Last day for 50% Neteller bonus

Guest · Jul 26, 2004

Gents,

I figured, if I did not post this, I could get in trouble with all of you. Today, Monday the 26th, will be our last day offering the 50% bonus for Neteller. It will still be valid for E-checks, however.

www.sportbet.com
www.islandcasino.com

or call 800-430-5896 for more details.

If you missed your chance with this special, keep your eyes peeled, because you will see it again in the coming months.

Yikes man! 50% bonuses scare more people off than they attract. If I thought I could trust Sportbet I'd do it.

Dante · Jul 26, 2004

D2... It is high but it comes with a huge 7X rollover and a one time only deal....im not going to do it but how many will rollove 7x fees,bonus and deposit

PLUS jake already posted he will kick Bonus Whores ASSES instantly if they are sniffed out

And it also has a limit of $500, so the most you can get out of it is $250

jake, three days ago i sent you 500.00 by neteller and my balance still shows 500.00 do i bet the deposit for the roll over before the bonus is credited or do i have to call and bitch or what ? do you have your act together or should i just withdraw my money?

The website now says E-check. No mention of Neteller. I am not going to open a new account, deposit by Neteller, and then have to beg for a bonus.

Please confirm, that it is Neteller and what steps are needed to get this bonus

No offense to Jake, but the books know exactly what kind of "customers" take these offers.

I really do not understand the motivation behind recruiting undesiralbe punters.

GAMEFACE · Jul 26, 2004

Lander,

So you maxed out on the offer.

TommyMullins · Jul 26, 2004

JAKE ARE YOU DESPERATE FOR BUSINESS?

RDC · Jul 26, 2004

If they are trying to weed out bonus whores then why even offer such a promotion?? Thats what your asking for isnt it? I suppose if the player wants to pull out his money when his rollover is met then the bonus is relinquished because he must be a bonus whore.

Pick up the phone and call. The bonus is credited when you make the deposit, but you do have to contact them.

I can't really answer that.....I suppose it isn't programmed in their software to automatically add the bonus. Anyways, a quick call will solve it or use their live chat feature. Easily resolved.

SportSavant · Jul 26, 2004

just email them... lots of books require call or email to get the bonus...

WHY U ASK?

cauz some people do not want to collect the bonus as they do not want to be restriceted by the rollover/bonus requirments... If you do not take the bonus u can withdraw anytime....

MAKE SENSE?

redwine · Jul 26, 2004

i am confused is this some kind of internet scam i just want to bet my 25.00 per game and get my best yalue for the football season.

Yup....you've been scammed. Your bank accounts are now empty, and we have taken your dog hostage. He will cost you another $500.

No confusion necessary. Call 1-866-924-3772 and tell them you just made your first deposit and wish to get the 50% bonus. Simple.

SportSavant · Jul 26, 2004

thats what happens folks.... when you drink too much 'red wine'... you dont think things through & decide to spend your time bitching on a forum about a non-issue when the issue could have been resolved with a simple email.

DarrylParsons · Jul 27, 2004

IMO the reason books do not credit bonuses automatically is that they are hoping some customers don't notice it or don't bother with it. No doubt out of a few hundred customers there will be a few that fall into this category.

Another reason could be that they want to manually check each request for eligibility because they are too lazy to build the rules into the software.

The maybe-the-customer-doesn't-want-it argument doesn't fly because he can forfeit the bonus with an early withdrawal even if it is showing on his account.

Nothing wrong with bitching about a 50% bonus IMO. In today's offshore environment that is a VERY big red flag.

Punctuation marks were invented for a reason -- they will not be offended if you elect to use them.

All I'm saying is - if you want 28 Sick Gamblers to signup, hedge the bonus, and leave then this is a great offer.

If you want a quality punter like D2, then you've chased him off.
