Sportnation.bet Review

Great bookies, personally I've never had any issues with deposits or withdrawals and the odds are always competitive

Reply

Odds are good, had a few negative experiences but mostly good, there has been a few occasions that I've had a free bet that I have not been able to place, they have worked most of the time, a few more sports offers would be good.

Never had a problem with the site. And started with some good new promos. Keep the coming.

Wish there’s an option for zero star. Pls stay away from them. After submitting all necessary documents they then ask for P60 or Payslip they call it affordability check. Then when you request for the account to be closed and return your funds then they start acting up. They are the worst ever I’ve come in contact with and won’t touch them with my enemy’s fund again ever . Pls people stay away

Have been using this bookie for a few weeks now and I like them. The weekly fan club is good and I've never had any issues with withdrawals like some other bookies.

I don't find this firm any better or worse than the competition – it would be nice to see more promotions giving us the chance to win free bets

Gambling companies are rogues…. If you win they don't give you the money and if you lose they take your money. Stop funding all gambling companies and stop watching sports because they are being funded by these lowlife scum of the earth. Anyone gambling business are the scum of the earth.. They're all going took the lake both bosses and workwrs who support them!

How can one company have so many people complaining about live chat and it not be resolved. What's the point in saying contact live chat between 12 and 10pm in the replies if it's not working?? And this isn't a one off either. It's down a lot of the time. If you email them they say 48 hours but rarely is and sometimes no reply at all. How can this be acceptable in 2020? How hard is it to reply to emails and have live chat working????

Don't know if can through the hassle of depositing for football especially reading below how they cancelled some guys bet. Winning is hard enough with stressing if they've accepted the bet. Not a well run company it seems

I've created a Trustpilot account just to write this review and reiterate what everyone else is saying: avoid this company.

I placed three different bets on the same horse. As the odds increased I thought I'd bet more and more.

I placed two bets for 50 and one bet for 100. I checked back later that day after the horse won only to find that they cancelled and totally removed the 100 bet from my account. I keep log of all the bets that I make and add them to a spreadsheet as soon as place them so I know this bet was 100% placed, yet according to them there's no reference to it. Shocking.

Worst betting site I have ever used. Terrible customer service, and bonus offers are just a trick to take money out from your wins. Avoid

My username is kontaktas1991

You have closed my account and held my money for over 10 days now even though I was promised that money will be with me no longer than after 3-5 working days (I have screenshots of my conversation with one of your employees through the chat)

I have contacted you again today to which I was told 'apologies for any inconvenience your funds will definitely be with you shortly' without the same employee giving me a timescale this time to when my funds will be cleared.

I have sent you at least 5 emails with evidence and it seems that the only way this will be resolved is through other legal channels.

Good site & easy to navigate. From time to time they also have some great offers.

DO NOT USE !!
If you are fortunate enough to win money with Sportsnation good luck on ever getting your hands on it.
They will concoct any number of reasons/excuses to not allow you to withdraw it.
Chat session just more fobbing off.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
I can only assume that the 5 star reviews on here are fake.

The most incompetent bookie I've ever come across in 10 years. Account closed

Worse than hopeless

Reply

Can never get hold of anyone to sort my numerous problems out

I should have known when I signed up and they wouldn't give me my bonus because didn't enter promo code they were bad news

Never come across such unprofessional outfit in my life😠😡

I've learnt my lesson now

Reply

Don't normally leave reviews but they are without doubt the worst bookmakers ive ever come across in my life and that takes some doing believe me

No point going through why as others have covered it better reading the reviews. Suffice to say ignorant customer lack of service is one of the main reasons I wont be using them ever again Aint worth the aggro running around chasing replies and getting fobbed off

Wish wasn't restricted elsewhere as wouldn't go near them in a month of Sundays. I'm always very dubious about places I can't telephone

The customer support is truly horrendous. I don't get the 5 star review below. Has he ever tried to contact them and been frustrated beyond belief? Obviously not. It's as if they're saying you know what we'll deliberately ignore emails and turn chat off to see how angry we can get our clientle

Reading through the reviews on here it seems they ignore other people's emails as well as mine
What's the point in replying on here. Why no just reply to their or my emails in the first place?? How can you not reply to so many people?? 

