I am the player in the Olympic F1 dispute. I thank RX moderators TTinco and wilheim for their advice, and Roberto and the TOW panel for their thorough efforts.
Olympic have declined to abide the panel's ruling in my favour. Whilst this ruling was not binding, neither was the original bet. In most jurisdictions wagering contracts are a matter of honour. I indicated in good faith that I would drop the matter if the ruling went in Olympic's favour. Olympic undertook (quoting Roberto) to "disclose information and favorably review the panel's ruling and its final recommendations." Roberto communicated his belief that Spiro would comply. So what sort of favourable review is this? Olympic don't even comment on the panel ruling. This is an insult to TOW and his hard-working panel memebers.
So that "stellar" sportsbook Olympic won't honour its own bets, follow its own rules, or abide fair third-party arbitration. Any efforts that Olympic made to resolve this dispute are exposed as phony after its rejection of the TOW verdict.
I submitted the case to TOW via TheRX, where Olympic is currently listed as a Preferred Sportsbook. I propose that it be removed from this list until it abides the panel's ruling and pays me out on my winning bets.
