BetUS any good?

Seems like they are growing into a very large book with huge advertising campaigns in this peak betting season. Anyone have any personal experience with them?

Started using them this football season, after , seeing their advertising blitz, in Vegas, at the World series of Poker . I was suspicious when the gambling act was signed and bailed out most of my funds. Moved them to Betcris. Thought they , would close , like the others. They are still around , and open for business to their credit. Still have a few duckets there. Loved their football lines, much like Betcris. Would consider playing there, when this online crap settles down again. PS Cashed out money. Took a hour and a half, but no problems. Hopes this helps, be careful, these are tricky times. Personally feel my money is safer, with those who , been around a while, like those sponsored here. Good Luck , whatever you decide.

I have used them for the past 3 years and I must say they are a solid book. I've never had a problem with them and would refer anyone who was thinking about trying them out. They also have some nice little incentives like the free contests where they pay out free plays, Earn player points for every dollar bet, and all year they have nice Member Benefits. plus they have a locker room where they give out tons of information about whats going on in sports.....

I did betUS when i was teenager and didnt have access to credit cards or a bank account.. they gave me a free 100 dollars and would let me withdraw if i got over 1000.. well i doubled up the first 100... then doubled up to 400.. and well on that 400 i blew it.. that was my opening run in the betting world... Its an alright book, i prefer the sponsors

I've been using them for 3 yrs If you like bettin dogs thats the place to go. Very generous lines. I've never had a problem with them. Usually get my payout fedex and they pay the cost.

I used them a few years back.... took me 6 weeks to receive a payout.

Would not recommend them to my worst enemy.

I think they have some clout in the states jesse ventura was part of their group of investors. They have his picture on their website its like they ain't even fazed about the gambling bill.

RUNNNNNNNN

I have had a whole list of problems with them - and I only was with them for about 6 weeks. They play "games" with you - customer service is a nightmare.

I have used Intertops for 7-8 years and never had a problem. I don't care if BetUS has better bonuses or an extra half point here and there - I like the comfort of knowing I'm not dealing with scam artists.
