I wonder how safe they are.. Sent 500 bucks got it to 5g's... hit a few nice parlays.. From what I have read they are pretty good. I just hate having all $ in one book...

I doubt about them. They are not so good with withdrawals. They like deposits

They offer same day cash withdrawals up to 850. Fee is a bit steep but I don't know any other book that does that.

Moonbeam do you know of anyone who has been stiffed by BetPhoenix? Why do you doubt them?

Normally I always deposit at BP- I deposited a lot of money and I lose.

But one day I asked for a withdrawal via moneybookers. They need 4 working days to send me the max. amount which is 2700 Euro via moneybookers.

So their "7days period" for withdrawals also means you have to wait 11 days.

I dont know why, but I donīt trust them.

I am a big BP fan and always pimp them but they gave me the shitty end of the stick today and screwed me on a hand ticket wager. My account manager knows I won but is holdint the ticket until Richard gets back from London to credit my winnings. I amk a little pissed but still like the book.

Bet Phoenix stopped doing transfers with Matchbook because they knew they would have a mass exodus after they went to full juice. When they made the announcement they said they were in the process of getting other major sportsbooks to do book to book transfers with. Never materialized.

Hey Midnight -- I was in a similar situation...deposited 5 hundo and got lucky with a few parlays...turned that into $27K in about 1 week. They were really good about same day payouts...the problem is that you can only take out $4k max a week, regardless of the payout method. I'm an idiot...instead of not touching my winnings and slowly withdrawing, I took out about $4k that first week without a problem but then lost a substantial portion of my bankroll in wagering....I wish I got lucky in another sportsbook where I could have withdrew a larger portion and wasn't tempted to risk more of my winnings.
