ScoreBet is a reputable company that offers online sport betting services. This company has a couple of years of presence in the internet gambling sphere and currently, it’s licensed by KZNGBB.

This online betting system uses BetTech’s 1.14.1 version and looks quite more different than the rest of the pages that run on the same platform basically because of its light colour scheme which does not strain your eyes or mind when using it.

The first thing that is going to make you a huge impression when entering the desktop website version is the lack of any main menu in the top side of your screen. All of the links are, instead, transferred on your left side. Such an arrangement confused the bookie’s newest customers that are used to the convenience of switching from one to another leading page via the standard way for the purpose.

Although this bookie has its weak points we are also going to name in this review, we have to admit that ScoreBet has been advancing in a very positive way during the last couple of years by raising its new customer bonus (to be more specific, the bonus has been multiplied with 4 as an amount – from the modest R 500 to the generous offer of R 2 000), as well as by improving the mobile website version and by adding the live betting service, which though is yet too poor in bets.

Joining ScoreBet

The registration button in the desktop website isn’t located on the place where you expect it to find. It is on the contrary, placed right above the bet slip, which is in the right side of the page.

The next (and the last) step you need to make in order to open your official ScoreBet account is filling in all of the fields that are marked with red “*” – in other words, this symbol shows you that the field with it is a must to be filled in, while the rest fields are not. The registration in this bookie is impossible without providing your personal details.

Transactions in ScoreBet

ScoreBet works with the popular vouchers 1voucher so you can deposits funds with an ease by buying such a voucher and, then by informing the bookmaker’s customer support representatives for it.

The other method you can use in order to fund you playing account with money is by making a bank transfer. The betting company has bank accounts in three of the biggest banks in South Africa – FNB, Nedbank and Standard Bank. There’s no matter what bank account you will prefer to send the money to.
Please, have in mind that if you make a deposit via bank transfer, you will have to provide evidence about it by sending a copy of the deposit slip. This is, according to us, one very boring obligation you need to perform as the gambling company can practically check out the validity of your transaction. It is not by chance that most of the rest betting operators in our country do not have such a requirement for your deposits.

ScoreBet does not have any maximum deposit limit, but it requires from you to fund your accounts with not less than the amount of R 100.

What can you place a bet on in ScoreBet?

ScoreBet has significantly increased the quality of its services by adding the option for placing a bet in real time. However, the live bets are still too few and they definitely do not correspond to the latest modern standards. Yet, it’s better to have few instead of no live bets, right?

We don’t have any negative critics to mention as to the betting operator’s pre-match betting program. The pre-match bets are more than just find when it comes to the available markets or the odds. Indeed, this bookie does not offer thousands of matches per day – like many of the competitors do, including the leaders in the industry – but you can be confident that no big sport event is going to be forgotten by ScoreBet. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same thing about the live betting program.

The wide range of long-term bets especially for the English premium football league surprises in a really good way as here we have a choice of several exotic market types. For instance, while anywhere else you can make predictions for the goal scorers in the championship, here in this betting website you additionally get markets for the goal scorers per each team of the league. Among the rest of our favourite markets from the Premium league we also should mention the following ones: “Which newbie from the elite is going to perform the best way?”, “Which team from London / South England / North-Western England is going to be in the top of the chart” and many other similar markets.

The punters can also have fun while betting with numerous traditional lotteries and the offers by Betgames.

Does ScoreBet offer any bonuses?

Sport fans in ScoreBet do not have an access to promotions that are available round the whole year as the only fixed offer in this betting platform is the one for new customers. According to the terms and conditions for this bonus you will receive 100% bonus up to R 2 000. This special offer is available, by the way, for the customers from all the countries in Africa, but not only for those from South Africa.

Please, though, take under consideration the fact the bookie’s software does not support the function for automatic calculation of the bonus and you need to contact the customer support team for the purpose. Use this WHATSAPP number – 072 271 3685 – or this email: support@scorebet.co.za to claim for adding the bonus amount to your account balance. It is a must to contact the support team before placing your first bet with the deposit you have made after the registration.

Playing the bonus amount requirement: bets that are at a total amount equal to the bonus amount multiplied with 6

Although there’s no other promotion that is available round the whole year, it is a good idea to constantly check out the page Promos for offers as most of them are with limited validity duration. Speaking of which, such temporary promotions are very often in this betting page. Moreover – lots of them seem quite interesting and in extra ordinary. Here’s one example for you – the betting page used to have an offer for a bonus of R 100 that was given to those punters who made predictions on the number of the scores within the first match Cristiano Ronaldo played with its new team Juventus.

ScoreBet’s mobile website version looks quite well especially when being used in a scenery mode on tablets or smartphones with larger screens as the sensation is very close to the one when using the desktop website version on an ordinary PC. In this same mode the bet slip goes to the traditional for many betting pages location which is in the right side of the screen, while the bets remain in the left side.

The official Scorebet site went down a few days ago and punters are looking for answers as to why the site is down. We at Best Sports Betting have done a little digging and can confirm that the site is still down and we’re not entirely sure why. If you are a Scorebet customer and have pending bets or a balance then we’re happy to share a few steps you should be taking.

Scorebet Outage Update

Scorebet have fully restored their services and are fully operational again.

How long will Scorebet be down for?

It’s already established that when you visit the Scorebet site you get a 502 gateway error. For those that don’t know what the error is :

The 502 Bad Gateway error is an HTTP status code that means that one server on the internet received an invalid response from another server. 502 Bad Gateway errors are completely independent of your particular setup, meaning that you could see one in anybrowser, on anyoperating system, and on anydevice. The 502 Bad Gateway error displays inside the internet browser window, just like web pages do.

This points to a problem with either Scorebet or their Software provider, Bettech. Bettech provide Scorebet with their odds feeds and support so it could be a problem with either, we just aren’t sure.

What have Scorebet announced?

Soccer

Scorebet Soccer Fixtures Download

There’s been little from Scorebet on the issue, the only update we got was from contacting them directly and from a post on their Facebook page.

They mention their site being down and that they are working on it but don’t give a timeline which means the issue is likely pretty serious. There have been no further updates from Scorebet since the Facebook post on the 7th October 2019.

What can I do?

If you have pending bets or funds in your Scorebet account there is not much you can do for the moment. There’s clearly something going on and we understand that punters want to get their money out incase its a permanent closure. If you have funds in your Scorebet account we recommend taking the following steps :

  • Decide if you want to withdraw your funds or wait for more information from Scorebet
  • Contact Scorebet to request the funds be manually withdrawn by them or when they’ll be able to process a withdrawal
  • Should Scorebet not be able or willing to assist you’ll need to let them know that you are unhappy and will take the matter further
  • The last step would be to lodge a complaint against the bookmaker with the NBG (National Gaming Board) who will look into the matter for you, however this could take months and still have no resolution

What we recommend you do

Scorebet Soccer Prediction

Don’t panic, not yet! They’ve only been down for a few days, for those that remember Supabets was down with a similar issue for almost a week. Our advise is to sit tight until closer to the weekend. If there are still no announcements or changes then it’s time to start looking at a few of the options mentioned above.

If you’re looking for a replacement for Scorebet while the site is down we recommend you head over to Betway. You can read more about what they have to offer in our Betway Review plus they have a Free R10 for new customers.
