    Heads up about BOL bitcoin boost

    They are now applying a 10x rollover to this tiny 5% bonus. Used to be 3x, then became 5x recently..... Now a whopping 10x. Their bonus program continues to go downhill. Just a heads up for those who assume it's still 5x.

    Agree 100%. 10x RO for 5% Cash bonus is insane. Pass!!!

    Didn't it start out at 1x? Whatever it was at the beginning, it was really sweet.

    I think you're right. Now it's just an insult. You can stack it with other bonuses but other than that why would you ever commit to a 10x roll for 5%.

    This change has an icky feel to it because it's right before football season when they know they'll see more deposits. So they sneak this change in hoping people don't notice but lock them in with a larger roll.

    True, if you take the 100% bonus BOL and Sportsbetting are currently offering at 14 RO, the 5% boost is basically a free add on (no additional rollover). At least that's what it has been up to this point.

    for what it's worth my $1000 deposit with a 50% bonus and the 5% boost has a rollover of around $16k

    It must be 10x on just the bonus itself? Which wouldn't be a big deal.

    Meaning on $1,000 deposit the 10x on the $50 boost only adds $500 in rollover.

    Thats crazy, that would be a $10,000 rollover on a $1000 deposit for a measly $50? The TD2021 on now gives 100% freeplay for $1000 with 14X. Might as well decline the bitcoin boost. T@C not clear as it says "the boosted deposit amount" subject to 10X.

    The "boosted deposit amount" on that page has always referred to deposit+boost.

    Yeah, it used to be 1x. Insane change they've made in the course of a few months. Not even worth taking now.

    Just deposited today $1,000 with 100% bonus and 5% boost. Rollover is $20,500. 10x Rollover on $1,000 Deposit + Bonus ($20,000) and 10x Rollover on the $50 BOOST amount only. Total $20,500.

    So it's 10x rollover on just the boost amount. Which is perfectly fine.

    If you didn't have the 100% bonus it would have been 10,500 rollover (1000+50 * 10). It's definitely not just the bonus amount, it's deposit plus bonus which is nuts. However it's still worth using when stacking a worthwhile bonus like you did.

    I just made a fresh deposit with only a 5% bitcoin boost, and my rollover is $0. If I remember correctly, when I accepted the bitcoin boost several times a long time ago, they had not yet incorporated the bitcoin boost rollover into the site's rollover counter - they left it up to the payouts team to make sure you weren't withdrawing prematurely. I don't know if they ever fixed that. Either way, I just don't know what to make of my evidence combined with yours. Your rollover is higher than it should have been if you only had the 100% 10X rollover.

    You are right, it doesn't show up on the rollover counter...but if you try to make a payout before you've rolled the deposit+bonus 10 times you will get a message about needing to meet the rollover.

    It is definitely 10x the full deposit+bonus with the bitcoin boost. Always has been applied to the D+B and support confirmed this after the change to 10x.

    Okay, so it hasn't changed. Then how do we explain @Crusherrr's rollover amount? Maybe the price of BTC increased slightly as his deposit was going through, so his deposit and his rollover are slightly higher than he expected?

    You only have to do 10X RO on their 100% bonus offer? It's 14X for the same offer I took.

    Do you know exactly date when started with 10x rollover? I made deposit on 28/08, not sure if still have 5x or already 10x? Or maybe they converted all busted deposits to 10x even if it was 5x at the time of deposit???

    No it added it to the rollover calculator right away. I was credited like $1,053.15 or something but price wasnt during a volatile period when I deposited.

    The 10x rollover was for a special twitter promo they ran for one day. It was a 100% 10x bonus.

    That makes sense. In your case, your rollover is (1053.15 dep + 1000 FP) x 10 = $20531.50. My recent bonus had a 14x RO. My deposit was $1058.40 so my rollover is exactly $28,817.60: (1058.40 dep + 1000FP) x 14. Notice that we are doing a little extra RO, because only $1050 should be multiplied by our RO number. The extra amount is so small that I wouldn't normally bring it up, except to warn others not to deposit much more than the amount required for the bonus--unless you want to do a lot of extra rollover.

    For example, say you want to load your BOL account up for FB. You have 5k you want to send and you see a 100% FP offer (max $1000). DO NOT send the full 5k and claim the bonus as the extra amount will get figured into your RO, producing an astronomical figure. Instead deposit 1k for the bonus, and then later deposit the remaining 4k for no bonus.
