Smartphones vs a desktop computer?

Do your fingers ever slip on a smartphone and you goof up... Odds of this happening on a PC are MUCH lower.

Laughable...I'm not even in the same book, forget the same page as the 2 above.. I know you mean well. Go get em!

well u said stationary and since they are mobile phones ur disregarding some advantage from the start. but why would u compare them I dont think the average person chooses between the two when they are seeking online access basically everyone has both or at least a mobile phone.

Let me TRY to be clear. I can't logon to my account at Wm Hill on my computer. After many tries, I got a chat rep that asked me if I'd tried with their "APP"? I said I don't have a smartphone. Long story short, he is going to tell his supervisors.... Whew, we went through all his standard ideas about what's wrong.

I came to the conclusion it's THE NO APP.. Been there for a few weeks no problems. If they only want APP SIMPLY SAY SO!

I'm not talking about moving around from place to place in your home or outside of it. I'm talking about both being stationary. (apples to apples) I know smartphone users feel superior to non users, but will the states that have legalized online betting, side with the book over a computer user????

I walk the mall and I, personally would be embarrassed holding a phone to my ear talking while someone is simply trying to navigate the walk of the mall.

Do you love big phone companies, do you feel safer with a smartphone "APP" over a desktop with a firewall and other safety features??

Interesting question actually. I am told over and over that the phone is safe for online banking. I only use my desktop. Even the teller in the bank say’s she does all her banking on her cell.. Also said a secure WiFi is ok to use for banking. Like at home and password protected..

About 12years ago, there was a “ hackers convention” in town.One of the guys was playing blackjack and said the phones are not safe. Said he could hack it... I’m sure today’s phones are much more secure, but it scares the heck out of me to use the phone..

Here's a little secret that I only discovered about 3 years ago when I finally got a smartphone: I can use the "REAL ADVANTAGE" of my exclusive APPS to get lots of sex. It's amazing.

I doubt I'm the only one, but most won't talk about it.

Folks, please stop and think. The phone companies, ABSOLUTELY, POSITEVELY NO DOUBT LOVE THE IDEA OF AN APP! The folks with computers only that don't have one are being cornered for no reason unless kick back from the phone companies. It's a no brainer. I don't want something for nothing (I E. a bonus that I have to figure out how it works without reading fine lines) They KNOW a phone user likely doesn't bother!!!

ahh ok I think I had something like that happen a couple times basically though it was something with a script or cookies or something. can u log into account using another computer?. I once got a message about password breach after logging into heritage on phone but its prob something much simpler going on for u

LongBall52 · 03-31-21, 04:25 PM

Maybe sex is more imp to those here than betting... I need to feel stupid at surprise.

right now I literally cant log on to my heritage account via computer I noticed this last week so I looked for a chat on page didnt see one, went to google typed in heritage chat no dice. I could have just called but didnt wanna deal with it at the time after reading this thread I logged in via phone and thats the message I mentioned above about the password data breach, so online its not working or the saved password is different. I imported/exported passwords last week from a different browser, not sure if thats got anything to do with it, but again that prob isnt the problem ur having. how do u know u arnt mistyping your member id or password, also u can always change your password since u have an email address associated with it

Sir-Mam
You're not understanding my problem... There is NO LOGIN button (it's greyed out) All the best. No phone number that's responsive. I'm happy to have 2 places.
Never forget these are all big businesses. They figure once the State has allowed them inside, "have fun". In a few days I'll be reporting them .

jtoler · 03-31-21, 05:46 PM

oh ok I never saw the part about login being greyed out. have u tried a different browser if that doesn’t work then it sounds like a problem everyone would have on laptop for that specific book
