Default BetUs (SBR rating D-)

SBR Bill Dozer reports: BetUs (SBR rating D-) unwilling to clear $25,000 debt to player. The sportsbook agreed to discuss two claims from players who were cheated out of their funds. These discussions resulted in one player receiving a five figure balance (reported on 6/30/05) and created hope for a 2nd player, whose dispute dates back three years. BetUs’ argument was that this case was mediated by The Shrink, formerly of TheRX, and that the player had agreed to the result of mediation. The player described a hostage situation where he was forced to agree to a deal in order to receive what was almost 2/3rds of his balance. SBR has contacted The Shrink who stated “ [i] thought that I got the max for player that I could” and went on to say that the player deserved the remainder of his funds. SBR has reviewed this case in detail and agrees that BetUS clearly owes the player the remainder of the account balance, totaling $25,000.

It's an interesting battle...they seem to be trying to position themselves to go mass market...but they havne't figured out that the way to move on is to make amends so the ghosts of seasons past will let them move on.

This is another reason why to throw away all of magazines you get in the mail. BetUS is always one of the main sponsors.

Difficult to call for a lot of people who don't know any better. They see an ad in a gambling magazine and they're tempted. They then go to what they think is a reputable portal like MW who recommends them.

They deposit, they get screwed.

Personally I think that anyone who promotes these shit joints online should get as much abuse as the books themselves.
