A new class action lawsuit alleges MyBookie ignored opt-out requests from consumers who received text messages from the sports betting company.
Plaintiff Cody Connolly claims MyBookie sent the text messages to promote its online sports betting platform, mybookie.ag, and continued to send them even after consumers opted out.
Connolly argues MyBookie’s alleged actions violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), which prohibits companies from sending unsolicited text messages without obtaining prior express consent from the recipient.
“The TCPA affords special protection for people who request to be placed on a company’s internal do not call list,” the MyBookie class action states. “Specifically, the TCPA provides that each person who receives more than one call on their cell phone after requesting to be placed on the company’s internal do not call list is entitled to recover a penalty of $500 per call, and up to $1,500 per call if the TCPA is willfully or knowingly violated,” it added.
MyBookie sent plaintiff 10 text messages after he opted out, class action alleges
Connolly claims he received at least 10 marketing text messages from MyBookie after he opted out of receiving them by replying “STOP” to a text message he received from the company on Sept. 7, 2023.
“Defendant entirely ignored Plaintiff’s request; it never stopped bombarding Plaintiff with texts as recently as March and June 2025,” the MyBookie class action states.
Connolly wants to represent a nationwide class of consumers who received two or more text messages from MyBookie within a 12-month period after they had already opted out.
He demands a jury trial and requests declaratory and injunctive relief and an award of statutory and punitive damages for himself and all class members.

One thought on MyBookie class action alleges sports betting company ignored text message opt-out requests
I’ve been with my bookie for 4 to 5 years and then I stopped and they did the same thing to me tons of text messages and emails after I opted out of the text messages. Got at least 10 to 15 of them after I stopped using my bookie and opted out of text message notifications. Let me know how I can join or who do I contact, thank you SW
