      Not sure what this means, please clarify. After placing several bets this week, I ran my available balance low. So I did the live chat with Jim this morning to deposit, but I'm deemed ineligible for this promo. It seems any withdrawals ever made become part of a "make-up figure", regardless of the amounts of your prior deposits. Basically, I've withdrawn as much as I've deposited so I figure I'm back to square one. Yet I still have a $1975 make-up figure to do prior to being bonus eligible? Isn't completing a 10-12x RO enough to release your funds from ineligibilty?

      Thanks in advance, Hedge.

        Hi Hedge,

        The make up figure is on account to account basis as you can see each account has its own history regarding deposits vs payouts. Please feel free to contact us again so we may assist you with your deposit.

        Have a good day,

        Jon

          I'm just trying to understand the bonus eligibilty requirement because it is not clearly defined anywhere that I can see. Books I've used in the past would prohibit a bonus if you withdrew w/i the past 30 days (which I haven't) or if you're a net winner (again not as I sent $2000 in and withdrew $1975 out). If I understand your make-up rule, all withdrawals must be deposited again w/o a bonus prior to any new bonuses permitted? Whatever your rule is, it needs to be clearly defined on the bonus page IMO.

          You have a good day too and keep doing what you do. BI is the best thing to happen to American players in a long, long time.

                Their site still advertises it,and I see no expiration date on the offer, so they should honor it for you.

                  Will BetIslands allow Parlays in MMA/UFC/Boxing in the Future. I really think this would be a great feature to help put BetIslands on the map in the fighting world. Guys love to bet parlays in the MMA world its makes it more fun.

                  You could even set a max $200 parlay bet and it wouldnt be that big of a deal just as long as guys are able to lay $200 on all the fighers they want

                    Hedge, I believe their site advertises 100% for new accounts only, not on reloads..I was just going by the offer that was posted in this thread and in Jon's response to you yesterday, he gave no indication this bonus was no longer available..A few hours later though, and I was only able to muster 50%..And I didn't get no free 1/2 point either, which IS advertised on their site with the 50% bonus..If a bonus offer is mentioned in this thread, or any other thread, it probably should also be mentioned when it's no longer available...My fault for depositing before I asked about the bonus though..Thinking back now, there was also a "hitch" with my last attempt to collect a bonus at BI..Sure it was quickly cleared up, but still....

                    And before anybody runs in to defend BI, there's no need..I've been playing there for a few months now and made many deposits, I already know about their great customer service, etc..not disputing that, just sharing my latest experience with BI, nothing more, nothing less..

                      I'm sure this has been asked, but no Kentucky at all? If you're going accept American players why not go all the way and allow all the states?

                      If their is a way to sign-up and wager from KY will someone post here or shoot me PM.

                      Thanks,

                        Hi MeFirst,

                        Thanks for choosing Betislands. Indeed the 100% bonus is available until I promote it is expired we will continue to run it the rest of the week , please contact me if you wish to get your additional bonus percentage.

                        Also the free half point feature needs to be activated by our staff it does not happen automatic this is something you must request and the feature will be implemented to your account.

                        We do allow players from Kentucky I just sent a ticket to IT regarding the state not being in our dropdown menu at the time of signup , feel free to sign up under another state and just inform us of the change and we will modify the information from our backend.

                        Have a great day,


                        Jon

                            Jon I think if Betislands put the bonus and half point activation in writing on the sight in would save you lots of hassle. That being said you guys are getting my vote for best offshore book of the year! Nice to have competent people running an offshore for a change.

                              i still don't understand the rollover, seems like it will take 4 years to do that. Wish i never took it. Had intentions of depositing 200, winning 200 and withdraw 200, or something close to that

                                TT, what don't you understand? If you are betting $10 a game it may take awhile.

                                    i can honestly say i have been playing offshore for 7 years now and this is the best book I have played at. I only played at betjam and got good customer service there, but nothing to the level of this. If i need something jon,ryan,ben, and my girl ashley goes out of their way to help me. The other day i was frustrated because i lost every bet i put in and was chating with ryan what kind of crap day it was and he gave me a 25 dollar freeplay. Jon has helped my limits and helped me when it comes to deposits. I feel like i get one on one service here. When i play at heritage or 5dimes i feel like just another number, but these guys know me by name (which probably is a bad thing ). This is a A+ book. For me they have a ton of betting options espically coming from betjam. I love the sat payouts. The racebook is even getting some more options. If you havent tried this book you should.

                                      I still love this place - only thing is I thought limits for football were going to be $2000 (that's what I was told earlier), and they are still $1000. Is this true for everyone? It would be rather helpful if they were $2000 as I thought they were going to be!

                                            so why take the bonus? did you really think u were going to get a 100% match bonus and walk away with it after a few games?

                                              Hi Bubba,

                                              Hope all is well you can find our hour of operations posted here.



                                              Also as a quick reminder we left the 100% freeplay bonus running until Monday.

                                              Cheers !

                                              Jon

                                                          Jon, how much time does your customers have to fill a second leg of an open teaser? I can't seem to find this info listed under your rules and regulations. Thanks.

                                                              every think of stopping after losing the first 5?
                                                              Also it doesnt count for your rollover so why play? you were complaning it was going take you forever on your rollover so why not focus on that

                                                                        Thanks for choosing Betislands. Indeed the 100% bonus is available until I promote it is expired we will continue to run it the rest of the week , please contact me if you wish to get your additional bonus percentage.

                                                                        Also the free half point feature needs to be activated by our staff it does not happen automatic this is something you must request and the feature will be implemented to your account.

                                                                        We do allow players from Kentucky I just sent a ticket to IT regarding the state not being in our dropdown menu at the time of signup , feel free to sign up under another state and just inform us of the change and we will modify the information from our backend.

                                                                        Have a great day,
