    Has anyone had their limits cut at Bookmaker group?

    I ask this question because mine have kind of been slashed. Until December 31st of 2016 i could make a max wager at either Justbet, DSI, Bookmaker or Galaxy. Then i could do it over and over again. As of the 1st of this year they have stopped me from doing that. I am only allowed 1 max wager now no matter if the line changes or not. I love these books and before 2015 had lost a lot of money to them. So now that i am winning they don't seem to like that. Has this happened to others and if so is that just how it goes? Thanks

    I've seen another poster mentioning not being able to rebet since the new year too. (or was that you as well?)

    Have not seen others talk about being limited this way before but could be a new policy. Doubtful you can do anything about it but can't hurt to email and ask if it is just you and if you will be able to again.

    What happens if you dont max bet the first time? You might find you can get more on that way.

    I'm sort of in the same boat with 5Dimes.....they beat my ass for years but now I crushed the bowl season and I'm crushing hoops too. I call today to set up my monthly free ** and they tell me I'm limited to $380???

    WTF??? I have $4400 in there....it would take me a year to get it out at $380/month! I'm not paying a $40 withdrawal fee or some shit? If I called them and said I'm sending $20,000......pretty sure they'd find a way to take it but they don't want to pay me a couple grand?

    BULLSHIT

    betdsi and galaxy recently both told me i'm not considered "recreational" anymore and cut my limits and took my betpoints too. Won't give me bonuses any longer either.

    380 is the P2P payout limit, not a betting limit. (Ask if you can use BTC if you want more).

    Thread is about betting limits at Bookmaker, not withdraw limits at 5Dimes.

    But I am guessing this is the first time you have withdrawn in a year or two if P2P limits are a surprise to you. It sucks but its the only way p2p payment processors can keep the service available at all. Limits change daily btw. But they are never a lot higher than that. If you use bitcoin you can get all your money pretty much fee free straight away.

    Exactly what has happened to me. Should we be worried that such big books are doing this? Heritage slashed my limits also.

    Have not been betting too much lately, but did notice that my first half limits were cut from 1k to 500 in NCAA Basketball. Have to go and check the rest.

    I wouldn't be worried but I just play else where now. It sucks cause both these books are solid and always offered good bonuses. See what happens next football season - maybe they'll change their minds.

    Is this happening to everyone? A lot of people? Only a few? Sharps? I have not been active at all in the last month and wondering if it will happen to me.
