1xBet is not totally a scam company. I used to bet on them like for 3 years. I had good times and as well as big loses. I never had issues with them. Yes, they might use some tricky marketing strategies that gives a new user impression about them that is actually not true. But, what company doesn't do that? They are a regular betting company that spends millions on marketing, that's it.
by offering them a 100% bonus deposit which is a pretty good deal for starters
Regarding this, never fall for their 100% bonus to your first deposit. It works kinda different than it sounds
you should bet these bonus money and make x30 profit compared to the initial amount. Only in this case, you will be able to withdraw the INITIAL amount, not x30.
P.S. I'm not connected with 1xBet in any way. I'm writing my thoughts based on my personal experience with them.
