Bet365 (C) should be downgraded to D

[JohnAnthony]

My friend signed up with them years ago just for the purpose of using their live streams, he wasn't into betting at that time. At least not online. Anyway, about 8 months after he signed up, he received SNAIL mail from those bastards, which was a PROMOTION.

Now this guy still lives with his parents, and let's say his folks weren't so happy about that. I don't think that if he was married his wife would be happy either.

In late DEC 2009 he came to me and told me has an urge to play, said he had an account with Bet365 but is afraid he'll receive any (snail) mail from them. He's not so good with English so we sat together and opened a live-chat window.

Anyway, the FIRST THING we requested was that he gets NO more snail mail. They said it won't happen again. After that, when we asked about deposits, they said they're gonna need to send a confirmation code to his address, when we asked which address? they said his home address. SNAIL MAIL!

Anyway, I ended up telling that stupid lady to CLOSE the account, and respect his privacy and NEVER send him snail mail again.

He called me today, very angry, saying that Bet365 sent him a "confirmation code" request, AGAIN.

Not only did they not close his account per his request, they also "punished" him for requesting a closure, and sent him a confirmation code for an account he no longer wishes to hold.

Don't play at Bet365.

Bet365 is actually rated C, but that's a ****ing F for me. **** Bet365.

[Pareto]

Tell your friend to grow a set of balls!

[moonbeam]

this previous A+ rated book is now rated at C?

Wow what happened?

Have they terminated their advertising deal with SBR?

This has nothing to do with a set of balls. This is about the principles of privacy.

If I don't want my wife/kids/parents to know about what I do with my money, it's only their interest but their JOB to ensure they don't, at least not through the book itself. Especially since he requested not to get snail mail no less than 3 times.

[JohnAnthony]

Have they terminated their advertising deal with SBR?

Don't think so. I've read numerous complaints about them in this section.

(let me guess what your next post is gonna be: "did SBR pay these posters?!") (yeah, I don't like pointless bashing, no matter towards who)

They haven't been rated a+ at sbr for 3 years

I don´t know exactly what you mean John,

But I know Bet365 always was a shit book supported by SBR with a A+ rating.

Nowadys maybe they don´t want to pay SBR

Sad story

[durito]

What year are you in moonbeam? 365 was first downgraded when they stopped advertising here but that was dec 2006

[moonbeam]

They haven't been rated a+ at sbr for 3 years

But as A as far as I remember

[JohnAnthony]

I don't really give a **** whether they were downgraded because they stopped advertising or stopped advertising because they got downgraded.

I'm just saying, just for this incident I would put a book on a ****ing F.

Haha, durito; I can´t say I like you, but you are a great poster (and I like this)

It's been a steady stream of downgrades since

Did it have BET365 written all over it in a huge typeface?
I've had post from bookies, but always in a discrete envelope.

[trixtrix]

if i recall correctly, bet365 used to have a pretty ridiculous monthly casino bonus back in the days of boss software, they even had one deck blackjack which offered a players adv

[Teddy_KGB]

Bet $3.65 always send their PVC/promotion stuffs in a white envelope, without any info, just the adress of the sender (without company name), and the receiver of course. Or the parents requested the son to open the letter and read it front of them?

They were an A+ bookie here, even they were on the SBR recommended list , (I never understood why, they've always been a big crap bookie), but after that bet $3.65 had to leave the american market, they disappeared from the recommended list (surely happenstance)

[Toit]

Or the parents requested the son to open the letter and read it front of them?

And then moaning about BET365.

[Dunderfisk]

Dont agree

I have always rated Bet365 as one of the best bookies. They offer great bonuses, they pay fast and I have never had any problem with them.

[durito]

Haha, durito; I can´t say I like you, but you are a great poster (and I like this)

Thanks moonbeam

Bet 365 should be a F book? Are you crazy? Just because a snail mail?
Bet 365 is one of the best books, pays quick and don't abuse on their publicity.
Is one of my favourite bookies. If they should be F, Canbet should be X for example
Bet 365 is one of the best european bookies.

If memory serves me, this is how Bet3.65 rolls.

Some book, and it may have been Bet3.65, sent stuff out of Montreal with the unique postmarks. This might raise questions in the wrong household.

[raddle_snake]

that was really sad, why there are some here saying that is a good book?

[noyb]

exactly

[Ruifgalmeida]

I like bet365, but had the same problem with them they send me promo by mail to my home, I like to keep my gambling private. ladbrokes did the same thing and a few other casinos.

[Gigi69]

yep, yobinad are speaking exactly with my words (except the thing with canbet).

one of the best european bookies. fastest payouts - never a cancelled bet or something, and to me personally never send any snail-mails.
and all payouts are free of any fees (in contrast betphoenix rated B+).
as an european player some of the ratings in my eyes are very unintelligible.

[JohnAnthony]

Just some posters on a roll I guess.

As a Mickey Mouse book bet365 is ok

You are probably getting other promotions, from all kinds of businesses.

For example, around here it is common to receive snail mail invitations to dinners where they try to sell you supermatresses, kitchen slicers, amazing slippers and similar crap.
Then you pick it up in your mailbox, or anyone who checks the mail, you see what it's about, shrug your shoulders and throw it away.

You can always behave the same with these.

All in all, I do not see the problem with telling anyone how "these are just commercials I get occasionally".

OR, do as the fellows here told you and grow a pair. I prefer the latter, but the former should work fine.

[yobinad]

I just can say that Bet 365 rated as a C book is very unfair, compared to another bookies, and i have no doubts about this.

[nenad]

a,b,c,d who cares ?

[Bet365thieves]

I think Bet365 should be D-
