Glad to hear it! Well done for pursuing/keeping the board updated with actions – some valuable lessons for all from this story methinks.

I'm not done yet, I want accountability. They didn't even contact me to say my account was reopened and my funds were available for withdrawal, and they didn't even pretend to be sorry/say they made a mistake.

Their excuse for suspending my account is either gross incompetence or using whatever means to try strong arm customers into giving up so they maximise their profits, neither of which are acceptable imo.

Yeah betbarn just said sorry for the delay (after 3 months of RV hounding them). Didn't bother replying

Colossalbet thieved $600 from me and no power or regulator gave a stuff when I contacted them with all evidence required to show they'd lied

Do tell...

Who did you contact?

The more pertinent question is who Colin contacted to thieve $600 from adammania.

I'm not a gambling man but if I was my money would be on Aladdin, Ronnie Biggs or The Professor from Money Heist.

In February, Colossalbet did not honour the first past the post promotion because the promotion “was for recreational punters only.” Gentleman Roy was first past the post but a protest for Jacquinot was upheld. They refused to pay me out on the basis that I was not a recreational punter which is pure BS.

Racing NSW whom they are registered under and other relevant heads had no interest in doing anything.

Oh...

I thought someone at Colin has approached you in the car park of their HQ and stole your wallet.

So they 'thieved' you because they didn't any a promotion? Now that wasn't anywhere near as exciting as I was expecting.

Yeah this.

Has anyone had to send in Personal Bank Statements ?

Is this normal practice? Anyone got experience with this?

Yes I have for a few places. Mostly the scummy ones, and then some others for potentially legitimate reasons.

Overall, unfortunately it is something they can request to see and as their terms and conditions state, if you don't comply with their investigations your probably not going to get paid.

Industry in a really bad spot at the moment.

Yeah Ladbrokes won´t pay up. If you lose you won´t have an issue. One and done with them years ago.
They spend more time looking for reasons not to pay than doing anything else. So that means you should avoid NEDs too. They are the same bunch of Crooks I believe.

Again, In my experience.

BEST:

TAB
POINTSBET
BET365
UNIBET

Stick with them.

Sportsbet, Midas and Bluebet are decent and easy but will limit quickly.

Betfair and Pinnacle I have never dealt with.

you can move Unibet down with the others, Kambi operated books have the worst rep in the entire world.

tbf all 4 in capitals limit quickly, just as every single other book does. They all offer unique markets though which makes them a little above the Midas/Blue Bets of the world.

Unless a book is refusing to pay you and you have done zero wrong (think Wishbet) then they shouldn't be making these fraud lists.


Ladbrokes are no good for sport but their racing offering is almost the best for pros, constantly take opinions which market greatly needs.
