    Good Review on BETUS.com
    Been playing with them for a bit and never had any issues with them, mainly because I never withdrew my account

    However, just withdrew the max check of $3,000 a month ago...everything went swimmingly.

    All my bank asked for was a contact number to confirm the check.

    They put it on a 6 day hold, after 6 days, everything was good.

    I just withdrew another 3k and 1,500 check and dont forsee any issues.

    So, BETUS...no complaints, not a bad book. Awesome customer service, and website is user friendly.

      I am concerned about the bank asking for a contact number
      to confirm the check.....

      If they call BETUS...isnt the bank gonna know its a offshore
      gambling location and therefore they would not cash the check ?

              Sure are picky, just trying to give a good review. Take it as you want.

              Offshore/Non US is same thing in my eyes. I'll continue to enjoy my withdrawals.

              I live in wisconsin by the way. Anyways, the point of topic was simple. Using a bank off US soil is fine, so them calling that bank is FINE, they don't call BETUS. No offshore gambling sites use their own banking system considering most of the transactions are American based. Everything goes through a third party.

              P.S. I didn't know I had to post 200 times to comment on here...

                    I understand you being in BetUS' office in Costa Rica thinking if CR is considered off-shore, then Canada would also be considered off-shore.

                      Yea I agree the rollovers are annoying...as when I first joined a year ago they gave me like a 500 bonus, and when I asked questions about payouts it kind of baffled me and made me suspicious, but once it came to getting a payout Ive yet to had a problem. If I do, you can bet I will be on here letting everyone know.

                      However, as we all do, we like to jump sportsbooks, and betus has a hook to keep you with them by doing that rollover clause. Its slimy maybe, but business wise smart...and for me who bets 200 a pop, the rollovers have never been an issue, and the customer service has always been top notch, and friendly. Very good understanding of english, and sarcasm, and I enjoy calling in.

                      I do want to switch to a faster payout, and my bank doesnt accept international bank wires as I have no SWIFT/VIC number cuz its a community bank, but I have too much time/money invested into them to switch books...Plus I love the halftime bets they roll out as thats where 75% of my bets go to.

                        Oh thats what you meant. Im open to other sportsbooks, and would love suggestions on moving to another sportsbook that offers quick halftime lines and a friendly interface. Plus I used to use sportsbook.com, and if I compare betus to them...there is no comparison. It took me 2 months to get a payout from sportsbook, because I was withdrawing everything after a huge parlay hit, that BROKE me even after a terrible year. (then I took a 6 month break and joined betus)

                        Anyways, calm down bro. Looks like you need some tips on handicapping.

                          And chuck, this post was to possibly get feedback from people who use betus and struggle, as Im suspicious if I decided to withdraw everything of how things would result. This post was to just say it was a successful payout. I don't frequent the forum so in retrospect, I should have just replied in the proper thread.

                          Flame on.

                            Another interesting tidbit. I made a teaser on the NFC championship for 1600 to win 1250, and made the bet hungover on saturday morning. I picked Jets +7.5 and Minnesota +3.5 which in result is Jets 14.5 and Minne 10.5. I did NOT want that. I wanted Colts -.5 and Minne +10.5. I immediately called betus, they cancelled the bet and replaced the proper bet. I thought that was amazing. The end result I would have won either way, but definitely would have stressed through it. I doubt theyd do that for less than a 1,000 bet though, as he did tell me since the bet is over 1,000 thats why they'd do that.

                              Load of better books, they have nothing any other book can't replace, and they risk not paying.

                                There operation use to be based in Kahnawake, but they were told to leave cause of the heat they were bringing to the reservation, so they upt and left only to open an office in downtown Montreal, totally illegal, but that is the nature of the peeps who run the joint.

                                Be happy you got paid and run as far away from them as you can or keep schilling.

                                To all others thinking about using them .........DON'T!

                                  Fair enough, I'll keep an eye on the payouts, and if I have any issue I'll file a complaint. So far no issues. Enough with the shilling comments...

                                  I guess this forum has issues when I thought this was a place to get honest feedback and not get flamed...

                                  All I've heard was bad from BETUS, but Ive never heard bad about their payouts, just minor line adjustments they pull.

                                  And most importantly, I've only heard issues on soccer bets, something I will never bet on. Also the rollover system they use, but when you lay around 1-2 grand a day..the rollover has never been an issue for me.

                                  So, for my case in point, I've yet to encounter an issue, but we will see on how this next payout goes. I will keep you updated.

                                        These crooks lied to me about a deposit bonus (they offered me a bonus and after I deposited, refused to grant it to me), almost immediately put me on a lengthy delay where they use my bets to update their stale lines, and canceled a CBB total I'd bet at un147 when the market was 145 claiming "bad line." I'm glad you got paid but these guys are still crooks. The sick thing is that because I'd heard so many times that they're a shit book, I only deposited $200 there and was making bets of no more than $50! What kind of a shit book steals a bonus from someone making a $200 deposit???

                                              I have an account but I haven't made deposits yet. They sent an e-mail who offer %100 bonus up to 1000$
                                              it's good bid. ( I think, I'm look like a loser )
                                              anyone have a thought?
