    Anyone know anything about betus?

    I don't know when i signed up for an account for them but i got an email that says i have a $25 cash bonus. I played it on a parlay this past weekend and hit. Now i have 160. Does anyone have any experience with them or should i pull out? There appears to be no wagering requirement.

    I've been on Betus.com for years. I like em and I still have an account in good standing there today. They will pay out.

    Don't take the bonus's though. I don't. It works out for the best that way. They have very good lines compared to other books at times.

    I agree with Jibby.

    Do you know their history? They go way back to BOS (betonsports) On of the pioneers. Split into these two companies and BOS went broke.

    Stillers/Rams running back??

    The Bus has been out of the league since 2005.

    From dealing crack with his brother on the streets of Detroit to the bubble
    of campus life at Notre Dame to to 1st round draft (#10) pick in '93 by the Rams.

    He has a net worth of $14MM. So yeah, The Bus is solid and can cover any wagers.

    Solid book. I have had an account for years. Never played there much but keep some money in there if the line is better than elsewhere.

    He's on point JIBS..for some godforsaken reason Betus thought it would be a "swell" idea to make a bankrupt ex pro who got arrested for assaulting & stiffing a hooker their corporate pitchman.

    Yes there are rules on rollover of that free bet. Also limited on amount you can cash.

    It’s a ploy to get you to deposit to be able to collect all winnings from it.

    This.

    One book that I argued with one of their plays and they paid me for their error.

    Just don't take any free bets or bonuses.

    Real tricky business on casino rollovers. Once you turn the casino money into cash and it is commingled with your sports money you have to do another 40 x rollover on that said casino money. But, your sports money is now at risk. Sports play does not count for the casino rollover.

    You still need to do the rest of the casino rollover before any of your money is any good. Certainly not worth going thru that headache.

    I guess I could live with a sports bonus but would never take the casino bonus unless my sports balance was modest.

    I am guessing they will tell you there is a 5X rollover and a max of $200 on a cashout.

    i played there last year. took some sports bonuses. i ended up losing. they sent me 100% fp offer but were not resetting me when my account still had $2 in it. their min bet is $5. i had to contact customer service like 4 times to get them to reset the RO. i might re-deposit eventually.

    Playing with this outfit is no different than playing Russian roulette, you may have no difficulties getting paid then again you may.

    They were never part of Betonsports BoS

    It was NASA first then they split from NASA International to NASA little naaa.

    NASA International changed name to BoS.

    Little NASA changed name to Betus. So Betus was never part of BoS.

    I remember back around 2007-2008, I played their casino games and won almost 3K. They didn't let me cash out because of the rollover(s) which I didn't quite understand. They told me I had to bet on some sports which I did, but ended up losing it all back.

    Oh, yes. Big NASA and little NASA. Big NASA was pretty square and had that schmuck Greg Champion thinking he could drive a big tractor trailer up to the Orange Bowl with advertisements on it and sign customers up.

    BTW, you have an excellent memory! Did you go thru the Aces Gold debacle and then when BOS went bankrupt all we got was peanuts. That is when I learned that Antigua's license is worth garbage.

    I’ve always known them as the book that allowed all the John Morrison psychos the ability to buy 3 points on an NBA game for -170 so they could do their stupid fraudulent chase system (which I’ve noticed people still post shit like that in the subforums haha...just a gas). They weren’t held in high regard then but sounds like they’ve come up some in the meantime.

    Honestly in hindsight they were pretty smart to be the hub for all that chase system money. They no doubt cleaned up on that shit
