    this is BS. I was trying to place a wager on a golf matchup that started at 1:10pm. I go to place the wager at 12:51 on the line -130 Rory Sabbatini and it says there are no lines on the board at this time. The first golf matchup went off at 12:50 so I think someone just took them all off, I have no idea. So I used the live chat feature and chat with Paula, it takes about 15 minutes but the lines are reposted. So I go to place my wager and it shows -130 still when I pull it up. When I submit it, it says the price changed to -140. So I go back to chat and explain what happened and that I wanted to get the -130 as had I been able to place my wager 15 minutes before it wouldn't have changed. Well she tells me to call and I do, I spoke with Sheila and she talks to the line manager who tells her I can get a bet, but now it's -145!  I was like wtf you guys took them down and made the mistake I didn't. She said look there is nothing we can do and I can "take it or leave it". Well I took it and if this shit fucking happens again I am done with BetPhoenix. How can you make someone pay more juice because you fucked up? Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

    another thing is I keep having to message them to get them to post things like Golf matchups, last night it was Australian Open tennis matchups. The person who posts the odds seems to be slack or whatever. Here is a conversation I just had with a rep, who was nice, but still you guys have to do better than this.

    Please wait for a site operator to respond.

    You are now chatting with 'Diego'

    Diego: Hello Jarrett

    Jarrett: hi, I just chatted with you guys looking for golf matchups that weren't posted. Well they posted them but they have most of them going off the board in 10 minutes. The person posting the lines should have seen they pushed the tee times back because of rain. They won't be playing for another two hours.

    Diego: at this moment we have problems with the phones i cant get thought over the phone

    Diego: can you pls call them

    Jarrett: lol ok

    Diego: let me give you the phone number

    Jarrett: you guys should hire me

    Diego: 1.888.238.8018 - 1.888.889.4313

    Jarrett: I have to message you almost every day to get something done that isn't showing up right

    Diego: ok

    Jarrett: ok

    Diego: sure thanks

    Diego: come to costa rica

    Diego: and we hire you

    Jarrett: I will call in a few minutes.

    Jarrett: lol

    Jarrett: I would if I could :(

    Diego: you are almost welcome

    Jarrett: I appreciate it Diego, have a good day

    Diego: thanks

    I guess you have to bash BP on the message boards to get a reply. I had issues the last two weeks with customer service and lines and didn't get much help. I had another issue and emailed Richard on the 22nd asking for help and to look into this. I was very polite and even expressed the fact that I was hoping they suceeded and that to treat people the way the customer service was treating at least me and from what I have seen on here was poor and that doing things like above in my original post and the issue below would lead people to run away. I also explained that you would think the reps would bend over backwards within reason to help people with all the issues they have had. I didn't get a response at all, not even something saying he will look into it or anything. I know he probably has his hands full with all the complaints, but still it doesn't speak much to keeping me as a customer. Here is the issue I had the other night. It may not seem like much to some, but it pissed me off. I was going to bet Marin Cilic and even posted in the tennis forum that I would love to take him, but the book took it off.

