(c) Where theScore Bet has reasonable grounds to believe that you have participated in, or have been connected with, any type of Suspicious Betting, it shall use reasonable efforts to investigate such matter, including, but not limited to, through the use of various collusion, suspicious betting, fraud and cheating detection practices which are used in the gambling industry.
(d) Where a Wager is deemed to be, or is declared, void by theScore Bet prior to an event, any sum deducted from your Account with respect to that Wager shall be credited back to your Account.

The availability of withdrawn funds may be subject to standard banking restrictions.
(e) Third Party Payment Processors. theScore Bet may use one or more third party payment processors to process deposit and withdrawal requests. You acknowledge and understand that theScore Bet’s payment processors may impose limits on the number of bank accounts you may associate with your Account, impose limits on the number of credit or debit cards you may use on the Service, perform ‘know-your-customer’ procedures to verify your identity, and perform anti-money laundering, anti-fraud, and source of funds verification when you deposit and withdrawal funds to and from your Account.
(f) Eligible Balance. In order to facilitate the provision of the Services to you in the Permitted Jurisdictions, theScore Bet allows you to direct theScore Bet to make your Eligible Balance (as defined below) available to you for wagering in each Permitted Jurisdiction in which you have an Account. As you travel into each Permitted Jurisdiction, you must consent to theScore Bet making your Eligible Balance available in your Account for the Permitted Jurisdiction in which you are physically located while you use the Services. Each Permitted Jurisdiction may have its own criteria in determining whether certain funds are permitted to be used for wagering, which shall be the determination of existing funds that will be made available to you in each Permitted Jurisdiction (the “Eligible Balance”). For example, if you have an Account in a Permitted Jurisdiction which permits credit card deposits and subsequently travel to another Permitted Jurisdiction which prohibits credit card deposits, your Eligible Balance for wagering will not include funds that are associated with credit card deposits. You hereby acknowledge and agree that certain Permitted Jurisdiction may restrict the availability of certain portions of the funds in your Account for wagering, and in such instances, such portions of funds in your Account remains on your Account and may be withdrawn from your Account, but will not be an Eligible Balance for wagering within that Permitted Jurisdiction. Funds, as used in this section, shall mean cash and cash equivalent, including without limitation, bonus bets, bonus spins, eligible cashback, and other credits, available to be used for wagering purposes within the Services.

It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that all of the details of each wager are correct. Once a wager has been confirmed by theScore Bet, that wager cannot be canceled by the customer. If you have any concern as to whether your wager has been accepted, please log in and go to the ‘My Bets’ pages of the Service where details of all live wagers entered into by you will be displayed.
