I think they do use delay tactics for paying out winning customers. They have very personal and inconvenient requirements, tests, or assignments that users have to complete before being able to withdraw. A lot of the onus is on you to refresh the site or contact support if there's an issue; otherwise, you'll wait forever in purgatory.
Very expensive withdrawal fees. Customers get $50 off their withdrawal fee once per month. This withdrawal request has to be made on Friday between 9a and 1pm ET. This is a very convenient time for them to wait until 1:02pm before canceling your request for a bogus reason.
As part of the Bet Online family, I think that players are safe, always going to get paid, etc. As other players have mentioned, they aren't too shy about giving sharps a hard time, discouraging them from continuing as customers.
A couple perks to balance out my critique: Their in-running (live) lines are weak. Their system is set up to allow for a delay if the line is about to change, so you think all the tools would be in their corner to make the lines super tough. That or the common in-running bettor is terrible. Second thing, again being part of the BO family of books, they are often the first to put out lines. They sometimes circle games, but those circled game limits are high. Their limits in general are high, and like Pinny they allow you to re-bet the max after either the line has moved or 61 seconds have passed.
