Hello Fellow Betfairians and Merry X-mas,

Is anyone of you (pro's) aware of 'what to do now' / who to contact (if any) to recoup money on betting accounts with S t r y y k e?

Not going into a discussion as to 'why' having chosen this bookie. I quickly understood they had problems and wanted to 'get out' when problems were arising, I tried to 'lay off' a bet at odds 10 with Strykke. Unfortunately it 'won' hence suddenly having EUR XXXX on an account with them while haveing lost same with other books.

Does anyone of you know (if) it is possible to write anyone in order to 'complain'? The "Malta Lottery/Gaming Board" has revoked the bookmakers' licence and S t r y y k e is not responding to e-mails?

I believed that a 'Maltese bookie' by law was supposed to put customers money on a 'seperate account', no?

Any help/suggestion similar stories would be received with many, many thanks...

Brgds,
TMWTGR

There's no good news here, but it might help you keep an eye on any moves that other people make

You should also contact the LGA in Malta and at least see what they have to say.

*I'd approach it from the angle of "I had the bets in good faith that you were monitoring the company properly"

I'm not the most tactful of souls, so you'd be better off writing your own along that theme

Your first contact is the LGA but they are next to useless - I had issues with Sunderlands Online but thankfully got paid out before they went bust.

Try - frances.blenheim@lga.org.mt

Look on Bookmakers Review and SBR - there are others in your situation but I fear the worst.
