For a popular book to others I have never cared much for this book. I used to play there and I'd have more problems with their site then any other 10 books put together. Don't know if they ever fixed it but I wouldn't go back either way. Lot of smoke around this shop these days, why risk it?
Web site is fine, they upgraded it months ago. Great customer service. Response in emails are fastest in the industry.Pay fast and on time. Only down fall is bonus system sucks which there really isn't any. But thats a good sign cause they have plenty of cash behind them and need not to give money away for new and old customers. There is so much more out there for the player but yet Carib is still a great book.
Upgraded their website, I would say its been downgraded. carib use to have the best software, easiest to navigate. Now its the worst. Stll never have figured out to bet a parlay there. Plus halftime lines come out when halftimes are at least half over. I have 12 shops that I like before this overrated shop
I have had an account with Carib for about 10 years or more and have never had a problem but their deposit bonus program is for the birds. It isn't a deposit bonus unless you lose there. If you win, you don't get it ! How much clearer can you get ?
They might as well give you a 100 % bonus as they know that if you win, you will never actually receive it ! Perhaps they should offer 1000 % bonus. Same difference.... they know you will never receive it. Someone mentioned that it was like a match play bonus... Not true. I was awarded a $ 50 match play bonus at Hollywood NBA contest recently. I put it all on Oklahoma and they covered and now I have $ 50 in my account and I can withdraw if I continue to win. With Carib, you can never withdraw you deposit bonus. That my friends is not a real bonus but a hoax ! Everyone who makes a deposit is hopeful that they will win but at Carib the bonus only applies if you become a loser.
I have always been one of Carib biggest supportrs on this forum but they deducted my deposit bonus plus $ 20 Neteller fee and I will not soon forget this !

The $50 in your Hollywood account are your winnings, not the bonus. Your $50 matchplay bonus was never available for withdrawal.
A 1000% bonus would be financial suicide on Carib's part. For example...
You deposit $100, get your 1000% bonus of $1000 for a total of $1100 in your account. You bet on some sort of even money bet, win $1100. Your account is now up to $2200. You cash out, $2200 minus the $1000 bonus leaves you with $1200... $1100 profit on what was basically a $100 even money bet. The maximum out of pocket risk to the bettor was only $100. Carib would go bankrupt fast with this strategy.

Carib is a good book. Know the rules and use them to your advantage. They state your balance and what is a bonus. If you beat them you forfeit the bonus. If you lose you got to play with some free money. Not my favorite bonus system, but fair if you know it going in. Some different numbers and solid, that is a lot these days....JMHO
Phantom bonus? Whatever.
I don't play there. But if I did, I'd read their rules carefully before expecting a bonus. I've seen more than one book that states in one way or another, that you can only withdraw a bonus if you have lost money, even after including the bonus.
The bad:
If you can't read the rules, you didn't get what you expected.
The good:
1. a book with these kind of rules is ultra-convervative, meaning it is less likely to go under.
2. If you know how to optimize such a bonus, you don't lose that much compared to a normal cash bonus. In a "perfect world", you want your deposit to be about 1/2 a regular unit. Bet your money like you would any other play... but if you lose either of your first two wagers, you made out like a bandit, despite losing
