Let us know if you've already recovered your deposit. I assume if you don't speak up here, that you get your money back.
Lol. His money is most probably gone and you know it. Did you seriously forget how untrustworthy 1xbit is for a few bucks? Your pretentious behaviour makes you look stupid.
I also don't think we can fault 1xbit in this matter. Someone who is a gambling addict must take responsibility for his or her gambling behavior. It is not that you are forced to deposit the money on a site.
You are supporting a site like Betking for a quick buck which is why your advice makes you look like a hypocrite in my opinion. Reflect on your own actions first before trying to advise others.
