Default Sports-1?

Anyone use or heard of Sports-1? A salesman called me last week and offered me 100% bonus and -105 juice. I checked here and they are not listed. He said that they are associated with Bet Phoenix (B rating).

When I told him I could not send him $ without a rating, he gave me a $25 free play to check them out. I suggested he contact SBR and get listed.

Today, I got this e-mail: (WTF?)

We have credited $100 dollar into your wagering account, please read the
conditions below and welcome to Sports-1.

This offer is only valid for members of SBR

1. There are no restrictions on what the $100 Free Play can be used on.
2. The maximum amount that can be won off the $100 Free Play account is $1000
3. If the members account balance goes over the maximum win amount
allowed, it will be re-adjusted to $1000
4. To redeem the winnings, the player must match the balance amount in
full with a deposit.
5. This deposit can be made via any of our easy deposit methods. There
will be no additional bonus on this deposit; however we will reimburse the
player for any sending fees from $300.00 or more.
6. Before requesting a withdrawal, the player must complete the roll over
(see below). Once this is done, account funds may be withdrawn by simply
Email request or chat.
7. This promotion can not be combined with other existing offers such as
Rebates on football – soccer – horses or baccarat free plays – casino free
plays – bingo promotions et..

* Rollover example: F/P win amount + deposit amount = starting account
balance
* Sportsbook: 8 time rollover
* Casino and Baccarat: 20 time rollover
* Horses: 10 times Rollover



This offer is good for register and new member’s only one account per
name, per household, per address.

Any multiple accounts or attempts to defraud Sports-1.com in any way will
result in immediate cancellation of account(s) and possible forfeiture of
funds in said account(s).

This Promotion is valid from the 28th of September to 30th of October
until 11 pm ET.



Best Regards

Here is a thread where we have discussed Sports-1 before sir. However, the more I search for info about Sports-1 the more I read that they are part of the BetPhoenix. Let me do some more research first before confirming that to be the case.

Default Double Asian

At the present time we do not offer the alternative line or as you call it Double Asia due to some limitations on our software. However very soon perhaps less than 2 weeks we are upgrading our software and yes we will have more products to offer such is the case of alternatives lines Asian and regular for most of our games.

We cater to a large wagering community in Europe as well as Asia so we must be able to supply the product. We will also be offering other unique wagering options in tennis, formula1 ans soccer.

I highly doubt he is going to be stiffed. I like that he is holding off contacting the guy. He wants to see how fast they are paying without being assisted or having it pushed through.

Since they are associated with BetPhoenix I am sure he will have his money very soon.

I would not join www.sports-1.com if I was you guys. There are plently of better sportsbooks out there. I requested a payout 4 days ago and the money was never taken out of my account still tonight. Im not saying it should be sent to me but it definately should of been out of my account within a day. All of there live agents have gave me the run around the best 4 days. P.S. They can not send bank wires to us customers. Stay AwAY

I requested a wire for 4950 and a ** for 1940(which i was told took 24 hours at most) and recieved neither. I also had 12 people from my work who were all going to join the site since I liked it so much till this payout problem so there going to lose alot of business. I emailed franco but unless he can make things right im done with the site. I will keep you updated

Really? Seems silly to me. Could be a little glitch going on that needs some prompting. Could be some human error involved. These books are not always well oiled machines.

I'd give them a call and see what's going on.

UCBearcats,

Sports-1 does normally handle their own requests. I am assisting with their authority here.

In this case Sports-1 is looking to refund your CC charges first. This is based on you expressing the option to charge back against the cards a method of refund. That being said, we will refund cards first, and then pay any difference in cash the same day as the refunds can be credited.

It has also come to my attention that you played the remaining funds in the casino leaving a current balance of 14 dollars. That being said, we will also still look to refund the cards for the full amount regardless of that.

Please contact me if necessary Mon morning for further information. I am also open to audit via SBR mods on this issue for the sake of transparency here. I hope this information is helpful.

Regards,

Richard
