Powerbet.io is a total scam stay AWAY they allow only deposits but no withdrawals I made a deposit with them couple of days ago did NOT take any bonus or any other offer with them i just deposited around 200 mBTC placed a bet with good normal odds around 1.9 won the bet and when i tried to withdraw they send me an email    

" According to our terms and conditions, "Customers are only allowed to open one account. Opening of multiple accounts is not permitted. Should we have reasonable suspicions that any of our customers has opened multiple accounts with us, e.g. for the purposes of avoiding stake, deposit or winning limit, we reserve the right at our absolute discretion to freeze that customer's account or to close the account immediately and the customer shall forfeit all their winnings. Customers should also note that their original deposits will not be refunded."
Therefore, all your accounts were banned from playing and all available funds were confiscate
d "

So basically a bullshit email with a bullshit clause which states that they can refuse your winnings and your deposit without any reason or explanation just a "suspicion" from their behalf when i requested for any proofs of wrongdoing they didnt give me a respond

Maybe you should create a scam accusation in the proper board. This is not the proper place to put this. But it is also good to leave this one here and just open another on the scam accusation board. This thread could warn other players about the site, but you have to ultimately prove the facts of your case though.

Edit: Great! You moved it. Now, try to follow the how to write a proper scam accusation by reading the stickies. Smiley

I never knew about this betting house before I saw this thread. I checked their announcement thread and I saw they restrict a lot of comments and self manage the thread. This is not good for the promotion of the casino deleting comments which they don't like. Now this looks like the definitive proof against them. I feel sorry for your loss.

First of all how come you came to know about Powerbet.io? They are not Favorite either on this forum, you joined here today and got them today..thats co-incidence? I see this as a publicity stunt.

This player had opened two accounts with us. Unfortunately for him, he forgot to change his IP and used the same IP on both his accounts - both active with deposits and placed bets. Our terms and conditions are quite clear in this matter: multi-accounting is forbidden.
We're glad this thread was brought to the public as this will hopefully prevent other players from attempting opening multiple accounts with us.

The quote of Chevas Regal was not actually randomly selected as our anti-fraud detection system also signed a connection between these two new accounts and accounts related to this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1718840.20, where the OP, bestgr, and the last poster, ioanna1990 are the same (another thread meant at attacking us).

For bestgr, ioanna1990 and Authority9 we have this message: please don't try opening any more accounts with us as they'll all have the same fate.

I checked powerbet.io if they would be a good choice for Game Protect and have to inform the community that they hide the operator, but at the same time, when you apply for affiliate, they ask 1000 questions and info from you!

Also, if an operator reserves the right to confiscate your balance or winnings on "suspicion", please stay away. To validate a claim, you need an enforcement order from a court. To get such an enforcement order, you need proof of your claim!

Powerbet.io is a big scam For a long time

And you made this statement based on what?
None of our players that followed our rules and conditions had any problems.

Regarding the OP, here are a couple of screenshots showing his login history on both his accounts:

 

 

We hope this will put an end to this false scam accusation!

If the OP has buyed an IP-adress for his own, you may be right. But if not, it means nothing. And if he uses a vpn-provider it also means nothing.

We can solve this pretty easily i believe i have a case against you, you believe i don't fine provide me then your name and your country of operations and we will let the courts decide who is right since you don't have anything to hide that won't be a problem for you Would it?
And what i am asking is completely legal and ethical when there is a contract between 2 parties and one party decides to take unfair decisions against the other party arbitration is required so if you are a legitimate operation and not a scammer it won't be a problem for you to provide your information

And another instance that proves your dishonesty. You claim that if you have "suspicion" for anything weird you confiscate not only the winnings but  the deposits as well !!!! now a bookmaker that just wants to protect itself from abusive behaviours by players only confiscates the winnings. Your decision to also confiscate the deposits gives you a MOTIVE to find "suspicious" activities everywhere. Why really have you set up your terms this way if your goal is not to defarud people of their money???

Its clear they are trying to impose an authoritarian rule, on the basis of their retarded "terms" they can literally just lock anyone's account and claim two IPs are same, boohoo YOU ARE DA SAME GUY!!

I hate seeing shitty companies sprout up and bring with them ridiculous notions of how businesses should be run.

Wtf, so those scumbags have the right to seize your money just because you opened 2 accounts from the same ip? What kind of a shitty TOS is that?

What IF he and his wife is playing from the same house? Have you thought about this morons?

Just return his money retards.

The amount isn't worth to contact a lawyer but you can post this everywhere so hopefully no-one will be harmed in the future.

Sports betting service disallow multiple accounts due to some cases which is explained already in site T&C which I guess is accepted by every user following registration of an account.

However by disallowing multiple accounts, it does not enables sportsbook to keep the deposit amount from such account cases. It is already in their T&C but that doesn't means that they can play with customers funds like that. By putting points in T&C , the concerned service should be able to justify the reason behind putting of such conditions. I will be waiting for powerbet to answer this.

I also have question regarding their inactive fees condition.
