Default Wagerweb - Proven Trustworthy

This is my first post to this site and felt the need to call attention to some negative bashing of Wagerweb. Fist off, I have had an account with them for three years and have never had any problems. I do agree with some of the comments about customer service (yes it could be a little better), but beside that it has been almost flawless with regards to wagering, withdrawls and professionalism.

I have looked into other sites, the fact that Wagerweb has been there since 1997 should tell you something. 11 years in this industry (you can trust them). You may be able to receive bigger bonusses and/or higher rewards at other sites, but beleive me there are catches to every one of them.

As far as the bonus problem and wagering the freeplays on them and meeting the rollover, I have always understood it and it makes sense. If these sites didn't have strict rules in place the sharps would put each and every one of them out of business.

It is recommended by trustworthy professionals in the industry, so I take there word as well. Yes I am only a small time player compared to many, but would recommend this site over any other out there.

Answer this question. How long has Wagerweb been in business? That is really all you need to know.

Overall I would give Wagerweb 8 out of 10.

Sincerly, Mr. Roboto...

Mr. Robot, check your facts - this sportsbook is pathetic - they stole $42,000 from me - who knows how many other people they have stole from. For all we know, you are another employee of WagerWeb trying to save their almost destroyed reputation. Once they pay me the $42,000 they owe me - I will have nothing else negative to say about them.

WWS,

To be fair, you should put your dispute in context. They voided about 70 bets of yours that were past-posted.

I find it funny that WagerWebSucks has the weakest case of anyone who has had a significant complaint with them that I can remember.

At what point did he think "Maybe I should stop trying to hustle them and run with my winnings?"

I'd say they're proven, but not as trustworthy.

The fact they've been online for 10 years means nothing. Sportsbook.com has been around longer and they're the biggest crooks around.

He didn't that's why he got grabbed. Greed took over.

Justin, to be fair, the morons took all of my plays over the phone, accepted them, provided me a confirmation number and then when I wanted to cash out they told me to F*** off. You need to tell it like it is also. Granted they were past posted, but I don't control when these idiots take down their lines - I am not going into this anymore. You need to state ALL the facts if you want to bring them up.

It wasn't like betting a game on line where they had it up a minute or two after it started. You found a bug in the system where you could monitor drives and talk BS knowing that you still could get the bet in. Hats off for the nice try, but really what do you expect?
