    heritage sports sucks!!! just closed my account!

    Last time I made a deposit into my heritage account was back in August of this year. I never received holloween scratch card so I didn't really expect anything from them. But when I contact then to inquire about scratch card, rep said he will make sure I get something better on future pomotion. Surely enough, I received email stating I can expect something for xmas. When the time came, nothing in my account since I didn't place 200 bets. I think they should have mentioned it in the email stating you have to have minimum 200 bets to qualify for xmas bonus or something. Well, my bday came so i decided to see if they will be nice enough to give me some fp... nope... nothing.... ZERO.... ever since I got transferred from betjam, I never requested payout from them and made deposit of at least 5 to 6k.... and got nothing from them... fukc this book... I think EZ and betislands is 100X better.

    Dude you're embarrassing yourself. You've got to give them some roll-over before they can give you some honey. That's just common sense. It sounds like you're making a deposit and then betting large percentages of it at one time. Well, you may have lost those deposits--but from a mathematical point of view you might have won them so you're not that valuable of a customer yet.

    Start betting smaller and you'll enjoy yourself more and start getting those retention incentives Heritage gives out.

    No I think he closed it.


    For the record Emily, I agree with you about them and I've stated it in several (a % of what you've done)
    threads.

    I've just let it go and hope you do too.

    This is about the best thing a player can do with a Heritage account.

    They have done just about everything possible to insure that the player loses by:

    1] posting late lines
    2] dealing unfair odds (i.e. Team A -XX -135)
    3] removing -108 pricing on some totals
    4] moving lines 1 second after any move on Pinnacle
    5] limiting players to 100 max bets on sports they have shown a certain acumen in
    6] putting delays on your account so they can adjust odds to go against you
    7] kicking players out after winning less than 5000
    8] closing accounts on players that max bet too many props and futures

    I don't know anyone would play here when 5dimes and bookmaker are so much better.

    As long as they pay out at the odds they list on the site, what is 'unfair' about it?

    because other books let you bet at .5 points worse with -110 juice while Heritage rakes you for the extra .25

    No, he closed his account because he was dissatisfied with Heritage. He actually had enough sense to leave a Book he didn't like instead of starting a dozen threads about it. You could learn from him.

    I didn't start the thread either, and was just stating my opinion too. BTW, I play at a dozen Books, so I'm not a contest whore. Show me yours and I'll show you mine.

    I'm just saying because I rarely see you post any where else other than these threads about the books.

    So you are saying if CRIS has Team A -110 / Team B -110, Heritage might have Team A -135 / Team B +115?

    Usually it's on halftimes

    Cris will have a 2h total like

    Oklahoma over 72 -110
    Cincinnati under 72 -110

    Heritage will have

    Oklahoma over 71.5 -135
    Cincinnati under 71.5 +115

    Your argument doesn't make much sense. The % margin is lower at -135/+115 than -110/-110 (104% vs 105%), and if the -135 is such bad value surely you'd get rich betting the +115?

    Usually the only people betting 2nd half are sharps and the side they want is the -135 side. They just hang these numbers because they really don't want any action.

    I'm going to assume, since you are betting half time totals in college basketball, you have some clue what a half point is worth in various situations so what difference does this make and how is it "unfair" as long as they stay on the same 20 cent line set?

    I seen both bookmaker and pinnacle both do the same in half time markets (although bookmaker doesn't USUALLY go as far from -110/-110 as pinnacle, who also increases their juice the further they move away from -100)... If you make bets in these derivatives markets (since others outside of CB are even more pronounced) how is it you aren't aware that this isn't unique?

    My guess (since you choose to cite an example using Bookmaker rather then Pinnacle) is you did and real interest is just carrying on your jihad against Heritage...

    another example is UNLV played a early game last week I forget who they played. The greek had it -4, but Heritage has UNLV -3.5 -135 or -145 for the first half, its bull that they can have these lines like that and expect people not to talk about it in a forum and if you do they close your account. Happen to me and it will happen to other people to. there a sh*t book that has terrible lines

    1/2 point not worth .25 on a CBB 1H total

    Wasn't really the point but kindof ironic considering one of your other "flaws" was they didn't offer unique numbers ("moving lines 1 second after any move on Pinnacle")... Guess you just expect the opinionated side to always match the one you want to bet?

    when US was still welcome at Pinnacle, i noticed way more juice manipulation on half time lines than i ever have a heritage. "the pinnacle lean"
    To each his own, I personally rank heritage very high in customer service, and prompt payouts, and vastly improved in betting options available.

    absolutely to each their own but as far as I'm concerned from the moment my account was transfered to them I realized that place is a joke. They're nothing like the greek and they're doing nothing other than pissing off a lot of the greeks loyal customers. I would rate them an A for funds being secure and a D- for a sportsbook.

    daym... I forgot about this thread.. lolz. anyways, to make things clear, I request them to close my account and they were very rude about it. So I really don't care about them anymore. I understand what you guys are saying about how I shoud not close my account @ good company but there are still good number of companies who still cater american players who still pays. I know heritage offer lots of good contest but I rarely play contest anyways....

    are Emily and CollegePro getting married soon? must be from the same neighborhood.


    anyways, serious question. what if you 'don't' close your account. what is going to happen? someone is going to deposit for you into your account and lose or make money for you? and make withdrawals in your name?

    at all you rec players that think your going to beat them

    Here is a classic example how Heritage is going to fuk you.......

    Pinny takes one bet on Tenn St. over and Heritage moves it a full point while no other book moves it all. Now we know the rec players don't have multiple accounts and if they have just Heritage as their only out and like this particular game over they are forced to bet at bad odds. This happens 1000's of times during the day. Since Heritage kicked out all the good players they never have to worry about getting beat to numbers. There is NO WAY a rec player will win at this book!!!
