Default 10BET cancelling bets.. shameful behaviour

You probably won't have problems with them if you bet small, but beware all higher stake bettors (500+). 10Bet advertise big limits and even being "better than Pinnacle" and stuff, but all that is total BS.

Seems like they might void any big bet that would leave them in an uncomfortable position. They just say it was an error line. Even if the line was within the current market, and you take it before a movement. An hour later you might find it voided. My recent bets:

Today: Dnipro+1 1.98 (market was 1.95-1.95 before some action on Dnipro) I jump in at this point, the market moves to ~2.08-1.85 -- 1.5hour later VOIDED due to a "mistaken line".

Last week: France ML 1.556 (market was around 1.50-1.52) I make a large bet. Voided due to a mistaken line.

I've been betting online since 2000 and never seen as loose voids as these.

I do not think they deserve C+. It is obviously their policy: voiding bets when the movement goes against them. For example why Expekt (another european bookie with wide offer of sports) has C-?

I wanted to reg there (because I saw good rating) but I am passing it. They are not trustworthy.

Thank you for the post TTmopp. This kind of behaviour is no good, especially is positioning themselves as taking on all comers.

They (10 bet) have been known to void after the event. Not a good book, they dont even email you when they void. They will void anything that gives them a liability they are not happy with, Stay away.

Thanks for the warning. I won't go near the place. Voiding bets when the line moves against them. What would they say if you e-mail them to void a bet that moved against you?

Excellent information, tt. Thanks for passing it along. I can't contemplate why 10Bet would think they could get away with decisions such as these.

I think I converted those right. Just trying to help out our American friends, because I know those decimals can confuse me.

Today: Dnipro+1 1.98[screw player]

ttmop,

Management is looking into this with the bet IDs. We should have a direct response for tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.

Can you supply me with the details of the France wager?

Great that they are actually looking into this. They didn't bother to answer me when I inquired about these voidings. Thanks.

Of course I meant that the next top odds were -192, lots of books had them -200.

ttmop,

You should see an additional $700 in your account. 10bet gave you a win for the Dnipro bet. Mgt. agreed that canceling this bet, and doing it an hour later, was a mistake.

In regards to the France wager, 10bet tells me they cancelled it a few minutes after and communicated to you that they hung a series price instead of the game line.

I was only told it was a "mistake" and nothing about a series price. Maybe they should improve their CS dep. a bit ..

I agree. Especially in regards to their English-speaking CS. 10bet needs to become more efficient and get their first tier CS to give the player the benefit of the doubt.

The book has a lot of potential with its unique offerings and it's a good time to bring something new to the table, especially for US sports. Players are sick of the different brands all copying a handful of books.

Great job Bill....does this change 10Bets rating or will it stay the same? Seems like they definitely need to fix their "cancelling bets" policy whether its a mistake or not

Hello guys, does anyone has problems with 10bet on live bets ? It seems that lately they are voiding lots and lots of live soccer bets, it happened to me for the first time yesterday, even if they originally paid normally, few hours later the void the bet. I have heard lots of complains on their live bets from other punters.

First you have to wait for over 2-3 minutes for the confirmation which is so lame on live betting, and then if the goal will happen in about 1-2 AFTER THE CONFIRMATION that they accept the bet, they can easily void it !

After contacting with them here's what they told me :

Dear Customer

The offical time that the game started is 18:15 Uk time, the 7th goal was scored at the 86th minute and you placed the bet at 20:00 UK time which means obviously that it was placed after the bet.

Regards

10Bet Team

I made a live bet with them on soccer that there will not be any more goals. As soon as my bet was confirmed I checked livescore.com and tbwsport to follow the result and I saw that the goal was already scored but they did not show it in their livebet screen until few minutes later. I immidatelly contacted them about that but they replied that I made that bet before the goal was scored after I made my bet even I am 100 % sure that it was before. They really suck with that!

I know that the goal was scored after the confirmation not only from all the livescores sites ! but from people who were watching the match live on tv. 10bet has to apologize for that.

If they are pulling stunts like this just don't bother playing there, it really ain't worth the risk

There are plenty of decent bookies who bet in-running.

Disgraceful.

Clearly this book adopts the "stiff players till they complain on forums and then ... and ONLY then ... grudgingly give them a little fair play".

This book just smells bad ... run by israelis with thick israeli accenbts but if you look at their site youd think it was a purely UK outfit.

Very dubious behaviour to hide the origins of the book.

It seems cancelling wagers (@ live betting esp.) is absolutelly common there. I do not play there and probably never will. But a player betted there on ARSENAL-MBORO, live, Over 2. They voided his two bets, without reason (if we do not count a fact after his bet was accepted, there was a goal and red card). The resut was push, so nothing happened, but playing there in running is insainity.

You guys do a great job of keeping the checks and balances inline.
Keep up the good work SBR. It is a good feeling knowing that someone is looking out for us in this semi unregulated business that we are all in.
