decipher this youwager message

saints7011 · 05-12-10, 08:48 PM

I have no idea , first thing that I thought was someone had hacked into your account , if you're making the min bet they allow , I see nothing wrong with that...

tltaylor89 · 05-12-10, 08:48 PM

LOL sounds like you havent been wagering money you put in their .Take a payout go to Matchbook and never look back.Book always has had shit lines.

jackkkk2009 · 05-12-10, 08:51 PM

I had opened an account at youwager.com last year. But i haven't made any deposits yet. now They closed my account and ask me to call in to reactivate it.

tltaylor89 · 05-12-10, 08:57 PM

I opened an account with Youwager but they called me 6-8 times a day asking for deposits that was a red flag for me.

clarkd32 · 05-12-10, 09:33 PM

asked for a check on saturday and received it tuesday morning fed ex.

i've been paid everytime by youwager without any problems....

lol

They pay and have 10 cent lines

trixtrix · 05-12-10, 10:43 PM

this is not a limits issue, unless they forgot the fact that they put me on 500/1k limits, since i bet the max limit every time.

xxx do you ever plan on making real bets?

==================================
i didn't realize all my prev bets were fake

naturally i contacted live chat so i can understand what it is that they want me to do, the response was to call back tomorrow to talk one of the managers (wish they would just spell it out for me instead of making me guess)

That seems really douchey. Just saying, but that would turn me off.

When I considered opening an account here, this is what prevented me. I read this in almost every review thread for them. Them calling that frequently does not appear to be an exaggeration either.

No idea what they mean..assuming they meant your taking advantage of softer/slow moving lines and hedging elsewhere for a +. Even return.

Not saying that's the case or anything wrong with doing that, just my initial interpetation of the meaning.

trixtrix · 05-13-10, 10:28 AM

except i don't play steam, and those pms about other derivative bets, yea i've been limited/banned from those since sept of 09.

ftr, i rolled over six-figure during nfl/ncaafb during football season on straight bets alone, and no i don't chase steam/arb

djefferis · 05-13-10, 10:58 AM

Like I said, not saying that's the case, or that I have an issue with it..books just have a hard time accepting not everyone is a complete moron sometimes and jump to conclusions.

Any way around it, complete bs message. If your chasing steam, then they should warn you accordingly and if it happens again deal with it fairly.

If it's a bonus issue, let you meet the terms and no longer offer a bonus. Not get snippy over losing. You expect players to have a little class when losing and the same should be expected of the shop. No one likes a smartass, espc a losing smartass.

WTF

trixtrix · 05-13-10, 12:32 PM

i considered this matter currently as resolved

i called in and spoke to cory who was very nice, he indicated that the current management did not realize that the previous management had me severely limited and impacted my ability to wager effectively on youwager, which caused the misunderstanding. we agreed on a mutually-beneficial solution of having my acct re-normalized and i would give them more action once football starts w/ the exception that i can no longer receive bonuses, which is perfect for me.

will work on a book-to-book transfer from bet phoenix to youwager once i get home tonight. as my faith in their ability to pay have not been impacted.

kmarinouofm · 05-13-10, 12:47 PM

wait youwager transfers with the phoenix group?

skrtelfan · 05-13-10, 07:12 PM

I must be missing something, but why did they care about the size of your wagers? I've never once had a book complain I was betting too small with them.

mtneer1212 · 05-13-10, 07:14 PM

This is bizarre behavior -- whats next -- betting a $1k 5 team parlay, hitting 4 outta 5, then getting a message -- "so close, nice try moron. HAHAHAHA"

Excellent payouts at youwager/betpop.

frostno98 · 05-14-10, 12:35 AM

Aside from all the side circus act some people get from them, it's a legit book that pays quickly.

Peep · 05-14-10, 12:41 AM

That is nice they worked it out with trix, I am impressed.

Winner_13 · 05-14-10, 02:24 AM

i think it's more like they don't understand why i don't give them too much action. that note could've been worded/explained better though, and cory acknowledged that. i was confused as hell the first time i read it.

sq764 · 05-14-10, 08:52 AM

I'd say no, go eff yourself and roll

katstale · 05-14-10, 09:59 AM

Can they payout ewallet? Do they transfer with anyone other than Phoenix?

Weird, I have lots of books where I give little action and I've never once had that happen. You'd think they'd be happy to be making interest on your money risk free.

What did they changs your limits to ? They have me at 1000 and 500.

trixtrix · 06-05-10, 11:33 AM

well that didn't last long...

my internet wager max got cut from 1k to 500 to currently 300 within a week, i bet wnba/nhl/boxing/mma/and nba team total.. i guess they really didn't want my "real" action

DBurton81 · 06-05-10, 11:46 AM

LOL....these guys are a joke!

trixtrix · 06-05-10, 12:07 PM

i like to retract my last posting, youwager called me promptly after my post went up to explain that i was still on overnight limits and they lifted that i guess between then and now, and now i see my previous full limits. i guess i didn't expect overnight limits still be in effect until noon EDT but who doesn't take a weekend morning off now and then heh