Live chat might as well not exist as always switched off.  I'm guessing staffing is low as  I always get a reply from the same person

Would not want to win a big amount from these as you'd be waiting a long time I fear. If they can't reply to emails you send about events and odds they're hardly going to care about replying about your winnings

Reply

Just doing a follow up. This is unquestionably the worst betting site ever, and I wish I wasn't restricted from the others. Limiting exposure on certain games, settling winning bets as void, and using every trick there is to stop people winning.

I don't mean the usual bookie tricks either. It is a shame the industry is practically unregulated because SportNation would surely be closed down. You're unlikely to find a worse betting site anywhere. I am done with them anyway.

Reply

Not bad at all, only thing it lacks is it doesn’t offer best odds guaranteed. Bets settled quickly

Reply

What's going on??? Been waiting a wk for a reply
Everytime I go onto live chat it never works

Pathetic

Reply

I,m glad it,s not just me
Looking at social media you,re ignoring people, settling winners as losers & seemingly not caring a jot. You can,t act like this and not expect to lose customers.

It,s an utter shambles

Reply

I'm assuming all the people who have left 5 star reviews haven't tried to contact live chat all day only to see it constantly unavailable? I'm assuming they haven't contacted customer support via email only to be ignored for 5 days and counting. I emailed them Sunday and still waiting for them to reply

In fact Id love to hear why they have felt the need to give them a great review in the first place. I guess people care more about free spins or free bets than telling the truth.

No doubt another fresh batch of 5 stars reviews will appear soon and all the 1 star ones will be hidden out of sight

I emailed them sunday about forthcoming golf as live chat was down. The golf actually started yesterday and I've still had no reply so you've lost a customer. Well done Sportnation. Probably naive expecting a reply within 4 days

I did laugh out loud at 5 star review below. Had no problems everything seems to work fine. Yeah sure

Oh dear you're going to be in for a shock when you need support which is non existent aren't you?

Reply

Bored now of them
Tolerated it for a while but too much hassle to get anything done. You have to wait ages to get withdrawals processed. Problems with video feed, problems with odds and if you try and get in touch with them you simply don't get a reply – *that's the unacceptable thing in my eyes the fact they don't care about customer service and live chat is always mysteriously disabled
No idea if they are overrun or not interested but it's not good enough. I'm surprised they have any customers left

Shouldn't be this much hassle when you're trying to get on bet on. If they cant be bothered then I'll go elsewhere

Reply

Best way to deal with these ***** is to starve them of your business. Maybe then they'll actually switch live chat on or reply to emails you send them

Don't make me laugh as if anyone real would give them 5 stars. They don't deserve 1 star.

They only have Giles who seems to work there!!!!

Reply

Eventually managed to get my money back after 8 days waiting no thanks to them

The worst customer services the world ever saw. Live chat down 99% of the time has to be on purpose and if you email the company you will do well to get a reply from 1 out of every 10 emails you send and then only a few words in reply. I don't know whether they only have 2 staff members or what but quite frankly I'm past caring now

All the people leaving 5 stars obviously never had to contact customer service or waited over a week before you get your money. Makes a mockery of review site tbh

Very good!! Recommend

SportNation runs a decent site, and has gives a range of good offers. I can happily recommend it.

Sport nation is a decent, trustworthy casino with a great choice of slots and great odds on a wide range of sports. Very pleased with the service. The only criticism is that you can't make small deposits to top up account.

Great site plenty bonuses very helpful customer service would recommend

This is a great site, they offer competing odds , very good promotions and always settle promptly. I like the fact they offer rewards for customer business, it’s show loyalty and a partnership. Would definately recommend. NG

Have had no problems with Sport Nation so far.
Everything seems to work ok.

I don't normally leave negative reviews but after the issues I've had so far though it's important to state the facts so other customers can make an independent decision based on truths and save themselves time and frustration. I was a member of sportnation since it's inception and enjoyed using the site as other reviews have discussed they did offer decent promotions and customer service.

I was also part of their VIP program for a number of years which was fantastic I had an account manager, offered industry leading promotions and went to an event or two one of them being a redzonesports event where I met the team behind the site and a old NFL star. It became clear that redzone and sportnation are american brands and the UK market is a springboard to eventually launch or sell the brands in the USA.

I eventually fell out of favour with sportnation as my account ended up in profit (a big no no for VIPs) and my stake limits were reduced to <10%.

