What book are you signed up for(and enjoy) that has a bad reputation

Iceman · Jun 11, 2006

do you guys have an account at a book that has a low sbr rating or has a bad reputaion and you have enjoyed nothing but good service there, just curious?

Doug · Jun 11, 2006

closest is SIA, but they seem to be going downhill lately.

Many people dont like SportsInteraction but I must say I have never had a problem there and have always been paid promptly .... another one is probably the Sportingbet family (Sportsbook.com etc...) never had a problem there but you find many people bitch about them as well.

I've been OK with Sportsbook.com, but left anyway. There has to be something to all the complaints they generate.

who is in the sportingbet family? Is sportsbetting.com? I average between $100-$300 with lots of bets on "softer" lines, would they be a good book for me (sportingbet family)

go to SBR ratings and switch search to family instead of alphabetical, it tells who is who.

I don't mind a Skybook operating different styles with RIO and IIS. 3 names is OK.

Some of these places have 15-20 books that are all pretty much the same.

That place gipped me with their infamous 'free 50' promo. Got it up over $1,000 they said I had an account years ago, complete and uttter lie, which disqaulified me from the promo. Haven't forgot about it and still have all account info and records.

Lately, beside Pinny and BetJamaica I've been playing @ BetAtlas and BetHorizon. Both have a dime line up to -190. They give you 20%-25% Bonus Play bonuses with a 4 time rollover. Neteller w/d are paid out in about 2-3 hours and you get 1 free per month. 2500 per trans., but CS says you can make up to 4 (2500) per day. CS is better than average. Your are better off calling than e-mailing. Believe they are in the C/C+ range, but no problem here for me and with all these disasters stories lately I figures I'd chime in with some good experiences...

SIA is apparently now requiring a social security # to cash out.

I don't think I could go that far.....DL is enough.

docmercer · Jun 11, 2006

I bet at sportingbet and have only had one issue. I requested a check and they sent the payment to the wrong neteller (their mistake). Took them a few days to get it straightened out and a clerk tried to tell me "we did pay you sir, just to the wrong person" (if that makes any sense)

Since then however, I've cashed out a few times (largest was $3500) and they paid within 48 hours and without incident. I actually like the book quite a bit. (Although I've seen others complain)

Maniac · Jun 11, 2006

I also like SIA - they used to have a bit of a bad rep but I had a look one day and saw they cover a lot of other motor sports (besides regular nascar) and have found the odd bit of value there.

Dont play all that regularily bu have never had any problems whatsoever :103631605

REDEYE · Jun 11, 2006

Royal hands down , never have had a problem, fast payouts, good lines, good props, free half point on Friday, and they bailed me out once before .
Great Shop IMO

Nine...but I did have my limits cut.

$200 isn't horrible, though, considering my theoretical bet size shouldn't be above that anyway.

They do pay though, which is a lot better than <i>some</i> books that are considered shit books.

Bluemyboy · Jun 12, 2006

I have played at sportsbook.com......minor problem there but got it resolved, and I have yet to have a problem at BOS. Some people complain about BETUS but I love the dog lines during football.
