**lecubs28** · 04-30-14, 07:56 PM

they pulled the same thing on me

SHIT book

**Krashman** · 04-30-14, 08:58 PM

Exact same experience here, last week.

I'm down 3k at bookmaker. Canadian also.

And it is an account specific email, addressed to me by name and account number.

It says:

Yet they told me the same as you in live chat. Not eligible. Blah blah blah...

False advertising. Scummy book, can't be trusted.

AVOID Bookmaker.

I can't believe they don't have a system to send different groups of customers emails. That's pathetic. Who ever the manager is that thought this was a smart idea should be tossed out on his ass. They just openly pissed off thousands of customers who have proven they have deposited in the past to go after guys who have never shown interest to deposit. Brilliant

I like betdsi for a variety of reasons. I called with a question the insisted on account number passowrd, i said it's just a generic question and i haven't deposited in 6 months, they transfered me to new account rep/sales rep asking how much i wanted to deposit, i said well that wasn't the reason for my call but what are you offering,he said how much are you depositing, i said $200, he said i can give 20% freeplay for that and i replied i can get 100% all day at little shops i trust, he said if you deposit i dime i can give you 100% freeplay, i said no thanks and he replied i can give you 100% on the $200 if deposit today.

bottom line, the withdrawl page seems pretty fricken straight forward so i can't complain much. i do find the emails annoying I always get one your next be withdrawl is waiting cashin your betpoints when i have less than $5 worth.

i called back and spoke to someone else and I managed to get a 100% bonus on the $300 deposit. I guess it depends on who you talk to. I'm glad I called back. Bookmaker is ok in my book. I still don't like how the process unfolded, but it worked out in the end. I guess its no good for you guys since the offer is now expired.

**shaunovery** · 05-01-14, 04:02 AM

Think most people got the email it's for new accounts only you should always check before you deposit funds

Sounds like a reload bonus to me.

**unluckysob** · 05-01-14, 05:00 AM

no free payouts

**betting-analyst** · 05-01-14, 05:17 AM

May i ask what the attraction is to such a Bookmaker?

**relaaxx** · 05-01-14, 08:00 AM

got the same email. but i am not eligible for it. would not deposit anyways. getting the money out is worse than any other book. like transfers that cost hundreds of dollars while no other book charges anything for book to book transfers.

You get rewards for betting,payouts are delivered in a timely manner by a variety of methods and they take very large bets. I personally like the poker room too.

**frankthetank** · 05-01-14, 10:47 AM

Bait & switch. terrible.

So it works for some but not others, do they accept winning accounts? 10 cent lines or better?

yeah but didn't you see that thread where they cancelled that guy's 10k bet after the game ended and he should have won?

Whatever happened to the whole idea of "you book the bet, you pay the bet"? It seems like sportsbooks in general have too many rules and options to get out of paying a bet. Leaving lines up late, odds they "say" are bad lines, etc.

I've never read a thread about being limited or banned from bookmaker. If you bet big and win alot alot of betpoints it seems they do ban accounts from redeeming betpoints. I like how wagers are always graded within seconds after the game ends. 35 grand is the most i've ever got upto at a sportsbook, i like the idea of being able to get a wire of 50K. hell if that took a month at least you know you get all your cash in one shot or a few if you're really balling.

So in theory, you agree with their rating ! how about lines/odds , competitive? i once looked at their soccer odds but didn´t see anything for me, might be different with US sports!

This! and the amt u bet that gets u qualified as a "professional" and thus banned from Betponts has dropped to almost nothing now. I used to maintain a balance there even when they put me on delay simply due to Betpoints. Once they booted me off that it simply was not worth the hassle and the excessive fees charged for withdrawals.

**blacklady** · 05-02-14, 07:59 AM

Glad I read this. I just got stopped from Betpoints this week. I think my big bet there was like $250. I thought I did something bad. Hope they will still let me cash SBR there?!

**katstale** · 05-02-14, 08:13 AM

Sorry to hear that BL. I know for medium to small players the Betpoints are essential to the bottomline. Considering the "cozy" relationship SBR has with Cris now, I would assume you will still be able to get cash through SBR store. Wish I could get cash ANYWHERE!!

the only thing they do right is pay fast - it will cost more but they will get it to you quick. so if that is all you care about-this is the place for you.

I was just on live chat with some question about the DC method, they said all withdrawls we say 7-15 days but is usually sonner, how quick is the DC deal, do you know?

**ebelisle22** · 05-05-14, 12:16 AM

3 days

**ebelisle22** · 05-05-14, 12:17 AM

Withdrawn multiple times over k's always say 7-14 days I always get it in 3-4

The only reason a book puts you on delay is if you are betting steam. If you are betting steam, you're a skill-less cheapshot artist. Why should they reward you for trying to pick off bad lines?

I signed up for the DC option. The usual hassles when getting the card but after that it has been smooth sailing. I request a payout and its on the card the next day. No longer have to deal with checks. I recommend it
