If anyone can explain to me, why on earth would this place pay a processor 3 million dollars knowing that this player could only cashout a certain amount? Who is to say this processor won't disappear in the middle of the night with this players money? It is not that uncommon anymore for this to happen. Lets say it did happen, I would put my left arm (I am left handed) on betting that Betfair would say" Its not our problem, we paid the winnings".
I have never heard of such a crazy way to pay a player. Most places if they have a max withdrawal per week leave the money in the players account until it is all withdrawn. I am from the US to, and have never played at this place, but knowing they would go back into my bank account to take winnings that I had won fair and sqaure, I would never play there even if they gave me money to play with. I was pissed off to no end when I read they did this, and I didn't even know the person.
Is there any recourse anyone can take against this place? It is obvious there is no regulation as Mousey has stated, but there has to be something that can be done to them. So many people have been taken advantage here, and I am sure there are many more we don't know about. What blows my mind, is that this once was a reputable establishment, and I can't see them doing anything to rectify the mistakes they have already made. I would think they have been losing money since all this became public, but maybe I am wrong.
Because of all the things that were done wrong here, I agree they deserve to be in the rogue pit, but to me it looks like they don't care. These forums can be a powerful tool to players, and I have seen so many negative things about them on many other forums, but Betfair acts like it is not a big deal. I think the end of Betfair is alot closer than they realize if they don't start doing something to rectify their mistakes.
I truely feel bad for all players that were taken advantage of, and I hope someone will find away to get everyones money back.
