Lottery Dismisses Suspension of Tennessee Action 24/7

Tennessee Action 24/7, the state’s only local sportsbook app, no longer faces suspension over alleged debit card fraud by some of its customers. A lottery official said the company’s internal controls now meet state requirements, according to the Associated Press.

Tennessee Lottery General Counsel Alonda McCutcheon wrote that the temporary suspension is “null and void” as is the investigation which began in March. Action 24/7 sued over the suspension, saying it took steps against future problems and wasn’t permitted to speak at a lottery meeting on the suspension.

Tina Hodges, president of Tennessee Action 24/7, said the organization is “pleased that this matter is coming to a close” and that the company will work to “maintain an environment of compliance and integrity for the Tennessee sports wagering community.”
