    Pet Peeve about bonuses

    Every single time I make a deposit to a sportsbook that earns a bonus, I have to talk to someone for them to finally put it into my account. You have the bonus terms listed on your site. When I make a qualifying deposit, just put the dam bonus into my account.

    This also happens sometimes for deposit fees that are covered. They put the deposit in your account, but you still need to contact them for the fee to be credited.

    I can't stand when they tell you that it has to be on major sports, if you dont want action on some lesser sports, dont offer them.

    Not everyone wants a bonus..As for the fees, they don't know the exact fees until you tell them..

    what i don't understand is, why can't books have some sort of rollover indicator to show how much you've completed and how much is left. it wouldn't be very hard to implement.

    You have to ask for it cause not everyone wants the bonus. I personally dont take them. I dont want rollover restrictions and have to jump thru hoops to w/d my own money.

    When you call for the deposit, just ask them to credit your fees and bonus as well.

    Of course they will still fukk it up about 75% of the time!

    I never take bonuses. Too much hassle when attempting to withdraw. No Bonus=No restrictions

    What I really hate is when you deposit it asks for a bonus code. So you put the bonus code in and you still have to contact them after the fact to get the bonus.

    This , they cant assume you want a bonus, because some people dont take them.

    sportsbook.com sites have a "rollover indicater", But when your me and complete the bonus requirments shown, and want to cash out, they cancel it without saying anything. After being on hold for 1 hour, they tell me oh we made a mistake, go ahead and cash out again. Next day I call and I'm told "oh yes sir that last bonus you took had a 10x rollover on the base amount, im a nice guy and if you want to cash out I can take the 500$, that is really nice of me cause most sites would take the bonus AND part of your winnings. HEY a$$hole, i never wagered your bonus amount. If you knew anything about sportsbook.com they say the rollover is 20x the bonus amount. I love these sites and every angle they play.
