Bizzle to be quite honest with you maybe in the future the horse racing volume has gone down dramatically over the last few years offshore , if someone in specific wants more tracks I could arrange that but adding man power and extra to a platform that really is not even 30% of what it was 6 years ago does not seem like a sound move from a booking point of view for me at this time.

#109betisland sounds like easystreet to me. once easystreet had the cory1111 problem betisland started to popup. one of the rep from betisland said if you start to find your edge, they will limit you before you pass your rollover. their mlb lines are crap compare to the A+ books lines. best of lucky to everyoneComment -

Thanks for your feedback .
We have no relationship at all with Easystreet, before betislands I managed and owned Wagerchief.com. SBR can confirm this if you read the news report.
In all my years of dealing with players here on this board I have not once limited someone to low limits when their rollover is in the thousands , I find that unethical and I do not conduct my shop that way.
Our MLB odds are pretty competitive in my opinion a true dimeline up to -190 is hard to top.
All feedback is good feedback if you would like to see something in particular let me know and I might be able to help , if not always feel free to contact me.
Cheers!

#113i only hope that u're rep is scaring me after the fact that i deposited and betislands turns out to be a great book. after the easystreet experience i'm more cautious to where i deposit my funds.

#115Jon: Wanted to pass along a good word about one of your service reps--Ryan. He hooked me up with a 50% re-up bonus last week. Shortly thereafter he helped me resolve a grading error on the Indy 500 ( a driver was later moved from sixth to fifth due to the final lap crash). Very happy with the CS support at BI.Comment -

#128I am so glad, I read this thread. Joined up and talked to Ryan, a super nice guy and very informative. I have dealt with several books the last 8 years. I will admit it was a pleasure that I have never had with another book. Seem to be on the up and up!

#129sounds like every one using Bet islands really likes it. I wish them well, we can always use another solid customer service book with lots of options. I'll probably wait and see before i deposit, but its nice to hear so many good reviews of a new book.
I agree with Khamarinouofm that Bill or anyone at sbr should refrain from calling people shills when you consider how much time they have spent covering for 5dimes the last few weeks.Comment -

#135Jon, I wish you luck in your new endeavor. I actually feel better now that you are out from under the Betphoenix umbrella. I have made my first deposit today to give you a shot - and normally I don't deal with new books much, but since you have been square with me in the past; I will send a little business your way.Comment -
