Default BetonStars unpacking

9 times out of 10 when a book goes offline post-Super Bowl you have to assume the worst. Thanks to BoS for letting us stop by.

I personally vouch for betonstars. You are so far off it's getting real funny but will stop by time to time to read the star and enquire when I'm bored.

02.08.2006 (08:09 PM CST)
SBR Bill Dozer reports: BetonStars(SBR rating D-) phones and livechat down during office move. The migration began two days after the Super Bowl which is the most common time for a failing book to pull the plug. The fast-busy phone signal had players concerned. BetonStars has allowed SBR to visit and take pictures during the setup of their new office.
The sportsbook blames nervous clients for emptying its Neteller merchant account. One player has been waiting for a $1500 Neteller payout since the weekend. Management tells SBR that they expect to have a funded Neteller account, as well as a working phone system tomorrow

I don't care if they are up and running again. There have been too many slow pays, dry Netellers and BS excuses.

Taco- You wouldn't know if a Neteller was dry or not. You have to be able to make a withdrawal to find that out.

Remember when BoStars couldn't pay because advertisers were being paid first.

Halifax:Jay:

What ever happened to all that money that was sent from your Neteller account at the end of last year to prepay for advertising ? I don't see your banner up at any new sites.

The thread is titled UNpacking, as in unpacking their new office.
Even with illustrations, you still need someone to explain the story huh? Hang in there.

Dozer- How can anyone comprehend what you write?

un·pack ( P ) Pronunciation Key (n-pk)
v. un·packed, un·pack·ing, un·packs
v. tr.
To remove the contents of (a suitcase, for example).
To remove from a container, from packaging, or from packing.
To remove a pack from (a pack animal).

I took it the wrong way becasue you made mention that books run this time of year, they haven't paid a guy a Neteller request and they were unpacking(To remove the contents of) This still is a crap book so I misinterpreted your post.

All I have to say is that the transition has been fairly seamless for BetOnStartups. It's obviously a highend operation when they only have to go offline with no phone support for 3 or 4 days.

There's more uncertainty in their financial situation than there is in quantum physics.

I'm sure Johnny will post something accurate for us shortly so that we can play there with confidence.

Hey guys,

Well Raiders it is nice to see you have a personal vendetta here to score. I wont waste my time but you have to be just plain ignorant or stupid not to see that all players are being paid. Stick with the facts not the hype. What kind of a moron spends all this money to move after superbowl if they were so broke and shitty? Think about it. I guess at one time or another a complete thought must enter your head. If we were broke, and we split, and did not pay anyone and scammed everyone, ooops I forgot isnt that Bet on Stars?? But somehow we pay everyone move to a bigger spot and here I am front and center chatting about all of it????

As for the net teller I made it clear that we will be using it as a prime account from now on and it will be very well funded. We are just finishing up a nice first football season, sorry about not going broke guys like some people expected.... Steelers did win and we bet big on them. I only called it a $ucking lock about 10 days ago on the post. Yes the phones are down because we are moving. One of the main antennas blew up and needs to be replaced. That is the real delay. All of our phones and equipment are plugged in. The antenna is now there but needs some work done. We expect business as usual by the end of today.

In the meantime only a few clients actually closed their accounts with us because they do not play anything else than football. We have kept more than 90% of our clientel despite all the kind words from Raiders, and a few others. I dont give a sh$t what you say about us because at the end of the day I pay my players, I run a legit business, and I seem to grow into new space. I guess some of you non-supporters are just going to have to live with that. I love ignorance, its the best cover up for complete stupidity..... To all those that believe in us I appreciate all your support.


Johnny

Johnny- Why do you continue to have problems paying players on time and keeping your Neteller funded? I really don't care about you moving to a bigger place. I care about you being able to pay players. Every week you come up with another excuse for paying players late. How many are still owed from withdrawal requests? You can spew all the crap you want but the only thing I believe are your actions. You retained 90% of your clients. Does that mean you still have nine and one walked?

Johnny- Here's some of the crap that I've heard from BoStars. I can get exact quotes if you would like.

1. Our Neteller is not dry. We are waiting for the person in charge of payouts in the morning.

2. We can't pay players because we have to pay advertisers.

3. Raiders- AK has been nothing but a pleasure to work with. I trust him 100% more than I trust you.

Then you guys were bailing out people without doing background checks and offering huge bonuses yet you can't pay players on time. What would you think if you were me?

Johnny- You guys were down one weekend during the football season. Even after all this two weeks ago I said that you guys have a lot of money and that it'll take some time but that you could build up your reputation again. Then you go and pull this stunt.

I want to re-up, since Stars gave me a bail-out, but I need good lines. I get ultra-competitive lines on exchanges, will Stars have a dimeline on bases ?
