Default How is BETED upgraded?

How is Beted upgraded? This is a book that shows you the door when your down money. They also try to make you jump thru hoops to withdraw your funds. I was honestly thinking for the last 2 months or so that a DOWNGRADE was coming. I certainly didn't think that a Upgrade was on its way. WOW.
Maybe SBR has a ton of positive feedback, but my personal expierence was terrible and would never go back to the book. Pisspoor CS was just the topper. To each their own.

I have nothing to do with the grading here at all. However, I do know that BetFred did just sink a whole bunch of money back into there operation for improvements a few months ago. So my guess was factored into the recent upgrade.

I haven't had any problems with them at all..... Love the echeck for withdrawing, one of the more reliable payment methods.

Yes they are... My apologies

I did miss today upgrade of "betEd" on the newswire. I just remember reading that "betFred" was recently upgraded as well not too long ago (hence my original post)

As far as the "BetEd" upgrade goes. I have no clue about it, because I didn't see that one coming.

Here is a copy and paste from the SBR homepage:

BetEd raised from C+ to B-,

Is this a typo?


Thanks.

Apparently it's not a typo AP. I just didn't see they were upgraded today was all, and thought you were referring to betfred.

Any response here? This seems like a bit of a strange upgrade to me as well. Seems to be a lot of complaints- I suppose they all get resolved pretty reasonably though?

NG,

BetEd has been trying to broaden their horizons in order to boost business (hence their recent rule changes), while in turn trying to listen to what their players want. In fact just recently they did change teaser rules after SBR member did complain about them. They also are considering raising their online limits, but I haven't heard anything as of yet on that front.

The one thing that I personally don't care for, however I do understand the move was the new implementing of the dual lines policy they are using right now.

The only real controversial complaint levied against them recently was the 19K SGC one.
