The lowest odds on the market! MLB playoffs, NHL games they literally offer ONE market. No withdrawals over the weekend, make you wait for your winnings and as you see below, literally don’t give a cr^p! Their app doesn’t work properly and they often mark bets as a loss when in fact it won. I would stay very clear of this company and LOOK AT MY SCREENSHOTS ATTACHED
Wish I read these reviews before depositing. Same rubbish email claiming money laundering. Sent them an email with a letter. Rang them and they said it would be sorted but wasn't. They are Thieves! It only $100 but so not use them!
Deposited $500 and won $1075 they then closed my account and told me to verify all my documents via a Justice of the peace. Seriously I verified my account and you accept my bet but then you go pull this shady crap. Bet you wouldn’t have done that if I had lost. Flagged my account for “money laundering” ok buddy. What a joke
Hold all tickets racing program actively promote Boombet. Boombet failed to accept $10 bet on Via Sistina at $4. A partial bet of $1 was accepted at $4. False advertising. It is a disgrace. This behaviour needs to be stopped.
Refused to payout stolen my $6000 winnings – Terrible scam company ran away with my $6000 that I should have won. Everyone avoid. Ruined my Christmas. I bet $700 on a horse paid 5.5 to one and I won Then I bet Nbl 2000$ multi with my winnings and won paying $3.6 Then I lost one Nbl $2000 multi My account got frozen and I got sent an email saying that I cheated somehow and did a fraud… Read more
against them and my bets are now void and I have to go to the NT gaming commission to put a dispute if I want to get paid.
I bet at the tab regularly on horses and Nbl and I offered to show them a transaction statement proving this. They have not replied since then to any emails or calls and said I have to dispute with the gaming commission.
I am shocked. And angry. Ruined my Christmas . Unbelievable. Was so happy to win now I have a headache.
Scum of the earth. Stay away – Don't go near them. They are thieve. I won some bets. Tried to withdraw. They locked my account and sent email claiming obligations regarding anti-money laundering. They've since cancelled all my bets and refuse to give me my initial deposit back. Scum of the earth. Stay away
Trying to keep my money – Awful site if I could give 0 stars I would. I signed up and was offered a $100 bonus bet so I put $100 down. I put the bonus bet on an underdog and it lost (oh well). I put my $100 down for a small win and withdrew. A couple hours later I get an email saying they think in laundering money and need to go get verified by a justice of the peace. Who… Read more
would launder $118? Clearly they just don't like that I didn't lose my money and they are trying to make it difficult. I put through a complaint to the gaming ombudsman and am awaiting a response.
Come a long way – I used BoomBet a fair bit when I was just picking off some odds but they weren't good to use as a regular option. That has changed now as they have stuff liek SGM and the speed of the app is much better. I get my fair share of money back races, but would like more promos on stuff like same games. Haven't spoken to the support team much, but no issues. Definitely not the best, but they get a share of my regular betting now.
Amateurs and hacks – After they lured me in with great AFL football odds, I was advised by the customer chat, the maximum bet was $10. Fair enough. I asked him if there were any promotions for my first deposit and he said 'no'. So, I only deposited $30 using my card details and CVV no. Another window came up immediately after my deposit, that said they would take… Read more
another amount with a cents amount to verify my account. Nothing was showing on my balance, so I went through the process again. I checked my bank balance and nothing had been withdrawn yet, but now my balance Boom bet balance said $90.96. I checked my bank balance again and sure enough, 2 x $30 and 1 x S30.96 had been withdrawn, with the $30.96 being the second transaction. I had spent enough time on chat, so instead of arguing, and getting nowhere, I placed 3 bets using the whole balance, except the .96 cents. To my surprise I seen an email that said they would match my first deposit in bonus bets to the amount of $100. I rang the customer service number and told what had happened, that the guy on chat had told me there wasn't a bonus for first deposit, yet here was an email saying the contrary. I explained to her, that I wasn't going to be checking emails while I was involved in their chat. I told her that I had accidently deposited twice, and they had double dipped on the third, and I should be entitled to the full deposit amount of $90, seeing that the three transactions were made within a minute. She spoke to her supervisor, after telling me there wasn't one available, and they credited $30 out of $90. I said it wasn't good enough and asked if I could just abort and get a refund. For some odd reason, she wanted my account details. instead of putting it directly back onto my debit card. That was nearly five hours ago. I rang just now and they said all withdrawals are made at 3pm Melbourne time and would probably show up in my account in two working days!!I said it wasn't a withdrawal, it was a refund. I have no proof that they had refunded me, no email, and seeing that my account is closed, I have no access to it. Keep away from these shonky operaters. If customer service do not know the inner operations of the company, who can you talk to who does. The worst bookmaker service I have ever experienced. What a waste of my morning.
Thieves – Closed my account, stealing $500. Accused me of money laundering.
By far the worst bookmaker in Australia – I’m been a gambler for almost 30 years. Been punting with boombet for about 10 months. I’m one of the few punters who has a winning account. Last week boombet emailed me to advise my account no longer is entitled to any promos anymore because I always use the promos. The account is also restricted in betting amounts. What an absolute disgrace. How… Read more
is even legal??? They offer u the world when ur loosing ur money, but once ur account is a winning one, they cut u off. Expect a lot better especially from an Australian bookmaker. Government needs to regulate more with these grubs!!
Horrible company. Only out for your money – allowed me to deposit money. As soon as I won they blocked my account and asked for a JP witnessed ID and stat Dec. Then I went through all that and they stopped replying so have taken my initial deposit and not provided my winnings. Stay clear of them.
Complicated and unfair betting site – If I could give this site no stars I would. Everything about the site is not user friendly. One email asks me for feedback and another advises me that my difficult to understand promos are withdrawn despite the fact that I am losing at the moment. Obviously not fast enough. Web site is complicated and difficult to navigate. Odds are not that great. Steer clear.
