BetOnline was kind enough to give me a $25 freeplay because i had not deposited so i took advantage of it thru this customer survey. So i took the $25 and placed a wager on SF Giants and under 7.5 today to win $58 and I leave for the afternoon check my phone for the score realize I win the bet come back home log on to betonline.com and see that my bet disappeared and the $25 freeplay is back in my account. I am not gonna make a big issue about this since they were kind enough to give me free money but this was the very first bet i ever placed with them and this happens. I didnt take down ticket number but I know %100 sure I confirmed the bet and the system told me how much I would win so i guess i wont be depositing with them ever because its kinda shady.

[ForgetWallStreet]

This happens to me there on a weekly basis. I can pretty much guarantee that you submitted the bet but failed to confirm it.

[Eagle1958]

In order to withdraw from the freeplay, you must first make a $100 deposit. This seems like a weird requirement.

[frankthetank]

all seems shady. they shouldnt give people free play and then ask you to deposit to receive the winnings...

[navyhawk]

got the same offer but their terms are scary if you read them

[BetOnline]

Guys

Yeah it IS a two-step process--sorry about that but eliminates the "I didn't CONFIRM my bet" discussions.

AND we do have to have onerous T&Cs on promos to protect the book. But ultmately we're fair and I'm here and as you know can bend the rules for friends at SBR if you have more than a dozen posts or so.

Get back in there with that freebet...

Cheers
Alex

[acarmelo1]

Alex is that girl working on BETONLINE?

[whocares]

figure this one, They get a b+ but seem to be having a problem with payouts over the past few months. Not sure how they still get a b+.

What is it? a B+ OR a D RATING? Glad i checked before i opened an account their.

Whocares: we are NOT BetOnline247; we are BetOnline.com and, aside from the occasional hiccup, have an EXCELLENT recent record at delivering payments as promised. Not as fast as we like but within the parameters setup and agreed with our payment processors. I don't know who those wankers are and wish I could squash their trademark infringing domain... be nice.

Acarmelo1: if she was it wouldn't matter as she'd be mine mine mine mine.... but she ain't. DO have a bevvy of dark-haired beauties on the team though--PM me since you're probably in Panama and I'll introduce you to a few, give you a tour of the place.

[moonbeam]

Thanks god you are not betonline247.
Personally, I really like betonline.
But you have to improve your deposit and withdrawal methods a lot.

[majestece]

BOL gives great bonuses, but some of their representatives on live chat saying that they dont accept Turkish customers, and some others say yes we accept Turkish customers. Very confusing.

[ThaWoj]

So do we have to deposit $100 in order to cashout winnings from the freeplay?? If so, this isn't a "free-play". I don't mind rolling over the freeplay 5x (I'd even do it 10x)? Plus the T/C's say deposit must me made within "5 days".

Can anyone clear this up e.g. is it worth messing with this?

I'm wiling to deposit $50 with something like a 2x roll over but other than that its not worth it.

I dont even care to be honest with you Ill never ever use your book again I confirmed the bet and it won i come back and no winnings and the 25 freeplay still in my acccount I know how to use sportsbooks so i got screwed thank god it was for free money

You most likely forgot to confirm the bet...this happened to me once...make sure you see the bet confirmation number.....you have to confirm it or won't be accepted...always check your pending bets too after it is made. They are legit and this is error on your side I am sure,,,,,,,,,,

[BET THE HOOK]

Man you probably didnt confirm because it has happened to me at this book too. I dont have this problem on other sites but its not a big deal.
On another note I got a lightning fast payout from BetOnline last week via ** in about 3 hours and the only time I have ever been paid that fast was from VIP.com. Good job Alex. Your book is getting alot better than a year ago but still not in the top tier of books such as BetJamaica,Bookmaker,The Greek,5Dimes, and VIP.com. Yall are however the best of all the rest which is pretty good. To join those guys all you gotta do in my opinion is start taking tennis parlays and cater to the player a bit more when we try to send money no matter what time of day or night it is. The sales team calls daily asking for deposits but when I try to send a big one they cant get it done. Not bashing you just trying to tell you what us 7 day a week players have to have. Yall are pretty solid and on the right track.

