BetMGM Cancels $400K in Winnings from Veteran for "Obvious Errors"
Main Post:
You've heard of BetMGM trying to void $200K of winnings from a teacher, now it looks like they're attempting $400k from a veteran
Top Comment: Who gives a fuck if they’re a vet or teacher?
Why does BetMGM suck so bad?
Main Post:
First time using BetMGM for several days now, had numerous issues with things being locked. Today trying to bet some NBA prop parlays and it won't let me parlay any 2+ props together. First off, every single "Alternate Line" is locked whether its points, assists, rebounds, or 3s, they are all locked for every game. So the over/under is unlocked for all of those categories and will let you bet any one by itself, but won't let you parlay any of them together no matter what you select from sane game or different games.
By far the worst sportsbook ive used, which is crazy with how much they sped on advertising. Can't believe anyone out there uses them over DK or FanDuel.
Top Comment: They used to be so good and exploitable they would just throw you $200 or $500 deposit matches. You could bet baseball player prop unders on guys who pinch hit and if they got out that one plate appearance you hit on the under homeruns, rbi, whatever. I’m still mad at myself for not going all out in taking advantage of them, i got limited but could have done so much more damage before that.
Bet MGM online casino
Main Post:
What do you think of this online casino? I have found their free spins don't work half the time. It does give the occasional small jackpot but after putting in hundreds into a game. Just wondering what your experience has been with this casino.
Top Comment: I think it's a regulated online casino that's designed to take your money.
Has anyone who signed up for betmgm had this happen to them?

Has anyone else had this happen to them when signing up?
I was looking for a casino that offered first time user promotions for credits. I found this offer and signed up. I deposited my $10 and made my $10 bet. I never got my credits so I asked support what was going on and they said I had signed up for a different offer. Support just gave me the runaround saying they couldn’t switch my offers even though the one pictured is the one I signed up under & made my deposit for. Any advice?
Top Comment: report to gambling commission, and go to another book. i will never sign up to mgm now.
Is MGM the only book that does this?
Main Post:
First of all, not too upset with not winning this bet but found this really surprising, especially considering any future bets I would do.
I had a parlay last night on the dodgers game, nothing special. Soto didn’t end up playing so that leg of the parlay was voided.
MGM completely voided the entire bet, even though the rest of the legs hit. I’m like 99% sure other betting sites/apps would have paid out the bet at reduced odds but I wanted to see if anyone had any insight into if MGM is the only book that does this.
If so, I’ll just stick to 365 or Fanduel going forward. Thanks guys!
Top Comment: Fanduel just removes the leg and altered the odds when it happened to me
Betmgm is by far the worst app i have ever used in my entire life
Main Post: Betmgm is by far the worst app i have ever used in my entire life
Top Comment: The app developers at mgm figured they would take a shortcut and just do a bunch of webviews inside a shell so it’s pretty shitty. You would think a company that spends 100s of millions on promotions would spend maybe 1-5 million and put together a good app.
Be Careful Betting At BetMGM Sportsbook
Main Post:
I would urge everyone to be very careful when betting with BetMGM Sportsbook. They can claim "Bonus Abuse" and then just steal your money, even if you never actually receive a bonus.
In my case I deposited $1600. I made a $1000 bet and two $300 bets. All three of my bets won, resulting in a total balance of $5452.16. I never received a bonus of any kind. Even so, BetMGM claimed "Bonus Abuse", sent me my $1600 back, closed my account, and seized the $3852.16 that I won.
If they did this to me, they can do it to you. Be careful.
Edit 1 - 2:05 PM Eastern Time 8/22/23: Many people are questioning aspects of what transpired. I'm posting some screenshots, to add credibility. Many of the comments below were made before I added these screenshots, so do not think posters were saying things that did not make sense, as they may have said them before these images were added. Thanks.
Edit 2 - 11:34 AM Eastern Time 8/23/23: I have added a copy of the response from the MD Division of Gaming. They never actually investigated the case beyond taking BetMGM Sportsbook's word for the fact that their terms and conditions were violated.
Edit 3 - 11:46 AM Eastern Time 8/23/23: I have added the responses from the MD Division of Gaming to the second complaint I filed. I did supply much more information, and then received the second, very brief, response.
Response to my second complaint Response to my second complaint, after I supplied more information Response to my first complaint Withdrawal, showing the bets had settled Winning parlay bet Winning straight betsTop Comment: Bro, you got fucked. Plain and simple. Your rep ain’t going to do shit either. The best thing to do is donate blood plasma to get back the amount won and then put it all on Women’s tennis. I’m not even going to post my cashapp, cause I’m giving you this advice for free.
