BetAfterBet says payment problems were caused by a technical glitch

This is not a technical glitch, but an underfunded operator with no experience. And is what the Lotteries and Gaming Authority should address instead of keep on lying trying to protect the racket called “Malta online gambling industry”.
At the end of October the Times of Malta (for once) reported about the problems with BetAfterBet announcing that the LGA's investigation revealed that BetAfterBet's parent company Bonobet Ltd encountered payment difficulties.
The LGA then told the Times of Malta that they have withdrawn tens of licenses following player complaints but curiously in this specific case the bookmaker's management promised to make all payments and the LGA announced that it would monitor the process.
Apparently the journalist of the Times of Malta didn't think this decision was in contrast with the LGA's earlier claim and didn't think to ask for a list of bookmakers that had their license withdrawn following multiple players' complaints.
BMR asked for that list. There is only a problem with it: the list doesn't exist since the LGA has never withdrawn a single license following players' complaints.
Betchance operated for two years after they stopped paying and the LGA received the first complaints. And in every other case the Lotteries and Gaming Authority suspended the license only after the bookmakers disappeared with the players money, not once after receiving the first complaints.
