    GTBets

    I am a former member of vipsports(over a decade), never had any problems with VIPSports. Recently I have been receving emails ffrom GTBets. Looking at the reveiws and grading by SBR (C), I am cautious. Any comments will be appreciated.

    they have NOT paid all players....i was at vip for 13 years, and keep in mind that gtbets has NOTHING to do with VIP.com....they want u to think that but all gtbets is a few low level managersfrom vip that started up a new ploace when vip closed..they paid for vips client list, and hired vip site designer to make it look identical...they called and tried to scam me at the begining, then i asked the real questions and found out they are just preying on old VIP players hoping u will think they just changed the name....stay away...too many great books to play at this junk yard

    We spoke with GT Bets management again today. They've assured us that all VIP players with balances who did not take steps to claim them have been contacted. We'll be making another update report on the situation in a few days but in the meantime players with feedback are encouraged to write to help@sportsbookreview.com.

    i was not speaking of past vip players, i was paid...im talking about the frauds known as gtbets...who prey on opld vip players wanting them to "think" gtbets is just a new name for VIP...it is not...gtbets have had troubling paying players since day 1...my roomate has been stalled and delayed on all 5 withdrawls he has requested..he has revieved 3 of the 5(mid-3 figures) with the other 2 withdrawls of low-4 figures withdrawls going on 6 weeks without paymenmt....even on p2p withdrawls he recieved took over 30 days...gtbets is a joke

    just becuase they have paid out a few checks doesnt mean gtbets is a safe book to play at...
    hell even SBR mod bbd was warning players as of just 2 weeks ago not to send gtbets any funds...and he is right...why would any1 send a start-up with no tie to vip.com any money??? gl whoever does

    Hey 50% cash bonus is worth the risk and if u don't know how to use it to your advantage then i don't know what to tell u, i know exactly how to make these bonuses work for me. But i am in no way sticking up for a book that i have yet to try, im just saying there is no way for you to lose in the long run. Honestly i could care less if there the old vip or not, i dont care if there bookmaker as long as they pay when i request is what i care about.
