Sky Bet. Telling me pork pies (Lies)

[SlotsWizard]

Does Skybet have the ability to increase the default bet size range for some players?

That would be the only thing which would make it plausible. There are several outcomes based on splitting, doubling, etc., and there's no way of knowing whether they consider the original bet part of the win, i.e., did he bet £6975 and win without a blackjack, did he bet £3487.50 and win without a blackjack, did he bet £2790 and get a blackjack, or did he bet £4650 and get a blackjack? Or was their splitting involved? Probably not, since they claim it was from a single hand (although even that might not necessarily mean that the hand wasn't split one or more times).

Whatever allegedely happened, the bet amounts required to make it are pretty strange.

Did you miss this glaringly obvious statement in the T+Cs

"6. All bonuses will be non-playable and will only be converted to withdrawable funds when the value of the bonus is turned over a minimum of 20 times using your own funds."

It was just only recently that they have started to enforce that rule for the second bonus.

And seriously, quoting legislation at them.. you are hardly going to take them to court over this are you !

Well whats the point in

A: Going to University for 4 years to study Law
B: Quoting the relevent legislation
C: It would only cost £25 for the court fee and I have sufficent evidence to support my claim so it would not be classed as vexatious and I would not be liable for their costs.

I'm glad Zoozie asked first

Yes, please give us a hint.

They say the players won huge amounts on ONE SPIN or ONE HAND = Impossible!

Shoot-out Hold'em; Table limit = £1,000 - so the max you can win in one hand is £10,000, not £13,975
Blackjack; Table limit = £1,000 - so how can you win £6,975 in one hand?
Price is Right fruity: The max you can win from 1 spin = £2,500. £5,328 is impossible.
Wheel of Fortune; I suppose technically £4,039 might by possible, but you could not do it betting the max of £10 or £5 / line because all wins would end in a 5 or 0, and not 9 as stated.
The only way to win £4,039 would be by betting £3/line - but it didn't say it was Slotster!

Actually this weeks lies aren't as bad as usual, but the September 2006 ones are clearly made up

You still aren't going to take them to court
