    Why was BetPhoenix downgraded from B+ to B?

    Anyone know?

    The question is whether the grade change was punitive or did BP pull out of the points program because of a concern over solvency? If the latter, the grade change was justified....

    A B is decent rating for BP

    Not worthy of being rated higher than MATCHBOOK(B-)though.

    With all the complaints one can read on the forum it's surprising that they are even rated a 'B'.

    30 days for a payout?.I thought they paid the same day

    cant rate them by points program. If 1,000 punks are taking free shots at them why should they bend over?

    All I want is to be paid the same day or two if I want it from whatever little deposit I can send em

    I took a one of their fa\*\*ot ass bonuses and according to them it carries a 30 day hold.

    They never said shit when I first took the bonus except for wit the rollover was.

    I continued to pound their stupid lines and win, then go to request a payout, buy nope, gotta wait 30 days.

    btw thats the longest wait I ever heard of. The customer service rep should have mentioned it. Whatd they do give ya like a 500 bonus for a hundred buck deposit?

    30 days is way too long unless they gave you a hell of a bonus while basically freezing your account from payouts for 30 days

    BetPhoenix has never given me a problem...but I will agree that some of the "holds" are pretty rediculous with bonuses and deposits

    BP fits better in the B group as of now. BP at times has been a great book for a relatively new operation. But slips in service so far have not been countered by pushes to improve. This is the question; Is this a better book than it was 6 months ago? And are they continuing to slip or improve? The majority who would answer that question fairly....answer your question of why their rating was changed.

    Whoa Johnny, I'm kinda like frozen lookin at that last post

    If you werent the one who gave me my betpoints Id transfer ya some

    Very ballsy to deliver that review of one of the sponsors, very ballsy sir

    Thats when ppl can actually love SBR, when they can get a reasonable review (not that you were harsh just a little more reasonable than the past) of even a book thats paying the bills

    On a sad note though SBRJohn's sudden bout with honesty has cost SBR a sponsor and the bash has been moved from Costa Rica to Cleveland

    Dammit John!

    No qualms here. They deserve to be even lower.

    I've now had two bad experiences with them, and their customer service is terrible.

    I had a problem with the casino and they've ignored my e-mails for months. I eventually gave up.

    Customer service hasn't been at a B+ level, especially to those Euro ewallet guys who were delayed. We can report that all but 2 have their funds now. We'll help players share their feedback on the next round. Phoenix really has a unique offering. Hopefully they can step it up.

    SBR is far superior to the other sites. Over at Covers, any negative posts on their advertisers will be quickly deleted. The Rx is a joke too.

    I think betphoenix is a solid book. They pay .. slow but they PAY.. and also their bonuses are awesome. and the customer service in live chat is top notch imo.. no other books answers live chat as smoothly and often as this group.

    Exactly, you have to give them a lot of pressure to withdraw even relatively low sums through moneybookers.

    many so-called C books pay within a day to moneybookers.

    and BP takes a month with B rating?!
