Topic: NitrogenSports forcing me to rollover my deposit once? - page 2. (Read 280 times)

From what i can gather many sites doing this to :

1. prevent from mixing coins using their service
2. force users to use deposit to gamble , as they simply acting like casino. Regardless how many times they payout. More best means more profit.

I seriously dont need to remind that "not your keys , not your coins".

Very scammy behaviour if you ask me.

Based on your description, you shouldn't need to complete any rollover of your funds, as like you said, your funds were not the result of any freebies or promo.

I think that if NitrogenSports tries to defend this, it's worth opening a scam accusation on them, since this is clearly unacceptable.

I have NEVER seen a sportsbooks or casino site of any kind force users to rollover their funds in this way, that's insane. Imagine walking into a casino and being told you need to roller your funds 2x before you can extract your winnings, that's a joke.

This is going to end badly for NitrogenSports.

Typical thing for you to able to withdraw on a gambling site.Of course you will need to wager that deposit before you can pull it off. Did you really expect that you can easily transfer
from exchange to a gambling site then to your personal wallet? Then you do really make a mistake.Just like what been said above that you should rather wait up for that cooldown
than to have this kind of hassle thing.

Yeah I also figured they think you are using them as a mixer. As you deposit to one of their addresses. But when you withdraw it goes to another address. Just bet some of the money and you should have no problem getting it back. .4 deposit and you surrendering after 1 hand of blackjack (Minimum bet) seems fishy. Seems like you are just trying to mix your coins lol.

As long as you did not steal the funds or like hack someones account I am sure you will get your money!!! Nitrogen is slow about how they do things but they have always paid me in the end!

So you just deposited and then withdrew to nitrogen as it was an easy wallet you already had saved? I have never had .4 to play with but I do know the more money you use. The more security they use. In the end I think it is to benefit you. They have never made me play through all of my deposit but I have went back and forth with them for years. They have given me cooldowns and holds before but I always received money as promised!

I understand what probably your intention of having a deposit on that amount on the Nitrogensport site but you did not know that it is against their rules. In the gambling industry, each gambling platform had different rules to follow and as a customer, we should read first the FAQ or either the Term of Condition. It was clearly stated, on their rules number 22.

The major requirement is to comply wit the rollover requirement, therefore you can expect that anytime soon your money will be successful withdrawn to your specific wallet, you are lucky you still got something to withdraw so I assume you don't lose your bets when complying the rollover requirement.

If I am in your side and I have to comply, I might just hedge my bet using other sportsbook so I will guarantee that I won't lose my entire balance, the least I coudl lose is maybe 10% paying up the juice.

^  Noob mistake...  You've been in the space since 2014.  You should know better than withdrawing .4 BTC from an exchange straight to a gambling site.

I've heard of these horror stories in the past, never thought it would happen to me.

My intention was not to mix coins or anything like that. I've stated it in OP.

Anyhow, it seems like that they won't budge. I've completed my rollover now (very reluctantly) and hopefully they do free up my account.

They also did show me a clause in the terms and conditions that is well hidden under the "cashier" section. Whether or not this was reasonable is up to you to decide

^  Exactly... 

Sports betting sites hate it when you use them for 'laundering' your utxo's.  I mean maybe that's what it must've looked like from their side.

Why do you made that big deposit if you don't intend to gamble all that.
Actually I have an experience in the past, its not nitrogen but with other website, I think I deposited like 0.1 btc then gamble only 0.01 btc and then lose, and decision to withdraw the remaining account and my balance was on hold.

Maybe the site are thinking that you might just mixing your coins with them, things like that.

I helped my dad set up a nitro account one time he took .0076 BTC I gave him  and turned it into 1.41 BTC in like 3 hours. But then they would not let him withdraw to a new address he had to use a previous deposit address. Well he was new to bitcoin at the time so when I asked for HIS ADDRESS he sent me HIS NITRO ADDY!!! lol So needless to say we finally got the 1.41 BTC only after they made him send all of his winnings to my wallet as he bought the coins off of me.... lol it could have a been a really bad deal had it been someone else though or even an exchange wallet!!! We were only allowed to withdrawl after like 10 days though.

If you withdrawl or deposit from Nitrogen Sports MAKE SURE THEY ARE BOTH FROM AND TO YOUR PERSONAL WALLET!!! Otherwise your gonna have a bad time lol

I am sure you will get your money they just like to hold it for a week or 2 at first!!! for "Security measures" but then they make you send it to someone elses address!!!!  

some people still do not believe me. He uses a strategy 1,1,2,2,4,6,10 play till you lose and go back to your TIMES 1 bet.  I have never gotten that lucky. I have picked up 3 and 400 but I straight watched him pick up like 14k in 3 hours off 70 bucks. Then they held his money for almost 2 weeks!!! WE GOT IT THOUGH LOL!!

You really shouldn't have withdrew directly to a sportsbook - they are notorious for doing this kind of stuff to their users. If I were you I would have just waited for your exchange's cooldown to end.

However, this kind of behavior from Nitro is definitely not acceptable in my opinion. What it looks like is that they are trying to bully you into cooperation more than anything else.

It makes no sense for them and other sportsbooks to be talking about and having "responsible gaming" as a part of their site when they're coercing users into playing...

I made a 0.4BTC deposit to NitrogenSports today, because I withdrew some funds from Deribit and had my Nitrogensports deposit address saved from a previous withdrawal. I didn't realise that adding a new address would result in a 3 day cooldown period before I could actually use it to withdraw, so I went ahead and withdrew to Nitrogen.

As a 'gesture' to pay for the tx fees associated with this transaction, I opened a 0.0001 BTC blackjack bet and surrendered. (somewhat irrelevant).

I received this message from support, alongside a message that my account was suspended after I requested withdrawal:


The closest term I could find on their site was this, regarding bonuses:


However, clearly my deposit was not the result of a bonus or anything of that sort. So this does not apply to my situation whatsoever.

They also mention that this is industry standard. However, out of all the dice sites and crypto casinos that I've played at (bitsler, yolodice, primedice, stake, bustabit), they all allow you to withdraw without any rollover requirements.

This is predatory behaviour, imo, since players are forced into playing on the site and make potentially rash decisions as soon as they deposit.

I'm happy to pay whatever tx fees associated with my withdrawal (0.00005 BTC seems standard on other sites, and I've already willingly given that up), but I'm not happy to be forced into rolling my balance over once without any particular reason. I understand that this is not supposed to be used as a wallet service, but I've played here numerous times in the past (and lost a bunch, mind you) and it just seems like they're trying to force me into playing more.

I'm waiting for their support to respond. Hopefully this does get resolved.
