    The Greek - does this sound right?
    They just told me they have a 3x rollover on funds I transferred from another sportsbook. No bonus, just a book-to-book transfer.

    I thought maybe 1x. Is 3x right or was I talking to someone who was confused?

    I'm not bitching. I think it's great they do these at all. I have had excellent experiences with the Greek. Just checking.

      It was a 1x rollover before, however both BetJam and TheGreek did just recently change there policy on B2B transfers a few weeks ago sir.

          I just had a look and it says the rollover if you take a bonus is 4x. I think that used to be 3x and must have been increased recently as well. I could be wrong about that.

          3x RO on a book-to-book transfer with no bonus seems high. It must have to do with them trying to recover service fees. I wonder if you can pay an extra fee if you want to withdraw before that.

            They were changed because players were taking advantage of transfers.

            Not really looking to actually play at these books. Just using them for their faster withdrawals like they are a money processor.

            I don't blame them for changing the rollovers.

              Makes alotta sense if you ask me.

              If a book takes 2-3 weeks to send you your money, why would these people do that when they could just transfer to the greek or bettjm and withdraw immediately after they roll it over once by betting a college football ML at like -1000.

              Smart on there part, and doesn't overload the withdrawals for them IMO.

                The Greek told me if I make a deposit using a method other than a sportsbook transfer, then I can transfer the money out of the greek to another sportsbook after just a 1 time roll over. Does this sound right? Every time I talk to them I get a different response. Their rules are not clear, and they are not posted on their website. They also told me if I deposit with a sportsbook transfer, I have to roll it over 3 times to withdraw, regardless of the method of withdrawal, other than sending it back to the sportsbook from which it came. Does all this sound right? They have a right to have whatever rules they want, but not having them clearly stated on their website so I have to ask clerks who are confused as me is frustrating. Other than this, I like the Greek and yes they are honest and reputable.

                    You are correct, certainly not the best for baseball.

                      I transferred Jamaica to Greek about a month ago and there was no rollover at all. I figured because they were essentially the same operation. Something must have changed recently.

                          They are also not giving bonuses on moneygram, W.U, or transfers deposits.

                            Not quite true,they will not give bonus on Betjam transfer only as evidenced by the email below that I got after transferring from Betjam.

                            We sincerely apologize for the misinformation. However, signup/reload
                            bonus is not given on sportsbook transfer from BetJamaica as per the
                            manager.
                            You will receive the bonus when your Greek Account is funded using a
                            different method.

                            Again we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

                                  ** and Moneygram seem like the obvious things to offer bonuses on. Did your friend get told what deposit methods they are offering bonuses on?
