Late on Monday night, August 27, the Bodog website became unavailable to players and visitors. After many hours of technical difficulties, the site released a statement admitting to the technical issue. “This is a result of a legal dispute over the ownership of the newnewbodog.com domain name,” the statement read. “We are fighting this dispute. We are confident that we will win, but until all is settled, I do not want our battle to interrupt your play. So, I present you with Newnewnewbodog.com. You won’t notice very many changes: same website, same brand, same product, and same service. Just a new domain name.” The statement ended with an apology for the disruption of service.

In a later updated statement on the website, the same basic information was reiterated with another apology from Calvin Ayre, Founder of Bodog.

Customers experiencing problems are assured that the normal course of business will resume very soon, but customer service representatives are available to help at 1-888-263-1000 or service@newnewnewbodog.com.
