Betway update

**bigboydan** · 07-29-08, 11:32 AM

Thats good to news to hear Justin. Maybe there is hope for Betway to climb out of that current F rating they have.

**Justin7** · 07-29-08, 01:00 PM

F might be a bit harsh... D- might be closer, based on everything I've heard.

SBR is like keeping a video camera on a cop.

only way to keep'em honest.

I respectfully disagree with your thoughts on BetWay sir. The complaints levied against them were all very valid. Now what even made it worse was when the BetWay management team basically admitted it, but still refused to pay the players.

Betway is tackling another confiscation issue - the player got his deposit back.

We're still in a dialogue about account confiscations and bonus forfeitures in general.

I also disagree but not nearly so respectfully.

Still some may say it's a bit too harsh. I remember Betchance being upgraded because two or three players reported receiving payouts (ordered months or even years ago). F was always reserved for no-pay and outright scam books.

One should assume that if Betway's rating is F they are a deposit-only sportsbook. And I am not sure this is the case.

the problem is you only know about a book based on your own experiences, and if in some cases this does not at all reflect the experiences described at sites like sbr it does make me feel uneasy.

i have been with betway for some time, it's not the greatest book i know, but they're ok and never tried to screw me in any way. perhaps i've just been lucky, but based on my own experiences it seems an f is harsh, while other books who have ripped of certain players are somewhere at a d.
i remember reading some sbr-someone posting a while back an f-book is typically a book that steals from everybody, while a d--book (f.e. sportsbook.com etc.) typically is a book that steals from players they don't like. betway is not in general slow-pay mode right now as far as i can tell, but again, perhaps i'm just lucky.

anyway, i hope betway still has enough money and sense left they need to settle the complaints they seem to have so they can go back to being the mediocre c-book they really are.

I got paid today. It took one business day as they inform on the website.

**APK** · 08-11-08, 12:19 PM

I got paid last week as well.

Also the next day, btw.

The support from Betway is very very bad.

This load is very careful with to enjoy,
I will never play here again.

the betway F rating is just ONE of the very stupid ratings from SBR for european books.

FORGET THE SBR RATINGS FOR NEARLY EVERY EUROPEAN BOOK

SBR does not have any clue about european books (sorry for this SBR)

**Justin7** · 09-08-08, 03:01 PM

If you think they are a great book, feel free to voice your opinion. The more information everyone has, the better.

Our ratings are based only on what is reported to us.

SBR rates only the votes from "good english speakers".
But thats ok.

And No: Your ratings are NOT based only on what is reported to yours

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum

Sometimes books are really bad about not answering there emails in a prompt fashion.
