My bookie.ag. How are they??

**unusialsusp5** · 08-18-16, 09:19 PM

cater to recreational players only. so as long as you don't win you can play there. lots of deposit options but no mention of withdrawal procedures. seems to be associated with sportsbook.com who doesn't have a lot of interest in rushing to pay people. like most.

**TheGuesser** · 08-18-16, 10:18 PM

They are crooks. They are the re-incarnation of betonsports.com, the outfit that stole many, many millions from players back in 2006. They had the statement below in their FAQ when they first opened. They removed it, but they can't hide who and what they are. Until they pay back the millions they stole in 2006, they should be avoided like the plague.

This was in their FAQ.
We are a new sports book site, but our owner group and management team ran BetOnSports, one of the most widely recognized sports books in the world, for a number of years.

I was customer at bookie.ag for about 3 months last fall and was booted after I cashed out around $5500. it took about 2 months to get fully paid.

**Buffalo Nickle** · 08-19-16, 09:20 AM

They aren't associated with Sportsbook.com. I have an account there for an election bet. They have very good customer service. Don't have any payout problems and seem to be a solid C book. Have not taken a withdrawal yet.

It is a small-time bonus book so it pays to be cautious but probably worth doing it if they make it worth it to you.

They practice a lot of risk management so not real likely to go under.

**UBNVS** · 08-19-16, 10:08 AM

They kept calling me so I finally answered. The guy was painting me a pretty picture. I wanted to be cautious and ask here first. The way it sounds I will not be signing up and just keep the few books I play at now

i know, that has to be the most hilarious post ever. when he tries to engineer a withdrawal wonder if he will downgrade it to a solid F book.

**Buffalo Nickle** · 08-19-16, 01:25 PM

Well, I did a little research. Was afraid to deposit at 1Vice. Thought MyBookie seemed worth a shot. You want to talk about laughs, I would have got them last year by you boys.

Will provide a report in November if the bet wins. Am anxious to see how it goes. Not too worried.

**Optional** · 08-20-16, 06:29 AM

Been around long enough now to be worth a try if they offer something you want I think.

Here's what they said about the BOS connection http://www.sportsbookreview.com/sbr-...ookie-c-58575/

**seanrachel13** · 08-20-16, 07:48 AM

You have not had any payout problems yet? You have not requested a withdrawal yet off course you have had no problems! Can't make this shit up, solid C book just what you need.

**ParlayKing1986** · 08-20-16, 08:53 AM

Why even consider playing at a sketchy book when there are reputable books who actually pay...that bonus aint worth it bro. Lol

No problems reported by SBR or elsewhere. D-U-M Dumb!

Yeah, I can use a solid C book.

Management will not confirm officially the source of its financial backing but has confirmed the presence of senior BetOnSports staff among other long-time industry personnel.

They very likely used, and are using stolen funds from BOS Family players as their seed money. I wonder how SBR would rate a new book run by Jon Kretta using stolen player funds from Bet Islands, or Jay Cohen using stolen player funds from WSEX, or Charlie Therwanger using Stolen player funds from Aces Gold, etc., etc. The fact that these guys openly admitted about being the re-incarnation of BOS, and nothing was done to help players who were stiffed by BOS, and they get a C rating is a disgrace, rather than a solid F until they try and pay back the millions they stole, both for them, and for what SBR has become.

They were started by MANAGEMENT from that book. Not the ownership. They were not too bright to use that as a calling card but otherwise these guys have made all the right moves and are very clever in their strategy. You don't see MyBookie hawking itself on this forum and they have done everything the hard way.

I take that to mean that the management at BetOnSports started their own book which makes them the "owner group.' Doesn't mean the ownership of BetOnSports is the ownership of MyBookie. A group of people that were involved in management previously decided to start their own book.

In any case, SBR started this book in the Ds. It has moved them up due to a clean record.

That report states "MyBookie's rating will largely be based on reports from players and may move more rapidly than a sports betting site operated out of a country such as the United Kingdom where more regulatory framework is in place to safeguard players' funds."

