Info@Anonibet - [Re: statement in T&C that withdrawing without 1x play through will be charged 5%]

"Dear Gogo ppp,

Thank you for your comment. As I have already explained, we do not want to become a safe box. We have never applied this rule so far. I do not understand why this disturbs you..."




Michael - Since you said you don't understand...


I leave a few coins in various books that I feel comfortable with, in case I find a bet I would like to make in the future and can save time this way.

I would feel comfortable doing this with Anonibet, except I don't want to be charged 5% if I decide to withdraw (a few coins). Part of the positives of bitcoins is they can be moved for a few pennies, not 5%.

So it makes me uncomfortable for that reason. Yours is the only book where I see that charge.
If I leave 4 coins valued at ~$500 usd each it will cost me $100 if you change your mind/someone other than you applies the charge, etc.

You say the charge has never been applied.
But then, as I asked, why not remove the language, and give individual warnings that you will apply the 5% charge in the future to people you feel are using Anonibet as a safe box.

So this is why it disturbs me and why I mentioned it for a 2nd time.

OK I see your point now. You might be right, we shall remove it from our T&C.

We have set this rule in order to prevent large amounts of BTC kept in Anonibet. Bitcoin is very attractive for hackers and we do not want to attract "bad guys" thinking we keep large amounts of BTC. This was the only purpose really. We do not even charge withdraw fees, we pay the network fee at each withdraw so that our customers receive the exact amount they have withdrawn from Anonibet.

Regards,
Michael

The above re: the following in Anonibet's T&C:
"2.02
In order to withdraw funds from your account, you are required to place bets as much as the amount deposited. If you make a withdrawal request without placing bets 5% handling fee shall be deducted from the amount you have requested."


Michael - "OK I see your point now. You might be right, we shall remove it from our T&C."


Peeps Place - "Nice work by both gogo and Anonibet working together. It's good to see a book take our opinions seriously."


Yet I notice it is still there 9 days later. Perhaps you forgot to remove it?

Anonibet - What is happening with the above situation?
Did you decide not to remove the 5% charge for withdrawing without rolling over a deposit one time?

Anonibet Michael - You've twice stated that you will remove from your T&C the condition that deposits to your book must be
rolled over 1x before withdrawing or pay a 5% fee.

It's now over a month and you have not followed thru.

It's inexcusable to charge 5% for a btc withdrawal which costs you nothing.
Do you know of any other btc book that charges for withdrawals?

What is the problem? Did you decide you want that 5%?

If not, why haven't you followed thru after stating twice that you will?

Sadly, Cloudbet now gets a D from me..

Any book claiming "instant deposit" but still won't give you your BTC after 6 confirmations deserves a D. Had them at a C but having to email and PM every single time in unacceptable  

Not sure why I keep giving Dennis and these guys a shot.  But you are definitely not "instant deposit" like you claim.

Thread is too quiet, anyway, good to see Anonibet now has livechat

I like the live chat too. I wish the other books would do it but it seems that they don't have the man power.

It has been quiet lately. Anyone else see something new or have a problem?

FYI - We are in the midst of adjusting our MLB margins with the 3rd party... our hope was that it would have been done 2 days ago, but they seem to be a bit slower than most.

We strive to have dime lines in MLB!

Books or players - Feel free to post about any World Cup contests. I'm going to try to go through them all later. Cloudbet is putting up 100 BTC but it's nearly impossible to win.

Well , they will pay you the 100 BTC if you get it.

But as I calculated here :- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=629828.msg7153910#msg7153910 , the chance is so minute that they have lost an average of 3.5 satoshis by running this.

There are over 14,089,600,000,000 distinct possibilities which you could choose

Another simpler explanation is if you tried one possibility every single second , you would take over 440,000 years to guess all the possible combinations.

Books or players - Feel free to post about any World Cup contests.

Not particularly for the World Cup, but DirectBet is running a promotion every day, every month, all year long, where you can earn up to 10 BTC every month as part of our VIP Rewards program.

This is the most rewarding VIP program in the industry, guaranteed.

The advantage of this program over the other promotions that are currently running is that you don't need to bet more than other users in order to win. You are only depended on yourself. The more you bet, the greater your reward.

With the other promotions, you can bet a lot all month long and still come up empty handed because someone else might bet more than you and take the prize.

Peeps, as I've posted in other places, and I didn't see you mentioning it, not only it is almost impossible to win, but if you do win, there is a 10x rollover requirement on 100 BTC!  and it's like they hid it in the terms!
