Can anyone share their experience with PartyBets? How similar to Gamebookere is it?

[BadAzz]

Software is obviously the same. Lines are not completely the same and Party seemes to be slower to move them than Gamebookers.

Party only offers USD as account currency. Also I sent a mail to Partybets customer service and asked a question about betting limits. The answer I got had nothing to do with betting limits. It sounded like somebody from poker customer service was handling my question.

The cashier is from partypoker I guess and it is not the same as Gamebookers has. Both offer Neteller and moneybookers though.

Played twice there - odds are as Gamebookers, so outside the bonus deals there's not a great incentive to switch. Payouts via Moneybookers were reasonably quickly and efficiently dealt with after an initial security verification (I had to call them, they called me back and asked security questions). No complaints.

I love Partybets! The winning is so easy, their LIVE betting is not 100% of the gamebookers yet, but they are developing it.

A little success

(and they have not cut my stakes yet)

[Bill Dozer]

Nice run Teddy. Congrats!

[Teddy_KGB]

Thanks Mr.Dozer

[Ira Wilton]

Teddy play a dog! Nice run.

[bigboydan]

Very nice run indeed Teddy

[Teddy_KGB]

That's it, Partybet cut my limits. Now I can bet 10% of the original stakes.. Partybets are so shit like gamebookers..

[Zerlinco]

I don't like to dump on a Sportsbook, but..........

My understanding is that Partybet is affiliated with Gamebookers. If so, my experience with Gamebookers was a NIGHTMARE. Would not recommend them to my worst enemy.

A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME.

I've just used partybets to get the $100 signup bonus after finding bonus code on another forum.
The sportsbook bonus is $100 matched deposit with a 6 x WR and there is also 20% deposit bonus up to a max of $100 in the casino with same code.
Up until a couple of weeks a go the bonus was only added once you had staked 6 X your initial bonus so basically you had to bet $600 of your own money before getting the $100 (which was withdrawable) so people were depositing $100 and betting that and laying it off then depositing $500 and betting that and laying it off.
But now (with a RECENT code ) once you deposit $100 they add $100 straight away.
They are also offering 100% books on certain events. I put $200 on one of these matches at 7.3 and laid it off at bf at 7.3 , winning at BF so total profit was $91.31.
They do verify your ID and telephone number though, they will ask for copy of passport etc and will verify your details over the phone on the number you reg'd with.
I wont post the code here as I'm new round here and haven't read all the rules yet and dont know if its aloud.
My dad and brother-in-law-and have dont this offer today too and code worked for them fine.
My overall opinion of partybets is fine, only thing I would say is if you are using them is to send your ID inh as soon as you sign up and there should be no holdups if you need to withdraw etc.

As I wrote, I have been limited because I won around 7000 USD in two months from Partybets, and they cut my stakes to 10% of the original. I sent several mails about my limitation, but nobody answered.

Today I sent a mail from a different mail, I did not write my name, I asked : I heard that you limit the professional players. Is it true?

30 mins later their mail arrived :

Dear Sir/ Madam,


Thank you for contacting our customer service team.


In regard to your query, please be kindly informed that it is absolutely not true that we set limits to professional players.


PartyBets is a part of PartyGaming, and as a respected company we would have never allow ourselves to limit any of our players. At our platform each player, no matter whether a professional or not, has an equal start. We do not in any way discriminate any of our customers.


We do, however, set maximum stakes for our events but these stakes are universal for all our customers. These stakes depend on the odds and the type of sport and they are individually determined for each event.


We hope that this information is comprehensive enough and we shall be looking forward to welcoming you as a new customer of ours and a part of the Party community.


Best regards,


Vanina

Dear Vitaly,
Thank you for contacting Customer Service.
The reason you did not receive the bonus offer in question is the fact that you did not use the bonus code when you made your first deposit. Please resend us the e-mail you received to inform you of the bonus offer, so that we may investigate this matter further, and if it turns out that we have made a mistake and did not provide you with the bonus code which had to be used, we will award you the bonus. If the mistake was on your end, then we will offer you a different bonus as a goodwill gesture on our side.
If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.
Thank you for choosing us as your online gaming site.
Best Regards
Kristian

Is there any fine print that i missed ?I wouldn't think that large company like that would go and screw players for $50 bucks .

Any way as it stated not a big deal for me as their site sucks .Odds on NBA and NCAA football /basketball coming out way too late just 6-7 hours prior to the game.Still can't figure out why they don't have 1st half lines on NCAA basketball not sure about NBA (they maight have them 5 min prior to the game i can't see them 9 hours prior to the 1stgame ) .Second half lines is the total mistery . I wouldn't reccomend them to any one .Check them for yourself.This is not the book, it appers to me (short expirience )they take bets when ever it's the most covinient for them (after the betting market settles down .So there is no adventages for you on the early lines,cause there is no early lines.If you ever wanna hedge your bet (at the half time ) you gonna get F****.

There will be no PARTY if you bet with them.
I open account with them without reserch .And what teap me off convinience of the " pay - pro" service they provide (wire to wire deposit /withrow from your bank account(I belive Canadians only))Not the bonus .There way to many books that will offer you $ 50 + on your first deposit.

Never had a problem, everything was great until I was limited after 3-4 months and 5k or so in winnings. I was picking off steam though, so I suppose it's warrented.

[20Four7]

I haven't been limited but I do the following:

I hit them hard for a month or so, then I take time off (or just play poker). They then usually give me a re up bonus which I then deposit hit them hard and take some time off. I find with the books that will limit taking a break from there makes you seem less intimidating.

[dvn]

Gamebookers have become part of Party Gaming, they have now the same platform, same odds.

If you send an e-mail to Gamebookers CS you might gen an answer from PartyBets CS

[Head Hunter]

Just got stiffed here big time.

I was tempted by their Bonus £100 opening offer, but not being an out and out bonus hunter I thought I'd just bet as normal, and if I qualified for a bonus all well and good.

I put 100 in and they matched it. I had a winning bet, then two losing bets, then a big winning bet and finished with two losing bets.

Now the bonus has expired unfulfilled and I fully expected to lose the bonus. But no - they've voided the big winning bet as well. Placing that bet did not take me below £100, so I can't see the justification.

All the losing bets, however - even those placed after the voided winner - are apparently perfectly valid!

[20Four7]

They have never voided a bet on me. I hit them up on moving lines sometimes and they still pay out if I win. Never had a bonus voided if I met the roll over in the time allowed. They pay out same day (within 4 to 6 hrs usually) to moneybookers. Their poker isn't the juiciest any more but it is still filled with donks. I will shortly have to take a break with them as I don't want a problem with them limiting me.
