Betfair Bonus Fiasco

I think this is the betfair forum rep?

maybe they could come explain there side of the story

I find it absolutely mind boggling, that any merchant could have Neteller or MB go into a player's ewallet account, and confiscate already paid funds. It IS the equivalent of a chargeback on the part of the casino...and every bit as fraudulent, IMO, as a player who does the same thing.

1. Could this be added as one of the stages to pass when considering accreditation?

2. If chargebacks constitutes an 'Evil Player'... will this be the same for the Casino AND Processor?

3. Could we possibly contact processors and confirm if they WILL do a chargeback at the request of a Casino? If so, can we place warnings for potential customers of that Ewallet?

4. We seriously need to decipher the issue of 'Irregular Playing Patterns'. This is something that is NOT acceptable and more Casinos are getting away with it. I cannot fathom why this has never been addressed (I stand to be corrected - if it has please point me to the thread)...

5. I understand that this issue is in the early stages and no other info was released, but it makes you feel sick ... Players have NO protection.. Not from the EWallet or from the supposed 'FAIR' Casinos.

Bryan / Max ....

To paraphrase the Asian guy in the cold suit in Blade Runner: "I do PABs, just PABs".

You're talking Accreditation policy and that's 100% Bryan's domain. He'll be back on or about the 29th so you may need to wait a bit to get his input on this.

Do betfair have a rep here - I'ld love their side of the story

Don't think so - I don't think they communicate with any third parties (forums, SBR, Casinomeister etc).

Apparantly they do communicate with third parties now (well CM at least) as of October this year, which is when Bryan put them back in the accredited section.

I just could not believe that an a E-wallet with such status as Moneybookers would return monies to a casino, without even consulting the person whom has the account, I just closed my MB account.

To be fair, only one person mentioned this having happened. Landprofits, you wrote that it happened to your friend and was there maybe something else involved with this? It looks like most of the players who managed to withdraw from Betfair to Moneybookers were able to keep their monies, though many of them probably emptied their Moneybookers accounts just in case Betfair tried to get it back.
