    Heritage is overrated! And a bit of a con...like the rest of the Books!

    Hmmm, Heritage is NOW, overrated, like I have said before!
    They treat you like royalty "because" they love your money, not you , you gullibles.
    And now, they have changed for the worst on top of all that bs.

    I am saying "they" are no different than any other Book that kisses your behind.
    The one difference is those 7cent lines, and if you are a veteran player like me, you have noticed that those lines,now, are dancing more than the "Dancing Stars" tv show?

    The con:
    That ad proclaiming "Get out of your bet at Halftime" is probably, a 50% deceiving enticement for young and dumber players that read that banner ad, and are now willing to join after seeing that ad alone!

    The big is:

    They give you ONE choice for your bet! Their choice of One game every two weeks, I believe, and ONE straight LINE WAGER only!
    So, in reality, you either take the dog or the favorite, nothing else is available.
    Not bad, but I find that ad a bit too deceiving, especially for young, anxious players that jump into the water only to find it's deeper than you thought.

    Yes, they show the rules on this "special" wager. But that too is a bit suspect, also.
    The first line of the rule read "straight wagers only!" Only the the next line shows you the rules that really hit home.

    Their customer service:
    I had a major run-in with one of their, only a depositing agent, I thought?
    This guy I'll call M, M for a reason, was a horses-ass to me.

    He will lie and try to deny it, I would bet? And, yes, there have been a few SBR members that will, and have taken his side!
    Hah!
    I was the victim. I was the client. I was the truthful witness.
    The member fan's that did support him, in my mind, are under suspicion of being "helpers" of Heritage. Meaning, there's some financial aid , most likely, coming their way, such as recommending new clients to Heritage?
    So chances are, they are blinded by prejudices, or just plain bs'ers!
    This guy should have been fired! I would have fired him on the spot if I was his boss and had witnessed the conversation. And yes, I did report him to his superior. A man named Eddy.

    Want to bet he's still employed there, and lied about the rift between him and I?

    That's it folks. Just letting off some honest steam and telling you that Heritage is very close to being just another "typical" Book. Some enticements, but not great ones! {My opinion!}

    Wow......A business is treating you like royalty because they care about making money?....criminals. Actually it's called Business101. Your complaining because they only let you cancel one losing wager every 2 weeks? I can see your point since all the other books combined let you do this a total of.....never. I really hate when they give you 100% match up to $3000 on deposits too. That really irks me!

    Not really a valid point since you can't just "join" Heritage. By invitation only.

    No, not exactly!
    They have a special...and I say it's overrated, plus, the ad is terribly flawed.
    And, are those specials always on "junk" games?
    I suggested that they correct the ad to say 'get out of your "side-bets" at halftime,' but see if they change it?
    95% chance, they will not! And the why, yes, that bothers me.
    The 7% juice lines are what makes them above average. Can everyone get that 7%? I don't know.

    I would say they have declined into a better than average "large" Book, from the "top" Book, they were a year ago.
    Okay, that's business. Life evolves, same thing.

    And the insulting M guy [ see I don't forget!], is still there, right?

    What's this about a 100% match? That's a new one on me.
    You mean for "new" clients only?

    And inviting players, only?
    Not buying that one either.
    Need that one explained in detail?

    Yes, to be fair, I did remove the WAY overrated word!
    Still, part con, like almost all Books! [or is it all?]

    Read the details and you will see what I mean.

    Change that flawed ad and I will raise their bar up a notch.

    Heritage is by far and away the most solid place Ive ever played with. Thier cust service to top notch. And how can anyone complain about the "get out of your bet at halftime"?

    Also, I did a payout for $3000 about a month ago and the check showed up at my work the next day.

    About 2 weeks later I went to deposit $500 and was told that I qualified for a 100% cash bonus (even after a payout). What a deal!!!

    Then after I lost that and called up to reload again, they told me that I was also part of some sort of "2nd chance promo" where they were putting the deposit amount back in my acct with a 12x rollover (basically saving me another deposit).

