.

Fill the complaint at SBR and wait until next week to see if they really sent the money to your bank

ok, i understand but even it's something forbidden if you read most terms and conditions of every bookie, the exception is betfair that lets you open as many accounts as you like

Hope you get this thing solved.
