Anyone hear of payoffs plus sportsbook?

Looks like they have slightly better odds on some parlays and teaser combos. BUT I have never heard one word about them from anywhere, so I am assuming they are not safe.

Anyone posted up with these guys before?

Never play with books you have never hear of. To many good books out there. Why would you take the risk. This seems VERY silly.

Not planning on posting there myself...just wondering if they are legit or not.

I don't see any real reason to take a chance with them, but to each his own...

They are legit. Always paid quickly (same day WU) . But it's true, they'd keep calling you to post up, even at work!!

That's probably right. I made the mistake of postin up with FF about 5 years ago (my first offshore). Luckily I have changed my phone number, because they were always calling me. But they have managed to keep following my address changes and I get mail from them constantly. That's probably how the payoffs plus brochure came my way.

Knowing that, I wouldn't post up with them...

when i went to deposit some more $ with them, in response to a bonus promotion, i was told i did not qualify for the bonus, since only customers with net losses qualify !!! as others have commented, i get unsolicited phone calls offering me bonuses for my redeposit, but then am told sorry never mind !!

another oddity is that i get a lot of mailer with sports schedules in them, which are always well expired before i receive them.

on the good side, they have processed my withdrawals!
