Waiting to see a response from Jon about how the recent closings will affect his shop. Does he expect to see more business and how can he assure us that he won't leave the USA. I have already signed up but haven't made a deposit yet.

Hi guys,

Just to clear any doubts , our ways of operating and banking will always remain the same like I mentioned in my previous post we are NOT looking to become the biggest book out there we want to be one of the most efficient ones.

We will not be leaving the US market our business model allows us to provide a solid service with fast payments since we stay away from all plastic. Right now we are considering going invite only after this season is over this may be the only change you see in our shop.

If you have any more questions please feel free to contact me at any time.

Have a good one !

Jon

So happy this shop is around... i know a lot of US players are worried about the Greek... i feel bad for a lot of folks who woke up this morning scratching there head with no idea... glad it happened a little over a month out from the college season.. it would suck if people were scrambling week of..

glad i am in at a book i trust and reps i have been working with for over 3+ years.. change is sometimes for the better.. since i have been at islands i have been happy .. so I welcome this change. .

I know i will be depositing here for football season, since its an all cash book they avoid most of the problems other books face with the govt.

So many good shops to pick from that been in bussiness over 15years . Betislands not one of them .

Hi Creed,

Everybody is entitled to their own opinion and I respect yours , with the recent events in the online gaming industry all players should do their due diligence before posting up at a shop.

This is not my first rodeo the last book I founded never had a single payout complaint against it and players were always extended the red carpet , now with Betislands I intend to the same and even better.

I have been in involved in the offshore industry since its birth I have seen it go through all sorts of changes and also adapting to them has been a challenge that many have failed at. With Betislands we keep it simple same day payouts most in 2 to 3 hours and checks every 3 business days.

Why?

Because we stay away from plastic , there are some great shops that still offer these banking methods but they have their own business model.

With us you will never have to be worry about a processor being shut down or confiscated.

Like I have said before we will never be the book with adds all over the place but we will be the book that pays clients on time and makes sure its clients are satisfied.

It is almost official we will go invite only after the next Super Bowl so we can continue to do what we do best which is offer bettors a smooth , simple betting experience.

Last but not least like mentioned in the last SBR report we are backed by bookmakers that have decades in the business so players can feel at ease when playing with us.

I have said this before and I will say it again my goal is to become one of the top US friendly books out there , I feel we are right on track on doing so.

Keep the feedback coming it is the only way we can ever grow and become a better sportsbook.

Have a good one!

Jon

Jon,

If you stay away from plastic, why does it say CC under banking options.

I think all that stuff is copied from jazz??I can say i have had a great experience with Betislands. Thanks Jon!

**me-first** · 07-24-11, 05:58 PM

I've played with betislands for a few weeks and have been treated very well..probably won't be using them for football though, they don't seem to like answering my email anymore

**Betislands** · 07-24-11, 07:11 PM

Hi Physed ,

Thanks for the feedback when I first took over I had a VIP processor in place for certain clients , we are launching our new website within 10 days with all updated banking info.

But to avoid any confusions I just had it removed from our webpage.

The CC option has been removed from our cashier for quite some time now.

@Me First , please try contacting us via live chat since sometimes client emails go into our spam box.

Thanks!

Jon

**ThaWoj** · 07-24-11, 10:44 PM

I usually play at 5dimes but I really want to make a deposit with you guys.

**SamChu** · 07-24-11, 11:03 PM

**ThaWoj** · 07-24-11, 11:04 PM

**JDUB07** · 07-24-11, 11:27 PM

All books are great when u lose. The test is what they say or do when u get a payout. Hopefully u will. It appears these guys pay.

**losemyloot** · 07-25-11, 11:08 AM

Hi Losemyloot,

We are not related to any other sportsbooks at all so any accounts you may have at other books does not affect you here at Betislands.

Take care!

You're confusing Jazette with Jazz. BI uses Jazz software but are separate companies.

**BewareOf5Dimes** · 07-25-11, 01:17 PM

I typed in the wrong address yesterday...lol. Then, today I offered 500 bucks for this name and got turned down! It is not seized. Guy put that on the page.

Guy told me he has had higher offers than that. Buncha bullsheet. He should have taken my 500.

Jon if your handing out freeplays to these pathetic one liners I am starting to get a little concerned, at least make these shills type out a well thought out sentence or two.

I am liking what your doing here so far but have yet to see any players report payouts on large balances so it would be a far stretch to claim Betislands as an "A+" book or "the best book around"

Shilling is a big turnoff to me

Hi Sharpcat,

I will keep it nice and short.

Can you find when a player when I owned Wagerchief that did not get paid?

Can you find any genuine negative feedback on Betislands?

My books are open to SBR at all times and all the players that claim to be paid with evidence of play.

The fact that I actually care about my clients and treat them all the way they deserve and pay them out in time does not make me a shill if they want to post about it.

There have been posters that have won large amounts I just do not ask them to post , now if you have a problem with player feedback I suggest you take it up with SBR.

Until someone can prove me that I do not pay clients I will continue to wear this smile on my face and be proud of who I am and what I have done and what I will do in this industry.

I did not get 3 upgrades in 4 months because I run a Mickey Mouse shop or because my bankroll is a loan on my house , ownership has been in this business over 2 decades and are established bookmakers.

SBR can feel free to ask proof of payments to all players before posting , but if people are going to question my reputation I suggest come with ANY real complaints not assumptions.

Have a good one,

Jon

**BigDaddy** · 07-26-11, 07:55 PM
