BetOnSports informed its clients that the Directive Board of the company decided to cancel every sponsor contract in order to obey the restriction imposed by the Department of Justice of the United States. BetOnSports still has to comply with a part of the restriction order that requires the company to give back funds to its clients in the United States. It hasn’t been informed if they will do so or if they will wait for the audience on August 1st.

Meanwhile, the Asian easybets.com remains open to business. The Asian site stopped offering its services to American clients. “This situation is bringing serious repercussions in the entire industry”, a booker said.

The decision of suspending payments temporarily is causing more and more concern among the thousands of clients that wonder about the destiny of their funds without an official answer.

Most of the industry’s people are pessimists about a positive solution to this matter: “The long silence of the board can only lead to bad speculations”, said the founder of TheOnlineWire.com. He added: “I experimented the stress from a similar situation a few years ago, in the middle of a problematic operation. I can realize the unbearable pressure that this people are exposed to, and pray for the survival of this operation for the sake of its workers, clients, actionists and the entire industry. If it doesn’t kill them it will make them stronger”.
