me and a friend want to go in together on an account. do the books mind if 2 people have the account # and password and make plays from their own homes? its not like we are scamming or opening numerous accounts for bonus money.

i figure as long as you're not on both computers logged in at the same time, they won't know you're sharing...

I would suggest to be safe to not do that.

Why not get seperate accounts??

I share a few accounts with my Brother. Its never been an issue from the books I use. Just remember that the money will be sent to who ever has the account in their name....this why we dont share anymore.....greed.

I had an instance like this recently. An older bookmaker had never played offshore and was interested. He gave me cash & I gave him my account to play in. He was the only one playing though. It was a premier book and after talking to the main guy he didn't seem to have a problem. We then setup his own account and I took mine back.

tell the customer service upfront that 2 are using 1 account. they'll tell you if it's a problem for them or not... most books don't care to much i think...

Why would that be fraud? What are you doing illegal or even unethical? In fact, less bonus $$$ for the book to payout!

You'd be giving the book an excuse to screw you, better email first.

agree. i would never share an account for a number of reasons. the books just look for a reason not to pay.

there is no governing body for books so i would advise you to keep it simple and follow their rules to the letter and in principle if you expect to win and want to get paid.

btw, why are you looking to share an account? for bonus reasons? if you are sharing to get a larger bonus i would expect that a book could argue that you were circumventing the bonus rules by combining funds with another player and therefore freeze your account.

just in case you haven't figured it out from the other posts here....DO NOT SHARE AN ACCOUNT!!!

As long as one is not sitting on the others lap while the bet is being placed I don't think you should have a problem.

I would ask the book. Wouldn't think it would be a problem as long as you aren't calling in or logged in at the same time.
