paid extra to make sure fanduel was gonna be okay financially
A FanDuel customer says he paid extra for injury protection on his bet.
Then a player got hurt and didn't return. Five days of review. Customer support allegedly refused to honor the protection.
What's the point of paying extra for protection if it doesn't protect you?

your money is safe with us’ doing some heavy fucking lifting here
A Caesars Sportsbook customer says six bets he never placed wiped out $42,450.
He reported suspected fraud. Caesars allegedly rejected his claim and permanently closed his account.
That's a pretty expensive way to find out a sportsbook disagrees with you.

“No risk” was referring to DraftKings’ business model. Sorry for the confusion.
DraftKings advertises “no-risk” promotions.
A lawsuit alleges those offers and its deposit promotions violated Pennsylvania consumer-protection law.
A federal judge allowed the claims to proceed. Maybe the "no risk" marketing wasn't so clear after all?

your bank account is down but don’t worry the app is having a record month
Business is booming for sportsbooks:
- Michigan: $55.5 million in September revenue.
- New Jersey: $72.9 million.
- Pennsylvania: $73.5 million before promotional deductions.
That's nearly $202 million across just three states in one month.

imagine asking a sportsbook to leave you alone and getting a parlay notification in response
A customer self-excluded from sports betting. That means stop.
But bet365 kept sending promotional notifications to people on North Carolina's self-exclusion list. The company blamed an error, regulators fined it $75,000.
Telling a sportsbook to stop isn't always enough.
