    Came in 4th place and should get 100 if I played at least 100 with Betjam during the baseball season. I was only credited 25 because I did not play with them the week I won.

    The rules are... you must have wagered $100 after March 31st...

    Bet Jamaica is always right on the money with paying prizes, at least they have been with me.

    If you had wagered $100 AFTER March 31st... and before 12pm the Saturday of your winning week... then you are due the full amount.

    If you tried to make a deposit and wager AFTER noon the Saturday of your prize winning week...

    The rules say AFTER march 31st... and before 12 Saturday of your winning week.... if you did this... let Bet Jamaica know they made a mistake and get your prize money.

    made wagers in April/May on baseball over 100 and received 25% of my winnings. They said I needed to wager the week I won (which it does not say in the rules).

    The Rules say:

    Weekly winners must have a registered BetJamaica account and have made at least $100 in real money wagers at BetJamaica during the 2011 MLB regular season.  *Your wager must be made any time before Saturday 1pm EST of your prize winning week otherwise you will receive 25% of the free play value.

    I won a weekly freeplay of $500 during the NFL season... the rules were the same, but they (Beted) only gave me 25%... 

    I was due the 100% because I in fact met all the rules as posted... it took 3 emails... and then had to send them a copy of their own rules... then they paid me.

    I would say... email Herman at Betjamaica... he is a good guy... and show him the rules posted here for the weekly winner.... and show him it says NOTHING about having to make a wager during the MLB season AND your winning week...

    If what you say you made $100 in wagers after March 31st... and before 1pm Saturday of your winning week... you will get the 100%

    I would also email Lou here at Covers and explain to him you problem.

    Good luck

    disregard that last post. It always said that. My point is a bet made in April or May is before the Sat of your winning week. I thought that was there so people did not make wagers after Sat of the winning week because they knew they were going to win. Why have this before it.. Weekly winners must have a registered BetJamaica account and have made at least $100 in real money wagers at BetJamaica during the 2011 MLB regular season

    It did say that before... the rules did not change... but you are still good!

    All that has to be done... is wager $100 after March 31st.. YOU SAY YOU DID THAT. Next... it had to be BEFORE 1pm Saturday of your prize winning week.

    They don't change the rules here on covers... the rules are still the same... and you still can collect your 100%

    The reason they say, " before 1pm saturday of your prize winning week"... is so that no-one can make a deposit/wager late Sunday, when they know they are going to win a prize.

    It did say that before... the rules did not change... but you are still good!

    All that has to be done... is wager $100 after March 31st.. YOU SAY YOU DID THAT. Next... it had to be BEFORE 1pm Saturday of your prize winning week.

    They don't change the rules here on covers... the rules are still the same... and you still can collect your 100%

    Thanks, Trotter..How of the heat in PA? Brutal here . There is no way to go back and check your wagers at Betjam. I wanted to send him the exact date. Do you know how to go back more than 14 days on their site?

    Near 90... but not too humid, could be worse!

    I would email Herman at Betjamaica... he is a good guy, and you will get paid. If they in fact told you that you had to wager during your winning week... they don't know their own rules.
     
    I'm not sure how to check past 14 days... but they have all the info, that's for sure. Just ask them... when was the last wager you made with them and for how much.

    If BJ still won't give you the 100% because they say you did not wager during your winning week... I would get Lou involved, he too has always been a big help.

    Just don't let it slide... make sure you get what is due you.

    Good luck... get that $$$$$$
