    SBR Store? Nothing good for UK people?

    Got about 4500 points and was eyeing up the ipad in a few months time but 2 things:

    1.) Have to be an SBR pro
    and
    2.) Can't get anything good because live in the UK.

    That's pretty bull really.

    Don't use pinnacle or 5dimes because withdrawing to the UK is a problem so cant get the points to cash for them.

    So whats the best bet for a UK guy to get something decent for my betpoints?

    Haha Im up for it too!

    I don't even mind paying for P&P SBR - Gimme a break!

    Seen they got NHL shop vouchers and Amazon vouchers too, but only for US as well? What's up with that? Not like they need to send that sh*t.

    Becoming a pro as well looks like a pain for me too.

    GRRRRRR - Stop hating the US SBR!

    Same issue here...but SBR shop not Canada friendly.
    Would have become pro long ago otherwise.

    I don't use neteller. Its just easier with paypal or card isn't it. I might look into neteller but still doesn't change the fact there is sweet f all in the store for overseas guys.

    I'm sure they get a kick back from the books when you deposit through one of the sponsors...

    Just know what you are getting into before you go PRO, so you don't complain later. All non US PRO's can ONLY get SBR cash with their points. We are down to 4 books left offering cash

    1 5Dimes/Sportbet
    2 BetDSI
    3 Bodog
    4 JustBet
    Also remember the you MUST have joined one of these sportsbooks through an SBR link to be able to get SBR cash. So if you already have say a 5Dimes and DSI account, you will only be able to join Bodog or JustBet through an SBR link and then get the cash for points

    Finally you also have to send one of these books at least $50 before you can get SBR cash. So if you go PRO make sure you join through a SBR sponsor ($200) that has SBR cash in the store, it will save you from sending $50 to atleast that sportsbook
