MG Sports Betting Closes

2 June 2022 |

MG Sports Betting (also known as Millionaires Gaming Sports Betting,) closes its doors after not even 2 years.

We reviewed Millionaires Gaming Sports Betting at the end of 2020. They impressed us with their new and existing player offers and looked to be a great new place for betting. But somehow things have not worked out for MG Sports betting and it closes down.

The MG Sports Betting site is showing a banner informing players that they will be shutting their doors. All players are advised to withdraw any balance remaining in their account. In addition, players will no longer be able to place any further bets.

Attempts to the contact support via the Live Chat was unsuccessful.

Therefore, we reached out via email to request information on how long we have to withdraw our funds. We also asked what will happen to any pending bets? Around 3 hours later we received a response.

The MG Sports Betting support team informed us that we had 7 days from the 1st of June to withdraw our funds. Moreover, players who have open pending bets will have these cancelled.

We recommend that players log in into their Millionaires Gaming Sports Betting accounts, check for remaining balances and request a withdrawal. Should you have a pending bet, please get in touch with the team who will assist you in resolving these. Players can also contact support on (021) 879 3900 should they have questions or want to discuss why MG Sports Betting closes.

It is never nice to see or hear of a business closing its doors, and we hope that this does not occur to other South African bookmakers any time soon.
