Any recent complaints about this shop? I had the opportunity to spend a day with them in montreal.
It's important to read the rules when signing up. I think they are solid. We shall see![]()

this is about as recent as i can find anything on them AK. and, it was roughly about a month ago:

SBR Bill Dozer reports: BetOnUSA (SBR rating D-) slow-paying customer owed $4,700. The player’s first payout request was in the form of a check that had bounced. The player is also waiting for a Neteller payout for over a week. BetonUSA complaints have been on the rise since the start of football season. The book has refused to pay bettors who have won funds from promotional accounts. A player who deposited $1,000 is being stiffed $1,500 in football winnings.

Based on bigboydan's post I'd say that betonusa would fit in excellently with the other books on your site, AK.

I think Pinnacle is safe in the top spot for now.
Let's see how AK's new friends do up to and a bit past the Superbowl.

Damia: what amount are you inquiring about?
you: 200 on the 30th
you: 100 on the 1st of oct
Damia: that was sent out on the 7th, so it takes 7 to 10 business days 9not including weekends)
you: really, seems like a long time...I thought they would be processed in 2 days >?
you: 7 to 10 days from the 7th?
Damia: yes

John you know financially they are a top 5Originally Posted by SBR_John
You know this buddy.
People dont follow rules plain and simple.
If you want a bonus and rules say 9X you do 9X not 3 and complain about it.

My new top 5
Pinnacle
Skybook
RichcoastSports
betcris
BetonuSA
SBR Founder Join Date: 8/10/2005
Pretty sad top 5 there AK. Even you can do better.
WSEX? Greek? Canbet? 5dimes? These are all better options than "Betonusa". Richcoast is new and unproven.
Beware rogue books and rogue shills.

SBR encourages players to only play at books rated B and higher.

Quite right - people know exactly what you're talking about. You're pimping sub-standard books for your own financial gain. I don't think anyone here is in any doubt of that.Originally Posted by AK

AK, is Damia still there? Does it still take "7 to 10 business days" to get a payout?

SBR Bill Dozer reports: BetOnUSA(SBR rating D-) offering to Fedex new checks to players whose initial check has bounced. Players must fax the first check to BetonUSA at 1-416-850-9602 and then confirm it was received by calling customer service at 1-866-238-6687. Over 100 players from BetonUSA, as well as clients with other sportsbooks have been affected by this check processor issue. BetonUSA is now using citcom\**\{primapin to process payouts by check.

good to hear these guys are trying to clean things up...
SBR Founder Join Date: 8/18/2005
How kind of BetonUSA to offer to send out real checks (hopefully) as compensation for the fake checks they sent out earlier!
SBR Founder Join Date: 12/16/2005
One of the owners told me he is out $500,000 and just has to hope the processor recredits their merchant account. Millennium also had a check issue but they recredited player accounts right away.
This isn't the first time the books took a hit for their processor. A lot of sportsbooks lost a lot of bread when PayManager went down and there was the infamous Securebuxx.
