As you may have noticed, the forum was offline for a period. We identified a security incident to Sportsbook Review Forum and took the site offline as a containment step while we investigated.
We wanted to make sure the system and site were restored and secured before bringing things back online and you will see that we are requiring all forum users to reset their password as a precautionary step.
If you have any questions, our moderators are around and happy to help where they can.
Is it considered safe now as a post up player to deposit funds at betonline?
when does their rating go up again?

i don't want billy d to reassure me my money by guaranteeing it.. i just want his opinion. the kid knows everything that goes on with every book. he knows what the owners ate for breakfast, if they had sex last night.. etc..
when he gives you his ok about a book, you know you're ok..

I can say one thing, there aren't too many people walking around with that type of cash on them. On the other hand, that was not smart of these guys to make that type of transaction, it was obviously a trap. More books to come?

I requested a check and wire on or around October 20th. I received the check. The wire is taking much longer. In my account it says October 22nd "paid." I was told 10 business days at the maximum amount of time. I began to ask CS about it even before 10 business days were up and they continued to say it was processed and to wait 10 business days. After 10 business days they have begun to say its 10 business days not from when I requested or when it said "paid" but from the date they told me it was processed, which they are saying was around October 28th. Its now been 15 business days. I have requested a wire number which is standard if you send a wire. When I send them a wire I can immediately provide a wire confirmation number. They refused to provide me with a wire confirmation number. I am waiting.

Relax. Things take as long as they take. Maybe the IRS took it for illegal activities. Betonline would have their doors shuttered pretty fast if they were not making payouts.
I hear most places only allow one withdrawal a week, sounds like you have 2 transactions. So the hold up could be your own doing.

Never did trust them. Posted several times about this in the past.
It doesn't really effect anything here but the Fafone family lives in my hometown. I've never personally met them but they have an unbelievably generous reputation.

Nicky...Bill Dozer cannot assure you safety.
SBR ratings are good, but not every book is rated correct. BetOnline was rated wrong all the time.

i am hoping that A rating is right.. i don't know if it really should be an A, but billy D seems to love them.. but i am happy this thread was pulled up again because i lost my whole balance there again, for the 2nd time in a row and i would love to do a nice re up, but i am waiting for Billy D to give me the green light, but he doesn't seem to want to answer in this thread.
i am happy that this guy here said he hasnt received a wire in 1 month.. i was about to send them $$ yesterday.after hearing this, i will now wait for Billy D..
Where is billy D?

NewGuyInTown-
If you want someone at SBR to look into why the wire is taking so long, PM me your account number or submit a complaint form to us, and we will look into it.
Still waiting- this entire week I've got the runaround about my case being escalated to the Payout Dept. to track it. I was on live chat 3-4 different days this week. Its been a full 30 days since I requested my wire. They will not give me the wire confrimation code or any proof it was even sent. One clerk told me to track it from my bank despite the fact that I have no code.
I'll try again Monday.

As it turns out I was paid fairly quickly by Betonline. It was a wire and it went to a different account from the one I had thought. It was sitting in my bank the whole time earning interest. The whole thing took a week of real time.
