    BetIslands adds mobile betting platform

    BetIslands adds mobile betting platform

    BetIslands (SBR rating B-) has rolled out a mobile betting platform. The comprehensive platform allows a full slate of wagering and is said to be compatible with all of the latest smartphones, as well as phones which can process online data. BetIslands management tells SBR that this is one of many new features that players can expect from the brand going forward. BetIslands was upgraded to B- on August 5th 2011 after consistent feedback from users on payout time, customer service and bonuses. SBR confirmed during the rating evaluation process that BetIslands is backed by established bookmakers.

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for the feedback the only way to make this platform the best for you guys is if you can tell us how to improve it.

    @Profane .. deposit options may not change at all for US residents our cash only model proves to be effective and hassle for free for clients at the time of depositing and withdrawing from their accounts without need of sending in documents etc etc.

    Moneybookers will be added for Canadian clients soon.

    Please keep in mind we will be going invite only after Superbowl.

    Thanks,

    Jon

    The mobile platform has been down for months, do you know when will it be up & working again? Other than that, I like playing at BI. What ever happened to the invite only after SB, is that still in future plans?

    Hi jon,

    Can you make your min 50 on a p2p by any chance? This would help you stay competitive with some other books and i'm sure you would get more players. thanks

    50 seems low after paying your fees for p2p and perhaps a lot of work for the book for p2p deposit.

    im just sayin thats probably why.

    TAKE A PAGE OUT OF HERITAGE THEY ASK YOU WHAT YOU WANT THEY DONT HIDE IT.

    ITS A LOW CLASS MOVE AND I DONT PLAY AT BOOKS THAT PULL THAT MICKEY MOUSE BULLSHIT

    I AM HEADING BACK TO WWW.HERITAGESPORTS.COM TOMORROW WHERE I KNOW I AM TREATED WITH RESPECT

    Hi Beantown,

    It is simple ask for the bonus at the time of the deposit and it will be given to you , if not you can just contact me and 99% of times I work something out with the player that is fair for everyone involved anybody that has dealt with me can confirm this , using the forum to insult Betislands when you do not even give us a chance and contact us for a resolution is not he best way to go.

    We may still go invite only , how this makes us losers I do not really understand.

    As far as our stability goes , we are one of the fastest paying books around and that is something nobody can deny you are calling us a scam because you did not ask for the bonus like all the other clients did and now want to insult us because we did not credit it after you already played.

    Heritage is a great sportsbook I wish you the best over there.

    Cheers!

    Jon

    i actually kind of agree jim, i was enjoying this book in the beginning with all the great customer service, but some of their better people have left leaving ass clowns behind.

    and im still really peeved about them costing me $$$ the other day by posting the wrong line on a tennis match and having no one to contact them. So now i sent my funds to 5dimes and heritage today...i think ill be happier with all the different things i can bet on and i can slam overnight lines.

    but yeah jim you def couldve just asked for the bonus like a normal human wouldve done.

    YOU ADVERTISE GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE HOW HARD WOULD HAVE IT BEEN FOR MIA TO ASK ME IF I WANT THE 15% BONUS LIKE HERITAGE DOES.JON IT LOOKS LIKE YOU TELL YOUR CLERKS DONT OFFER SHIT UNLESS SOMEBODY BEGS FOR IT IS THAT HOW YOU OPERATE.IT JUST CAME ACROSS TO ME LIKE A MICKEY MOUSE MOVE

    I DONT TRUST SPORTSBOOKS THAT ISNT UPFRONT WITH PLAYERS IF YOU ADVERTISE SOMETHING IT SHOULD BE AUTOMATICALLY DISCUSSED NOT THE PLAYER GOING BEGGING AND LOOKING LIKE A DEADBEAT

    INVITE ONLY GOOD LUCK JON

    INVITE ONLY IS A NICE WAY OF SAYING WE DONT WANT TO PAY SBR JOHN ADVERTISING MONEY ANYMORE BECAUSE WE HAVE ENOUGH CLIENTS WHERE WE DONT NEED ADVERTISING.

    AS SOON AS BET ISLANDS GOES INVITE ONLY BOYS YOU WILL DEFINITLY SEE SLOW PAYOUTS,NO BONUS,LESS CUSTOMER SERVICE BECAUSE WHO ARE YOU GOING TO COMPLAIN TO THEY WONT BE ADVERTISING HERE AT SBR ANYMORE.

    SPORTSBOOKS GO INVITE ONLY SO THEY DONT HAVE TO PAY ADVERTISING MONEY THATS THE ONLY REASON TO GO INVITE ONLY YOU WILL REALLY GET F-CKED BOYS ONCE BET ISLANDS GOES INVITE ONLY TRY AND COMPLAIN IN A FORUM IF THE BOOK DOESNT ADVERTISE THERE ITS FALLING ON DEAF EARS

    Beantown,

    If you want the 15% why do you wait after you play the deposit to contact us for it? We have clients that play with a bonus and some that do not want the rollover you cannot blame a clerk for not offering you the bonus and then using it vs the book. If you want a bonus it is not hard to ask for it.

    Thanks for the best wishes !

    If we go invite only is becuase I have said it before I am not looking for Betislands to become the biggest book around I am looking for Betislands to become the best book around , I will take quality over quantity any day.

    Is it really that hard to ask " could you add my 15% bonus " when verifying your deposit?

    I don't think you will have to worry about getting an invite when you are on here acting like an asshole... BI takes care of all players... Just because you lost your bankroll there and now your asking for free shit and not getting it after 1 deposit your acting like a prick...

    I don't know you but I am pretty damn sure I know what happened... You deposited and you turned down the bonus because you thought you were going to triple your bankroll with your picks from your buddy Brock landers- after you rolled with that idiot you lost your wad... You turned down your bonus opp because you thought you would be cashing out quick and didn't want to have to complete a roll over ... Now you lost and you're acting like a jack off and blaming Mia because you turned the bonus down... Stop acting like a fukkking prick and go hang out in the saloon with those jackasses jj gold and Brock landers...

    Jon keep up the great work......