The trouble is that whilst a shiny UKGC licence might look to have some clout, when it comes down to the nitty gritty, there is very little protection of players' funds and UKGC always wash their hands of it and say it's nothing to do with them. It just shows how poorly regulated this industry is when the "gold standard of gambling licences" actually offers very little protection to your funds whatsoever.

I pretty much agree. UK regulation means very little as far as player protection and it feels like the newest laws are used to stonewall players more than help them too often.

I suspect American sports bettors would be wishing for the 'good old days' of offshore unregulated sportsbooks if they suddenly only had access to books regulated in the UK style. Not just for the player rules but for the extra costs those books have to cover probably changing their approach to 'risk management' as well.

**michael777** · 08-30-16, 08:45 PM

Mybookie told me today that max payout is $1,000 a week!

what a joke,no excuses accepted

**UBNVS** · 08-30-16, 08:56 PM

That is horse sheet!

**ICE-BLOOD** · 08-31-16, 08:18 PM

They did that when they were BetonSports.com also. They even advertised on Howard Stern.

**king7811** · 09-01-16, 07:29 AM

Is it a bookmaker?

**mets119218** · 09-01-16, 04:42 PM

They played a lot of radio commercials around west palm all last football season and I just heard my first one today again for them

**ezeemunee** · 09-03-16, 12:57 PM

I got a direct mailer with 100% sign up bonus. Called the number on the mailer and NO ANSWER. Very sketchy and seems like there's no LIVECHAT either. Mid-day Saturday with College Football in full swing and no one answers the phone...very odd. I have my doubts about this outfit.

**RustyKuntz** · 09-03-16, 06:06 PM

I received the direct mail piece offering a 100% bonus and figured I give them a shot. Made a bitcoin deposit and two hours later the money still isn't in the account. They told me it takes between 20 minutes and 24 hours. Hilarious. Would definitely put this place on the no fly zone.

**Buffalo Nickle** · 09-05-16, 02:08 PM

They got me for the 100% bonus too. Only 5x rollover. These guys are the best deal going for small deposits. They will even pay your credit card prcessing fees back.

They have the same deposit system as BetOnline and Heritage. They have the best customer service of any book.

The only negative is they have withdrawal fees so you have to factor that in.

This is a smart book. I don't think they are going bust.

**Bang** · 09-05-16, 02:32 PM

Definitely same owner as BOS

I remember that shit. And it was a big setback for online gambling when they stiffed everyone

I got an offer in the mail and was wondering how they got my name and who they were...at least now I know how they got my name

**Buffalo Nickle** · 09-06-16, 12:38 PM

I am now logged into MyBookie for the first time in over a year. They have a very snazzy new site which is very fast. It is a bit like Intertops.

They apparently do offer a free payout every four months so that is a plus.

They also have a bonus program that seems a lot like GTBets. This book is actually very similar to GTBets in their approach.

I am liking this place a lot so far.

Information is valuable. Do with it what you will.

**TheSharppie** · 09-06-16, 01:06 PM

Don't have payout problems, but you haven't taken a withdrawal?

**Buffalo Nickle** · 09-06-16, 01:13 PM

Squarerry,

I do wish you boys could pay attention. What I would give for SBR posters to have 1 IQ point.

When you yell FIRE, SBR posters run INTO the fire. It is only natural that a book that seems to be as well run as MyBookie would have them running in the other direction.

This place is shocking. It is the best site out there. Makes TopBet look like the Flintstones. You 1Vice boys were on an amoeba site compared to this.

You see this site and the deposit process and compare it to 1Vice last year and it is a trip back to the 1500s.

It may have a snazzy site and an easy deposit process, but that means absolutely nothing unless they payout quickly and consistently, so what you say has no weight until you've actually requested a withdrawal and seen how that goes.

Many sites will treat you like royalty whilst you're depositing and playing, but will change to treating you the exact opposite when you ask for a withdrawal. There's simply no need to be playing at these amateur books when you have top USA facing books that offer everything you could ever need out of sports betting, and most importantly what they offer is the undoubted security of your funds.
