      I am pretty sure everyone and their mother has used sportsbook.com at one point.

      To summarize those threads: You have mixed reaction with the majority recommending NOT to play with them and advocating other sportsbooks that have a B or higher rating.

      The consensus is that sportsbook.com does pay (most of the time) but their are frequent issues/disputes with customer service, deceptive advertising, and to many reports of slow pay....moreover the lines have never been impressive for me since you can usually get the favorite or underdog at a better price somewhere else.

      Personally, 9 out of 10 people here will recommend Pinnacle but I also like betjamica a lot too...but it depends largely on what sports you want to bet as you will get different opinions but ask away as a lot of good guys in here.

        I havent. Not sure about my mother though.

        But I would recommend the A rated books to anyone and leave these low rated books to sink. No use to risk it with the grade A books out there.

            there was a thread about a week ago that listed a bunch of books and free withdrawals...maybe one of the mods can bring it up...i forget the title.

            I would recommend Bodog, Canbet, and Sportsinteraction all have free neteller withdrawals.

                  I was gonna post but if you want my opinion just reread BudyBears 1st post.

                  I will say this, they have a decent selection in Tennis, Motors, Golf basically the summer sports. If you found a sweet bet there I wouldnt let the D+ bother you. They can be a hassle but it might be worth it if there is something there you fancy.

                      Try using the new e-check option from Pinnacle.

                        My friend last year open up with them and had a bad experience as he claims. He said he won some money and when it was time to collect, they gave him the runaround about something was wrong with the bank depoit and gave him the run around.

                          Sportsbook.com is great until you have a problem. No matter how small the problem it will take weeks and a lot of aggravation to resolve.

                          If you are looking for free withdrawlas you can try bet365, canbet, heritage, VIP, bodog...

                            Why do I keep seeing posts touting Bet365's free withdrawals? They have ONE free per month, just like Pinnacle, 5Dimes and many other books which offer far better value than the two-bit cowardly hacks at Bet365. If you like $20 max bets, 15% house edges, need odds on the Welsh Kite-Flying Championships, and/or have a fetish for dim-witted London accents, Bet365 is the book for you.

                                That would be his best bet.
