Many people have the option so it’s probably on the users and then their hardware/vpns /browser and type of computer
Looks like bookmaker clean here
At the moment we don’t see anything wrong

Because you don't know what you're talking about, especially since you don't even bet.
I installed that desktop recording device. I am sure within a week I'll have the video proof.

If it is not the device, not the browser, not the connection, only on big bets and not on small bets.
You only want the bet at the price or you do not want it!
Whether it is latency or human intervention the number you want is not really there!
All you can do is cash in and walk away - play someplace else.

I've noticed a lot of books are starting to use betslips that go straight through. BOL was using it on the new site but the site did not work. Haven't been back to it since if it does work now.

The fact that you have to change the settings in order to avoid getting the worst of the line is ridiculous; every book's default setting should be to require verification if the line changes either way, which will obviously never be in your favor. I'm not a computer guy but that can't be difficult to do; no book should even be rated an A- unless they employ that feature.

It is not worth fighting with them about. They just do not care - they only want your business if they can sell it to you at a bad price.
Talking to them about this issue is like pissing in the wind.
You have mentioned the juice they have screwed you out of.
You would be better off paying a few % points more but getting the exact price every time
This is nothing more than a bait and switch. Lure the bettor in with a juicy price which they will not let go through. It is dirty to just offer -105 juice but then stick them with -115.
If it happens once in a while - we’ll tolerate it. Maybe, the hardest thing to do is to realize -102 isn’t really there sometimes.
Remember, how Pinny used to jerkoff the books copying their lines? They would put a line out and clones moved on air. You and I tried to bet the buyback at Pinny - line changed and the number was not really there. Go pound the clones quick before they caught in-then the buyback at Pinny stuck and they got what they wanted. Air moving clones got screwed and gave away value.

I’m looking forward to the video evidence. People just don’t seem to get what we are talking about.

Joe - I agree you are right but it is costing you time and money to get somebody to stop doing it.
They would only care if you are a losing player. If you consistently win this is how they fight back.
Bean counters! You could call them right now and ask them what your lifetime figure is. They would have the number in 10 seconds.
They have an email promotion - you call about it- oh that is not for you due to your lifetime figure

So I’ve seen this happen a bunch and I’m pretty sure it’s a tech issue. The only thing intentional IMO, is the fact they haven’t fixed it.
2 problems that’s I’ve seen.
1) Line changing a microsecond before you click submit and you are stuck betting at a different (usually worse if you’re sharp) price.
2) Line changing after (or before but not updating in betslip) you submit and bet being accepted at the new price.
I absolutely hate it, but I accept it as the cost of doing business. Really hope they fix it.

If you put in the risk amount instead of the win amount, what you risk will always be the same just the win amount will be different on a price change. Worst mistake you can make is putting in the win amount cuz then you are at the mercy of a price change radically affecting your balance. I'd rather win less than potentially risk a lot more.

I am broke but dick is working exceptionally and I am being honest about them scamming. They created a ticket for a bet AFTER the game was over saying my halftime bet shouldn't of been cancelled. I hit submit on a 2nd half wager and it got rejected. The bet was not processed. After game is over they say their system mistakenly cancelled the bet and it was graded as a loss. So the money for bet that never went through was in my account until AFTER the game completed and they made a ticket with no description except for amount that they took! I got proof you prick but it's such a small amount I know you'll just throw insults but it's the principle of them taking money on a nonexistent bet. Bet was rejected, you don't get to wait until after game to say Oh our apologies sir but system error bet is now good after game is complete. Keep sending them money Stake. Sure they are living the good life off of your hard earned money
