    Bookmaker has been around a long time and seems pretty reputable. I'm currently having issues with them however. I withdrew some funds a couple of weeks ago and after waiting a while....I figured something was up. Turns out they sent the check to my OLD address. I had updated my address prior to the withdrawal....but clearly something was slow moving on their part....where it just hadn't been updated in time. Frustrating....because anyone who tries to look up their information on the site knows that you cannot even see what they have listed as your current address.

    Anyways....after telling me that I had to check with Fedex....which I knew wouldn't solve anything (it didn't....they delivered the "package"....no signature required)....they are now putting me on wait, trying to do a stop payment. One of the agents said that there was a $240 stop payment fee. I'll be upset if they don't eat that, since it was an error on their end.

    Anyways....rant over. I've had better experiences with GTBets.ag. Just give me a wire and stop fu**ing around with checks. Thanks.

    Bookmaker easily and they have plenty of options. Only issue i have with them is the low limits on obscure soccer leagues but I get around that with bol who have much higher limits.

    Bookmaker limits are incredibly high on NHL which is important for me.

    I'm not going to bad mouth heritage because they offer literally every soccer game on earth live and they barely go offline on those live lines but they are just too fast to get a decent number live. It's Impossible to play there live and I'm sorry but they have bad numbers on nba and nfl pregame

    You must bet recreationally. They didn't even let me deposit.

    Yes. It is completely outrageous....especially since it was an error on their part. We'll see how it plays out. I now need to wait until next Wednesday to see how the stop payment on the check went. After that....we'll see if they try to gouge me with that $240 fee.

    Either way....the $50 fee per check is a pain. Certain books that I've used in the past have offered one free payout per month before tossing in withdrawal fees. I like that bookmaker has been a steady option for a while now....but if they screw with me over this wrong address issue....I might just close up on them. I'll be pissed if they levy that $240 fee....but it'll be even worse if they don't issue me another check. In that case I'll be forced to go to my CC company and dispute my last several deposits with them in order to recoup some of that.

    I'll go strictly with GTBets in that case. Still a $40 fee for withdrawal....but I've never had an issue with their bank wires.

    I'm open to other book suggestions as well. Always nice to have a few if one or two of the other ones are causing issues.

    You are just parroting stuff you read 10 years ago.

    Do you even play there at all? Ever played there?

    Can you point to a single person reporting this sort of limit there in the last 5 years Sam Odem?

    Why do you feel the need to post your ignorant crap like you have even a basic clue so often Sam??? You talk utter rubbish too often. Why don't you start whining about a book daring to force to to do a 1x rollover on deposit again... it's like you don't even bet and just like spreading misinformation about books for fun.

    Bet365 is a solid book but only gets 1% of NJ Market

    Great Software

    Sammy was probably an Originator of the report back then

    If you beat the closing line and take advantage of soft lines at Bet365 you'll get limited, even if your account is in the red. The only thing I used them for is when they had a better line or price than Pinnacle and I got limited.

    lakerboy, Sam Odom and xKMACKx are all telling the truth! Bet365 is 100% recreational.

    No Rocco. They are very wrong. Old info. Very old info.


    Sam was asked what the limits were. The limits are actually huge compared to even Bookmaker on many markets.

    They also stopped slamming people with stupid small overall limits like $5 many years ago.

    And even though they are "recreational", like every single mainstream regulated book in the world (DUH), they are actually slower than average to limit compared to other UK licensed books these days.

    Optional its funny half these guys are in US saying this which dont even have access and u got lakerboy saying they wouldn't let him deposit even. LOL they must of not liked his name.



    Like I've told ppl countless times on here I Bet Large on in play tennis etc on bet365 they will take all my action. Only problem is the delay is much longer because the bets get referred to a trader first.