    How anyone can complain about this shop is beyond me

    Hmmm, I can make an educated guess Mr. Poker?

    Like almost all Books [that would do this], figure on getting all "their" money back, or, some more of your money?
    And, okay, that's business!
    But, it is strictly business! Nothing personal going on there Mr. Poker. If you don't understand it now, you will somewhere down that long betting road.

    And, once again, people keep ,practically, calling me a lair?
    Mr. Poker needs to read the first post and let it sink into his, most likely, young noggin?

    My last dep. at Heritage, I am pretty sure, had a 20% bonus.
    Twice in a row , I think?

    I am a client at Heritage. And have yet to be a sucker there. Maybe that is why we are seeing a double-standard?

    This is a double-standard, correct?

    Further more, I complained about the manner in which their ad reads.

    If you got a problem with Heritage, then leave. You'll get your check in one to two days-- not bad for an "overrated Book". Don't let the door hit your ungrateful ass on the way out.

    Thanks asho, I see you have no problem there? Are you a kisser?
    And, being a extremely honest individual, I do not respect cons of any sort.
    You have over reacted like many of your comrades, also, you have not had my personal experience with one of their agents.
    So your opinion means very little here.

    My opinion's might even help an asho like you down the road? Enlighten yourself.
    Are you one of the 100% matches, sweetie?

    After 1 year of playing there almost daily Heritage just moved all my lines from -107 to -108. What did I do to deserve such punishment? After all the free money do they now hate me?

    With the 108 line program comes better parlay odds. A two teamer gets 14/5 (+280) odds, 3 teams are at 6.5 to 1. Not a bad trade-off IMO.

    i take up for the player 99 percent of the time but books like sportsbook,wsex,betus and the shit books like esb,and betonsports that just took the money and run.to me you dont have much of a complaint based on the practices of the books i named before.

    Not fair to complain about my opinion on Heritage being a Book, without recognizing the lousy employee run-in I had.
    That also reflects on Heritage's image too, Mr. Tarheel!
    Let's get this straight discriminating readers, I still have them rated a good Book, nothing better than that.

    Last year, yes, I had them rated much higher!

    They advertise that "special" like a side-show in a carnival!

    They need to be more professional.

    Lets see they gave me free $500 to sign up no deposit required - on my first 2,000 deposit they matched it in cash 100% 2K max, 10x rollover, so I got $4500. If I lose the 2K no matter how long they replace it for free. Two get out of bet at 1/2 time games (500 max) so far made $500 on 1 game bailed out on the other. Made a $250 free play on Blackjack tourney last week. 7% juice. The facts speak for themselves, yes I like Heritage.

    Thanks - I actually got an email from Heritage explaining this and saying some accounts were moved to -108 in error due to a system upgrade. I don't parlay much so I would rather have -107 and they retro'd my current bets

    Heritage has been great to me. Assume they got my info from Pinny. I have lost money there which is great because it means I'm winning at Matchbook. Best possible scenario for me. Am probably down 10K there so always get a 30% fp reload. Have had a few 50 or 100% matches as well.

    Yes, I understand that they "were" about the best. No anymore. [my opinion]

    I'm looking at a large postcard ad from Heritage right now that came in my mail.

    It reads, quote, " Get out of your BET at halftime."

    1. Twice a month we select a game where you have the option of canceling your BET "for-free" at the half if you are losing.

    Guys and girls, this is a good Book, but why such a deceptive ad?
    I would say greed, is the correct answer? Too greedy to show the huge catch involved, like "straight wagers on sides only!"
    Okay, children, still a free shot, but deceptive also! [Are they enticing new clients?]

    It's simple! Heritage needs to be more professional!
    Here is how a professional Book should have printed that ad:

    GET OUT OF YOUR "SIDE-WAGER" AT HALFTIME

    Now, do any of you foaming from the mouth Heritage fan's see anything "wrong" with the ad changed?

    Do you see anything "right" about the changed ad now?

    And, yes, they have a horses-ass working as an agent, also.
    Two glaring flaws from an, otherwise, solid and sound Book!

    Fix those two flaws Heritage!
