Im so disappointed in Hollywoodbets…

Im so disappointed in Hollywoodbets service.. I have withdrawn R2000 on my EFT on the 10th of June. Ive called a million times and send you guys 100 emails, no one is willing to assist get my money back. Each time I call they promise me that it will be in an hour then 24 then 48 hours, ive been waiting for all those hours but nothing is coming through still have not received my money back. They have asked me for my bank statement of witch i have provided but still no help. I really do need that money. It might not seem a lot to u but R2000 to me its a lot. I even called my bank and I was told that there is no blockage in preventing my money to come through. How much longer should i wait??? The last consultant i spoke to just hang up on me.. I really dont know what to do now. I need my money back pls.

Hi my name is feroza and I'd really appreciate it if hollywoodbets could get the manager to call me as soon as possible, because everytime I lay a complaint, my issue doesn't get resolved they tell me to hold on for the next available consultant I wait so long I massage them reminding them I'm still waiting still get no help then I log out cause I give up because they always do this then they reply, to make it look like I never responded but the truth is they made me stay on the line for them to get away with making it seem like they have resolved the issue,but they didn't and they know I complain and then I fight and when they say they checking on there side everything is normal on there side then I say okay and leave it there but this is not a small amount of money and I can't keep allowing the people that hollywoodbets got working for them cheat me everytime it's not fair

Hollywood bets in the past made you win…

Hollywood bets in the past made you win some and lose more. Now it's just lose, lose and lose. Free games are non existent and by miracle when they arrive you win R 40. By now you have spent over R 500. Is there any Onbudsman that controls online gambling. Oh, it's Souyh Africa, maybe the people overseeing gambling are the biggest winners. Online gambling is addictive, yet we see big adverts on all channels encouraging gambling. We'll smoking will kill you, but gambling will make u lose your family.

Complaint - Request for Impartial Review and Investigation Regarding Recent Ban (Chatsworth Hollywoodbets)

Hi

I am writing to formally raise my concerns regarding the manner in which I was treated upon my arrival at the branch on Sunday, 20 April 2025.

Upon arrival, I was denied entry by the VIP on duty. I immediately requested to speak with the on-duty manager. The VIP informed me that Tutu would brief me shortly. I had no objection to waiting, however, after more than 20 minutes, no one had approached me with any explanation. During this time, I overheard Adrian (branch manager) on the two-way radio asking, “Is he still there outside?” - an unprofessional and dismissive way to handle a customer, particularly in such a sensitive matter.

Adrian arrived roughly 5/10 minutes later and informed me that a decision had been made to ban me from all branches, based on video footage. I accepted the ban, but I requested clarification: Who made this decision? What process was followed? It appeared both biased and one-sided.

I pointed out that both parties involved in the incident should be subjected to the same disciplinary action. The footage reviewed did not include audio - a crucial detail, as the other individual involved used foul and provocative language, to which I reacted by pushing him away. The situation ended there and was peacefully resolved. It’s worth noting that both the STL and the VIP were present at the time of the incident and can confirm this account.

My concern is not about disputing the ban itself, but about the inconsistency in its application. Why was only I banned? A fair review of the footage will show that a second altercation began between that punter and another person at the card table - something that appears to have been conveniently overlooked.

I cannot help but feel that this decision stems from a personal bias against me - especially given my previous concerns raised regarding operational shortcomings at this branch. The response I received following that complaint led to visible hostility and an uncomfortable environment for me upon my return. I was even wrongly perceived as attempting to have staff dismissed.

Furthermore, Adrian requested an apology from me. For what, exactly? There was no damage to property, no injuries, and the situation was promptly de-escalated. I’ve witnessed more severe incidents - including situations involving firearms - where no written apologies were required from the parties involved.

Given all of the above, I am requesting that an independent and impartial investigation be conducted. This should not be overseen by senior management, as I have reason to believe there are close relationships influencing objectivity. I would appreciate if this matter is not discussed with Adrian’s subordinates, as my previous experience after lodging a complaint led to tension and an intimidating atmosphere.

Please note that I do not wish to remain anonymous, and I am more than willing to participate in any discussions or clarifications required.

I trust that this matter will be taken seriously and reviewed fairly.

Thank you

NB. There was an incident recently where a regular punter (doctor) was assaulted in the branch by two VIP punters, none of them where banned. It really helps to be on gangsters payroll I guess!

1 to 100 ratio of winning!

It's not possible to win less then any amount you put in on any day at anytime. You can never have a good winning streak. Honestly a bunch of thieves. Don't play! It's just handing over your money.
