Betboo - opinions?

I've never played at this book before, however here is what I do know about them. [iSBRFORUM]Betboo[/iSBRFORUM] has been around since 2005 and is part of the Intertonic Ltd. family of books licensed in Costa Rica, and use the Proprietary software.

Thanks. I'll stay away for now as I can't seem to find any informative results about them on Google.

Where do these books get their names from?

I'm having a play at this bookie (tiny sums, as its an unknown book).

Deposited £15, £7.50 bonus added automatically

Pros:
Good customer service so far. Although if you speak to them on live chat they will start the conversation in Spanish, they seem to be bilingual.
Nothing really that sets them apart from other books.

Cons:
Withdrawal restriction from the bonus doesn't seem to automatically be lifted upon completion of rollover, or wasn't for me - if you're going to play here, might be worth not getting the bonus for ease. I now have to wait until Monday to attempt a withdrawal of my funds for the technical team to sort it out and an email.

Bets seem to be settled within 15-30 minutes of match completion, which is longer than I am used to at most bookies I've tried.

Odds are nothing special. With a cursory glance at most sports juice is:
Baseball 5%
Soccer 11%
Rugby League 10%

While they may or may not be reliable and quick payers (here's hoping they are!), the odds are better (often considerably) elsewhere and they don't offer anything different, so I can't really see a reason to bet here.

I will report with the success, speed and ease of withdrawal, as well as the email and whether it arrives when they say it will.

I use it from 6 months and they are very correct for now with payments,support and bet settlement.
Sometimes the site loading very slow and my limits are up to 200$ for soccer but overall i think they are ok -something like C+ rated bookies.

Did you happen to notice any types of time delays at all Mr.Champi? If so I would be interested in that info.

No I have delays only at site speed sometimes for loading but they dont have bet delays for now i think.

I played there but the limits are very low and the also don't offer many events.

Thanks

Interesting name...Their Halloween promos must be quite good.

Very low limits,but seem okay so far,never had to request a payout as yet.

Ruifgalmeida · 12-06-09, 11:32 AM

Sounds too close to BetPoo

Stumpage · 12-06-09, 05:09 PM

My opinion is that their name is bloody retarded.....

Seriously, maybe it's shallow thinking, but would you ever send funds to a place called "betboo"? Maybe I'm just sensitive because of the hoops I had to go through to explain the name "WSEX" to my wife after she went snooping around my laptop.

I have never played at Betboo but have been on the verge of signing up a couple times.