Then recently (in the last few months) my accounts were locked stating i needed to provide bank statement, new id and all that jazz. As I bet a fair amount still and have other VIP status i noticed this was becoming the new normal because new AML and source of wealth regulation.

And this is where the problem lies, I've sent the required information off multiple times and get no reply. I try live chat but there are no agents available and no one replies to messages sent over a month ago (it's bad) and yes you could say it's because of covid-19 but not to reply to messages is boarding on madness.

To add to the situation they have been brought out an american company guess the dream did come true,

esportsinsidercom/2020/08/esports-entertainment-group-acquires-argyll-entertainment

so maybe a change or shake up of management has caused the problems I've talked of and that other people are having.

Bank statements and KYC can easily make up a profile of customers that they might not like or deem risky (since bookmakers are in the risk management business these days). Myself and other people having this problem are having their messages sent straight to junk mail (maybe?)

So avoid the company for now at least until they sort out the issues they have. To add most of the 5 star reviews are paid for or fake they have in the past offered me free spins and bets for reviews. Most of the decent big four bookies have one star on trustpilot when it comes to money, betting and emotions people leave bad reviews when they lose just seems odd they have four stars. Make up your own mind.

So given my past experience and recent they get 2 star and this might change if they contact me and sort stuff out.

You are seriously getting reviews removed because it tells the truth how bad you are??? That was 4 hours ago you reported it yet you can't reply to the customer below??

Just like the guy below it took 3-4 days to get an abrupt reply each time but now I'm waiting for reply from email from a week ago and live chat is disabled so can't contact you??? What kind of way is this to run a company. What's going on???

It is absolutely atrocious. If I don't hear from you soon You can deal with the UKGC and IBAS

I'll never use you ever again after this. Shocking experience you can't treat customers this way

Reply

WOW what a coincidence 10 new 5 star reviews all at the same time and the bad ones disappeared. Must really think people are dumb

Here's my genuine review and I unlike the blatant ones below haven't been paid in free bets or spins to leave my review

Awful company hence why have to offer incentives for reviewers

If you bet on a horse racing event there is no live stream of race. You don't get best odds guaranteed and limits very poor. In this technological age the fact not able to watch is poor but even worse is no b.o.g as standard

Customer care is woeful live chat and email both seem to be operated by the same person and if you email you will do well to get a reply within a week usually though they'll ignore it. I'm sure they only have 1 person doing both jobs

As for the great promotions the reviewers underneath this review are going on about, what are they??? Free bets don't exist and all you get are reward points and even for a €1 free bet you have to get 1100 points that'd not a great promotion. If you want best odds guaranteed that costs you the fortune 50,000 points

Oh and did I mention 72 hours before your withdrawal is processed???

So this is real review unlike the 5***** ones below which obviously aren't

Nothing good about sportnation

Reply

Really like SportNation, they have great promotions, and any time I've used Live Chat, they've been really helpful and have solved my query quickly.

My only issue at the moment is that Live Chat has been unavailable for the last few days and I could do with a chat! 🙂

Great site with great offers. Never had an issue with them.

Reply

Very happy with the service and product suite. Withdrawals nice and fast. Only downside, but not a major one, is the deposit that can take a good 30 seconds to a minute to refresh in the balance.

Reply

Good site and offers. Layout is good but live chat not easily accessible.

Only issue is to deposit you have to do a 25 transaction. Which is a lot especially in the current climate.

Reply

Sportnation is a very good gambling site. Interesting and diverse loyalty offers for members. Acca bonuses include doubles, which is rare, and nice little casino rewards every now and then to Sports bettors. I do tend to go back to Sportnation regularly

Reply

I'm guessing the 2 review below mine are paid for cos not my experience at all.

No incentives no free bets no ability to watch what you put your hard earned cash on which narked me….

Went on live chat with a problem and didnt get resolved to my satisfaction in fact was useless so sent an email instead
The same person on live chat replied to the email. What are the odds of that. Do they only have 1 member of staff?

Reply

Good book, with regular offers, reasonable prices, decent website and good communications.

Sport nation offers good odds on varied sports with some good promotions too

Reply

My experience so far has been that i find the website easy and straightforward. The format is easy to negotiate and any wins are credited to account very promptly.

i would recommend sportnation plenty of offers excellent service
