    Heritage is a good book, but..
    they gave me the boot. I turned that $500 free play offer they sent to people who had dormant accounts into a little over $4500. Their "risk management" team de-activated my account and said they really didn't want my type of play (the last straw was last week when I went 9 out of 10 on teasers and parlays). That's okay, they had already limited all my bets to a max of $100 anyway.

    On the good side, they already sent the 2 checks by FedEx! (I hope they clear).

        I opened an account there about 5 or 6 years ago and deposited a small amount a couple of times. Wonder if they would give me a bonus of some kind to come back and use them.

              It's seems they have insiders in other books and only invoice losers. I'd never get a letter from them.....

                I've said it before I'll say it again - Most overrated book in the industry.

                  Bill, they will clear. Bet on it. Congrats on your win, but what a dumb way to get booted. Seriously, Heritage is giving away free money--all you have to do is stay under the radar and enjoy the freebies. Bulls and Bears make money, Pigs ......

                    Sounds funny coming from a RebateWager tout-- a true Book for losers. In Fact RW is so sure you'll lose they'll return 25%-50% of your money. I'll take Heritage in a hearbeat over RW.

                        Hey clueless one. I'll give you 500 SBR points if you find one post that says Heritage "never limits/kicks people(out) and can take any type of action".

                            Heritage will limit you if you are super sharp, but they are not afraid of winners, just steam players and syndicates. I am about even there lifetime, and they have treated me well.

                                Since not everyone can join, they are turning away a lot of money. The big question is WHY? Doesn't seem like a recipe for success.

                                    No book like this should be #3 in anyones best books list (i'm looking in your direction Fishhead ).
                                    Along the same lines, how in the world can anyone rank 5dimes ahead of Bookmaker?

                                    The clear top 3 in the American market (no particular order):

                                    Bookmaker
                                    Greek
                                    Matchbook

                                        The $500 fp was a no deposit promo.

                                                      Yes you have to be invited. It's not hard to get invited though.

                                                          I'm not pushing the panic button yet, but my bank just called and told me the checks from Heritage were returned "not eligible for clearing". They were written on a Canadian Bank so it may be some sort of mix up between banks. My bank is going to look into it and let me know. I'll keep this forum informed on what happens.

My bank says they have to submit a "payment on demand" to the Canadian bank Heritage uses and it could take a few weeks to get my money. This is really bullshit for a B+ book in my opinion. It's not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things, but it's the principle of the thing.

                                                                    Sounds like sour grapes on your part for getting limited by them, but I'll bet everything I own that you're good on this. FWIW, get another bank for collecting your winnings via check from any legit Book.

If you have been a good customer for a few years, the bank essentially trusts you and loans you the money for this period. But if you are a new customer or they have other concerns, they will put it on hold until it clears.
