General,

Sleeping easy is a necessary but not sufficient requirement for a top 10 ranking. If there is another book which makes you sleep just as easy as Sportbet but scores higher in other departments then that belongs instead.

I think IIS meets that requirement, for example, but I'm sure there are others as well

There must be many shit books outthere when Sportbet is in a top 10. I could mention at least 100 books that I would rather use than Sportbet. Not only because they tried to scam me. Also:

Several slow pay complaints.

They advertise $1000 straight bet limits per pop. These limits are rather $250 per pop and $50 after 1 day of using them.

Calling wagers in is a pain in the ass. They put you on hold for 5 minutes and then change the line.

I do understand the concerns about Sportbet, although of the issues that have arose, they have all been resolved to the best of my knowledge. It's not a hard-on I have for them, just a nice experience I have had. I started posting a top 10 list in the last year and have since dropped off atleast Millenium, Royal, Vip, & Rio. There is nothing definate about my opinion. It is risky to put up an opinion like this for the slaps that may come LOL. All of you have valid opinions as well, except the guy jumping Dante's azz, that was un-called for, so thank for the feedback. I assure my intentions are good. I'm not an expert by any means, just a few thoughts. Joey says I'm 90% right, so that is a good thing

Do any of these books offer a good sign up bonus for the football season?

Thanks SaintJoe57 for your support on 5 Dimes. I have been with them now for less than a year and I have never had problems with them. They post many lines for many different sports and they pay big time.

One time for 5 Dimes!
 
Gentlemen,

First, I would like to address all these "complaints" you have heard. We have been advertising with Ken and The Rx for a long time (6 years). MANY of our clients have heard about us from one posting forum or another, so it would make sense that, with more clientele based from the posting forums, more "complaints" would appear on the boards. Just something to think about.

In the large scheme of things, these complaints are just a minute blip as compared to the amount of transactions we process daily, weekly, yearly, etc... HOWEVER, EVER SINGLE ONE OF THE COMPLAINTS HAS BEEN ADDRESSED! Never have we not answered your questions. Never have we not tried to get you all the full story, so as to allow you to make an unbiased decision. I have ALWAYS been here for EVERY SINGLE POSTER, AND NON-POSTER, alike.

Some of you bring up the fact you have seen so many posts against us. Does that include the folks who tried to scam us such as Hamneggs and Slash? Ham was a straight scammer, Slash bent the rules in his favor and managed to get around a security measure...AND WAS PAID IN FULL!!! Joey C owns/has a piece of another sportsbook, bashes us constantly, YET WE GIVE HIM OUR GRAPHS AND CHARTS FOR HIS SITE!!! Chuck Sims has had a hard-on for us for years, due to, supposedly, a bad experience. I have tried to work with him, he refuses. Sometimes, there really is no pleasing everyone.

The General plays with us, as do others here who often post in our defense. He knows we pay. He does not rely on some person telling him that someone told them that we didn't pay. He does not hear one side of the story and make a decision. FACT: We were one of the off-shore pioneers. FACT: We have never had one single no-pay. FACT: We offer solid bonuses, solid service, and solid lines. A lot of people out there would LOVE to see us fail. They would love to say I told you so. Every year it is the same thing...we get bashed during the slow season...and it is from the same old people...posters with hidden agendas, Then, amazingly, we are still around and, even better, we are GROWING.

I apologize for getting worked up, but some of you guys really and truly amaze and aggravate me. I have just got in the office, and this is what I am greeted with, without even getting my first cup of coffee in me.

THE BEST PART is the fact that we were approached yesterday to do a contest. We offered to THROW IN a decent amount of cash on top of the prize WITH NO ROLLOVER REQUIRED...FREE...just give the winner extra $$ with no obligation to play with our book. Today, this is what welcomes me. Sometimes you really gotta love the Rx.

Jake,

Get some breakfast and coffee. I may need to start giving you a heads-up when/before I post about Sportbet LOL.

Sorry man. Didn't mean to cause all of the frustration.

It's all good

Any book that ever gives you the old "transaction cannot be completed at this time, please contact customer service" message when you try to make a neteller withdrawal cannot be considered a top book in my opinion.

Please just pay us when we ask.

It was 50/50 with sportbet to get that message when I played there and I never get it at the likes of pinny, Olympic, canbet , GRANDE etc.

its funny how you HEAR about problems with certain books moreso than you do with others. problems come up just about everywhere. imo its how the problems are dealt with that is important.

sportbet is a solid shop with excellent management.

Jake,

Try re-reading the thread where you claim that I scammed you. Nearly all posters agreed that you were the scammer, and that was the only reason you paid me. You would have stolen my money if it wasn't for them and that shows how desperate you are. We were only talking pocket change in my case, still you had no problem trying to scam me.

Nothing against Sportbet but top 10? Who do you throw off to make room? Olympic? Canbet? Pinnacle? WWTS?

I admire Jake's pride but until the CS issues are straightened out (the ones that have been going on even before Jake arrived) you can't throw their hat anywhere close to this group.
