Title: betkurus sportsbook scam
Post by: antdee on September 19, 2016, 03:29:43 PM
I have a problem with the betting site betkurus. https://www.betkurus99.com/#/

''Betkurus.com, first licensed Bitcoin Sportsbook and Casino, is operated by DigitalSport Entertainment N.V., E-commerce Park, Vredenberg, Curacao, Dutch Caribbean with registration number 133848. The company holds Curacao gaming license N. 8048/JAZ2014-049.''

Yesterday the traders decided to close my account and refund my balance, which they did but in doing so they voided all my open bets. I had open bets for the match Udinese v Chievo Verona ,  on the corners market, double chance X2 corners.
I made the bets early at first half when corners were 0-0, and again when corners were 2-0, so i got good odds.
When they decided to cancel the wagers the match was on 90+3, corners were 4-7 and finished 5-7. My bets were as good as won. Now they refuse to give me the winnings, which are in Bitcoin currency, worth around €900-€1000  at the moment.
I also requested to get my betting and transaction history but they no longer reply to my emails.

Fortunately they refund your balance and didn't confisticate your balance, it is acceptable to me, just move to another one. No loss here. Better than mbit casino scam.

there is even a loss because he accept a "risk" placing this bet. It's like he bet at 1.00 if he win he get money back if the bet will lose he waste all money.
when a book accept a bet, it's a shady approach cancel the bet and return the money, so I think this is a clear scam.
OP you receive more info about you account suspended?

Of course there is loss, because i took the risk, and  I won, so money is mine..
They accept the bets, they need to honour them.
Pay my balance and and settled bets and then you can kick me out , no problem.

I haven't been scammed for months before these two,  I just want decent limits on in-play soccer. I use other bookies too, but these two had small markets available for bitcoin, which is handy.
So I gave them a chance, at first they are okay, then they keep your money if you beat them.

"then they keep your money if you beat them", therefor you know why they don't scam you for months, you lost money in the early days. When you earn money, they will scam you.

AFAIK, cloudbet and nitrogen are very reliable, even players win hundreds of bitcoins. But cloudbet is a bit slow on grading bets, sometimes it takes 3-5 days to grade.

Betcoin.ag becomes shady, it was very legit, but now, I don't recommend.

Directbet usually confiscates players' funds and hire shills to attack other competitors, shady one.

never get a problem with DB! If you read the history of players that complaints problems you look a very shade behaviour, like double spendings, and so on.
Personally I never get any problem with their service.

I don't want to judge that website bad but it's the first time I hear about such website.

We all have our well known betting websites here which focus mainly on sportsbook like Directbet.eu and Nitrogensports.eu

Both these websites doesn't ask you any personal details so you can use these instead of the website you are accusing here.

It's always better to play in well known sports books in bitcoin just like is always better to play on bet365 or william hill in FIAT sportsbooks.
