Just to start, I´m new user of this forum; I´m spanish, and I´m betting three years, usually in europeans bookies. I discovered this site one week ago, and I see it is very good.
About Betphoenix anf 4 July bonus, I must say that they are liars;
I did register and spoke via chat with Kathy. She said to me if I depostit I will be bonus. Hours later, When I maked the deposit, Jeff, Betphoenix manager, said to me:
1) He said that I had account in Betot and Sports1., and he don´t give me the bonus. I said that I read post here when people (and RICHARD) says it is possible have accounts in this bookies and betphoenix without problems.
2) Second he said to me I won to many money ( is right) with other accounts and I can´t get the bonus. I said I can´t see this condition in bonus terms. Too, he said I can play in Betphoenix, but without the bonus.
3) To finish, he said Betphoenix back to me my deposit.
Very good site.
P.D. Sorry but I´m Improving my English, and I think I´m explain me very basic.
It´s the question. If Kathy first time I answer it (via chat) said to me Im not eligible, no problem. But if she said that I can get the bonus, and later, when I maked the deposit, Betphoenix changed opinion, using differents excuses, I don´t see it serious.
Ahh sorry I misread. If they said they would honour the bonus, then they probably should, however in the past I believe SBR have accepted putting you back in the position before you started (i.e. full refund of deposit, no fees) was acceptable. I guess the CSR didn't check your other accounts in the group when replying to the query.
"We do see the mania members play, and we attempt to minimize overt risk based on playing style and activity. Lets face it, some of you are a tad too good, and for various reasons. Kind of like Vegas not comping card counters. If you can count, god bless you for your gift, but they don't want to empower you to beat them up further. Our position is similar. You can beat us up, but no need to hand you weapons to boot. Straight up whooping is good enough here."
I hope that is an acceptable outcome. You are free to play without bonus though on -05 lines and knowing you will get paid. Let me know how you want to proceed and I will expedite your position.
