Default The difference in cold calls Justbet vs Youwager

I have been recieving cold calls and i never answer my phone unless i expect a call or know the number from what I have observed about these two sites........... Youwager calls all time of the day 2-4 times a day and it is a guy who calls and sounds very angry in the messages like he wants to intimidate you into depositing, Justbet (who I recently signed up for) called and left a message once not several times and the rep who called was a female who sounded cute as hell and was very nice and polite, had a very sweet sexy voice and explained the advantages of playing there........ i think youwager needs to take some lessons

I am going to deposit at justbet over youwager now just because Holly had superior sales technic by a mile, I don't need a guy calling me sounding pissed off harassing me 4 times a day everyday

The drafts on thursday...How long might you go away for? If I can get out of multiple DUI's in a police state you should be good.

It is that time of the year where cold calling starts to happen at a very high rate. I'm just wondering if and when Bookmaker will start with the phone calls like they did last year.

I'll briefly interrupt to comment on the original topic:

I really wonder how YouWager does with their obnoxious style. I guess they must be successful at bullying some people into depositing.

For lots of people, it just turns them right off and makes them say, "Screw them."

But they must believe it pays off in the long run or they wouldn't keep doing that.

Why don't you check with your "sources"?

It turn you off when Betpop cold called you a few weeks ago Mudcat. Although, I feel you probably should check them out once again, because they do offer some stuff during football season that is well worth the cold calling annoyances.

Cold calling from anybook doesn't really bother me, it's just like e-mail spam, delete it and go on with the next.

If you call YOU WAGER (FIRST FIDELITY) and tell them to take you off their calling list they will do so.

Actually they didn't cold call me - I phoned them. When I told them I wanted some basic info before I signed up, they hung up on me.

But I agree with your thinking and I later signed up. They haven't cold called me yet but my account is now sitting empty so I am ready. I like cold calls anyway. They don't bother me like they do some people.

I just know about their telemarketing style from talking to people.

Being obnoxious wouldn't get them anywhere with me. It's all about the deal they're offering. I agree with TopGame. Better to just be polite and professional about it.

Hey Top,

Actually this wasnt a cold call ... reason was that you had previously opened the account before you got the call ... u were sent to the VIP Department and Holly has your account to assist you.
