Some books that were supposedly solid are slow paying and it's like pulling teeth to get anything out of them. Not this group. IMO the rating(s) are are much too low. And why is hollywood a different rating?

ive always been paid by hollywood myself...i rarely use them only for props/futures etc usually only tie up the money for a period of days and never had a problem with them at all...i basically just take shots on them with bets that win a majority of the time, they dont seem to mind...they did piss me off a little with the stupid 5% bonus' they would tack on when i used neteller but i would tell them to deduct the bonus from the account and then they would process the withdrawal...

id rate hollywood a solid B based on my own personal dealings with them....

The sportsbooks are either legit or not, will pay or won't pay. Different options and limits. It's really comes down to will they pay on a timely manner and personal preferences.

Everyone has thier own grades from experience. These sportsbook family outfits are definitely not a "steer clear" group from my experiences.

After the neteller debacle, I have cut down my offshore out to only Sportbook.com and Matchbook now. I feel both are upstanding books that will pay you.

Always have gotten paid from sportsbook.com in 3 days or less. They put their lines up late but I never understood why the low rating. I would give it a A or B+ , IMO.

So do you think ratings reflect the quality of a sportsbook, or the levels of payment to the site awarding the ratings? I know which I think is the case.

For example. SIA is a Platinum book on this site, despite a long and inglorious history of stiffing winning punters. How do you explain that?

Remember, SBR is a for profit company. They have done a great job of keeping solid books on their top list, but other quality books have been sacrificed with unfair ratings. What I mean is that they need to keep some books down so their A+ books stay in the spotlight.

Thanks

The sportsbook.com rating makes no sense. I've been using them for ages... lots of bets, lots of transactions, and never a problem.

SBR also overvalues VIP, a group that offers false lines, ie. if you take the soft side too often they boot you -- totally unethical!!!

Dozer obviously has it in for sportsbook, kudos to them imo for not playing ball with him.

I don't understand why betempire is low rated.

I killed them for $3k on superbowl props and next day delivery to neteller.

They should be Netellering those three dimes to Bill Dozer. Who cares if a customer is slow-paid?
