Just wanted too add I requested that small payment. I was approved by security. And recieved it fairly quickly . So it been very well with tham again for a10 year period. Its would nice too see them come throgh again I only ussaly ask for a small change when I am in a litle crunch myself. Either missing work from sicknes etc. So Kudo's for SIA for now and the last 10 years ive been with them . And look fowrd too still writing a full reviews at the end of the season. Again it seems if you a recreational players who just keeps one account and bascially play by the rules. (the brother or father betting in your account seems bizarre still too me). This and intertops are the place too be. In my opinion. Thanx guysfor imput. And look too open up a small account with BetJamica in the near future, Stay Well
n good luck
Carl

Echo all the statements here. I started at SIA in early 2006, when I had hit them for about $10k they collared me to $50 limits. No problems getting my money.

Since then I have used them when trying out some of my experiments and theories with <$50 bets. Again, never any problems.

You'd think if they did not want big winners they'd stop posting so many beatable lines.

Wow you guys scared me straight. I had 8K at Sports Interaction which I immediately withdrew after seeing all these posts about Sports Interaction. They said it would be available within 24-48 hours but then they wanted ids and bills. I had to call them four times and finally a week later I get my money. Extremely happy and lucky to get my money. Lol only reason I liked betting there was they have very beatable lines but terrible payout.

I'm not sure how this thread would scare you, its practically all positive feedback in regard to payouts.

**fiveteamer** · 12-03-08, 03:49 PM

Are the lines slow moving? What makes them so beatable?

Anyways, anyone have a time frame as far as a check within Canada is taking with these guys?

I've only ever experienced a "slow pay" from one book I have had accounts with, Sportsinteraction was the book.

What was frustrating was dealing with SIA CS reps that had me repeat my story every time I called to complain about not getting paid, their standard response was "our records show you HAVE been paid." They were unwilling to do anything, once I contacted Dozer SIA seemed to be alot more helpful and courteous to me.

I did get paid and SIA gave me $100 free play with no rollover for both my sports and poker accounts.

They have since closed my account. I played at SIA because they claimed to be licensed in Canada and it was before I knew about SBR.

VirtWallet

Anyone have issues with VirtWallet? I submitted a W/D request since 1/20 and still have not received it. I have tried 4 times now and they keep saying its their banks mistake. So Frustrated don't know what to do.

**Bill Dozer** · 02-26-09, 10:49 AM

ponca,

SIA tells us they would like to look into your account. Can you send in your account ID? Help@SportsbookReview.com.

**ponca23** · 02-27-09, 10:53 PM

I've actually been in contact with Accounting Escalations at Sports Interaction. VirtWallet advised him that they have given me a provisional credit for me to withdrawl again like they did some kind of favor for me, what they left out is that it is the 3rd provisional credit they have provided me for the 4th attempt at a withdrawl. I tried to send the money to Sports Interaction, but was unable to as their website does not have the options available as thier instructions state. I had no choice but to try to make another withdrawl again so now I have to wait another 3-5 business days. Its just very frustrating because I won this money since Jan 18th and tried to withdrawl it right away but have been unable to. My account is verified with VirtWallet so I am not sure what the problem is. They keep saying they are working on it but I cannot understand why this keeps happening. Plus they keep telling me they're giving me a provisional credit and also $3 so I don't get charged for the withdrawl like they're doing me some kind of favor which actually pisses me off even more. Just wanted to see if anyone else is having this many issues with them and if there is an resolution??

$3,000 = Excessive Winnings?!?!

I joined two-three weeks ago, and have made about 90 bets in that time in the $200 to $500 range. I've been pretty lucky the last couple days, winning about $3,000 (I am up ~$3,000 on the account).

This morning they cut my limits to 10%, and responded to my inquiry with this letter:

Unfortunately, we have come to the conclusion that, as a business decision, we must now decrease your bet limits to 10% due to questionable excessive winnings for a recreational sportsbook account. This is part of our random continued security and fraud protection regarding online gaming practices.

