SBR Top-Rated Sportsbooks
Intertops using infamous stalling tactics
Never thought that I'd find a worse, decent rated sportsbook, to bodog. Bodog is last to post and uncircle lines, doesn't offer heavy favorite money lines, doesn't offer slight favorite money lines, doesn't allow point buying on point spreads with a lean, charges extremely high juice, has website down times during major action, erroneously cancels winning horsetrack wagers, has atrocious customer service, offers no comp for your play, and was founded by a Candian stock exchange swindler. Tough to be worse than all that, and still have at least a B rating by SBR.
Recently opened an account with Intertops, as I heard they're great for MLB, which is my favorite league. Figured I'd give them a try now, to get acquainted with them. Since MLB hasn't started yet this year, I don't know for sure how good they are on baseball lines. What I can tell you is for NFL, NCAAF, NBA & NCAAB they, and this pains me to say, make bodog look fabulous.
Intertops does not allow any point buying/selling. None! Want to buy a hook, a standard important aspect to sportsbetting, not offered at Intertops. Want to have the ability to wager on college halftimes, other than a few select games, most NCAAB halftimes are not offered at Intertops. Want to see the pregame show before wagering, for say an ESPN game that is scheduled for 7 PM but doesn't actually start until 7:05 PM, forget Intertops as the line is unavailable at 6:59:59. Want to parlay a halftime line with another game, not offered at Intertops. Want to be able to place wagers by phone, not offered at Intertops. Want to ask questions to their customer service, get ready to go on a goose chase as they pawn you off with the old go write an email in order to get an answer routine. They do not let you speak to someone who will answer your questions. So I write, and this is what I get in return from Intertops ...
"Regretfully, we are unable to assist you further on this matter.
Sincerely,
Keisha"
Why not just tell me that when I called? Why tell me to take the time and send an email? Service at Intertops is woeful. Their website is enormously unfriendly to its users. Would you believe, that they do not have a link that will just show your pending/open wagers? They don't, and though they comingle pending wagers with wagers placed and wagers graded, they don't show you what the potential win $ amount is on your pending wagers. Why does Intertops conceal this vital info? Who wants to manually calculate all that in order to know where they presently stand as games are concluding? On west coast games that end at like 1 AM ET, Intertops doesn't credit winnings until the morning.
Lastly, and certainly not least, I requested a measley $200 payout via ** right after the Super Bowl on Sunday Night. Today, 2 business days later, I am told the soonest I can expect to get the cash is the end of the week. Of course, they didn't guarantee or promise anything, nor will they give you a precise timeframe on what's going on with your money that you've entrusted them with holding. For all I know, they're broke, bankrupt, and I'll be lucky to see anything ever. How can Intertops, or any place you entrust your action to, not be able to tell you when you can get 2 bills much less 4+ figures?
Intertops, the worst!

and that I will have to send in 20 pieces of ID (fukin utility bill, DL, passport all kinds of shit) to get it unlocked.
Would not use them again unless this is fixed.