    info: Please wait for a site operator to respond.
    info: You are now chatting with 'Ted'
    Ted: How may I help you today?
    Jarrett: hi again Ted, just wanting to see if you guys can repost the Cilic, Wawrinka match that starts in about 20 minutes
    Ted: let me check
    Ted: Sorry, my supervisor tells me the match has already started
    Jarrett: I am watching the live feed come on
    Jarrett: they haven't even started warming up
    Jarrett: no one is on the court
    Ted: I apologize, but we won't be able to open the lines at this time. The system shows the match as already started
    Jarrett: what system?
    Jarrett: I am watching tv and it's live and not started. You guys take the games off the board WAY TOO EARLY.
    Jarrett: You had this one going off at 12 midnight and it's not going to start before 3am
    Jarrett: if it's already started what's the score?
    Ted: That is what the lines manager tells me, I don't have access to that system
    Jarrett: this is getting crazy, I have to every day message you guys to repost lines that haven't started or to post lines for something you don't even have the lines posted for like golf earlier today
    Ted: Is there a specific question I can help you with?
    Jarrett: I think I have made it clear why I am messaging you
    Jarrett: it's still not started a full 10 minutes after you told me it has
    Jarrett: it shows on Directv them doing the coin toss and a start time of 3:10am EST
    Jarrett: but you say it's already started...
    Ted: That is what the system was showing
    Jarrett: well it must be the same system that causes you guys to go down and be down for days.
    Jarrett: You would think with all the problems you have had with your site and keeping it up, that you would be over backwards for customers to keep them
    Jarrett: But when a match has clearly not started, you tell me some system is telling you it has.
    Jarrett: It's not 4 minutes from the scheduled start time
    Jarrett: now* instead of not
    Jarrett: they are now starting to warm up which usually lasts about 5-10 minutes of hitting the ball back and forth.
    Ted: Is there anything else that I can assist you with?
    Jarrett: what's this supervisors name that is saying it started 16 minutes ago.
    Ted: Gino
    Jarrett: and what's the score since it started 17 minutes ago?
    Jarrett: So I can deposit with another book since they still have it up on the board.
    Ted: We only have the scores once the game is final
    Jarrett: well I am going to see if I can't talk to someone tomorrow and see if they can't do something about this
    Jarrett: It's still not started by the way.
    Jarrett: a full 20 minutes after you say it has
    Jarrett: https://www.australianopen.com/en_AU/tracker/ttFrame.html?ts=1264147312514&lang=en_AU&syn=ATP&wh=666&mode=score&ref=www.atpworldtour.com/&db=false&crt=none
    Jarrett: there is a link to the scoreboard
    Jarrett: and now they have just started 22 minutes after you said they had started.
    Jarrett: I appreciate where you reposted the lines earlier. But the simple fact is that you shouldn't pull lines off the board before they begin. I shouldn't have to message you guys every time you pull a line off the board an hour early. Or ask you to post golf lines that you hadn't posted. You guys need to go over and beyond for people if you want to stay in business. You already have a bad reputation and I have defended you, but maybe the people are right to give you such a hard time.
    info: Your chat transcript will be sent to (my email address) at the end of your chat.
    Ted: I'll keep that in mind and pass it along to my superiors
    Jarrett: I will as well in the morning
    Jarrett: and in the email I send in a few minutes

    I guess you have to bash BP on the message boards to get a reply. I had issues the last two weeks with customer service and lines and didn't get much help. I had another issue and emailed Richard on the 22nd asking for help and to look into this. I was very polite and even expressed the fact that I was hoping they suceeded and that to treat people the way the customer service was treating at least me and from what I have seen on here was poor and that doing things like above in my original post and the issue below would lead people to run away. I also explained that you would think the reps would bend over backwards within reason to help people with all the issues they have had. I didn't get a response at all, not even something saying he will look into it or anything. I know he probably has his hands full with all the complaints, but still it doesn't speak much to keeping me as a customer. Here is the issue I had the other night. It may not seem like much to some, but it pissed me off. I was going to bet Marin Cilic and even posted in the tennis forum that I would love to take him, but the book took it off.

