[WARNING] All Jazzsports.ag, Looselines, ABCislands and Betodds Issues

I am then told that:
[21:20] Lola Lennon: Yes, I saw that you confirmed you had sent docs a while back, years ago
[21:20] Lola Lennon: I has asked the Security team to review because I saw a UK address.
[21:23] Lola Lennon: However, as a resident of the UK you should not have an account with the site. Unfortunately, the previous administration did not proceed with the necessary security protocols for UK accounts. However, we have a new management team that has been trying to correct many of the issues that have come up.
[21:24] Lola Lennon: What should have been done, once the UK location was confirmed, was close your account and refund/return your initial deposit.
[21:25] Lola Lennon: I checked your history and I show that we have paid out $1500 on top of your deposit total. Therefore you have received all your deposits back.

I replied:No, you are not getting away with this. When I signed up I asked you if you allow UK customers, I was told yes. I then made deposits and sent in documents. You happily accepted all my deposits. You can not come here 5 years later and say "sorry, we have changed management since. Only your deposits will be returned", and confiscate my 55,000 USD balance.

The conversation goes on:
[21:28] Lola Lennon: We will be closing the account officially. We regret this situation but the fact is that your account should have been closed. If you reside in the UK you can only gamble on sites licensed for UK services and that is not the case.
[21:28] me: I have done nothing wrong here.
[21:29] Lola Lennon: We know this is the last thing you want to hear, but we are currently fixing some issues that were not dealt with correctly. But truth of the matter is that we do not accept UK players.
[21:30] Lola Lennon: I know that, it was a problem created by the previous administration and this is why we need to start taking measures now.
[21:30] me: This will not be the end of this.
[21:30] Lola Lennon: We have returned all the deposit funds that were sent to us.
[21:31] Lola Lennon: We are proceeding and cancelling the account and invalidating all action in the account, as it should have been done from the start.
[21:32] Lola Lennon: That is the procedure when we close an account due to jurisdiction.
[21:33] Lola Lennon: We are sorry this has been the case, but the decision is final.
[21:33] Lola Lennon: I escalated to the security team and to the new management specifically and carefully reviewed your deposit and withdrawal total in order to determine if any funds were still owed.
[21:34] Lola Lennon: At the moment, the decision is final and access to the account will be removed.[21:35] Lola Lennon: At the moment, I will proceed and close the chat.
[21:37] Lola Lennon has left the conversation

I still have access to the account, but likely not for long. I have taken some screenshots, showing balance and history. Not sure what my options are here as I'm lost for words at the moment.

Wow, this is spineless from Jazz and a bad sign.

I think it's clear they're illiquid. It's unfortunate because they must have a huge player base and probably could have been bought out by a bigger fish (BOL, Bookmaker) and customers made whole if they were transparent earlier on but that ship may have sailed at this point.

It looks like they're basically just running it ponzi style at this point trying to max out in new customer and 'recreational' deposits. My prediction is that the site will go dark in 3-6 months and they will just exit scam. (I hope I'm wrong)

I just recently found this thread because my payouts slowed down a bit from Jazz (and I started googling reviews), but I’m still getting paid and they have been reasonable with me.

My situation is I deposited $800 in early February. Hit a really good (lucky) streak and have been pulling out money as I go. So far I’ve gotten $9000 in payouts so far. Originally it was every 2-3 days, but has since slowed down to once a week at $2500.

I’m still on a streak and playing there. I currently have $8k left in my account with a $2500 payout pending. It’s been about 4 days since that request. I got paid out $2500 last week so they’re still paying out for some.

it’s slower than I’d like but they have continued to pay me. Sucks to hear others aren’t having the same success. Hopefully they can work something out with everyone and find a solution. I’ve had a reasonable experience with them and appreciate them being up front with me on timelines. I realize I’m in the minority on that though.

How long have you been registered and playing there?
Perhaps you are newbie and have not been on the radar of the 'security' service and have not been marked as a pro player
But with such frequent requests for withdrawal of money and winnings, you will soon also end up in the common pot

[jgemma1]

Yea from what I gather 1k payout limit means you are “non rec” and you’re not getting paid.

2.5k and higher limit means you are “rec” and will get paid for the time being

[AuWillow]

14 days still no pay.

The fact multiple people are getting to 30 days and needing to resubmit should be enough to drop this books rating to F.

can I ask admin what they need to get that done?

[mrham]

It's definitely an F right now. It's just a matter of sites updating the grade.

Which admin are you talking about? I don't believe they have a rating here since SBR switched focus to US books.

We no longer rate offshores, just USA/CA licensed books.

BMR, TheRX, EOG good places to ask about that.

what differentiates the two? Has anyone figured it out? I’m a lousy gambler overall. Definitely nothing professional or strategic about me. I usually have a few too many drinks and then place some bets. No rhyme or reason. I’ve just been on an incredibly lucky streak.

if it were just winning, I think they would have limited me by now?

Hard to say, it's probably a combination of net profit, payout volume, and maybe wager types (certain types of plays like wong teasers can be seen as sharp). Possibly clv but i doubt jazz is that sophisticated.

If i were in your shoes I'd try to get my funds out of there before getting placed in 1k purgatory

As long as they keep paying me $2500 a week I’ll keep playing I guess. If theyre short on cash, hopefully March madness offers an influx so they can keep paying me out.

You joined two days ago, have three posts, all of which are on this thread saying you are getting paid. I find that suspicous, especially considering there are dozens of people who are saying the complete opposite.

But hay, if you are, which i find unlikely, or unlikely to continue. Good luck to you.

Fair to question me. Totally get that. I’ll point out that I haven’t spoken very highly of them. There are quite a few people that seem to be getting dumped on them and that’s crappy of them. I can promise that I’m not affiliated with them. Not sure how to prove that.

my payouts have slowed. I used to be able to get two a week at 2500. Now it’s been one a week, but they have paid me as recently as last week. I have another pending which I hope they’ll send this week, but we’ll see.

All I was saying is that as long as they’re paying me and I have a balance, I’ll keep playing.

If I stop and move to another book, I’ve got a big balance remaining. If I put money into another book and hit a cold streak, I’ve lost real cash I have instead of my balance at Jazz. Alternatively if I keep winning then my balance keeps going up and that isn’t ideal if they’re in financial trouble. But if they’re in financial trouble, the point is kind of moot because I won’t be getting my money regardless. Ya know?

at this point, I’ve run so hot that I’m expecting to cool off. So as I said, as long as they pay me this week, I’ll keep betting. If I start getting the run around, then maybe I’ll reevaluate.

again, I’m hopeful that maybe they’ll get an influx of cash starting next week and then actually pay me out quickly and it’ll be a non-issue.

not really sure how much exposure this site gets but at least someone is providing some coverage

Sickening. Might be worth consulting a local attorney and see if they will take it on contingency? Optional do you know if a lawsuit is viable?

I've always been of the opinion that it's not as simple to sue in a different country, there are unscrupulous lawyers who will waste your time but take your money, and if the book is set up to protect it's assets from seizure, they are also probably setup to handle your claim too.

But a handful of people have gone all the way and won against scammy books over the years. So never say never I guess.
