i spoke to one of their payout managers regarding some of the things that have been said on these forums. He told me that most of the time that funds are taken away with relation to bonuses, someone opens two accounts in the bos family, they get a fifty percent bonus on each, bet against eachother, and try to collect the bonus. Well i am not a bonus whore, so this issue doesn't concern me. As far as steam players go, this manager told me that they never have just closed an account after one offense. They warn the player not to do it, and then if they continue to, they never just take the money away. They close the account and send the funds. The only time they take away funds, is funds that are directly associated with winnings made by bonus abuse.

"Most of the time..."

Ask them about the time they stole $500,000 that had nothing to do with bonuses.

What's the short version of this story? Or is the above posted it?

What I haven't seen mentioned about the bonus thing from both BOS and Mill is this :

Why would you even play both ends of a game at two different BOS books ? You don't want to win at a BOS book if playing for the bonus, you want to lose and re-up for another bonus.

I'd play the side I capped to lose at BOS, and the other side at say Mansion, and do a different game with Mill ( if I played with BOS). I'd never play both sides with BOS books, even if they say they are seperate operations.

Plenty of books will give you a good bases line over the phone if that's a reason for not using Pinny over BOS.

One might try Jamaica or 5Dimes for starters. Both should give you a high-breaking dimeline over the phone ( I think).

A complaint just posted at RX, unverified and new poster, so it could be false, but :

Millenium not paying my 62k

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am new to this forum. I have been advised to post about my situation, since Millenium advertises here.

I opened an accnt with Millenium about a month ago. I deposited about 11k and got a 50% cash bonus with a 15X roll over for total roll over of over 240k.

I won 19.5 dimes by risking 5k on Miami Heat +190 to win the series. I also won over 10k during the series by betting the games and 2nd halves. I continued to play several baseball games for an average of 5k per game and my balance went higher.

When I started asking for payouts, they informed me I was short on the roll over. I finished it and asked for a payout again. They said that I actually needed more roll over. I finished it yesterday on the all-star game by betting the AL and under, winning about 15k, taking my balance to 62k.

Instead of sending my payout today as promised, they now decide to suspend my accnt. I cannot even log in to check my balance. Fortunately, I have screen shots saved, incase they try to stiff me.

They inform me that there is an internal investigation going on. I will not be able to get paid and my accnt will remain suspended. This is absolutely ludicrous! Once I finish over 240k in roll over and my balance climbs to 62k, they conveniently suspend my accnt and launch an internal investigation. Not only that, they also contacted neteller and my neteller accnt has been shut down. Now neteller will only reconsider opening my accnt if I fax in a photo ID and bank statement, which I don't feel comfortable providing, because of the news around internet gambling. I wonder if Millenium is asking for this info via neteller for their investigation.

Anyone else here have problems with Millenium/BetOnSports?

You better start feeling comfortable faxing those documents in or you can kiss your Millenium and Neteller accounts goodbye along with the funds that are in them. It's good that you feel comfortable enough to bet 10,000 a game with a group like BoS though. Especially considering their reputation for throwing out quick locks on "bettors" who receive these absurd bonuses.

If you're a legit player and you can find it in your power to prove to Neteller that you are who you say you are then you'll probably be OK.

szk1983,

Sounds like you've made an informed decision about BOS, and I wish you the best of luck in your games. I guess everyone's needs and risk requirements are different. Some people probably are better off playing at BOS and some are better off playing at Pinnacle, and some others might be best served at yet another book. I'm glad we had the discussion, I always seem to learn something while debating these types of issues.

[Doug]

I'd reconsider the decision to play at BOS.
