    Default JazzSports

    Usually only negative news is posted here so I thought I'd post a positive experience.

    I was one of the few crazy ones that used OIS to fund for this football season. Most of that went to JazzSports without a problem. I wanted to get funds over to Bookmaker for college hoops so I fired up an online chat, made the transfer request (for free), and had the funds at Bookmaker in a couple minutes. You're allowed one free transfer to Pinnacle or Cris/Bookmaker per week.

    I'm keeping some funds at Jazz because they've treated me well from account creation up until now.

    Just thought Jazz deserved the mention

    Thanks for sharing your experiences with Jazz. They are truly a excellent book to play at IMO as well.

    Been with ABC for years; love their teasers. Good to know I can transfer to/and from Bookmaker; I wasn't aware of that.

    You might want to check with ABC on this, Hedgehog. They've actually had "Book transfer" as one of their withdrawal options for as long as I can recall, yet they never would allow one to do it. Bizarre, but factual. It was actually the subject of a thread a few months ago.

    http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...ht=ABC+Islands

    Perhaps they have since changed their policy and now actually allow a method that they advertise. If I follow correctly, the original poster is referring to a book-to-book form jazzsports.com, rather than ABCIslands. Same family of course, but perhaps different policies at each site.

    Good Info, Stumpage. If Jazz/ABC has fixed this transfer mess, I wonder if SBR will reinstate their B+.

    No problem Hedge. Glad to help out.....According to the old thread, Dozer notes that ABC "Plan to be able to do b2b transfers...again next week". That was written in August, so I assume they have it up and running now.

    I don't have a balance there anymore, but if you want to dig deeper into this, I would recommend you contact Harvey at ABC, as he is definitely "The Man" when it comes to that place.

    Maybe somebody else might have noticed something, but unless it's changed in the past month (which I haven't noticed). All the DPT Sports Group books have the same policies in regards to this subject Stumpage.

    The last noticeable change that I've noticed was the casino, futures, and horse racing rollovers would not be counted in bonus requirements. Other than that it's all seems to be basically the same from what I can remember off hand.

    You might want to put an asterisk beside the 'from' part of your statement ... because while ABCIslands/Jazz will allow you to transfer to Bookmaker/CRIS/DSI for free, Bookmaker/CRIS/DSI will gouge you on fees on a transfer going in the other direction (to ABCIslands/Jazz).

    The exorbitant fees that Bookmaker/CRIS/DSI charge on outgoing book-to-book transfers suck, not only for the player, but also for other bookmakers. If ABCIslands/Jazz transfer to Bookmaker/CRIS/DSI for free, but the player gets dinged $100/$200 to transfer in the other direction (out of Bookmaker/CRIS/DSI to ABCIslands/Jazz), guess which group of books is seeing a 1-directional flow of funds, and guess which other group of books is getting the shitty end of the stick ?

    Halifax: That is a raw deal for Jazz/ABC--not to mention the player! Will Bookmaker at least let you do the transfer "free" for 2500 points (like they say they do for regular withdrawals).

    Not sure. They cut me off the loyalty program a while back.

    Jazz is solid and they take pretty big bets

    I thought you were only cut off from DSI on that program, I didn't realize it extended to Cris/Bookmaker as well.
