@ActionApp Please return to the prior version of the app from yesterday. There are way too many clicks required now. It was fine the way it was.

@snowman_sports @bet365 why are the fees no longer covered over $10 in IL?

[Illiniwek @mrchiefilly]

FYI to bettors that live in Illinois: Bet365 is charging the 25¢ fee on all bets now, even if it’s more than $10

[BDN since 2007 @NicholasBarnard]

@bet365 why did you stop covering the fee on bets made in Illinois?

Would have been nice to see some communication on that

[Snowman Sports @snowman_sports]

Did Bet365 start charging anyone else in Illinois fees today?

I took a bet last night they covered the fee, now today I have to pay it???

Is my account now fried? 😭

[Juice8ox Wrld @juice8ox]

@bet365 Why did you stop waiving the fee for bets placed in IL over 10?

[The CHE-PAC @SoothSayerChe]

Got another one of these for yesterday. Second one this month. 🏀😂📈

Tried to get Nevada +8.5 in parlay too for 8 legger, but it didn't register. Cost me ~3k in profits 😂 but cant complain. Up to +42% ROI on 500 bets this year. Overall, 8,678 publicly tracked bets on @pikkitsports as @ekrapil. Up 8.5k

@JBPritzker I know balancing taxes with the publics' support & their needs to fix an inherited deficit is very hard, but dont keep raising taxes on sports bets. ANYTHING is better

Investment bank Jefferies says that it's "likely" DraftKings copies what FanDuel is doing in Illinois, which is impose a 50-cent "transaction fee" on all bets placed in the state in response to the recently approved per-bet tax there:

[Ryan Glasspiegel @sportsrapport]

Oh, so that’s why FanDuel and DraftKings are facing the asinine 50 cents per bet tax https://t.co/V1zXWhZLlE

[Front Office Sports @FOS]

DraftKings will charge bettors a $0.50 transaction fee on all mobile and online bets in Illinois.

It follows FanDuel's decision to add the same per-bet fee after Illinois passed new taxes on sportsbooks.

[Front Office Sports @FOS]

FanDuel will charge bettors in Illinois $0.50 per bet after new taxes passed by Illinois.

The sportsbook says it is disappointed in the new tax imposed by Illinois and that it will "disproportionately impact lower wagering recreational customers."

Details from @sportsrapport ⬇️

[Chicago Sun-Times @Suntimes]

FanDuel will charge a $0.50 fee for every online sports bet in Illinois starting in September. They say this is due to a new state tax on sportsbooks, which aims to help close a $1 billion state budget gap.

Flutter Entertainments' FanDuel has announced it will initiate a 50 cent surcharge on all wagers in Illinois.

The per bet tax is a response to Illinois’ recent tax hike, which will impose a 25 - 50 cents per accepted wager in addition to the 20 - 40% revenue tax to sportsbooks.
