Default Something GOOD to report:

I have an account with VIP and I use them once in a blue moon. Yesterday I receive an email saying “For your birthday this year we want to give you a present. Here is 50,000 point for you to use.” Well 50,000 points equals a free $50 wager. Pretty cool so far.

I go to my account and claim the free $50 bet with no problem. Then VIP offers me a free 3 point discount on any game for the Football Playoffs for today. Of course I make a free $50 wager for today and take a 3 point swing in my favor for -105.

Now how can you say anything bad about this? There are no strings and everything went very easy.

Good to see a book takes care of its customers once in a while.

Just thought I would share this as it seems that we very rarely hear about the Good Things Books do once in a while.

Thanks for reading and Good Luck in your wagers!!

Swain

VIP also have this nice "feature":

You get 0.5 point free on your favorite teams. They can be chosen in the account settings menu.

I liked playing at VIP, but they are quick to limit successful players. After being cut to $50 max bets I left.

Along with 5Dimes, probably the site I wish I'd been able to hang around with a bit more before they cut me off. I was at Betongames, which was in the VIP family. If I recall, they had a very nice loyalty program, one of the better ones.
