How Solid is BET365 ?

You'll be fine getting paid, unless you're American, in which case I don't think you could play there.

They will limit your sports bets quickly if you win.

You ll have your money.Payments are fast.

You don't have to worry about getting paid from Bet365. They are a solid company, with betting shops in the UK.

I've read MANY posts about Bet365 limiting wagers, I have not been affected personally by this. I've made a losing $2500 wager (my biggest bet with Bet365) and more than a few 1K wagers that won, I'm not limited or restricted in any way. These wagers were on NHL & NBA in the winter.

They are called bet $3.65 for a reason! Win one big bet, have limits slashed to nothing. Garbage book.

Crappy for live betting as well, but they pay promptly. Thats all that really counts IMO

Were they (bet365) not a sponsor here before. Did they stop paying ?

No, it's NOT all that matters Dan. What good is a book that collars you to $25 per game? Luckily (well unluckily in regards to Pinnacle...LOL), I'm in US, but I would not recommend them to anybody from a country that they accept.

they were a sponsor here yes, but my stance has been firm on this particular subject even when they were a sponsor here.

They were a sponsor. I think they did not renew after the gaming bill was passed. We were having a hard time with them with their in-betting product. Otherwise this was one of my favorites. Service was great and their money was good.

Personally, like any book that collars, I recommend people play with them and extract what they can before they limit you. No point in giving up the money you could have made there.

Now that I agree with Santo. However, I personally don't want to go through all the hoops you have to jump through is all. I guess thats the reason I never bothered playing at SIA ever.

I haven't been limited there (yet) and I'm hoping I can get the summer in before I'm done. But I know by the end of 3 months I"ll be down to $25 a wager.

BTW don't chase steam or they will limit you win or lose.

bet $3.65 is better than most, but still not a very good book...

The don´t limit if you win, they limit if you win playng sharp.

Yea, they do have great service. 24 hours u can call them, email response is fast. Live chat on their website is very good. But if u dont listen very carefully when u talk to them for a run down of the lines...U'll be saying "WHAT!?>@#? more times than u wish and by that time the game has already started! Guess my English sucks

But to answer the original question > "I do not foresee any problems getting paid here, Do I ?" Hell no!

Theres a way around that. And that's called playing stupidly for a short while and donating a little back. Good poker players must do that when they have the chip lead, so SB is no different! What's funny though is when the stupid bets come thru and now they start thinking you're REAL sharp...lets investigate this guy now
