BETNOW STEALS OVER 2K FROM MY ACCOUNT

[fishhead]

i wonder why betnow changed. i thought they had a good thing going.

Guessing completely new management/owners

 

[mrmcnasty]

Looks like Betnow has raised total payout amount for crypto. Allowing up to 10k instead of 7k

Is there any update for those w complaints?

I havent heard any good news since the slew of posts... High level fuckery is afoot at that place. 0% of 10k is the same as 0% of 7k

0% of 10k is the same as 0% of 7k

I still have $900 there and since it’s the 1st I can withdrawal. I’ll report back

Quick update on my BetNow case + a warning to others

What happened: After months of betting pre-game sides/totals (no live, no past-posting, no bots), BetNow graded the wagers as wins, let the balance sit, and then—when I prepared a withdrawal—retroactively voided a big chunk of my history under the catch-all of “line moves/syndicate” and “fraud.” They have never provided a line-item accounting or timestamps tying my bets to any alleged group plays.

Where I am now:

My deposit was returned, but my winnings were confiscated.

I’ve asked—formally and in writing—for a complete ledger of the voided tickets and their rationale. No response with evidence.

I’ve filed with BMR and am documenting the corporate trail (the Costa Rica company behind operations) so I can escalate wherever it’s practical. (Yes, I know CR doesn’t regulate books, but the paper trail still matters for pressure/visibility.)

Why this matters to everyone else:

We’re seeing multiple, consistent reports of balances being seized after rollover/payout requests, all with the same vague “line move/syndicate” language and without proof.

Changing crypto limits from 7k → 10k is window dressing. 0% of 10k is still 0.

If a book can void months of pre-game tickets after the fact, that isn’t “risk management”—it’s a one-way door.

My advice: Until BetNow/SBG provides transparent evidence or reverses course, treat them as a no-pay. If you still play there, keep balances near zero and screenshot everything. Better: pull out and play elsewhere.

If BetNow eventually supplies a proper, verifiable accounting or pays what’s owed, I’ll post it here immediately. But right now the pattern is clear enough: avoid BetNow.

I also will be submitting a withdrawal today. I have just under 3k in there. I maxed out my withdrawal limits in early Sept and when the trouble started I stopped placing wagers. I should have an update no later than tomorrow.
Losing 3k would suck but I've had over 20k in there so I actually feel fortunate.
I'll let you guys know what happens.

Well I have an update and it's a rather annoying one. They asked me to reverify my account. Kind of lame but fine, no problem. I went to reverify and it failed, and it failed again. I got on chat and spent 2 hours trying to get their verification software to work. After all that time it still didn't work and I'm going to have to try again later. Very frustrated right now.

Did you ever actually get it verified?

 

[ferrisdamen]

Did you ever actually get it verified?

Yes, but that was not before my balance for confiscated, it was after.

Hopefully if you clear the ID verify you have no obstacles to withdrawing.

Godspeed!

I still have $900 there and since it’s the 1st I can withdrawal. I’ll report back

Just for documentation purposes here I can confirm my $900 was received.

Obviously for anyone reading this, this should be taken with a grain of salt until other payout issues are resolved.

I will also be voicing these concerns the next time they call me.

Account is verified and payout has been initiated. Now lets see if they pay..

 

[Ace7550]

Betnow paid me. Just giving information here. Not telling anyone the place is safe. Until Ferrisdamen gets paid I wont be playing there.

Very glad to hear it Ace.

Nothing new on my end and I have received very little support from any of the watchdogs on my dispute.

Not giving up.

Good luck to all.

They’ve always been under the same ownership as long as I can remember. Even going back to when BetRoyal was part of this group.

I believe that years ago SBG was marketed more towards non US and BetNow was marketed towards Americans. That’s the reason for two separate shops. Otherwise their lines and platform etc were all identical.

BAUS

Exactly

Place safe to send $1,000 for nice bonus?

Place safe to send $1,000 for nice bonus?

No, unless it’s the 25 percent cash. Your rollover will be rather large for a sportbook that only pays out $7,000 in crypto per month. With outrageous fees on ACH and check. I recommend sending an amount that if you won every single wager, you’d be able to withdrawal your entire balance. BetNow was once a peaceful town. Now it’s crawling with bandits and outlaws for a staff team looking to screw a winner over
