    Mybookie rules I don't agree with
    Mybookie has stolen 4,575 out of my account on Nov 26th after voiding my freeplay winnings from a Oct 29 bet


    Here’s the theft breakdown:

    I requested a payout on November 26th. The following day they sent me an email requesting I send them ID and a Bill for verification. The next day I get an email notifying me that my payout has been declined, and that I need to call in to speak with a manager about wagering habits. I check my account when I get home, here’s the fun part.

    Before calling the manager, or giving me a heads up, they remove $4575 from my account. Leaving me with a few dollars more than my initial deposit, and a new limit of $1

    Their rule is : MyBookie enforces a maximum winning amount of $500 per free play wager and maximum odds of 200/1.However I bet multiple times on the same line for 500 or less, which does not break their stated per bet rule. They misapplied the rule to void my winnings and steal my funds.



    They are FREEROLLING players. I’ve always bet freeplays like this at MYbookie. I've lost 4-5k in freeplays over the past few months the same way. They seemed perfectly happy to let me lose, and lose, and lose,then void my bets when I finally win. Citing a rule I never broke

    here’s the way I see it:
    If MyBookie wants to void my winning freeplay bets they shouldn’t get to keep all the losing ones. Mybookie is literally freerolling players by stealing winnings after accepting thousands in freeplay losses the exact same way. If my winnings are void, then my losses should be void too.



    They are stealing from me by applying a rule incorrectly and freerolling bettors. I will file a complaint with SBR but wanted to warn others about Mybookies actions and theft regardless of my outcome.

    Let me know if you guys have any questions or need anything clarified.

    Why would you keep betting the same game if there is a $500 cap? wouldn't that make the cap pointless? Did someone tell you it was OK to do this?

      If you bet the same line multiple times it is understandable that they would treat it as one bet for the purposes of that rule.

        So if you lose you lose, and if you win its void?

        I wonder how many other people are waiting to win at MyBookie just to find out they're about to lose

        Sadly seems like there is always a negative MyBookie post on forum.

              Hate on MyBookie all you want but from the sounds of it you misread their terms for free plays. That's on you, not them.

                  If you go into your history, you should be able to pull up the other wagers from freeplays that you have placed to show evidence that they were not voided, and your current bets should be honored.

                    Why aren't my posts being added. I keep getting a message saying my posts need to be approved by a moderator. The two responses I made in this thread yesterday still aren't here.

                    What is preventing my posts from being approved?

                      MyBookie sucks.

                      But technically I'd think it is: If you lose it's void and if you win it's void. It's just if you lose, it doesn't matter anyway. It's not like there's any way to know the difference, I don't think OP or most players would be chasing down if they broke the rules on bets they lost anyway

                        Maybe your SBR screen name? Or maybe your first post is a bitch and moan about a known shit book? Mybookie is well known to let players freeroll themselves, which from reading your posts sounds like what happened. No way in hell you will get a losing bet voided.

                          Our algorithm automatically identifies some new accounts to be put on post moderation.


                          But you have not made any other posts in this thread other than the ones you can see.

                          No responses have not been approved or deleted.

                            I wish I could but the mybookie history only goes back a month. My history would show that I lost several thousands of dollars in free plays the exact same way . How can they have it both ways? If my bets are void fine but then the losses are void too?

                            Regarding the name was just livid when I made the account name and wish my name was a little more normal. Just couldn't believe that they were doing this after i've lost thousands the exact same way over months and months.

                              They probably had no idea you made the winning or losing wagers until you tried to make a withdrawal and they reviewed your account. I see where you are coming from but unfortunately you have zero chance of recovering the winning or losing free plays with this book. My advice would be to withdraw what they will let you and move on to better book. As enticing as the 100% and 200% free plays are, they are not worth it in the long run. Most of the books offering these outrageous bonuses are scams and will bring out the magnifying glass looking for any and every reason not to pay out.

