    Wonder how much they pay SBR for this B+ rating.
    Website down all the time, limits get cut in no time, they even moved some guys i spoke to back from -105 to -110 lines.

    So what exactly is B+ about them? Them being around for such a long time?
    No wait, they are rather new...

    Yes I must agree about the limit cutting + moving from -105 to -110, they did both of those to me rather quickly. Doesn't really seem fair to do that while I'm trying to complete a bonus rollover. If they want to do that stuff and allow me to take my $ and go, fine, but doing that while still expecting me to wager a large amount when I signed up knowing I was getting -105 pricing, well that doesn't make me happy...

    Be aware when putting parlay or dogs in this site, sometimes they give your winning prize ONLY instead of risk $ + prize$.
    Seems like they don't like people wagering in parlay

    Nope, I don't use freeplay. They never gave me those and I don't mind. I bet there's big glitch in their software, that's why.

    Have they hit you with the delay and subsequent air moves yet?

    If not, thats next.

    Yes the delay was actually the first thing they hit me with but that wasn't a big deal really. Not sure what you mean by air moves though.

    I guess it's not a huge deal either way, I don't plan to keep betting there once I complete this rollover, but I still do think it's shady to take away my -105 pricing and cut my limits when I agreed to a certain rollover thinking I was doing so under certain conditions and then after the fact they essentially changed those conditions on me.

    Just doesn't seem to bode well for a book that feels the need for a delay, cutting limits, and increasing a player's juice when they beat them. Many books do one of those three things, but a book which does all, not sure how they can reasonably survive longterm...

    I've only been there a few weeks and have beaten them like a drum. No problem with payouts and I'm still getting the -105 lines (except in hockey).

    Have any of you asked them why your juice was raised? Doesn't seem right, since this is one of their key selling points. Especially if you're still in a rollover period.

    They pay, which is the main thing. But they charge $20 on book-to-book transfers, and $50 on checks by regular mail.

    Also, their book to book transfers take more than 24 hours for some reason, and you have to keep contacting them to remind them to do them.

    Definitely wouldn't classify them as "not a good book". As long as they keep honoring the -105 juice and keep paying, they are still top tier, based on my experiences with other places. They just have some problems they have to get fixed.

    They do not charge $50 for a check by regular mail,I've got one floating out there somewhere and all they took from my acct. is what I withdrew.That free check is once a month.

    You get one check up to $2,000 free per month (actually i think this is 30 day period). They are $50 each $2,000 after that.

    Weekly limit is $4,000. So if you take out $4,000, you are charged $50 the first week, and $100 the next 3 weeks. Takes a while to get a balance out, though the checks (MO) come fast.

    I seem to be alone in this aspect as well, but I only made one ever withdrawal from BetPhoenix via Moneybookers and it was free. I've had people swear up and down that they have never had a free MB withdrawal from Phoenix (Always $20) but that was not the case for me...
