Story originally posted early March. Lost in Cyber Space Somehow.
I was contacted a couple weeks ago by a player asking for assistance with a payout dispute with TheOnlineBet.com. The player sent me screen shots of account info & live chat where TheOnlineBet made it clear he was owed the monies. I tried for over a week to contact Mr John Stone & to get him to discuss the troubles.
He hid & would not speak of the incident. He made his customer Service guys take the calls and emails. These guys get to hear the complaints and try to defend a chit book. Mark & Steven were cooperative. They told me as much as they could. They confirmed that the player was owed over $8000 & that there was really no reason for him not to get paid. Steven said that there were 3-5 players not getting paid right now because OnlineBet was robbed by Epoint & funds were weak.
Funny that they only had 3-5 players getting stiffed. If they were paying the rest, then why would they not send a payout of some amount to this player? I was told by Steven that he would send the player a dime last Monday. It never happened. TheOnlineBet openly admitted to me that the player was owed. They have made no attempt to pay this player a dime. It is truly pathetic that they can use the excuse of Epoint robbing them & the funds are weak, but yet I assure you they will take a deposit right now, knowing they are having financial troubles.
Beware and pass the word. Let's try to prevent others from getting sucked into a book that cannot pay any decent size player & they have made this clear. They are hoping for postups to help them. That is not how the game is played.
The player here has screen shots of wagers, withdrawal requests, & live chat to show proof. I hope he will take time to comment here as well.
Mr John Stone is mad at the player because Anthony at Secure Buxx gave the player a payout without the consent of TheOnlineBet. The player tried to do everything right. Anthony tried many times to contact The OnlineBet for approval of the payout, but they would not reply because they were not going to pay this player. Anthony did the right thing by releasing some money to this player. If not, he would be owed over $10,000.

After posting this story, it was verified that Onlinebet was not paying a few players, stating that Epoint had stolen $150,000 from them.
