Would you deposit at Betmania?

Ive heard bad things about Bet Jam...Try Bodog or rebate wager...

mtneer1212 · 01-03-10, 10:46 PM

I like the book, but the downtimes have been more frequent recently.

robmpink · 01-03-10, 10:54 PM

just like phoenix the site is unreliable.

dark star · 01-04-10, 12:21 AM

This is a rock solid book with great customer service & free payouts.Free half point between 5-6 eastern makes this a must have for college baskets.

griffdog · 01-04-10, 10:45 AM

Other than the down times, BetMania is a fine book. I play at BetPhoenix mostly, but I have a little money in at BM too. Great customer service, quick payouts, no complaints from that family of books besides the down times...which can actually save you sometimes if you're about to make a bad wager.

swaindexter · 01-04-10, 12:53 PM

Carefull. I have not heard any good thimgs about this book. I would relook and see what "A" sites you may to use instead.

I wish you good luck!!

thespeculator · 01-05-10, 08:20 AM

i would stick with 5dimes or greek, but now i think betmania is part of phoenix , so they are pretty solid

Jacey · 01-05-10, 08:42 AM

Been with Mania for a while. I completed a big rollover/freeplay/bonus, then withdrew 2/3rds what I put in. Customer service was in the office before 9 am EST to take my request. Two money orders appeared a few days later.

Only complaints are the down time sometimes on the site (I call in bets sometimes though) and the overnight limits.

Real good customer service, over the phone and online. Was able to fund my Phoenix account through transfer from betmania, no bonus but got the reduced juice I wanted.

Definitely recommend.

I had a great experience for a few months- but one withdrawal request and bam...act closed. I didn't even bother to try and get my account reinstated because there are so many better books out there.

av3206 · 01-05-10, 01:53 PM

i joined about a month ago and everything has been fine got my bonus and my Christmas free play also i got my first loyalty reward they grade the games pretty much a second after they are finished. not a fan of the college over unders not being put up until 2 hours before the games start. i have not taken a withdraw yet so i cant comment on that part of the experience......opps i thought you met bet Jamaica my bad....that is what i was talking about tried to delete the post but could not

robertg · 01-05-10, 03:07 PM

I'm a little flustered with the website issues, but yes i would and do play at betmania. You can't beat the bonuses combined with 107 and 108 lines. they also offer a pretty large wagering menu. Assuming all the conectivity issues are fixed, this is a top-flight book for the recreational player.

blanda · 01-05-10, 11:51 PM

Great comments -- Thanks, guys -- I'll give them a try.

won me a freeplay there, recently . bet a soccer game for tomorrow.
i like that they are open 24/7 (unlike rebatewager).
they allow $1 bets in case you are almost out of money.

they show how much rollover sill needs to be made, (updated once a week on tuesdays)
so if i had 50 bucks, and i am supposed to have 4x rollover. It will state how many bets has been made and how many remaining on rollover (i.e. $33 rollover completed / $167 rollover remaining).

NDIrish9 · 01-06-10, 01:47 AM

I enjoy playing at BetMania. They called me up, gave me a $25 freeplay, with max winnings of $150. I won over $150, told them I wanted to keep playing, and they allowed it after adjusting my account balance back down to $150. Then, paid me on the same day I requested a payout.

Good book in my opinion.

pokerpro44 · 01-06-10, 01:47 PM

i use betmania seems like a great site.

thats interesting that they show you the rollover, either I never noticed this or they didn't have it when I had promo money there

rumple · 01-07-10, 08:53 PM

Just when they started running smoothly for a day or so theyre done again!

BigDaddy · 01-08-10, 12:05 AM

betmania is a good book to play at.

raddle_snake · 01-08-10, 04:40 AM

No I am not playing in that site. how is there deposit and withdrawal method?

dark star · 01-08-10, 10:05 AM

Moneygram for me.One free pay out a month is fine.

Bigshooter · 01-19-10, 05:22 AM

I signed up with them to participate in SBR's bowl bonanza. On the day I was making my deposit & guy called and said I was given the wrong info for my Moneygram deposit. Had to go back to the grocery store & get my money back ($900) from the service counter. Took off with the cash, any book that screws up right out of the gate has no chance to get my money.

raddle_snake · 01-19-10, 05:46 AM

Just heard that its a good books, but I haven't try their deposit pocess is its really good

Question for Mania players:

Can you get a deposit bonus in addition to the 108 lines and free 1/2 point?

Jacey · 01-19-10, 01:15 PM

I did last year. I dep'd somewhere around $3000, think it was a 7 or 8 time rollover (free play had to rollover as well of course). I also got -107 lines on NFL. Only problems I had were the site being down once or twice and over night limits.

I was able to w/d $2000 after I did my rollover, had money orders in a few days, free. Also "withdrew" to BetPhoenix 4 figures twice. Very happy with them, great CS when I've called in.

blix177 · 01-19-10, 01:23 PM

So things to know about Betmania:

They are with betphoenix network books. Betmania/wagerchief/betphoenix all use the same CS. So it is possible to have a same agent with all the books.

There 100% freeplay up to $300 combined with the lower juice -108 is a great deal.
They also offer -108 on NCAAB sides which betphoenix stopped.

I spoken to a CS and they say you can do a book to book transfer from MB to betmania.

If you transfer money from wagerchief or betphoenix you will not be entitle to the bonus.

Add: They also offer
FREE 1/2 Point

Monday through Friday from 5pm ET to 6pm ET.

This is a really useful tool, considering all NBA basketball game sides push 4% of the time.
