    What is the best online betting website?

    I've used bodog in the past and i havent had any problems. I also havent ever won lol...i just want to make sure if i do win, or if i put a lot of money into my account on there, that i will be able to get it back and its not some sort of scam...what website do you use to bet?
  • yobro08

    Bodog sucks. Took them 4 months to pay me once.
  • Iliketurtles
    I use sportsbook and haven't ever had any problems.

    I was trying to setup an account with betus yesterday. I tried depositing with my mastercard and it wouldnt go through. had something to do with international transactions. Anybody else have that problem?

    It could be your bank. A friend of mine that uses betus isn't able to use his bank card with them. Call them and have them do the transaction. Their customer service has been great with my experience.

    Also, if you are just setting up your account, there is a good chance they will give you some "free money" to make wagers with. Just ask them.

    I use www.playersonly.com. When you sign up they'll give you 10% more on your first deposit. They give you $10 to bet with when you create a mobile account. They also give you $50 for referering a friend. I just refered a person, but have yet to see the money. It's only been a couple hours and it's my gf, so it may have something to do with the same IP address.

    Ive never had problems with Bodog. Took less than a week each time(3) Never cashed out big money(400 was the most) so im not sure how long it takes if you cash out a lot.

    i too had the same problem with bodog...i would have to go to the store and buy a visa gift card and use that...that always worked

    Bookmaker is easily the best site in my opinion. I'm also on BetED, which completely blows but they took echecks so it was easy to deposit.
  • karen lotz
    I use superbook. Never had a problem getting money in or out. My only problem is they recently released a mobile app which isn't compatible with my phone and they offered a bonus for any bets placed using the app....
  • UA5straightin2008
    so i now the visa gift cards that i usually buy dont work, one of the people i live chatted with said that visa blocked them from being used on gaming websites...anyone know if this is true? what gives?

    No idea. I haven't deposited money on bodog, is using your checking account not an option? What about your bank debit card?
  • Mulva
    Almost all sites started blocking bank cards in the past year or two because of the UIGEA. Which is why I had to deposit on BetED. EChecks aren't blocked by anyone, but they are the only site that takes them (that also takes U.S. customers) that I could find.

    There are usually other ways to get around depositing if you can't use the debit card, but it's a pain in the ass.

    i dont know my checking/routing information, its all at home and im at school, all i have is the # on my debit card...and everytime i use my debit it card my bank puts a hold on my card so i have to call and explain that it wasnt fraud...how exactly do you use an echeck?
  • karen lotz
    I'd assume echeck would be using checking and routing numbers. What bank do you use? I know Chase has a list of routing numbers on its site.
  • UA5straightin2008
    i have 2, chase and nationwide, but i primarily use the nationwide, i guess i can transfer some money and try that option out, but now im stuck with a damn $25 visa gift card that can only be used online and paid $29 for
  • karen lotz
    lol, sounds like you got a good deal on the gift card :)


    If you can find your chase account number you should be good. Routing numbers can be found in the customer service section on the accounts page online.
  • Pick6
    you can find the routing number for any bank online..if you do any online banking you can check out your account number on there
