#1192Hi Bubba,
We had a few upgrades on our main site , but the betting engine and back up website have been running without issues so your betting should have not been affected at all.
I apologize for any inconvenience.
Have a great day and good luck to all !

I has issues last night as well.
Tried to bet Oregon -16.5 last night and it kept freezing up on me and I got shut out.
Also very slow on my other plays as well. Much better today.Comment -

#1195Just started with this book this week. Great cs so far. I am disappointed in them not having some soccer leagues that i wanted to play not offered on the board
for example England league one and two on saturday
no live betting at all is kind of a bummer but not that big of a deal I guess.

#1199site has been slow
i called in most of my bets this weekend with the site being so slow.
maybe its a browser issue but all my other books seem to be working ok.
also notified them of taking down the WSOP odds that they had listed not to come down until nov 8th
when live play started at 330 pm yesterday and they are already down to the final 3Comment -

#1201Hi Guys,Originally posted by ProfaneRealitynot that I ever win there, but there is no reason why they cant process 1 withdraw each of ** and ** per week.. they are separate processors...
Hope all is well although the are indeed separate methods we use the same processor , the rules that are in place are there for a reason and this way we are able to pay our clients promptly.
I apologize for the site being slow over the weekend , our IT has been notified and they are working on it we expect to be 100% soon.
Cheers!

#1202No complaints but a couple of suggestions.
I was told by you of a cash offer with a 3 time roll but when I called to deposit the salesman told me that he couldn't do it without your approval and he didn't know when you might be in.Took another deal but alot of people may have deposited elsewhere.
When placing a wager why can't there be a continue button at the top of screen as well as the bottom when choosing a sport?Comment -

#1204max withdrawl- i was told there is a max withdrawal per week of 5,975 (all methods combined). this needs to be clearly stated on the website. it is not. you dont want customers (like myself) to be surprised about this!Originally posted by BetislandsHi M,

#1205I know I am beating a dead horse here, but I do it because I care. It's the only thing holding you guys back. 1 p2p per week is unjustifiable. Stop with the vague processor issues. M.G. and W.U. are unrelated, even if you use the same people to send them.
Please tell me why I can send to this same processor you use, infinite times per week using my name, but for some unknown reason you can only process 1. At the absolute minimum you should be able to process 1 of each.
This, coupled with checks only going out on mondays, seems you are doing everything you can to keep money in accounts for as long as possible.Comment -

#1208I find it funny that he claims he has never not paid anyone. Hell I have never not paid anyone in my life either. I just have some debts I don't plan to pay on. That statement means nothing just like the one they make.

#1210Hi guys,
I understand banking restrictions may not be your priority but it is mine as a sportsbook in order to stay in business , yes we do have a max cashout of $6k per week to start with clients but we are always on time.
And no we do not try and and make people lose their balance in fact during the week when you request your check we remove the money instantly from their accounts and get them ready to be shipped on Monday.
US players need to understand that banking is one of the biggest challenges in the industry right now , I keep ours simple and this is why we are always on time the limits of person 2 person are there for reason , reasons I cannot start posting about on an open forum.
Yes I have never not paid anyone this is a verifiable fact and trying to argue that 5k checks in 2 to 3 business days makes me a stiff makes no sense.
Some of these restrictions will change after we go invite only but for now they will remain the same.
I will always do my best to be a valuable out for North American players and treat everyone fairly and as we speak I am working on expanding our banking , but for me it is about quality not quantity.
Have a great day guys.
Cheers!
Jon

In that case a special payout would be worked out for him since that does not happen often and honestly for any shop paying out a large win means credbility.

they don't play games when you request a payout
they remove the funds immediately.