                                PD77,

                                I agree but am not a winning bettor. So honestly thought was safe playing at mybookie.

                                Am okay being an overall loser just think books should pay when I finally get a little bit back

                                  Well at least you got that part right. MyBookie is a good deposit-only book. Withdrawals at MyBookie not so much.

                                  Instead of a Withdrawal button there it should say “Ready to get Fukked?”

                                      Why play there with so much issues though. Because of there bounes? Why do you think they offer such extream bonuses because they don’t plan on paying on most of them. Very good books that offer 100 percent bounes that are good. I love gt bets when your with them at first. After a little though better to move on to the top books as gtbets stops with the good bounes even if you been there a long time. 100% is what I mean buy a good bounes. They don’t offer great bounes after the first two. But good book. In my opinion there should be at least 100% match up to 150$ 2 times a year to losing betters that’s it.

                                          MyBookie has its issues, but in this case, you misread their terms. A lot of books have this sort of rule - a cap on winnings stemming from a freeplay. It's always intended to be an overall cap, not a cap per individual wager. Breaking the freeplay up into multiple wagers isn't a loophole, and that really should be obvious.

                                          With that being said, they shouldn't have voided ALL of your wagers. It seems like you should have been paid up to the $500 cap at least. I think you have a legit complaint there.

                                            If you had a valid complaint you wouldn't have to make the name "mybookiesteals", and to tell us "this is where it gets interesting". It isn't interesting, none of it, and mybookie didn't steal from you. You're a moron, and got caught. Who cares if you lost in the past this way? Thats not them freerolling you, thats you trying to take shots at them and getting your funds confiscated. Good. No one needs anything clarified, this is your issue, I doubt anyone here hardly cares, why would they? Not only does it not have anything to do with any of us, but it isn't a stain against mybookie, or anything that would lead anyone here to need further info to make sure that we're okay. Not looking to help a shot taker that can't just put out the information at hand at let it speak for themselves. The fact you're making it into a spectacle means you're a clown. Makes sense.

                                              Why are you so sure this is someone who was knowingly taking shots and who got caught? I didn't get that impression at all. To the contrary, it seems like someone who either never read the rule or interpreted it incorrectly. If anything, his admission that he's done this before and lost indicates that he truly didn't understand. We do see a lot of cheats who come on here and look to rain hellfire down on the book that "wronged" them, but I'm not yet ready to mark OP as one of them.

It isn't interesting, none of it, and mybookie didn't steal from you. You're a moron, and got caught. Who cares if you lost in the past this way? Thats not them freerolling you, thats you trying to take shots at them and getting your funds confiscated. Good. No one needs anything clarified, this is your issue, I doubt anyone here hardly cares, why would they? Not only does it not have anything to do with any of us, but it isn't a stain against mybookie, or anything that would lead anyone here to need further info to make sure that we're okay. Not looking to help a shot taker that can't just put out the information at hand at let it speak for themselves. The fact you're making it into a spectacle means you're a clown. Makes sense.
                                                I already explained the name.

                                                So you think its fair for a book to accept wagers for over 4,000 dollars in freeplays and take them as losses but when the player finally wins they can void the only time you win?

                                                So what was my "shot taking" ? Don't see how it is even remotely close to me taking a shot they accepted 4,000 in freeplays losses betting the the exact same way. If all my losses are valid why are only my wins void? Mybookie is the one taking shots at players using this rule to freeroll players.

                                                Its win win for Mybookie so please explain how I took a shot at them?

                                                Is your post trolling me? If so well played

                                                  If anything it was a mistake on my part but personally it seems like Mybookie is using this rule freeroll players when they actually win.

                                                  How is it fair to make me complete the rollover and then void the freeplay that the rollover was based on. ( If the bet was going to be voided I didn't have anything to rollover)

                                                  They basically left me with my deposit and few dollars. If anything players should appreciate the warning as I am out the money and hopefully will prevent someone else from being freerolled by mybookie in the future.
