Don't do it. Look at the banners at the top of the page. Those are A rated books. Thats where you play. BetUs mailers make great toilet paper and drink coasters. Thats it.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum sir

BetUS has had there share of problems over the years in regards to slow pays, confiscations, ect, ect. My advice would be to play at an A rated book to avoid those types of hassles.

FWIW: From what I can tell. BetUS has improved a little bit when it comes to payouts

I remember I signed up there a few years back because I liked the bonus. Went to play the bonus and found out No parlays No straights over -150. What a joke.

talk to Scotty at BET JM. explain about the other family member and he will still let you have an account. you might still get the bonus also. the CS is great there. that rule is just there for the bonus scammers!

I honestly think BetUS is safe as long as your balance doesnt get into 5 figures, but there are too many other options out there that are all around better books

they are crooks ....stay away at all costs
if everyone would avoid the bad books it will hurt there business and hopefully one day would fold
the more people stick with the A rated books the better for all of us in the industry

Hi Jacey,

Unless you're leaving out a couple of zeros, they'll pay you that amount. I would just advise to not play there regularly for anything more than a couple hundred bucks at a time to avoid hassle.

Well, the fee is $50 for checks sent by courier, so you'd want to take out a bit more than that. But I don't see any other limits as far as minimum payouts go, I'd venture to guess nobody would w/d $60 for a $10 profit, so I'd say $100+.

try to get up 400-500 and then try. 50 fee is worth it since you made it on a free play. dont get up more than 5000 cause then you have a larger shot at getting stiffed(might happen anyway)

meant to say 500, not 5000. they will give you a tough time anyway, but its worth the shot. You should call them up and ask if they have any free withdrawals. just to feel them out.

They pay a lot quicker now and with much less hassle. You only have to wait about 6 weeks instead of 3 months and only have to make 15 useless phone calls (to someone who you can barely understand)instead of 20.

PS-the $50 withdrawal fee is a joke, they will pay you with a personal check, not a bank check as promised. It will come by an unknown carrier, usually not the one advertised.

PS II- Their new software sucks.

Anyone depositing there deserves what they get after all the warnings in various forums.

yeah there new software blows . My friend plays with them and actually gets pretty fast payouts for BETUS (5-14 days )but he is small player the most he has cashed out is around $900. I took me months to recieve my $1700 dolars they owed me . Dont use them anymore , but i still want the swimsuit calendar and DVD.
