    HRWAGER Question

    Has anyone used this book before? Any good? Problems with payouts?


    Thanks in advance!

    Very popular book here with good customer service and good reputation for payouts. I will probably get around to it eventually but there are better bonuses to be had.

    Every time I dial 777 I get no connection on the end of the line. The call does not go through. The wires must be haywire.

    What am I wrong about 777, the fact that people here like them or that they don't have good customer service?

    It's true they appear to have a band of happy supporters. They have had only a couple of minor issues posted. And both fixed from my vague memory of them.

    Posters often mention the owner 'George' as having looked after them well.

    Thanks Optional. Their Customer service seems to be excellent too. I just deposited now. I kind of wanted a heads up before I do, but I'm relieved with your info.


    Thanks again, guys.

    So I just found one "flaw". They only allow $100 max bets on ALL sports. I've just requested a higher balance. Will see how that turns out.

    Bonus books are going to limit your bets based on your balance. They have higher limits depending on what your balance is. They may upgrade you with a request.

    buffalo - I never even requested a bonus too, lol. Hopefully they can UP my limits. I'm with youwager and wagerweb and they have max. $5k and $10k bet limits for me. I hope they raise it to a K at least. If you don't mind me asking, what are your limits?

    Probably should have mentioned this is a smaller rec book for you earlier.

    Don't think you're going to see the limits you want unless you lose consistently.

    The bonus rollover is x10 if you only deposit $100 and take a 10% deposit bonus. Kind of extreme...

    I said there were better. Maybe some of these boys can tell you different. You gotta go for the gold. There is no other reason to bet there.

    I have nothing bad to say but you should know that George came from 1Vice before all that.
    I was paid promptly and booted a few years back. These books are worth having some money in but not these insane amounts like some guys like to brag about.

    George was with old 1vice owner Griffin years before any of this recent mess occurred. I've been playing with HR Wager a few years. Initial limits are going to be lower and somewhat related to your deposit size.

    Yes, if you are deemed to be a sharper player you will probably be limited to lower wager sizes. George may do it in some cases faster than other books but this is a general practice among any book with a clue.

    They are a smaller shop and not to be compared with Cris family, 5 dimes or the such but they are a nice out to have for those able to take advantage.

    They paid me low 4 figures a couple years ago. Site is pretty bland, but they pay.

    The last time I heard about a "George" looking after players, that was GoBetGo

    It's tough to be sure in such an incestuous industry but I don't think it's the same person.

    I was speculating in jest. We can rule out any link, unless this current George is from the Balkans.

    I signed up here today and only have $50 limit for betting. They don't pay out in Bitcoin, is this correct? Even if I deposit with Bitcoin? That seems really lame and having to rollover the deposit+bonus 18x with $50 limits will take a long time. Seems like a good site but not worth my time.

    How much did you deposit--$100??? Your betting limit is usually based on your initial deposit.

    Typically your limit is set at 1/2 your deposit. Send them $500 and you should be able to bet $250 per game. The owner, George, will definitely work with you.

    Small book but "hiccups" are and few between. Pay on time/every time from my experience. Even larger payouts to doorstep have taken less than a week.

    Never had an issues with them. George and Gus have been my primary point of contacts. Both are professionals and will assist you with any issues. I'm a $75-$500 bettor so my experiences speak from a smaller player. When I asked to have my limits upped, George obliged without question.
