Sportsbet is one of the reputable casinos in here,once they verify everything you say and the best person is Steve as already mentioned here,I am sure that you will get all your money back,deposited amount plus winning amount.The casino where you have chosen to play would surely not blow up their reputation for that ridiculous amount,however it is the first time I see some reputable casino asking KYC for such a ridiculous amount like 250 dollars,as far as I remember I used to withdraw 1000 dollars here at Sportsbet a couple of years ago without a single problem,most likely laws have changed as I don't see any other reason for them to do so.
I thought that the KYC was odd as well. I at first resisted in doing it but saw that I would not be able to have an account with them if I did not. So I went ahead and went through the process. I really never expected them to close my account and take the entire balance. I really hope it was some mistake or a mixup because I do understand that they would not blow up there reputation for that amount.

I will advice you not to increase the fee anytime you are paying for something, once the fee has been increased, the transaction would be replaced and with new transaction ID. This can confuse the person or the site that you are paying. Explain to their customer care, if true that you double spend the transaction and you still send the same amount, Sportbet should give you your money and the winning.
I am hoping so but I have seen some not so good stories on here. Fingers crosses legendary

Well, just cross your fingers, your money is not lost as long as all you've said here is the truth, sportsbet.io is popular around here and also know for their good reputation, I believe they wouldnt want to stain that, your money will be credited back to you, just allow them some time to really clarify things themselves and be sure you were trying to cheat them, I believe they wil see it, the blockchain is transparent and open for all to see, and no one can utter the data on it, this should stand as your witness.
You've brought the issue to the right place, and be rest assured you will get your money credited back to you once they verify and confirm all that you've said here.

Yea. Same exact amount. Just replaced the fee. I explained everything to them and was truthful throughout the proccess. I even went through the KYC proccess and passed that. They first accused me of multiaccounting. They accused me of 5 accounts, 4 of which I knew absolutly nothing about. The fifth one is my brothers account. Who is the person that told me to switch sportsbooks. After that accusation was done they accused me of doublespending. I was 100 percent truthful throughout the KYC proccess.
Hi Jumpy192,
You should PM Steve; he's the guy that will be able to help you.

Well thats what happened. I sent bitcoin during a backlog. My wallet sent it with a low fee and I sent it again after 4 hours of waiting for a confirmation.
So, you bumped transaction fee using RBF feature. Right?When you bump the fee, the original transaction is replaced with a new one paying more transaction fee.
Sportsbet probably credited your balance once they saw your unconfirmed transaction. When you bumped the fee, that transaction became invalid and they thought that you are trying to cheat them.
Since the replacing transaction was made to sportsbet, you didn't cheat them. You should contact their support and explain this to them.
Maybe for increasing the transaction fee, your wallet decreased the output value and this caused the amount received by sportsbet to be lower than the amount they credited to your account.
Did you send exactly the same amount as the original transaction to sportsbet in your second transaction?
Well thats what happened. I sent bitcoin during a backlog. My wallet sent it with a low fee and I sent it again after 4 hours of waiting for a confirmation. That's why i dont understand why they have just closed my account and wont answer my emails. This happened around christmas so I have given them ample time to respond. It sucks that they just claim that I double spent and get to keep the money.
Took your winning from my perspective is wrong.
First of all, I also have some experience "double-spending" to make the transaction getting fast because the fee it's to small. The casino is "Roobet", however the system Roobet it's self cannot handle double spending.
Make the first transaction still on their log-record deposit since they accepted balance can be credited with 0 confirmation and to be withdraw the transaction must have 1 confirmation. It's also make a problem for me.
But they handle is good, manually remove the first one and I can withdraw my money without KYC or anything. I think "Sportbet" should try to look first the case, for what-case user do the double spending.

Ah I don't know. I used to bet with stake and they did not mind double spending. I Messaged sportsbet.io on here and finally have someone looking at it so fingers crossed. Literally nothing bad to say about the site because its the only site my friends use... Until I opened up my own account. My shit luck man.
Why would double spending be a problem? Do they accept zero confirmation deposits? If so, that's dumb. If not, they didn't risk anything from your double spent deposit.
I opened up an account with Sportsbet.io and deposited about 250 dollars worth of bitcoin, after I had won my bet I tried to withdraw and it did not let me. Eventually the team wanted me to KYC which I did successfully. After a couple of days, they replied that I had used a double spent on my bitcoin and took my winnings and my deposit. I tried emailing them again because this was 100 percent not true but they have not been responding to me. The day I deposited my bitcoin there was a backlog on the blockchain. Eventually I sent the same transaction again so that it could be confirmed quicker. But this ended up getting my money taken. I have only heard good things about sportsbet.io and it sucks that this happened to me. Most of my friends and even my girlfriend had an account with them that works fine. Of course it?s me that got the crap end of the stick. My username is jumpy192
