Betonline opinions?

Their reduced juice or higher parlay packages sound good in theory, but they rescind those offers if you beat them with any regularity.

Better options out there. What do you want to bet?

They paid SBR A LOT of money for that A rating.

2Pac I rarely agree with you b/c you're normally acting like a psycho, but in this instance I believe you're right. Truth is I've got a free 25 dollar bet on the derby if I sign up with them and although that's nothing I was thinkin if it hits could easily payout 100+ which would be kinda nice. I just hate to signup with a book that I will never use and just to get a near worthless 25 dollar freeplay. If I will absolutely never use them as an out I don't think I'll even bother, but being A rated I hate to turn down the offer as it is one of the only A rated books I haven't tried yet.

Would be dumb not to throw the free $25 on a big underdog horse. If you don't have to make a deposit to cashout, just take the freeplay and try to build it betting on big dogs.
Betonline will occasionally mail you sh1t you don't want, but they don't spam your email that often.

I guess so, hell I may toss it on a 20 to one shot in the derby and say fuk it either win 500 or lose nothing.

Betonline is one of the best books out there. Never any problem getting a payout. It run very well.

BetOnline (SBR rated A-) currently has no complaints levied against them and no processing issues to speak of at this time, which is a positive these days. The limits are $2,000 (Sides & Totals) which isn't bad at all really, however they will collar you if you start to beat them up at a pretty good clip. So needless to say they are a recreational book.

Their are a couple of things I don't like is that they charge $50 for fedex checks and they don't do book-to-book transfers. (Sucks they don't accept Moneybookers for Canadians).

They'll pay you first.

The above is enough to be put in the "B" range. How difficult is it to add Moneybookers to your deposit options?

dwaechte · 05-03-08, 03:39 PM

Meh. They seem alright IMO. Nothing special, but you can do a lot worse as well.

seaborneq · 05-03-08, 04:07 PM

withdrawals are too damn much, no freebies.

tomcowley · 05-03-08, 04:18 PM

They're fine. Just don't expect to win a ton before you get booted/limited. Withdrawal is extremely easy, no hassle even for a mid 5 figs check.

Justin7 · 05-03-08, 04:47 PM

They have some great promotions. They don't like wiseguys. I used to be alarmed about their business model, but as long as they aggressively throw out wise-guys (which they do), this place should be safe enough.

frostno98 · 05-03-08, 05:19 PM

I played with them before, and they paid out promptly. The thing I don't like about betonline, is they don't do any payouts or deposits online. They're a B+ book in my opinion, like they were when I first played their, nothing changed or improve much. It was cool when they had ACH transfer though.

MiamiBoy86 · 05-03-08, 10:08 PM

Easiest book to put on money using a credit card...i made over twice what I put in, did not limit or cap me...then proceeded to lose it all, so I can't tell you if their withdrawals are any good (35$ fee per withdrawal if i'm not mistaken)...decent bonus/ -105 bets (I choose the later) can't transfer funds to any other book...it is what it is...

The A is a little strong.