    info: Please wait for a site operator to respond.
    info: You are now chatting with 'Ted'
    Ted: How may I help you today?
    Jarrett: hi again Ted, just wanting to see if you guys can repost the Cilic, Wawrinka match that starts in about 20 minutes
    Ted: let me check
    Ted: Sorry, my supervisor tells me the match has already started
    Jarrett: I am watching the live feed come on
    Jarrett: they haven't even started warming up
    Jarrett: no one is on the court
    Ted: I apologize, but we won't be able to open the lines at this time. The system shows the match as already started
    Jarrett: what system?
    Jarrett: I am watching tv and it's live and not started. You guys take the games off the board WAY TOO EARLY.
    Jarrett: You had this one going off at 12 midnight and it's not going to start before 3am
    Jarrett: if it's already started what's the score?
    Ted: That is what the lines manager tells me, I don't have access to that system
    Jarrett: this is getting crazy, I have to every day message you guys to repost lines that haven't started or to post lines for something you don't even have the lines posted for like golf earlier today
    Ted: Is there a specific question I can help you with?
    Jarrett: I think I have made it clear why I am messaging you
    Jarrett: it's still not started a full 10 minutes after you told me it has
    Jarrett: it shows on Directv them doing the coin toss and a start time of 3:10am EST
    Jarrett: but you say it's already started...
    Ted: That is what the system was showing
    Jarrett: well it must be the same system that causes you guys to go down and be down for days.
    Jarrett: You would think with all the problems you have had with your site and keeping it up, that you would be over backwards for customers to keep them
    Jarrett: But when a match has clearly not started, you tell me some system is telling you it has.
    Jarrett: It's not 4 minutes from the scheduled start time
    Jarrett: now* instead of not
    Jarrett: they are now starting to warm up which usually lasts about 5-10 minutes of hitting the ball back and forth.
    Ted: Is there anything else that I can assist you with?

    that is the thing all the betphoenix supporters don't understand, you have to complain to these message boards when you have a problem or nothing gets down.

    just wait till these supporters have a problem that is being ignored and not taken care, they will see the light. All these compliants against betphoenix are becoming common place and far more than a coincidence.

    I am not a complete hater or lover of BP like this greenikes person, but I was looking to place a bet on a total and it wasn't posted. So I contacted BP via chat and this was their response.

    Please wait for a site operator to respond.

    You are now chatting with 'Wendy'

    Wendy: Hello.  How may I assist you?

    Jarrett: when will you be posting the totals for the rest of the college basketball?

    Wendy: one sec let me ask

    Wendy: 2 hours before the game

    Jarrett: when did this start? You guys used to post them by 4. It doesn't allow for people to get a bet in on a line before the movement pushes a line one way or another.

    Wendy: that is up to management sir

    Jarrett: ok

    Jarrett: well if you guys want to succeed you may want to do what every other book does and post them earlier. The posting at 4pm was late and kind of crazy, but waiting to do it for some games until 8 or 9 at night is just crazy.

    Jarrett: k I guess no response since you haven't typed back in 5 minutes.

    Wendy: yes i will tell them about that sir

    Though it looks pretty bleak, I hope to cash out from BP's free super bowl play, so I can see first hand how their service performs.  Can't do anything until at least 30 days has passed AND met 10x rollover.  My $90 in winnings on the Super Bowl Under is down to 5 bucks, so I wouldn't hold my breath.  Though it really only takes a couple of straight winners to get back, or maybe 3 or 4 anyway, as always have to start with 1.  Wish me luck.

    Im up to $600. If I meet the rollover, will I be able to cash it out in 30  days? Or are they gonna make me jump thru hoops? (Note) I have never actually made a cash deposit with this site.

    you can cash out in 30 days, but you can cash out max $300. That was in the rules. Good luck.

    one of the rules is max $300 cashout. There were only like 3 rules and that was one. I think the others were that it had to be rolled over 10x and the first bet had to be on the Super Bowl.

    So basicly if I made $1200 off the super bowl promo, $900 would be forfeited?

    betphoenix is one of the worst sportsbooks that there are, right up there with sportsbetting.com and both are on the covers pay list i mean great sportsbooks list.  i have tried making a deposit with betphoenix about 7 or 8 times, only my deposit never goes through and the last time it said i was preauthorized and then come to find out, there mastercard processor was down and had been all week.  They are pathetic.  And their customer service and management are as professional and as good as their job as their pathetic sportsbook service in general.  I would not do buisness with them if they were the only sportsbook in the world.  My credit cards always work everywhere else but not with these pathetic scoundrels.
