Default 12bet has limited my account

I have never heard that an Asian company limit customers.

I can't bet more than 50 Euros. After talking with them have never wanted to recognize this limit, and they told me that is something for all European customers. This comment makes no sense but they believe that if they say that I am going to stay quiet.

I was very surprised at this situation and logically I have decided to withdraw my money. After 5 days I have received my withdrawal.

anyone has experienced something similar with them?.

Never had a problem with 12bet, paid me exceptionally fast and no limiting beyond the stadard selection limits you can see (thousands of $s on many things).

has you been limited in some Asian company more?

I use 188bet, sbobet and mansion88 with no problems.

I see that asiabet88 have same odds of 12bet, but i don't know if they are solvents.

A friend of mine also told me recently that he has been limited to 50 Euro from 12Bet. I will ask him if he can tell me more about the circumstances.

Anyway this limit is definately NOT valid for all european customers, that was really a ridiculous staement.

I know about limits at Mansion88, 188Bet and recently 12Bet (but I am still not sure if these 50 Euro limits have any special reason for example betting on obvious wrong odds).

I have never heared of limited SBOBET accounts (an exception is HeeeHAWWWW who wrote here recently to be limited to 1000 Euro stakes per soccer game).

They didn't give me any reason about this limit. I can only say that I have never bet on wrong odds and that I didn't have a void bet with them.


do you know what type of limits that apply 188bet and mansion88?.

Different kind of limits. A typical Mansion88 limit is 400 Euro for everything.

The problem of 188Bet is that if they decide you are a pro (funny because anyway they are a book more or less only for pros , so why complain about pros?) then you have to pay a fee for every withdrawal.

Anyway I prefer SBO and 12Bet. Did you win a lot with this 12Bet account which is limited now?

Yes i won a lot with them, especially lately.

I think they evaluate clients who have long term benefits.

Also maybe they don't like customers that deposit and withdrawal every week. This has a cost to them.

i was limited as well. 12bet are apparently getting rid of a certain group of customers. ask them to call you for a solution, and they did for me (a solution which might not be satisfactory to all, but definitely was for me). limits with 12bet itself will not be lifted though.

They offered my open a account with IBCBET, the problem is that they only accept bank transfer. They don't use moneybookers or Neteller.

Yes, that's true. Depending on which intermediate banks are involved the transfers can cause some additional transaction fees.

Of course there is still the risky possibility to use agents to use an IBCBET account.

188 limits depends on you upon registration... in 12bet, perhaps it was due to consecutive requests of their members using the said currency to limit their bets that's why they come out with that decision.. I'm not that pretty sure though..

Just a thought of mine..

Keep us updated though.. Good luck!

Do you have some good experiences with those agents. or any?
I have a feeling that most of them are scammers but one out of 10 should be ok.

I was thinking, maybe they placed the limits because of high bettors. Coz as far as I know, most of the people complaining are those who bet 4-5 figures per match. It would just be logical for the book to limit their members otherwise, it could be the downfall of the business.

@ Teddy
I don't think it would matter whether your bets are placed on live or early markets and it is most likely that they play on soccer events since 12BET has been known for live soccer matches (besides good deposit/withdrawal)

I win nothing

I played a few pre match and a few Live betting.

I guess they limit me because I´m only a recreational player and not an professional

I have been limited at 12Bet, but that was six or seven months ago. My limits are still much higher than EUR 50.
It has not been a great loss for me though, SBOBet are an all round superior book.

My limit was £150 per bet and £300 per match and at the weekend i emailed them asking to increase this limit. They emailed me back 2 days later and said because i was a loyal customer my limits have been increased to £300 per bet £1000 per match.

But SBOBet are the winners here my limit was £1000 per match on big leagues so i emailed them and asked to increase my limits they said yes so now my limit on big leagues is £20k per bet £75k per match.
