    Default Some questions I have regarding Bookmaker

    • This 25% bonus is for New accounts or Any accounts?
    • What is the rollover for this bonus?
    • I have heard BookMaker offering 1 free withdraw per month. Through which method?

    BookMaker's lines come out much earlier than most, which is why I am considering them over Greek/WSEX. I was always leary of them once CRIS stopped accepting US players, but I have not heard any complaints regarding BookMaker so I am going to assume the same customer service and payout reputation is still CRIS quality.

    Thanks in advance.

    austin,

    good to see you coming around to the darkside bro...lol...exactly the reason I'll be posting up with them as well...

    ok, it's a 25% free play bonus for people that receive these post cards (although they offer an every day, non promotional 20% freeplay bonus)...rollover is five times...the free withdrawal method is via regular mail...unfortunately, we've yet to receive reports as to how long it takes from the time you request the check to the time it takes to get to your doorstep, because this is a fairly new payout method...and yes on both accounts to your last statements...

    bookmaker cold called me everyday for the last 2 weeks.
    I finally told them to stop calling.

    I don't see what so great about regular snail mail withdraw.

    horrible odds, spamming via phone and email, limited payout options, and the cheapest book of the "top 20" out there.

    I talked to CS at Bookmaker and they told me to get 25% bonus you must transfer money from www.depositnow.com which is hard to do.

    If you know how, please post.

    Thanks

    Right. CRIS books are important for early hits. If you are playing halftimes and especially half time MLs they are a must.

    There is going to be a lot of unfamiliar methods right now. Hopefully someone has checked it out. I'm going to see what I can find out too.

    yeah, I just got off the phone with them as well and said that you can deposit money via ********** as well and receive the 25% free play bonus, so long as you have the bonus code...

    I've never deposited via ********** before, it's pretty easy to do isn't it? I've heard it's even less hassle than **...

    to me, I'm willing to look past some of bookmaker's faults (telemarketing, average CS, etc.) for two main reasons: 1. I know I won't have to worry about getting paid (which you can't say for 99% of the books out there right now) and 2. They have early lines in both college football and college basketball, and for the most part, the only I'm willing to pay -110 for a bet is right when the lines come out...

    they will be one of the four books I have money with as of Monday morning (with matchbook, betjamaica and legendz being the other 3)...

    pags - if you could only have 2 books and Matchbook is one of them, what would your other choice be?

    hmmm...hate to say it, but probably bookmaker (with betjamaica being a very close second)...if betjam got their lines up as early as bookmaker, I'd make them second in a heartbeat-'cause they are a better overall run book that bookmaker...but at this point, it'd be bookmaker...

    ok..I know its tough and I know they both pay....its the CS that I think seperates Greek from Bookmaker....not that BM has bad CS, Greek just seems a bit friendlier....WSEX seems as though they don't have any.

    Pags, ** isn't hard but they ask alot of questions. Tell them you know the party your sending the money to and make up replys to other questions on the fly. Bookmaker called me 3 hours ago and asked if i was going to play foots this year and I told them I already had bets on on foots and the gave me a 150.00 free play. What the hell,ha?

    must depend on where you send from. At my local grocery store, they don't ask anything.

    did you do person to person or expresspayment? I had to do both because one book took the express[ which is one hell of a lot easier with no questions] and the other one person to person where you have to talk to a ** operater. Both went through and my accounts were funded withend the hour. Don't know why one did it one way and the other did it person to person, just know they're different.

    By the way ********** deals in cash or DC only.
