A Fanduel agent just told me “This currently is for users in Louisiana and New York. That promotion ended a couple weeks back” after I lost a $1000 bet and didn’t see the free bet. I got $100 in credit instead. So I guess Fanduel should get pulled?
That said something is going on, because all these pages have been taken down. That said, I don’t see how they can change this after the fact, given you betted when it was going on and well documented.
When I bet with SI it was similar to DraftKings, but now they’ve changed the promo to be a bit worse for those taking the standard deduction. You have to place 30 $10 bets to unlock 30 $10 free bets that do not return they’re stake
Strategy should be short odds for the cash bets, long odds for the free bets. Still worth doing, just a bit cumbersome. Thanks for spotting that!

What the agent said is false. Here’s the relevant webpages from earlier today, and a screenshot:

Thanks. I sent them this and chatted more but they stuck with their story and I don’t think I’ll be getting any other reimbursement.
Personally I I’d dispute the charge with my bank in that instance
Won the Paypal dispute :)
FanDuel ended up crediting my account after doing the same thing, and then reaching out to them on Twitter.
SI seems appx. equivalent to Draft Kings, but maybe I’m missing something?
