Shady bet cancellation by betjamaica

**Chuck Sims** · 07-31-09, 11:30 AM

Bet Jamaica has done this crap before. This was not an error line. But you should of bet the 1st 5 innings on what the new line was and then make a complaint to get the difference if the bet won. I do not know what you expect from BJ now.

**Justin7** · 07-31-09, 11:32 AM

That doesn't sound like a bad line...

**CollegePro** · 07-31-09, 11:33 AM

you should still try to contact Scotty @ betjam. he is usually really quick and good @ taking care of stuffs for his customers even though I am having hard time myself to get in touch with him lately. GL

**CollegePro** · 07-31-09, 11:34 AM

I don't know about you but I think betjam should honor his bet. I mean we can't sit in front of computer all day hitting refresh to see if bet is going to get cancel or not due to bad line. And like he said, it was only difference of 9 cents.

sad considering SBR rates them at A+ grade...maybe that should change

**themajormt** · 07-31-09, 01:04 PM

Why is everyone so quick to ask for ratings drop on books? The thing that separates SBR from other places is that they dont just drop books at the drop of a dime and also dont move them up because they paid one player. The bigger picture needs to be taken into consideration before people are so quick to jump the gun and demand drops. BETJM has been one of the best books I have ever played it next to Heritage and Bookmaker, dropping them because they might have misposted a line is hardly justified...

I'll reiterate what CollegePro stated.....Contact Scotty if at all possible. There's a lot of shady characters in this profession obviously, but he is definitely at the other end of the spectrum. I imagine if you can presnt your situation to him, it will be resolved fairly quickly.

**JerseyShop101** · 07-31-09, 04:40 PM

Perfect example is right now

Betjam:

COL -138
CIN +128

5imes:
COL -162
CIN +152

5dimes is in line with all the other books, Betjam is still hanging the lower price.
Play COL and risk it being a bad line?

**JerseyShop101** · 07-31-09, 04:44 PM

Nevermind, they changed it.

**thagame24** · 07-31-09, 05:56 PM

jersey the sbrlines feed for betjm wasnt working today until about 40 min ago which you probably noticed thats what happened there......but here's a perfect example of their opinionated lines they have the COL@CIN game at -167/+157 right this moment while Pinny has -160/+152. I guess they are free to cancel any decent sized wagers that come in on cincy now? Thanks for the support and advice guys, I tried contacting Scotty today and will continue to do so until I speak with him directly.

**BigDaddy** · 07-31-09, 06:00 PM

no way was that a bad line.

call them and talk to scotty or herman and i'm sure you will get credit

Thagame24 & Gentlemen,

This error was just brought to my attention. This obvious error of a jr. line monitor here at BetJM occurred a couple of days ago when they opened that event at -191 or -181 which ever.

In the case of any line error they are to immediately notify a Manager whom will handle it properly. This was not done nor was it handled properly. I am responsible for the staff and except full blame for the blatant decision error.

Errors and excuses are just that and I agree 100% any baseball line off 5% can’t be considered a bad line under any circumstances. This should have never been cancelled period.

Please accept my personal apology for the error and keep my direct office number and email if anyone ever has any problems at anytime.

We do pride ourselves on being a fair and honest service so this crow is now mine to eat.

Sincerely
Scotty

Well I'd like to thank Scotty for going above and beyond my expectations to help make things right. It's also nice to know I can deal directly with the big dog if I have any issues very few businesses are run that way these days unfortunately. I was considering moving funds out of betjm but now will continue to play there

Scotty J!!!!!

You work for BetJam and actually post on here? Sweet!

Did you pop the 500 back into his account when you canceled the action?

Yes-Then who cares. No-ok then there is a problem.

But Scotty, Does Betjam actually pay winners? What if they/I have a PO Box?

Do you take ****?

Interested customer here. Don't worry I lose most of my bets and I really suck at sports gambling.

**GELATINOUS CUBE** · 08-09-09, 11:05 PM

Ask collegepro. I suck at basketball betting especially. Oh, and I suck at basketball in general nowadays!
