I checked-out the site of fonbet and it does not look too flashy. It seems purely straightforward for betting and selections are not that much but are enough for someone new.

I also checked-out their "results" page which gave live results which are refreshed automatically every 30seconds or so.

Based on some "more than a year ago" feedback... it is a Russian site but nothing actually has been negatively said about them.

Anybody over here use them?

How are their pay-outs? (any problems, waiting time, etc?)

Most newbies might be attracted to their plain and simple site instead of the "flashier" expensive-looking ones.

Feedback regarding Fonbet would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Yes, they are a top Russian book.

Although this may not seem ideal, and perhaps they are not perfect, they sometimes offer very good lines, will not stiff you, and their payout is amongst the fastest you will find.

Thank you for the short positive review. I opened an account and it was very easy and funded already too.

I guess the problems arise when trying to withdraw (hopefully not). But so far, they seem fine.

I've read that they are the biggest sportsbook in Russia (not heard of any other ones) and maybe their being in Russia makes them "immune" to all these DOJ harassment.

Russia is a country that won't be pushed around.

I wonder if the Fonz could get a job there

And they accept e-gold (like 5Dimes) and Web$ too which, in my opinion, would be the next-gen payment systems for sportsbooks.

Although between Web$ and E-gold, Web$ is more secure and has a much stricter verification process...which makes them ideal for the sportsbook business.

I'm sure e-gold users might not agree if e-gold all of a sudden required "verification" once the doj tries to touch them or pressures them.

Hopefully, the docs I sent Moscow gets verified soon enough to start using Web$.

Cheers!

I am still far from those levels....

Where did you get that info? I think that is important to know.

What is important is if they give pay-outs as easily as it is to deposit via e-gold.

So far, it is a plain and simple site.

Yep, FonBet will cut your limits fast. One of the fastest around on that category as well.
And this information is first hand knowledge. My maximum stake around there is 25 € / match.

Thank you for the feedback. That sure is something to take into consideration.

Fonbet has been around forever, very few complaints. Even if they have higher juice might be a safe book to play at. No way they are going to cave into usa pressure.

Fonbet being in Russia is actually something to look at nowadays and the reason why I opened an account. I just hope they do pay-outs as rapidly as they take deposits. I deposited via e-gold.

And Web$ being in Russia is another reason I'm opening an account there too.

Thanks for the advise.

I actually might try Fonbet

Guy I think your safe their.
