    never....the process is outdated and you overpay for less robust service

    if the site is down, you just have to be patient and wait.

    last time I called in a bet I got the one guy that could barely speak English. By the time it was over I wasn't sure what had just happened.

    I've got a local and have been with him for many years. I get paid or pay up in full and on time.......unlike Flipside. He does give me access to internet lines though.

    I've tried the offshore route but once Pinnacle shut off Americans it became a loser's game. I most definitely will not do business with some rasta dude who calls me 'mon' and tries to tell me that they can't send me any of my winnings because their system is temporarily down. Thieves!

    I used to call in all my plays right when it mattered most. A lot of the professional coaches and players hated getting that call...
