    Is it the same as Skywage? I just signed up with Skywage for a 150% bonus. Their site is terrible and such a pain the ass to navigate.

    They sent me a text saying about a free $100 on the NBA finals which i never bothered with. The text says Skywagecash.com . It says 150% cash bonus. The thing though is at one point i said to him about being screwed from a new book out of $3500 that was new (Wager305 i think it was) and i am leery about trying new books i will check him out on SBR . He said they were not exactly new and have been around like a year or so. So i told him if that is true there should be something about them on SBR . He said they were in the process of joining SBR . So i am thinking he is lying but gave him the benefit of the doubt and went on here to check on them. Not much on them except you guys who either just joined up or just got a text from them.

    Oh wow this is weird. So i was curious to see if these guys were anywhere else. I looked on Covers and i do see Skywage. It was a year old post. But the site is different. Skywage has a different look then skywagecash . Skywagecash has a big picture of Lebron on it the other does not.

    But then i noticed the phone numbers are the exact same. So maybe he was not lying and they are the same and they have been around a year or so. Or is Skywagecash a scam using the other number posing as them? IDK but it is interesting.

    Got the same call as well. Guys name was Jerry, and sounded exactly like a "jerry' that used to work at Alliance Sportsbook..but who knows, Ive talked to him at some other sportsbook at one time in the past it seems. Was very cordial, mentioned a 1,000 deposit at first...lol. Then offered the 100 free play to me as well, with no deposit. I asked him the max cashout. He said needed to check.

    He texted me back 15 minutes later and said was a15x roll, with 200 max cashout. Or could do the $25 no deposit free play listed on the site, but would be 100 max cash out, if I just did that one.

    Seemed legit, especially since it took him a few minutes to text back on the max cash out, like he had to check with a higher up.

    I dunno, seems like might be worth it to try it for the $25 and shoot for the 100 ...to at least test out ??...would only be 375 to roll. I didn't take up on it yet, might try the 25 free play, but then don't want to open myself to constant cold calling or emails, and all that either.

    Only thing I could find too, were a couple of short threads on reddit from about a year ago...didn't say they were rogue, but one person just said they were known for less than stellar customer service, or something of that nature.

    Definitely guys name and voice sounded real familiar, like maybe from a book I used years back or something.

    Anyone planning to try them out and be the guinea pig?

    I've had 3 disputes already in a month. 2 baseball bets made in the evening for the next days game were graded losses based on that days game when the bet was made hours later. Casino loss where the dealer was credited with 21 on an A-9, pushed my K-J. I have pictures of the BJ push but don't know how to post it.

    I have been with Skywage for a little over 2 years now. So it has been around for atleast that long. I followed my account manager from another book and he told me to give him 1 year to see if the book is good and reliable. After that year, we started doing good business and i have been paid out multiple times, sent to a handful of sporting events, and i even closed all my other books and using Skywage full time. Grading yes can be slow at times but overall no issues. Bonuses are awesome NO freeplay BS. straight cash bonuses.

    The domain was only registered last year btw. So unless they changed it, it's been around less time than you mentioned.

    They were another book, i cant think of the name right now, and they rebranded with Skywage. My account manager was approached for a higher position and he told me that everything seems promising but he needs to see first how things get handed.

    Any chance the original name was 18thholesportsbook or Snakeeyes88?


    I am not doubting you personally. But if a book has been around over 2 years and trying to slowly build a reputation, it's almost impossible to believe no other SBR poster knows about it.

    It sounds like you may have been used as one of a handful innocent marketing tools. If Skywage asked you to post in this thread, or post about them at all, set you BS radar to full power and be careful with them. IF they are asking you to post for them.

    Their site still sucks but they do have a rollover counter you can request be enabled, I didn't check it's accuracy but I'll know when I hit it and make a payout request. Still plugging away.

    Have to watch these guys closely, 2 BJ bets today where a win only gave me back the original bet, they corrected it and gave me the correct winnings. Now I have a winning bet graded correctly but shows a $200 bet at 100 only giving me back a total return of $200, instead of $400. Email sent so they better get this one corrected as well. Sloppy at best.

    Update, they corrected the mistake and added the $200 to my balance.

    I don't think he knows of a relationship. Just smells like another hit n run operation.

    Maybe try to turn over your deposit and withdraw ASAP?

    Got mine too. $500 btc. Took a $100 deposit with 150% bonus to $2200. When you request the payout they deduct the funds immediately, no delaying so you'll lose it back.

    Does it drive anybody else crazy that they show the total winnings instead of risk and winning amount only. Most books will show a -110 bet for example as 110 risk to win 100, they show a 110 bet to return 210. It's the only book I use regularly that does it so it throws me off when I'm looking at multiple bets.

    Been a longtime lurker, saw this thread, and checked the site out.. got on chat with them, ask if they had any nodeposit bonuses to check out the site.. The gave me a 50$ credit to try it out.. ended up bringing it up to 1k.. asked about payouts, they said the rollover was 4x with max cash out.. of $200.. Had to send in my docs for verification..the 200 was immediately deducted from my acct.. They wiped away the rest.. I told them i was planning on depositing but i wanted to make sure they were legit and would wait for my payout 1st... They said 1-3 days b4 the bitcoin would process, which any other book is normally quicker.. So we shall see, i will update when it hits...

    wanted to add, i dont normally use new books, I keep everything at 5dimes or betdsi.. but they had alot of live soccer lines, which was why i checked it out..
