    This has nothing to do with SBR let alone Bet Islands. There was no way of recouping the money from BI as CR books are unregulated. There was also no ASIC to assist. Because of where I live, I'd be offering the same help to these guys even without the Moderator title under my avatar. If you have issues with SBR/BI please take them to the appropriate thread.

    No, I think you actually are. As I'm 10 minutes away from their office whereas the majority of their clients are across the world and there is actually legal recourse to be taken, I'd be helping even if I didn't work for SBR. There was zero I could do to assist BI people and I knew little about the book. There is no way of legally trying to recover funds from BI nor any government body who claims to regulate it. Canbet has been around for close to 20 years and is licensed in what was roundly considered to be the safest place for gamblers in the world. Not comparable.

    bet islands was rated higher than canbet ever was on sbr....the moral of the story is don't bet offshore....
    the commission is turning a blind eye like sbr did to those who lost money in betislands....I think bill dozer should tell those who lost funds at canbet that it was their own fault like he did to those who were robbed at betislands. I like you think canbet should payout just very disgusted with the inconsistency with the people who run this site.....ill be moving on to a more professional forum...one who looks out for the players and not their own pockets.

    There's a world of difference.
    I'm not sticking up for SBR but if you send money to a CR book you really have to take far more blame if you get scammed than if you send it to a book in a regulated jurisdiction such as the UK or Australia.
    As Shari has pointed out there is no legal recourse available in CR as there is in the UK and Australia. A whole world of difference.

    I'll recap again for the new folks once more but if I was Shari and the rest of the team I'd consider taking these and putting them in their own topic.

    BI was a B- book when the forum voted it top 5 in the poster poll. That was also the poll we decided to combine DSI and Bookmaker votes otherwise BI would have landed higher. BI wasn't thrilled with that. SBR is not a nanny forum... We offer tools and you can make your own choices and add content on the site for others. BI never made it above B despite two poster poll top fives...meaning 4 tiers of higher rated books by SBR's own opinion. It was said they were too new to be higher. BI mgt would be frustrated and say you tell players to avoid books under B+ so you are telling them not to play with us...

    Books earn their feedback by impressing new customers and treating them well. New books get them by doing contest prizes and banner impressions. Obviously we wish we never let them have a presence in the forum and it was very much a mistake that they were.

    SBR posters are to blame for BI disaster not SBR

    Approx 10 were paid to promote the book from Betisland and boost up the ratings

    Blame those 10 not SBR

    no1 is getting $ back so why even still post about this?

    its a waste of time and space and getting posters nowhere

    and if people hate SBR so much, why do they keep posting here daily?

    good grief MOVE ON already and pick ur sportsbook better next time..

    and dont depend on any1 to choose it for u, or try blame them (SBR) when the ship sinks..

    it doesn't work that way and any intellegent adult knows that

    I once cashed out 3500 from BI. When the f.edex envelope arrived I opened it expecting a check to fall out, but instead 7 W.U and M.G handwritten money orders fell out. I died laughing

    Good book. Paid me promptly

    And Bostonboss, if you hate this forum so much why is it you're always on here? I'm sure you could easily go find another forum that had nothing to do with BI

    In other words, STFU!

    Please Do not leave BB i enjoy our conversations. Here is a picture to make you stay. It is of a guy in the Surma Tribe with a plate in his mouth. Probably to put Burgers and Fries from BK on.

    SBR has been responsible in my opinion - when you send your money to an offshore book from the US you are taking a risk. you have no legal recourse no matter what happens- if anything happens to that money it is your fault for taking the risk. no matter what the reason is that you picked one sportsbook over another. is it fair -of course not. but what is always fair - nothing and no one. JON suckered everyone including SBR. people put their money in mostly because of the raves from posters who were being treated to all kinds of perks for small problems coming up. you complain then you get back way more than deserved. which would be posted. everyone loved the generosity shown by JON . everyone was hustled - but not by SBR, not by posters, by BI. all the blame falls there. JON and BI. may they rot in hell.
