    BETUS Payout

    Monday the 7th a payout was processed from my account. I now have a tracking number for this payout. payout was quoted at 2 weeks. looks like thats about what its actually running.

    I would really advise anyone carrying a balance with betus to cash out now, before the superbowl. The reason for this is because everyone will be cashing out after the superbowl. IF they already have your payout requested before the madrush, you shouldn't have any delays.

    I would recommend only dealing with highly rated sports books for the superbowl. Alot of books also shutdown if they are new books and just vanish without paying there clients.

    Anyways, just a thought. Do everything and anything to get your money out of any book rated b- or lower is my thoughts.

    Glad to hear your withdraw was processed and they provided you with a tracking number.

    I feel you did give some very sound advice that posters should give some serious consideration in regards to only playing at top tier type books right now during this superbowl time.

    pure- Glad to hear it. Imo BetUS isn't going anywhere. It'll be business as usual after the Super Bowl although payouts may take a little longer then their 2 week average.

    yes, but the economy is down a bit this year and I think that US law is actually hurting some of the smaller books... Need to stay with the big boys atm I think.

    I really advise people to payout get there money, before the championship games/superbowl. This way they are guarenteed a payout. No small shop is going to close before the big game.

    Just an opinion. I think in the next month we see some threads about how a book went under and people got screwed. Can't say I didn't warn people.

    Its just an opinion take it for what it is...

    BetUS (SBR rated D+) has been around for roughly 14 years now, and is part of the Little NASA family of books. They have had a rather checkered history that include slow pays, confiscations, stealing, and robbery type disputes levied against them over the years.

    Thanks for the info. It's been really tempting to play there due to their large range of offers, U.S sports and non U.S sports. They offer particulary good odds on their non U.S sports compared to European bookmakers.

    The website is also quite convincing as it is quite professional compared to other books. I seen their bad rating here and did a search on the forum and decided to stay away. Hopefully they change their ways..

    I'm not a big time player. I do a couple of games above 100.00 a year...not a big deal for me. I have fun with what I bet.

    But these guys that got like 50k confiscated. My crew I grew up with. 2 green berets, 1 army ranger, 1 guy that is on a elite coast guard boarding team, and then there is the marine reservist that spent more time in combat than our buddy still in the navy for 8 years .

    Basically everyone I grew up with went into the military and just got out They did 6 year things. So now I sit at home watch the games an bullshit with a bunch of guys that got tired of being shot at for now. They All told me if I ever got screwed on a book they'd go down there with me...

    Now I'm not that kinda guy, well maybe I am for 50k. But if all these other people get screwed why don't they hop there ass down there and handle some business?

    I also filled out a SBR complaint form, then the verification code of 4 and 6 wouldn't work so I emailed the general assistance. This way my documentation is in order. I magine its another 2 weeks before I get paid.

    Ok, can you explain why they took 6 weeks to pay me the first time around then? They want there money now, they claim to have a processing time of 10 buisness days then step up to the plate and get it done.

    Tired of hearing excuses just in general, at work, people who can't drive on snow, people who are just plain dumb, people who are broke, those people that steal from the quarter fountain at the mall...

    w/e happened to a good old asswhipping for not delivering on your word?

    These are not easy times for books.

    One poster said BetUS is not going anywhere. I'm not so sure about that. I wouldnt be in this book from Jan to July. Just not a good bet.

    Now according to bill who is a "supervisor" they are having a problem between third party and DHL. (sounds like someone didn't pay someone.) The shipment shows at acknowledged but nothing after that. They are trying to resolve the issue and consider it a day to day problem.

    Going on 3 weeks now to recieve a check from them...

    and they are cold calling with 100% bonus on deposits.

    I'm not laughing at your misery purecarnagge, but I am laughing at the fact that they had the nerve to cold call you like that.

    I take it that you have already filled out a complaint form or no? If not please feel free to and one of us will inquire on your behalf.

    the verification code wouldn't work so I sent a general assitance email. That was earlier this week. Yah I was laughing at work, the guy was stumpling to get off the phone.

    I kept asking him about the super fast payouts, and then after the last person left my office, I go then why the **** do you take 6 weeks, the **** am I on week 3 of my current payout...

    Verification on the complaint form isn't working for me. I've tried this on 4 occasions now.
