    It has been weeks since I left my position as the GM for Betislands and after reading what the situation is right now I would like to provide clarification , since I was the one who talked up Betislands and believed in it more than anyone else did .During my time at Betislands I can sincerly say I always did my best for every single client always trying to get players paid and most of the time siding with the players. And for almost 2 years those things were accomplished.

    The financial backing pulled out unexpectedly this is a verifiable fact from SBR and anyone in the sportsbook industry in Costa Rica. I am not the banker nor the money behind Betislands I was the General Manager in several aspects of the company including Public Relations but I was not the founding $$ nor the bank ( another fact that is easily verified )and for the most part we came through with our promises solid payouts , good CS and good bonuses. When everyone was getting the good stuff we were a top book of course.

    After expressing my desire to leave for several months I left the company and retired from the post up scenario.

    I am sure this post will not change the frustration and anger that some of you feel , and of course you associate your feelings towards the forum face of the sportsbook but I felt this post on my behalf was necessary.

    I wish the best for the players and I am hoping some of the larger shops that have the financial prowlness will come in and help players out for the good of the industry in general.

    What crap. You have scammed your players and the first thing you say is how hard it is for you? Unreal.

    The "least" you can do is repay the players.

    When did the "financial backing" pull out?

    Some of you can call me a thief a fraud I was the GM for the company not the banker nor the financial decision maker. If the book at a time was performing correctly how can you blame the PR guy to speak good of the company? Which now I truly apologize for the situation that this has become.

    Like I said I am hoping this situation will raise awareness in some of the larger books and will come in to help the players out , I knew this post would bring me nothing but hostility but like I said after my posting on the forum It was the least I could do.

    As one of the managers of the company I felt you guys deserved that much.

    You were the voice of a massive fraud. You were not "just doing your job". Do you get that?
