    Something GOOD to report:

    I have an account with VIP and I use them once in a blue moon. Yesterday I receive an email saying “For your birthday this year we want to give you a present. Here is 50,000 point for you to use.” Well 50,000 points equals a free $50 wager. Pretty cool so far.

    I go to my account and claim the free $50 bet with no problem. Then VIP offers me a free 3 point discount on any game for the Football Playoffs for today. Of course I make a free $50 wager for today and take a 3 point swing in my favor for -105.

    Now how can you say anything bad about this? There are no strings and everything went very easy.

    Good to see a book takes care of its customers once in a while.

    Just thought I would share this as it seems that we very rarely hear about the Good Things Books do once in a while.

    Thanks for reading and Good Luck in your wagers!!

    Swain

    VIP also have this nice "feature":

    You get 0.5 point free on your favorite teams. They can be chosen in the account settings menu.

    I liked playing at VIP, but they are quick to limit successful players. After being cut to $50 max bets I left.

    Along with 5Dimes, probably the site I wish I'd been able to hang around with a bit more before they cut me off. I was at Betongames, which was in the VIP family. If I recall, they had a very nice loyalty program, one of the better ones.

    VIP was a good book to have for me up till about 2 yrs ago

    collected many rewards such as shirts and sony speakers and other stuff

    they also had beatable lines

    also paid me promptly when they no longer wanted my action and booted me
