Reverse Withdrawal

[swingtop]

Hi everyone. Looking for some advice. Is there anything that can be done about a bookie letting someone reverse withdraw 150k? No phone or email etc. The full amount was lost! Asking for a friend! Thanks.

Nothing at all.

Responsible gambling tools are offered at all sites such as loss limits (set to 1 GBP for 7 days) or take a break (48 hours, 7 days) that way there is ZERO risk to your winnings.

Thanks for your reply. The person asked for something to be done and they were told they couldn't do anything until the large withdrawal team came in on Monday. No advice about tools was given during live chat exchanges.

What site was it? Most casinos have a responsible gambling tab, that gives the players the option that suits them, I'm sure any reputable casino/bookmaker that has a UK gambling/Malta gaming license would help a player that wanted to restrict there account.

I think it was Ladbrokes so it probably does. 100k was probably a conservative estimate. I think it was done a few times, so 300k to 500k sounds more realistic. Expense lesson learned not to take cold/flu medicine while gambling!

Just timeout for 24 hours each time? duh why would he reverse that amount of money..

as @Nicola said set a loss limit of £1 per week until its withdrawn. or cool off for 24hours / 48 or even 1 week until its cashed out.

Didn't know there's a loss limit available as well. Interesting. I say 100k. I think that's conservative. I reckon it was done a few times so 350-500k would be more realistic. Expensive lesson not to gamble and take cold and flu medicine! Would that amount not flag something up? Cheers.

what do you expect to be done about it? canceling withdrawal of 150k is completely irresponsible and your friends own fault. he has no one to point at but himself

[Li_Shang]

what do you expect to be done? ofc nothing can be done about it, you expect them to give the money back to your friend cause he was greedy and kept playing lol?

But lets be honest somthing can be done bookies casinos authority stop these casinos allowing players to reverse. come on its wrong or at least have a lock in withdrawel. If theres a lock in withdrawel a simple little tool it cost nohing. The only thing and one thing only why casinos dont want to put a lock in withdrawel is so you reverse it or anyone tell me why the casino has not put in lock withdrawels tool no other reason can be found. Its irresponsible for any casino to not have this tool imo

Also many casino have flush withdrawels but they wouldnt let you know about this! Another form of irresponsible behavior a casino would say its the players responsibility wich ultimately it is i accpet. But theres a but  any casino that claim there responsible then allow there site to reverse withdrawel and not have lock in tools and advertise flush withdrawels. Thy really you support responsible gambling but allow this 

Some casino have this tool i dont speak for all

[Slotspinner]

Calm yourself.

You can say to your friend he should talk to live chat. Usually they refund if you cancel a withdrawal and gamble with the money. That shall not be a problem

U taking the puirsssss

Anyway i think to conclude is there is nothing that can be done about it, and as far as i agree that casinos should all have lock withdrawals, the player decided to gamble the funds away so its closed story kind of ?

I'm sure they wouldn't have done it if they weren't taking medication! They have cashed out 2/3k before. Lesson learned I suppose but now the account is closed on responsible gaming grounds after the event lol
