    Jazette Bonuses

    Despite their poor rating I've never had a problem with Jazette.
    What I would like to know is which offer the best daily or weekly bonuses.
    I know there are a couple that do 10% on Thursdays.
    Any better than that?

    mysportsbook.com used to offer 10% via ewallets any day of the week, but that has been reduced to 5%.

    hollywood was offering 30% and 37% reloads recently as they apparently have new management [and a bit of a new design]. The promo codes for those were HOTTIES and SNEAKPEAK I believe - they may still work.

    Who has a good list of Thursday 10% books? I know Iwager does, and though they claim it is 10% up to $100, I can often get 10% up to around $300.

    Good thread Fordman, I like the Jazette books too.

    They have paid me but also then very tough to deal with.

    I've been getting some good bonus offers from Hollywood lately. I don't think they are on the website, but I am on their mailing list.

    Why? Why? Why would you engage this group? There are sooooo many better options.

    Jazette books have good bonuses, good lines, good software and fast payouts. That being said, I have found that if you need anything resolved, it is almost impossible to talk to someone that can actually help you. There is one customer service team that takes care of ALL of the Jazette books. They are incompetent and most of the time they can't even figure out which rules apply to which books. One way to get around this is to stick with the Jazette books that are privately managed (Brobury, Hollywood, BetUSA, etc.) I once asked LiveHelp for an email address to contact someone from Hail Mary Sports. They couldn't provide me with one and instead said they would pass along the message for me. I have never heard back from them.

    Jazette books are not on the same level as Pinnacle, for example, but they are still a worthwhile out.

    I think Linesmaker, Racebook, Sportsbetting and Win4real are privately managed too.

    Jazette has a rolling 100% bonus. Deposit all you want and they can steal it all whenever they want. Your money, their bonus. GL suckers.

    I had accounts at the supposedly independent higher-rated Jazette books and they still robbed me when the order came down.

    Can you explain what happened to you exactly?

    It's all in the risk/reward analysis each person should conduct for themselves. For some people it's worth it. As long as people are aware of the risks involved before going in, there's nothing wrong with making a deposit. Some people, me being one of them, have never had a problem with Jazette books over a pretty long period. I have heard what has happened to others, and am willing to deposit there smaller amounts anyways.

    I swear Hedgehog, you've been stiffed by every book that exists. I bet even the library has stiffed you and Domino's Pizza, too.

    Like everyone, my story begins with "I played there for years and never had a problem until..."

    In early 2007, I wanted to make a big deposit to bet hockey and baseball. They couldn't accept more than $2000 per day. I was told to open accounts at sister books to deposit more.

    I gambled and won. And won. And won. Throughout this time, Sportsbook.com wasn't paying anyone so my balance just kept ballooning. (Check the archives for the longest and dullest thread in SBR history about their slow-pays.) The more I won, the more I bet. I couldn't lose no matter how hard I tried. By the end of the summer the accounts were up to over $150,000.

    Early September, I try to log in and my accounts are disabled. I call and am told I'm under investigation. A week goes by with no response. Finally an email comes saying my original account would be paid and the remaining balances forfeited for "abusing multiple accounts." I wasn't doing anything abusive. I wasn't circumventing limits. Back then they would take practically any bet for any amount if you just asked for approval. I wasn't hustling bonuses. They automatically added whatever measly bonuses I got. I didn't ask for or care about them in the least. I only had the accounts because they told me to open them so I could deposit more.

    After sending my bank instructions for the payment originally promised and filing a dispute with SBR for the rest, they informed me that I wouldn't receive anything. Why steal the wallet and leave the watch?

    I still hope for a peaceful ending to this.

    Betusa (b-) has the highest rating within that family group. Others are lower than c- to d-.

    yes good bonuses but...

    "All betting cash and bonus funds awarded as part of this promotion carry the standard 20x sports rollover requirement" (brobury %50 bonus)

    meanwhile when NFL or NBA season arrive sportsbetting.com offers %110-%125 huge bonuses.rollover 5* !.strange.I recieved this sign-up bonus last year.they gave %150 because I had sent with **.300 for 450!!! I made a withdraw two monts later. Then I got an e-mail from covers.com "special promotion for covers.com members LOGANS %100 bonus up to 200$" I registered and they blocked my account

    Jazette calculates rollover as 20x bonus amount, so if you deposit $1000 for $100 the rollover is $100x20 not $1100x20.
