[Goat Milk]

Don't ever trust SBR with a rating they give to a book

Do your own research

Just because Ebert says a movie was great doesn't mean it is.

Again, why anyone is surprised by BI having problems when they now take their marching orders from EZStreet scam sports is amazing. Lets look at the big picture.

- Allegations are made that BI is working out of the 7redsports and EZstreet offices. The poster claims that he is getting stiffed for monies owed and calls out Jon as a lying scumbag. Jon vehemently denies the accusations and the poster is dismissed as a disgruntled employee.
- A few short months later BI announces that they have joined with 7Redsports and rented space in the EZstreet offices. This is passed off as a coincidence.
- Jon claims that part of the deal includes paying corey1111 the casino winnings that were stolen by EZStreet. He never mentions it again.
- Everyone praises Jon for a brilliant move(?!?) that will make BI a top tier book.
- Servers start crashing and players encounter severe service interruption problems. CS reps are clueless, rude or worse yet not even available.
- Jon is on holiday and although everyone wonders why he would leave immediately after announcing a major merger in the middle of Football it's all good because Jon's a great guy. (In case you didn't know bookies don't take vacations during football season)
- Online access is wonky, up and down but getting better. CS meanwhile continues to take a nose dive and even though he posts at SBR that all is well Jon is almost immpossible to get a hold of by any method.
- Payout complaints start rolling in like crazy with all kinds of excuses from processing to hurricanes (Honest Jon?)
- Some players paid, some still waiting, a lot of uncertainty. Meanwhile CS continues to go down hill, Jon never seems to be in the office or has time to get around to solving player issues when he is.
- Payout complaints continue to pop up and no one in the BI/EZ office has a clue or the power to do anything. Only Jon can make decisions.
- Honest Jon decides it's time to go on holiday again and takes his #2 guy with him.
- No payouts will be processed this week (maybe Friday)

WAKE UP PEOPLE!

[HedgeHog]

Sbr has bet islands rated B, everything must be fine with ths book.

Don't let that be your guide, because SBR also has Betonline at B+. Regardless, BI is financially sound--I'm comfortable with my 9k balance there.

A lot of people were comfortable the day before black Friday too.

I have 2.7k and I am not comfortable even though I got payout yday..

[Mikeyanks23]

at least they are still having a xmas party

That will only take 9 weeks to pull out as long as the weather stays clear, good luck!

[CollegePro]

so I guess they are having party without 2 big men in the office..

[Dark Horse]

Guys. Relax. The most important thing is that this is not a book that takes big bets. So most of the accounts are going to be three or four figures. That would make it very difficult to bankrupt a book.

If indeed there is strain on the book, and you have money in the book, you don't want to increase the strain by some sort of ill advised panic thread. This is like screaming 'Fire!' in a movie theater. Even if someone was merely lighting up a cigarette people my crush each other to death running for the exit. People become their own worst enemy without even realizing it. Stop acting like sheeple. Take a deep breath. If you had a choice between waiting a month for your money or losing your money, which would you chose?

SBR ratings are not what they once were, but they are based on one thing: financial security. So ultimately this is about SBR having done its research.

[CollegePro]

payout is cancelled today..

according to CSR, they have lots of customers with 5 figures... over 50k

[Dark Horse]

With their limits? I don't think so.

[allabout the $$$]

this is why im glad locals exist

i have a few offshore accounts would never put more than a dime in any of them

i wish i can find local around where i live..

[Dark Horse]

Didn't they just purchase a book? I haven't followed the story closely. If so, does that sound like a book without funds?

[allabout the $$$]

i wish i can find local around where i live..

go to a sports bar a few weekends in a row a if you are smart you will know who to talk to and get the right connections

[Trident]

More like took over a book that was on the brink of going bust, I doubt it cost them much at all.

Whatever the price, it probably wasn't free. The point is that a book seeking to expand is not on the verge of going broke.

So you have the book's recent investment, the SBR rating reflecting financial security, and a poster starting a panic thread. Take your pick.

Well broken down. Im happy I moved on a few weeks ago as I am newer to the forum but when I started reading others similar poster's experiences and doing some research, it became clear. All not right. I remember when I was in college and needed a good excuse why I could not pay this week....the hurricane, yeah thats right the hurricane 6 weeks ago in another country.

[pokernut9999]

My local comes by every Tuesday around lunch time , nice to not have to go thru hoops to get paid.

He has been getting hammered all year , but never fails to show up and pay.

that is the only thing represented in an sbr rating?


given a choice between book A (let's just say another b rated book like betguardian or youwager) and betislands, all other things being equal, gun to your head which book would you make a $2000 deposit into at this point?

[allabout the $$$]

youwager

[Brock Landers]

Where is Jon to answer to these charges?

[JasonDC]

Where is Jon to answer to these charges?

Some others have reported they were told that Jon has went on vacation.

[tarheelfan72]

Although I genuinely believe the customer service at BI can be troublesome at times, I also believe that this thread has turned into a bunch of broke ass small timers freaking out because they didn't get their $500 cashout on the same day.

Even though BI has pissed me off in the past sending my payout late and shorting me $200 without telling me before I got the payout information, this is getting kind of absurd. It's like, every time someone does not get a payout the same day, a new thread starts about how they are going to shut down any minute. One of the threads linked to in this thread was doing this same thing a year ago.

One post says they can't pay because the squares all won, the next one says they can't pay because the sharps were on NE. It's a bunch of idle speculation from a lot of people looking to get back at them for poor customer service in the form of late payouts (which aren't even late by most book standards), short payouts, and rude clueless operators. I will say again it is unfathomably stupid of them not to take down the same day payout promise, or at least qualify it somehow until everything is straightened out, so BI did contribute a lot to this mass hysteria, even though I don't see too much basis in reality for it.

I agree that people are predicting the demise of betislands a bit prematurely, but the CS has been so bad..i still cant believe Jon would up and disappear on vacation during this whole thing..and apparently some have been told Ryan is out all week dealing with a personal emergency..they are giving ammo to the people who want to bad mouth them and predict their demise..they could handle this so much better than they have been.

I would compare this more to a stock market scenario. Rumors send stocks up or down all the time. The question becomes evaluating the rumor versus the strength of the company. There is an advantage to buying a stock after a fear-based price drop, but there is no advantage here by depositing when the sheeple are bleating their ears off. If I were to make a deposit I would wait for things to calm down.

We know that the BI clientele is comprised largely of a 'gimme, gimme, gimme' crowd, so that would weigh into my evaluation of the flipped mood.

Why the fukk doesn't an SBR Mod chime in?

There is no doubt about that. None whatsoever. The fuggin' Taliban has better PR skills than BetIslands.
