Hey Peeps,

Just wanted to let you know that Betcoin is closing their Poker room as of Christmas ( which, I suppose is over, so it's closed )

Also, they are very likely* stealing the progressive bad beat jackpot that has been collected .01 mbtc at a time over the years.

So, if you're keeping score:

They have stolen a progressive jackpot worth around BTC1,000 from jasonort.  This was maybe 18 months ago? , and from a specific player.  You can look at their trust rating, most of the references refer to the incredibly scummy way they handled the situation.

Then there's this bad beat jackpot and the whole "hey guys, we've been AQUIRED by someone" so we're closing down the poker room.

Probably a good thing they're closing down the poker room in general.  But pretty fucked up how the ~BTC43 progressive jackpot will simply be disappearing.

I don't expect you to do much because, hey, I haven't proven to you that they have fucked a sports bettor.  I also think it's in your best interest, financially speaking, to convince your people to sign up under your affiliate.

I really think it's disgusting that you haven't taken a stand against these guys.  Truly dispicable.

If anything isn't clear, or maybe I'm misinformed about something, I'd be happy to discuss things.  I don't mean to hijak your thread, but would prefer to keep things transparent.  



* I say very likely  because, in true 'Betcoin' fashion, they refuse to even aknowledge the situation.  They haven't admitted to stealing it.  They haven't responded to any questions about it.  Makes sense when you think about it I suppose.  If you can steal huge ammounts of money from your custormers, and still have guys like you (peeps place) defend them, the clear best play is to simply pretend like nothings happening.  

I see you downgraded Cloudbet to an F, but you forgot to remove them from the C books.

Make sure you keep PowerBet as an F. They have frozen player balances and not allowed withdrawals. Recently they removed my balance and now I can't even log in.

They have confiscated 3 BTCs from me. It was only about $4,000 when they first froze it, but now with BTC at $17,500, that's $52,500 they have confiscated from me. Ouch!

 

"... As based on my experience they are seems abandoned..."

Agree.
Seems like no staff, the owner collects profits if any but no cs and even the owner is not responding to Peeps so the owner has given up caring about what people think of the site.

This is not what one expects the owner of a thriving business to do.

Perhaps broke, too disgusted or depressed to even pretend that everything is ok,  and milking the last money coming in until closes the door?


Is anyone reading this currently betting at Cloudbet?
Do they have any customers left?

Peeps - I don't understand what you're waiting for?

Nice to see a new name getting up to the A-list. Will definitely give bitcoinrush a try.

Also had an idea, since you have this thread and you help out people with selecting where to bet I'd be more than happy signing up using your ref link (if you have one) as I'm sure others would too.

So let me know before I go and make an account there .

Peeps according to your experience which is the best bokies now to bet with bitcoin?

Also what about BetBTC.co? They are an exchange and have some good odds from time to time.

6 more days since you reached out to them one more time = 15 days for you waiting for a response and 19 days for me.

What's going on? Still no downgrade? Still no response?

What's the word on mBit for sports gambling?

They have Pinnacle-like odds and a very nice and fast website.

Why the NR?

Peeps Place 11-24-17 -  "They will definitely be downgraded. I'll wait until Monday."



Summary -

Cloudbet's "Forgot your password?" does not work - no reset ever sent after about 6 attempts on different days.
No response to my emails beginning 13 days ago.
I assume you've received no response for 9 days.

Shouldn't this make them an "F" at this point?

Zero customer support, software for reset password doesn't work.

What more does it take to say they are non-functional?
 

Jetwin - I sent them an email, received a reply within 24 hours. Very good.

I sent a 2nd email, never received a response to date 11 days later.
Resent that 2nd email 9 days ago, no response to date.

Maybe I got lucky with the 1st email - they have someone come in every few weeks and respond to some emails?

I assume you haven't gotten a response from them either after about 4 days.



Shouldn't this be a downgrade?

I'm having an issue with Jetwin support also.

I emailed a question and got a prompt response.

Followed up with a 2nd question and no response.
Sent a reminder/resend email, no response.

Re: Cloudbet -


So it seems they don't respond to you either.

No response for 7 days for me and 3 days for you.

Their "Forgot my password" is broken, no response to cs emails (2), plus yours.

How long a wait is acceptable?

Wouldn't this call for a downgrade?
