No live betting at BOL anymore?

I think best thing about betonline is mobile software
by far best out of any usa book

Most usa books do not offer it mobile

There was a live choice on the mobile until it appeared as the big red button on the full site, and it worked fine.

Calling CS about this was once again a laugh-fest.
Guy tells me it's there (I am able to explain to him it's not), puts me on hold, comes back and tells me mobile doesn't work with apple devices (which it does, been using it over a year on my 4gen itouch), then tells me they're 'working on it'.
Lol.

If anyone ever wants a laugh, (albeit a sad one), call their CS number 888-426-3661, and ask them to explain how something works on the site, where you already know the answer.

Post actual result, if they got it close to right I'll send you 2 points, if not you send me them. Honor system.

Actually any IOS 6 issues would effect apps, not necessarily websites, mobile or not.

Coach, stick to shit you know.

I like the new live betting but they need to get it back on the mobile platform

**wrongturn** · 10-08-12, 09:20 AM

Their living betting format is now same as Bookmaker. I tried this weekend, it is a good improvement from previous format for both books.

I wonder why BetOnline only transfers with Bookmaker. Do they have same backing or what?

This quirk happened with BOL earlier on, and took them a while to fix it.
After you place a live wager, goto your pending wagers, and it lists it there. but missing the actual points, total or ML that the wager placed at.
I can see a HUGE headache coming from this one.

Best to take a screen shot before hitting confirm. Not perfect but the best you can do with BOL.

Won my first 2 bets with them

Great book

**jjgold** · 10-09-12, 05:18 AM

As far as American Books we do not have a ton of options
Betonline way better than any newer type book

Pretty decent free play bonus too.

Only gripe is that they have pretty limited teaser options... But I don't play those often so it's not a big deal to me.

Have they fixed their issues with slow-pay on payouts? On the site it says you can get a Person2Person payout within 12-36 hours...?

Great mobile site. Very easy to use on the iPhone

**jjgold** · 10-09-12, 11:24 AM

What do you mean limited teaser options??

I thought they had more than most books

I'm used to 5dimes where they have all the teaser/pleaser options in the world

BetOnline only has the option for 6, 6.5, 7, and 7.5 pt teasers. The only pleaser option they have is -6. Also, no ability to select between ties win, ties reduce, or ties lose. I called and asked and their teasers are ties reduce by default

5dimes also has progressive and Multi-chance teasers that BetOnline doesn't have

**jjgold** · 10-09-12, 03:23 PM

they have 7, 7.5, 10 and 21 point teasers

**PAYTON20** · 10-09-12, 04:16 PM

I'm on it right now and the options are 6,6.5,7,7.5 and -6 pleaser

Also they won't let me play a teaser or parlay for Preseason NBA. Straight bets only

Not that I want to bet Preseason NBA, but just sayin...

**jjgold** · 10-09-12, 04:17 PM

I see 10 and 21 point teasers

I see it

Football

**jjgold** · 10-09-12, 04:30 PM

I see it on chrome

Betting slip on right

**PAYTON20** · 10-09-12, 04:39 PM

**jjgold** · 10-09-12, 06:21 PM

**PAYTON20** · 10-09-12, 11:11 PM

If you click on my wagers when you're in the live betting section the wager will show what you actually bet on with the line listed
