Has anyone been paid recently from these guys? I keep getting mail from them with some offers that seem too good to be true.

They are like Pinnacle to the staff here, to the rest of reality they are a mediocre book that gives you 7-1 3team parlay odds to lure you to sign up then cuts them. You should get paid in good time so long as you don't win in their casino.

They seem ok... I might actually give them a shot...

I haven't heard of any slow pay complaints by them recently sir. Although they did do a security check on one gentlemen on a $40,000 payout, and everything went smooth once everything was verified.

Wait a second. Is these the same guys that had the problem with the $70,000 blackjack payout?

Yes, it was $40k I believe. They initially told him he was using 44 devices and they were investigating the matter. The man made a post on SBR and then it was taken care of after their "results" came in. Never heard the explanation about the 44 devices though.

I think so. He wanted 70K and got 40K. And that seemed satisfactory... I may be wrong about the details, but if true it is absurd.

If true, why did BOL not pay the other 30K?

No his balance was 40k. He had run it up to 70k but then lost some back down to 40k.
He was using this as evidence that he didnt have a "system" to beat them, as he had lost

How about the sportsbook? Do they pay on time?

I dont know I dont play there anymore
I played there for a month 2 years ago, read some problems about them on the internet and quit!

They dont work with the forum in resolving the problems so I started playing at sprtsbetting.com, same lines!

It sucks that they don't take credit cards anymore but I think they are worth a shot... I wouldn't sweat that incident too much...

katstale · 11-21-2007, 07:35 PM

They seem to be a good book. If you are a max bet online player, they will collar you after you beat them up for a few weeks.

Worst thing abt them is they hate Canadians. They won't add Moneybookers to help them out. Not sure why. Bill or John--maybe you can answer that? You seem to have a good line of communication with this book.

still waiting on the check. i have emailed and contacted live chat on more than 1 occasion and haven't been able to get tracking info either. all i've been told is that they need that information to be provided to them by their bank and that they do not have it yet. i will follow up as soon as i receive the check.

they cleared my entire account. i only had a pending payout request for $40k, which is where that number came from. the other 30k was released to me in my BOL account and was also eligible to be withdrawn. BOL did not confisicate any of my winnings or any portion of my account balance.

i'm just hoping the check will arrive sooner than later and i'm still working on having them credit me with the highroller bonuses i earned. they have credited me with $2,000 out of the $5,000 in "bonus play" money so far. i will keep the board posted.

Keep us posted on this one jokerfly.

jokerfly, you should be requesting your ENTIRE balance here. If your balance was $70K, don't only request $40K to "keep them happy", request the entire $70K plus your high roller bonus. What is the point of leaving $30K in there?
