    Default Interwetten Closes Sportsbook

    Dear Sir/Madame…,


    Interwetten is setting impressive standards in the field of betting and entertainment since 20 years. In order to be geared up on top levels in the future, from now on the focus on the products of Casino and Games will be raised. Furthermore, will Interwetten put its core markets under its prime concentration, which will mean that the Sportsbook offers will not be available in all countries anymore.

    We will of course continue to provide you with grand entertainment and exciting moments for sure! Therefore, we have reconstructed and totally renewed our Casino platform which now includes many more top games which will cater for a real casino feeling. Even our Games platform will continue to maintain a real gaming experience for our valuable customers with loads of fun and excitement.

    Kind regards

    Yeah they closed shop for most countries last summer after some lady took over as director over there. There was a list on which countries could still use it in a thread a while back, but it was not a long list, typically germany, austria, denmark, portugal, cyprus and so on I think.

    Are you now saying that they have closed down for further countries? Where are you located?

    Are you sure? They use geoblock or some kind of software that makes the sportsbook section invisible for people outside certain countries. I think if you use a german proxy you will see that the sportsbook is still very much up and running.

    I think they closed shop for UK customers last summer. Most of central europe can still use their sportsbook operations. Not sure if using a proxy really solves anything - as they usually also go by the country you used in registration.

    "Most of" is an exaggeration.

    Austria
    Belgium
    Cyprus
    Czech Republic
    Denmark
    Germany
    Greece
    Hungary
    Italy
    Lichtenstein
    Luxemburg
    Monaco
    Netherlands
    Portugal
    Slovakia
    Spain
    Switzerland
    (according to poster chachi and also mentioned by other posters in other threads)

    were the only countries left with sportsbook access following the block last year. Meaning that only IP adresses from those countries could view it. There have been some posts where people could still view/access it but that is most likely because of a fluke in interwetten's system.

    Not really - that list still includes most of central europe. However, I do agree that it is weird that they closed operations to certain EU countries. Anyway... still one of my favorite books And I don't think they're leaving the sportsbook business anytime soon - they're sponsors of rcd espanyol barcelona - I doubt they'd shell out so much money on a spanish team if they wanted to get out of the sportsbook business. And yes - they're based in austria - but the online operations are offshore.

    can't bet there since last summer so i don't really care. Btw, they didn't even bother to write an email and inform me that my country is no longer eligible for their sportsbook. su*kers.

    if you interested in european leagues, there are tons of good sportsbooks. interwetten was an ordinary place and not worth mentioning.

    They're very slow to move their lines, so the odds are not always crap.

    I am happy that i have no account there, and for those who have account i suggest them to empty/close their account and find a different book.
    If they are concentrating more on casino, it means they are planning to go out of sports bet completeley in the near future. They are trying to cut down their expenses, since casino doesnt have much expense, automatic computer programs make the money. They also cut down good amount of expense buy not paying to those "from now on forbidden countries"....
    And all this funny bullshit...."...Interwetten is setting impressive standards in the field of betting and entertainment since 20 years...."

    Good probably, these were an arbers gold mine. Crap limits, but out of line odds everywhere. Loads of reload bonuses. Kept trying to make it more and awkward for UK players to play here until they had to pull the plug.

    I guess they then found out that no one bet there other than arbers.

    proly took a hugh Mystery wager that Dirk would be 2011 MVP playoffs.

    and could'nt handle the payout.








    Dirk does seem to be giving off some attitude, like .."F.U. Interwetten. How culd you post Lebron as MVP fav.





    and the mystery man and wagerer.









    guess it pays to be a multi billionaire.

    The sportsbook is available from my country but it has the worst odds I've ever seen. Only those people bet here who don't know what is money.

    You are right. I can't understand the betters who say Interwetten has bad odds. Nobody has to take bad odds. Interwetten offers a lot of great odds and when the odds for a match are not good at Interwetten take them somewhere else where the odds are better. Everybody should have more than one sportsbook account. No sportsbook can offer the best odds for every bet.