It has been determined by Sports Interaction Management that your earnings with us are now approaching a limited allowable income on an account. As such, we have reduced your limits. Please take note that this decision is final on behalf of Sports Interaction Management.

THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS and they practically imply that I'm cheating by calling my winnings "questionable." They barely want to give me a chance to lose it back!

Looks like they're getting very nervous and are becoming quick to ban anyone who does not prove themselves to be a (VERY consistent) loser!

**LMAOFISH** · 03-08-09, 06:49 PM

Standard, usually they let you win about 10k though.

I know, I figured I could at least win a little before getting shut down. But the equivalent of 5-6 bets over 90 bets? I think I was 45-39-4. That's a lifetime winner and a grounds to shut them down?

**Peep** · 03-08-09, 11:14 PM

Depends on whether or not you are betting line moves too. Most books take you beating them to a number change quite seriously.

**Thremp** · 03-09-09, 03:43 AM

jjgold and Cowley speak the truth. BBD is way off with his opinion. SIA is quite solid.

You are just the latest of many who have recieved this SIA email. It's just the way they do things, but I always find it quite humorous that people's winnings are described as "questionable" in every single case.

As to the original poster's question, SIA are a very, very small time book, not that there's anything wrong with that as George Costanza would say. If that's all one needs, then they probably fit the bill. I don't know how things are run there now, but based on past history and my own experiences with them, the D+ rating is spot on. There are a multitude of better sportsbook options, that's for damn sure.

**fiveteamer** · 03-09-09, 09:38 AM

pretty much every guy who has made it has crushed this book.

**knicknut** · 04-08-09, 09:56 AM

has anyone received a cashout from these guys lately?

**AMBlai01** · 04-08-09, 10:02 AM

I did just 2 weeks ago...Check came in the mail in 8-10 business days just as they promised....I have had only positive experiences with them....

They shade the shit out of every obvious Joe Public play - a total idiot can make money there by making contrarian plays. As an example, close to gametime last night, the whole world had a total of 214 on the Lakers game, while SIA had 215.5. Same thing for the second half - Pinny had 105/105.5, SIA 106.5.

Mind you, sound money management/staking strategy is still required. That parlay you saw the other day (which hit, btw) was part of that. I also had individual bets on the same 3 plays, at better-than-consensus prices.

**fiveteamer** · 04-08-09, 10:08 AM

congrats on the score Matty

True. SIA is responsible for my first contact with SBR and Bill Dozer - he helped me get paid by them back in 2002 or 2003. Quite the painful experience with the useless people they had doing CS.

They seem to have improved though. I asked for a couple of Instadebit withdrawals over the last few months and they were processed in ~24 hours every time.

I used an E-Wallet when I did my withdrawal (i.e. not Debit Card/Credit Card/Money Gram/Western Union/Bank Transfer).

Gee, maybe I'll give them another try, seeing as you give such an honest and unbiased opinion.

Things you forgot to add:

*They're the best book ever, and I mean forever ever!
*They really will be your bestest friends when you deposit!
*Jasmin at CS gives free blowjobs to first 50 new customers!

No I am not. You are. I am not a big contributor to the SBR forum (I post mainly on MSE/RP/TGT - no others), but I am improving my presence here, slowly. You must take note when I do post as I am an honest contributor.

I do not care what others do via IM, all I have to do is tell the truth.

Thank you for your sarcasm & vulgarity, which is bound to improve your worthiness & profile. I do not care if you give them another try.

**20Four7** · 05-26-09, 10:03 AM

I have moved several times since I was collared, maybe I'll give them another chance. After all a book with such good lines wouldn't care if my DL # matched someone they kicked out. Now to find the ghost to front this operation LOL.

Never mind the honest contributors stumpage. You work on cobra, I'll work on mudcat and we'll go to the sbr bash and get drunk and cause trouble. After all I believe all 4 of us have been shown the door from SIA. Mud might still be alive there but I'm not sure about that.

They paid me out that's all I cared about.
