Default Betmania gone haywire ??

Here's what I am seeing:

The website has changed. My balance currently shows as $239,638 (which is just slightly off.) You can't navigate properly. The regular phone number doesn't work. I get a "This number is no longer in service" recording.

Lucky for them this is happening now and not at some important time like when football is gearing up.

The number or the website isn't working at this time I see Mudcat. The sad part is that I can't find another number at this time, and the only other email address I stumbled acrossed was this one: fredmarketing@betmania.com

Let me see what else I can find for you.

Yeah I've been talking to Fred and sent him an e-mail earlier.

Did you like how I tried to channel Bob Uecker up there? How's this:

$239,638 - "Juuuuuust a bit outside."

BetMania (SBR rating D) moving offices and software. The sportsbook moved from Pavis to Rohrmoser, Costa Rica this morning and expects to be online by 3:00pm today. BetMania has also moved from ASI software to new platform, MXA Systems.

Any change in ownership/backing or just an office change?

That seems like good news for people who have been waiting for payouts, some of whom have even speculated about them just shutting down. Moving into a new office and upgrading (theoretically) the software seems like they are planning for a future.

To my simple way of thinking, it seems like good news.

Hopefully they'll get things tuned up all across the organization.

Not with this office change but with the previous. No more BOS owners. We are going to meet ownership soon but to date he is an anonymous person.

They were in the outskirts of Pavas in a turnkey operation in a 2nd floor of an old building , several sportsbooks in the last 2 months have migrated from them due to the lack of tech support and the internet going down often

Looks like there are more people. Jim has been great at OSGA and Fred seems like a nice guy, but Mo.. he should be flogged out the country. How could you hire someone like him. They have supposed to have moved.. but they still are not up and our account numbers do not work. Anyone want to join anyone on a flight to Costa Rica? Ask the for dinner at least for the amount of money I have there.

Their number works now, but they still hang up on you. They apologize for moving. At least they are answering the phone. Hope they can get the payouts. Still hang Mo.

Thanks, will fix that spelling. They are using BetBones Max software...hopefully they are using their own copy.
