Hi, have anyone hear anything bad about Betus.com? Is it a LEGIT site? will they really pay up when you win or do a payout?? any stories?? thanks

[Willie Bee]

Welcome to SBR and it depends on your definition of legit. Here are a couple of links for you to get some info on them.

SBR Rating Guide
Some threads about BetUs

[Mudcat]

Your second link doesn't go anywhere for me Willie.

Will BetUS pay out? Maybe/maybe not. Sometimes they do. Sometimes not. They may treat you fairly. They may cheat you.

Playing at BetUS adds a whole new dimension to the word, gambling.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum

BetUS (SBR Rated C-) has had a very shaky history in regards to confiscations, slow pays, canceled wagers, ect, ect. If you do indeed play there just make sure you don't run your balance up too high, because you most likely will need SBR's assistance due to the fact that they don't like paying big winners or small ones even if they win it fair and square. Like Mudcat mentioned above, It's totally hit or miss at this establishment.

My only complaint to this point is the insane fees on the withdraws. They need offer a free payout a month or something because it adds up quickly. I know there are a lot of others complaints too. I have not experienced these problems. But I would definately take them into consideration before joining. If you join watch out on the rollover on the bonus you take if you take a bonus and how many days you have to keep your money in before withdrawing.

[powertowin88]

I spoke to one of the guys on BET.com This is what he said:

Frank Ext. 2714: We've been in business for over 15 years and remain one of the most trusted sportsbooks in the industry. Our lines are featered on ESPN.com, AOL, Yahoo Sports and MSNBC, just to name a few. If they can trust us, then you certainly can as well.


SHOULD WE TRUST BETUS????? ANY STORIES PEOPLE??

[DevilDog]

Here is my take on BetUS. I have been with them for a few years. I have ALWAYS gotten my money from them, but I do not do it with confidence. Their withdrawal fees are ridculous. If you go to customer service and try to get a clarification on things you will most likely get a round around.

And by the way, when I say I have always gotten my money from them I am talking about amounts usually $1000 or less. I would NOT have large amounts in this book.

It is unfortunate that they operate the way they do because they have an excellent site and offer some good bonuses. I would trust them if you keep your account with them under $3000 or $4000.

And by the way, what do you think THEY are going to say? Do you think one of their account managers is going to come out and say they are a pain in the ass to get withdrawals from. That the right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing. That they charge ridiculous withdrawal fees. Of course not.

Wor, your posts make it seem like they are selling you hard. Part of you wants to sign up, but you are looking for reassurance that they are legit.

With all of the sportsbooks in the world, why would you want to sign up with one that lies and has a well known record of stiffing players?

There are several well known documented stiff jobs by BetUS. Do a search. They have NOT been in business 15 years, that is a lie. They have been open 9 years at best, yet they choose to lie.

As far as those sites with their lines, they will take any site that pays them. It means absolutely nothing. They pay to be there to give themselves a false image of credibility when they sell people like yourself.

Like I said when I started, you seem like you are looking for any positive comment to rationalize signing up with this crooked operation.

[powertowin88]

what is a well known betting sites that is safe than??? any suggestions people?? thanks

[GeNioS]

I highly recommend staying away from Betus.com. Every payout costs $50. Are you kidding? They aren't advertising that on the way in, that's for sure...because if they did NO ONE would sign up.

They won't even put the original amount I charged back on my card.....

So let's get this straight. I'm reading a bunch of comments about not having a lot of money with them....but.....at a $1000 payout $50 is 5%....the only way to get that percentage lower is to play more money and ask for more out....which doesn't seem reliable....

It's ridiculous and I'm done with these guys...period.

[looneytunes]

Maybe I'm missing something but the SBR review page still shows them at;

A BetUS (SBR rating D+)

[Ced's shadow]

Sadly Looney, BetUS is one of those books who are able to hold some reputation for their old timers, that's the reason why I wouldn't recommend anyone starting in the Sportsbook industry to go give them a try unless they feel adventurous. Yes, they are "well established", no, they have not evolved into anything good for the players.

[DISTROYA]

Ive never had payout issues and I scalped the hell out of them for a couple years until they showed me the door, but still paid all money in account. Be careful if you scalp though.

[Triumph]

Why has no one mentioned that five of their top cs agents split to work for Balzing bets.com, Taylor and Dallas ect. They all swore that Betus was a chop shop and that's why they all leftthey all said the were tired of ripping off clients at betus.
