We must say it again, though we touched on it before, users must try to remain vigilant. Look for things that don’t look right and always be aware of what may be deceitful practices.
Blacklisted Company
|
Reason for being blacklisted |
PWR.Bet |
There have been multiple reports from players who are not being able to cash out their winnings.
|
TopBet |
TopBet is one to avoid. Littered with a long, unanswered list of complaints from customers over the years. When it comes to
paying out, TopBet has let down customers time and time again.
|
Superbook |
Superbook is unreliable and has a lot of questions regarding payouts from the community, which never seem to get
addressed. Definitely a sportsbook best passing on.
|
SBG |
Another that has ruined their reputation due to a lack of payments to customers. Something sportsbooks will never get away
with is not paying out and any provider doing this, will always be found out.

Why were these bookmakers blacklisted?
We briefly touched on the blacklisted sportsbooks above. But we will now go into a bit more detail as to why these sportsbook providers were labelled not worthy for Canada Sports Betting customers.
PWR.Bet
PWR.Bet is failing to transfer the players' winnings. In many online forums and blogs, you can read the players' complaints. Communicating with PWR.Bet has been another problem. No cashouts, no replies to the players' inquiries.
TopBet
TopBet is a strange case, as for a long time the company was considered one of the best. Then in the summer of 2016, payments began to slow up and a lot of community stories began to unravel. It was found that some payouts were taking anywhere from 3-6 months. The company aimed to use a variety of scams, lies, tricks and in some cases outright fraud to siphon money from users.
Superbook
Superbook was caught out because it was using an enticing bonus and fancy website to lure in unsuspecting customers, only to find that the offers and promotions offered weren’t realized. The promises were all on paper, with these unmatched bonuses never being paid out. Another issue with Superbook is they were trying to avoid paying out to high balance accounts, which was ultimately one of the big reasons they were caught out.
SBG
SBG’s inception began in 1998, but from day one the whole thing was clearly a swindle. The company was caught out in shady operations from the very beginning. A combination of customer complaints, coupled with independent investigations into the company’s malpractice soon uncovered the issues.
