    Theres a good reason for Globet having that D+ rating here at SBR. This book ignores it's owned rules if it's to there advantage.

    This is the main strength of the forums and the main weakness at the same time. Everyone posts their own experience/opinion.

    Please be advised that Globet (www.globet.co.uk) is rated D+ by SBR which is not good at all. D+ translates as "Poor, some risk to players funds. Poor customer service, etc."

    Here's some history of this book:
    05.13.2006 11:39 AM SBR Bill Dozer reports: Globet (SBR rating D+) choosing to confirm or cancel wagers on morning games that have already begun or concluded. The sportsbook requires that all wagers be manually confirmed by its staff before becoming official. Players who have wagered on morning events during the previous evening found that wagers may be validated only after the result is known. This process is responsible for a steady flow of negative feedback from Globet clients. Globet advises players who feel this process is unfair not to wager after business hours when wagering is out of the office. Globet has been downgraded from C- to D+ due to variety of wagering complaints.
    04.11.2006 06:27 PM SBR Bill Dozer reports: Globet(SBR rating C-) ignores its listed rule (9.2) stating that soccer matches suspended before the 90th minute will be "deemed void", graded as no action. The sportsbook has graded a player’s wager on a soccer match suspended in the 76th minute a loss, stating that the Argentinean Federation considers the match official. Players should be able to have confidence that the sportsbook’s printed rules will stand.
    From "Players review" section we can see that they'll cancel anything at will without any explanation.

    My advice would be stay away ofcourse though I have never played with them and I guess it won't be happening anytime soon. Yes, I have never supported the "play A/A+ only" policy but Globet and its D is too harsh I guess.
