They have a nice selection of tracks now but the next step is adding more exotic bets and raising the brutal wps caps. I believe they're 15-1 win, 6-1 place 3-1 show.

#389They were very cordial to me when I was enquiring about their shop. The Rollover on a 35% cash bonus was too high for me though.
One thing I have learned.......
Being nice doesnt mean one has money. Time will tell. I hope they succeed.Comment -

#390Well I came upon several issues so far-and will gladly share them with you-they are new-yet could not wager more than 250.00 on a tennis match where the favorite was around -3.30 this morning-no tri-or pic 3"s-or superfectas-no race rebates-and the call center for wagering is handling other stores-called Sat. and was answered by another site-well just spoke to customer service this morning for a withdraw-however the information that I received on chat last night was different then what I got on the phone just now. They are trying hard-but make sure you know exactly every detail of every action you take-trying hard to put things together still.gl all
Hi Blackbox,
Like I have explained before we outsource our wagering clerks so they would not be able to help you in your cashout process and would have to transfer you over to CS in order to complete your request. I will review the chats myself from last night and I will contact you today and I am sure if you have any issues they will be resolved.
@OSU
Thanks for your feedback , over the years I have not missed a beat on a payout or let any players down , I do not intend in starting now.Regarding our financial situation I think SBRs insight on their newswire on how Betislands is run and backed by established bookmakers should also put you at ease.
The doors will always be open to you and looking forward in seeing you around for football.
Never hesitate to contact me guys I am here for you and to help you have a smooth ride.
Cheers!

Thanks Bet-Islands for putting forth good will. Guys wish I could go into more detail- but my typing would take me all day long.Comment -

Hi Jeter,

#406I was holding off posting about Jon and betislands till now.
I spoke with Jon on the phone last week (I think it was a fluke he picked up) as I was generally inquiring about their operation, management, and what we can expect from them moving ahead.
I would put Jon right up there with Scotty from BetJm.
Those who recognize my handle and know my posts will appreciate this report.
I know Jon wants to break away from 'the pack' and in my eyes he's doing all the right things.
I would stop posting and quit this site if I ever needed to be a shill for anyone --- That includes both good or bad Un-warranted reporting.
Jon don't make me look bad:-)Comment -

FWIW, I probably made a couple hundred bets at betislands and I only had one wager graded incorrectly (tennis) and it happened to be in my favor..I'd assume they were just using an unreliable source for their Japanese baseball results, I'm sure your experience wasn't intentional..Comment -

It's like asking someone "you wanna walk 100 miles or drive " . I can get same bonus with other books without leaving my home , same with a payouts .
With MB I would definitely give them a try .
