Never had dealings with them personally I'm relieved to say, but from what I have read here and elsewhere "English Sport Betting" appears to be the cream of the crop, in terms of scum. Think they became Telebet or something like that.....

i'll second the top turf. Had account there in the mid 90's, spoke to the same girl in customer service for weeks trying to get a payout. one day i called and she tried to tell me her name was different even though i had spoken to her for the last several weeks. eventually got a small payout from them and then they disappeared.

That's an all star worst of the worst. There are others.
All of the places above would stiff you to your face and tell you you were out of luck.

ESB/Telebet has to be the longest running scam. There were lots of disappearing acts but these guys kept it going for years. Stealing was an art for them.
In terms of actual books that cheated from a wagering standpoint, JC has an all star cast. Add WorldWager.

Aces Gold went out of business but was a great book for 5+ years. SBG only stiffs guys with 5 figure balances. Alladins Gold and BoS went out of business.
BetUS hmm... they certainly have ripped off players mainly big players but they have been better under Kevin King the last 2+ years.
Tej's Pyramid and Scores were bad. But some players got paid.
Luckys is still my vote. they were big, run by jeff pearson and did not have a payout dept. None was needed.