[mtneer1212]

BetOnline is potentially a very good book but will never be until they upgrade their software.

[Mikail]

Took the $25 freeplay if that is even the correct term considering you need to deposit to withdraw freeplay winnings. Anyway put it on the Eagles +160 tonight and turned it into $40 dollars. So let me get this straight I can't win more than $250 on it and I must deposit $100 to get my winnings. I don't fully understand can someone explain? Why not just make it a can't win no more than $150 then?

[thechaoz]

I have it too and took the survey but would like to know all the rules first if you could.

[kostasgr]

I connected yesterday to make a deal about the offer of sbr,50% free play.They looked shocked that there is this offer,and asking me to connect again at about 2 hours when the roll over will be changed!!!

[Fishhead]

BetOnline is potentially a very good book but will never be until they upgrade their software.

Bingo....and they refuse to do anything about it.

It needs to be completely overhauled.

[BetOnline]

Guys

The software has been behaving MUCH MUCH better. Lots of players really like it--expect some big improvement in v2--including a beta test, there's a concept new to our old development team!

Of course we cap payouts on a ND bonus; your not risking your own cash, we are going to limit the liabiity for our cash. And of course we need you to deposit before we can pay your winnings--proves who you are. We do have KYC and AML rules under our Panama licence.

And mathdotcom, ALL the player services reps are hot--in all shapes and sizes. We have several Miss Panama candidates on the team.. come down and see!

Cheers

Alex

[mathdotcom]

Alex I will see you in late November sir

Software has been fine for me the past week or two, but in late august it was horrific.

[Smoke]

Alex,

last time i played at betonline i requested a ** payout for $1,000 and the fee was between like $70 to $90 i can't remember but that is way too much. How much are the fees now for max amount money transfers?

I think there are other ways to prove "who we are"......the cap of the freeplay and the 5x rollover i can understand, but having to deposit (especially $100) to "prove who we are" is a bs lame excuse to get us to deposit.

So basically this deal is "you get $25 in freeplay when you deposit $100..."

This is exactly what it is. I am not singling out betonline because this is the norm when it comes to marketing at most books, but I don't appreciate being misleaded.

[Coachep]

So basically this deal is "you get $25 in freeplay when you deposit $100..."

Its actually very different. You can play the $25 before you invest anything. Lose? Walk away. Win, and you could potentially have a 250% bonus on your deposit.

[BetOnline]

Yeah sorry guys; you want money for nothing? go to well, ummm... someone who'll never pay you. We ain't bait-and-switch and we've never not paid nobody (lots of double negatives in there...our owners take huge pride is ALWAYS having paid players).

Lot's of reasons to do a ND $25 free bet.... free taste tester for everyone. but you ain't gonna get rich off it mate. And if we're going to do business, sorry, you're going to have to open that kimono a tad and a totally SMALL token deposit is how we do it.

People LIKE bonuses (I don't and never take 'em), making us the fastest growing book in the US of A by my reckoning--cause frankly we DO have the best bonuses in the biz. Long way to go yet on other features maybe... your patience and INPUT appreciated (just reactivated NHL first period lines thanks to an SBR member).

The site's working, the phone lines are open and free, AND we have great promos and bonuses... and NO ONE will take better care of you in 2010 than BetOnline.

Oh here's that word that NO ONE else uses: guaranteed. We have changed this company; we will change this industry and you will no longer accept less the BetOnline service--why should you?

Cheers

Good experience so far with these guys. Get back to you when it's payout time.

Alex what about some tennis parlay action??

[Tomato]

Tomato remembers when they mysteriously took away his free play.

The book was mean to Tomato, so Tomato took them for 100k.

[Mikail]

and you can't even parlay tennis

[Mthorn]

Just recently got into betonline, just reading in here to see if i should stay with them or not.
