My experiences with Bet Royal - Sports Handicapping, Betting & Picks

Tita · 08-30-2005, 04:56 PM

Hi everyone,

I was telling Bill about this and I decided it was a good idea to share it with the public. I was an employee at Bet Royal (which of course wasn't called Bet Royal then) few years back, and I would like to give you guys an inside scoop on how things are run. Now, I know things are somewhat better than when I worked there, but still....

As soon as the phone would ring, I would dread picking it up because I knew for a fact that it was someone asking when they were going to get their money. As soon as I heard the words, "Where is my f'ing money", I would place the customer on hold. I had no answer to give the customer since I knew for a fact that if I asked Tej if they were going to be receiving their money, the answer would be no. It got to the point, that I would put people on hold, then would go to the store to buy some lunch, smoke a cigarette, go to the bathroom, then when I would finally get back to the office, the person would still be waiting on hold. I had to use to use 3 different names, and would often "fire" one personality to be able to further delay the customer...

Every morning we would have a meeting to discuss which lucky customer would receive their money. If the customer played in the casino, then that was an automatic "no we are not paying this guy" because the theory was that if you left the money in their account they would lose it all again. If the customer was bringing their balance to zero then to Tej, that was an automatic no to paying them. He believed that if a customer was bringing their account to zero, they were closing their account, and why pay if they were closing their account. They changed the company name several times in the few months that I was there just to elude the customers. I remember talking to the same customer that they had just stiffed, telling him that "we" wouldn't treat him like the last company he was with. Little did he realize that he was talking to the same rep.

Luckily I didn't work there for very long. I couldn't take it... knowing that these people were all getting ripped off. Not to mention, that every phone call I had was a complete nightmare, and I was threatened to be killed numerous times and screamed at by every customer.

I urge people to not send their money there. People like Tej give sportsbooks and online casinos a bad reputation. Not all companies out there are like his of course and thank goodness for that.

Thanks for sharing, Tita

Tita,

Forgive me intrusion but....your post sounds bogus to me. I have been managing director of Royal Sports between August 14th 2002 and December 7th 2003.

Navtej ***** bought Royal on August 2nd 2003.....and he NEVER visited the premises (not at least until I was there)....so care to explain ?

Tita..you say you're a long time employee...if that is the case you should know me and I should know you.

I never said I was a long time employee... I said I worked there a long TIME ago. I also said that Royal Sports was not the name when I worked there. That is one of Tej's favorite games - stiff too many people - just change your company name!

Brick Tamland · 08-30-2005, 06:50 PM

What was the name of the book then? Who were the managers?

Tita · 08-30-2005, 07:03 PM

It was pyramid back then. I would rather not mention names.

jjgold · 08-30-2005, 07:12 PM

Tow worked there so I do not know how legit this story is

TOW has been around too and is an honest guy

TOW · 08-30-2005, 07:14 PM

Tita.

Thanks for your clarification. You have worked with Tej in the past but you have never worked for Royal Sports.

Tita · 08-30-2005, 07:22 PM

I apologize if the title of my thread was misleading for you. So anyone that use to bet with TNT , Derby or Pyramid just to mention a few names and is now betting with royal sports - it's the same guy behind the whole thing.

Tita · 08-30-2005, 07:25 PM

TOW - if you are the honest guy they say you are, I don't know how you can be employed by that guy.... Maybe he is trying to change things around for the better, but by the look of all the threads about how he runs a business in all the forums, my guess is that it's not going so well. And just to think of all the people that he screwed out of thousands of dollars makes my blood boil. ... I use to listen to grown men cry to me on the phone begging me for the money that was rightfully theirs.

TOW · 08-30-2005, 07:43 PM

Tita,

FYI I am not employed by Tej. That being said the title of your thread is deceiving, since your experience is related to a different venture.

Tita · 08-30-2005, 07:58 PM

Well correct me if I'm wrong...

1.) Tej owned/ran Pyramid (Grafix Softech)
2.) Pyramid didn't pay customers
3.) Tej owns or part owns BetRoyal
4.) BetRoyal has issues paying customers

SBR_John · 08-30-2005, 08:54 PM

Thanks for your post Tita. I hope you don't mind I changed the title. Your account matches other ex employees accounts of Pyramid, Scores, Royal, ect.

What do you mean? Major Wager says Royal is a very safe and secure book.

Good luck to you. If you win, you should be able to get a payout by the College Bowl Season in 2007.

BuddyBear · 08-30-2005, 10:27 PM

Thanks Tita...this is really helpful. I know for sure I'll never ever bet with Royal based on this. I've put them on my personal do not touch list.
