      Is it true that bettor(s), who had to complete a rollover, were cut to a $1 online limit?

      And is it true that these bettor(s), when calling in their bets, were presented with ridiculous juice? (see earlier hamburger after desert story).

        I have still to complete rollover AND my online limit is zero.

        I have deposited once only and never had a winning bet.

          You're joking. At VIP?

            You never had a winning bet and you were moved to phone in only?

            Can you write us? Something there is wrong. We'd be happy to find out why and post it if you want. Assistance@Sportsbookreview.com

              Yes . I am not sure why it happened .
              I deposited a couple of years ago and didnt use them much.
              I was doing a spring clean of my books in early 2006 and requested a WD. Unfortunately I had not met my rollover. They sent an email informing me of this. I said OK and proceded to make a few bets. Got 2 or 3 futures bets on . Then went in one day to place a couple more and got a message telling me to call in. Wont take anymore online bets from me . I have to phone in daytime only and speak to Rohan (think that is how you spell it).
              Pointless task as every time I call the odds change significantly against me compared to what is posted on the web. I bet mainly futures so I am not able to take the other side.
              Fortunately (?!) my balance dwindled and now stands at slightly under $200. I cant bet it at anything like decent odds and I cant withdraw it as I havent met my rollover. The amount is less than the bonus so if I "withdraw" before meeting the rollover I get nothing.

                Raw deal for sure.

                Were you primarily scalping futures? Thats the ONLY reason that they should put a guy on call in and with their futures market spreads even that is questionable.

                Did you bet the max on some soft futures (scalping)?

                  A guy I know of used their live chat feature to place a bet. When he told them what line he wanted to bet and the amount to bet, they kicked him out without letting him place a single wager.

                  VIP might be an A book for small bettors, but if you are thinking of betting big and playing their soft lines, they are at best a C.

                    My filing system isnt what it should be and VIPs online history is one of the worst around.
                    The only bet I can find details of was $800 on Pittsburgh to win AFC North (+120).
                    There was also a soccer future (I think) $200 or $300 on the world cup.
                    Possibly one other this year.
                    You are not talking huge sums the balance wasnt that big.
