    Bonuses and Future Pending Bets
    I am thinking of doing some future bets on my favorite NFL team. The best odds to win division, conference, and superbowl are spread accross 2 books that usually have pretty good bonuses during NFL season. Sportsbetting(betonline) and Bookmaker.

    Anyone have future bets like this and still be able to claim bonuses even though your account isn't technically 0?

    I can ask live chat, but I take answers from first line support with a grain of salt at those places. If you have experience and know 100% how it's handled I'd like to hear it. Thank you.

      You cannot. Look into using a different book for this purpose if that's your concern. You might even find better odds if you shop around.

          That’s too bad. Those two books had the best lines. Also any book i trust enough to have a futures bet 8 months out would be the same books id want to take a bonus with. I can do Fairlay but didn’t see division winner with them

              I wonder if bookmaker family would think it was gaming system to do my future bets on galaxy but still take bonuses at bookmaker.

                  Understood. I'd personally feel that way about 5Dimes, and they usually have competitive odds on division winners.

                      I don't think they would mind that.

                          I agree. I don’t think their bonus policy is intended to discourage betting on futures.

                                  that's no longer true at betonline/sportsbetting

                                  i've gotten plenty of bonuses when i had thousands in pending action... as long as the available is 0, you have no free plays to use, and no rollover to still meet, you're good!

                                      Yeah, I just looked at the rules and it looks like they've removed that condition. I would still get confirmation from chat that my account was eligible for any bonus before depositing. Other than that, carry on.

                                          oh good god no! talking to someone on chat is like banging your head against a brick wall

                                          they're at least 51% odds to give you the wrong info

                                              I'm not saying chat gives out 100% correct info. I'm saying that you're much more likely to get your bonus if you have cover from a chat transcript. A manager will likely grant you the bonus upon review if you explain that the only reason you deposited was because their customer support assured that you'd get the bonus.
