Default WARNING: BetEd - Shittiest bookie on the net

My story with BetEd
First off I see that they have 50% bonus on your first bet up to $250 so I bet $500 and I win. However, the bonus is not added to me since they do not accept over/under just moneyline or vice versa on the bet. That sucked bigtime but it is listed under t&c so I accepted that.

Anyways, when I send this email to the support they add 15% bonus to my account (75$ in this case) and after that I realize that they have shitty odds so I withdraw and expect my bonus to be forfeited. But this withdrawal never occured and when I logged on I see that they have cancelled my request without telling me about it and I ask why and they say I havnt fulfilled the wager requirement. So I say to them that they can forfeit my $75 bonus, just let me cashout the resten and everything shall be fine. BUT they tell me that they cannot forfeit the bonus and my money is locked with them until I wager 5x deposit+bonus = 2875$.

This sucks ever bigger since I do not wish to make -EV bets with their shitty odds but I kinda accepted this and thought that I can play on their casino

Terms for bonus:
Quote:
As stated above, standard rollovers are 5X for Sportsbook and 10X for casino. Because the Bonus Status page considers that $1=$1, rollover is calculated on a 1:1 ratio for Sportsbook and a 1:2 ratio for casino (because rollover for a typical bonus for Casino is two times that of Sportsbook). Quite simply, every dollar wagered in the Sportsbook counts towards a dollar of rollover while every dollar wagered in the Casino counts towards 50 cents of rollover.

Example: Deposit $100 via Instant Check and get a $10 Reload Bonus. Your new balance would be $110 and your rollover would be 5X that total (or $550). If you make a $50 wager in the Sportsbook, your new rollover balance would be $500. If you made a combination of $50 worth of bets in the Casino, your new rollover balance would be $525
My interpretation of this is that I can use a combination of casino and sportsbetting. So I played at their casino betting $10 per hand and lost from $1575 down to $1270 with just maybe $500 in wagering and then I decide that Im gonna bet bigger and hope to catchup so bet $50 bets and then i first tie and then lose 7 bets in a row and then finally after maybe $1200-1500 wagering, I quit at $970 balance, pissed off about my shitty luck. (Can add that im not a recreational casinoplayer and I only play optimal BJ with charts).

THEN i ask them how much ive wagered and they tell me that this casinowagering does NOT contribute towards the bonus. I think this behaviour and their stupid rules is the worst piece of crap ive ever seen.

I warn everyone about BetED and I wish they go bankrupt.

casino do not count towards the rollover...that is standard practice. but they should let you withdraw your money with a fee. well, this is not the first time i saw complaints from them. i hope you won't lose all your money during the rollover and i hope you get paid.

According to their rules, here it is in a nutshell IMO
Quote:
Example: Deposit $100 via Instant Check and get a $10 Reload Bonus. Your new balance would be $110 and your rollover would be 5X that total (or $550). If you make a $50 wager in the Sportsbook, your new rollover balance would be $500. If you made a combination of $50 worth of bets in the Casino, your new rollover balance would be $525.
It sounds like you met the rollover requirements. If you need some assistance with this issue, please fill out this complaint form and one of us will inquire to them on your behalf.

The subliminal message by Beted is quite clear: debet.

We already knew they used a technicality ('signing up in CR') to steal 18K from a winning player; refusing, in that case, to pay out on wagers placed from the US. Stay away from these creeps.

El Helado Patata,

Unless they have a different set of rules for that promotion your casino play should count. If you email us your details we can look into it further.

I dont know... I have played with them and haven;t had any problems. They even have a section in your account that calculates how much rollover you have left. There must be some communication problem. What does his rollover calculation state?

Thanks BigBoyDan for the heads up. El Helado Patata, I have emailed 1x2 again on your issue. They had told me it was resolved, obviously not. I will stay on them about this issue.

Hey Josh. Thanks for the help. 1 day after I emailed you I actually got the cash, just $19 missing so now i dont bother with it any more, thanks again!

Regarding BetED, I did fill out the form but did not recieve an email from you guys. Been awhile. Maybe it was spamfilter or sum thou.

The reason why I have had sum problems with a few bookies (1x2, BetEd, partially BetAndGame etc) is probably because I have had cash at probably 40 different bookies. So I believe that is the answer to your question Diamond.

all my books require faxing too if u use credit cards. I don't see why anyone would have problem with it unless they used stolen credit cards or used someones without authorization.

I did divert his post into a new thread and the question was answered many times already. So hopefully we can assist him with his issue.
