TitanBet player unhappy with enhanced screening
A TitanBet (SBR rating C) player claims he deposited $325 to wager on sports, but his account was immediately suspended. The player claims to have sent high quality scans of requested documentation. TitanBet allegedly requested the player to take a photo of himself holding the documents to unlock his account. While it may sound unusual, more sportsbooks are beginning to enforce stricter "Know Your Customer" (KYC) guidelines. Players who may not be in possession of given ID are often unable to comply with these requests, eliminating a percentage of multi-accounting fraud. SBR has advised the player in this dispute to oblige the sportsbook's request, and will update this report.

BetIslands website maintenance at 10PM ET
BetIslands (SBR rating B) website will be unavailable at approximately 10PM ET for software maintenance. On April 8th, SBR reported that the sportsbook was completing its move to a new wagering facility, and would be switching to proprietary sports and casino software. Due to user feedback regarding the sports platform, BetIslands made the decision to go back to using DGS for its book and casino offerings. Management tells SBR they will still add to the betting offerings using the old software and are simply responding to player feedback. Players will not be able to wager by phone during the software maintenance, which is expected to run a couple hours.

Sportsbetting.ag players experiencing slow-pays
A Sportsbetting.ag (SBR rating D+) player submits a payment complaint. The player requested an $1,800 withdrawal on March 11th, 2012. Sportsbetting.ag assigned a ten business day time-frame for funds to be received, but the player has to date not been paid. Sportsbetting.ag management confirmed to SBR that there is currently an issue with one of their processors, contributing to payment delays. The player's $1,800 payment was to be sent through a method that was reportedly still being paid on time. Currently, Sportsbetting.ag is slow-paying eight players more than $100,000. SBR is following up on this sportsbook complaint.

Sportsbetting.ag was recently downgraded from C- to D+ for the confiscation of $16,000 in winnings from a player who registered with an incorrect signup detail. SBR covered that dispute in this sportsbook industry news report.

Players in need of sportsbook assistance are asked to fill out a sportsbook complaint form. Alternatively, players may reach Sportsbook Review by writing to help@sportsbookreview.com or by dialing 1-830-255-4677 during normal business hours.
