Thanks, BBD...it must be my problem, as I still can't get the site to load - and that was my question...

Michael - they might be a really bad book for a myriad of other reasons, but I can assure that they aren't a stiff book (at the current moment)...I've been paid a couple of times over the last couple of months with no problems...

Doesnt work like that. Stiff books will pay sometimes, wont pay others. The only time you really know they are stiff is when your loot doesnt arrive ... and then its too late.

Best to stay away from rubbish books like this.

BetEmpire is a book that had problems in the past but they are making a little comeback. We have them rated at D+ and they have had a couple of upgrades this year. Still obviously risky but the upgrades indicate we are not receiving many complaints from their players. Hopefully they can keep improving.

Is this book affiliated with BETUS??..

The site was registered to BetUs until a few months ago. Both sides said BetUs ownership was an investor and later said Empire bought back their share.
