I guess we dont know 100% percent..but pretty damn close to 100%. They are not paying..they lie to people constantly, we are being told by the staff at SBR that the general manager Jon Kreta is no longer with bet islands..all of the warning signs were there.

I pleaded with these guys for a week or two now to come clean if stuff is going bad there that alot of bad signs lately, and they have always been honestly good people there and told me everything is fine it is all about processor. I cannot believe this, will try again in the AM and pray I get this money, I cannot take this stuff anymore, so hard to win a bet and get ahead then this worry. I give up. [/Quote
I feel you phantom flag..i have been getting my behind kicked the whol year until recently i went on a big run to get about 70% of it back..orso i thought..now it appears im not getting anything..tough pill to swallow.
I really think we are at the point where we can no longer use the word "trust" in association with offshore betting.
yesterday teh Customer Service dept. was Email only, and the phone wagering line said BI was closed but they would still take our bets. TODAY, I call and get Ryan, who tells of GOOD NEWS and that negotiations are underway as a new buyer is promising....why bs me at this point? Figure we may have new life. I love the dogs and we have a live dog here, I got BI +375.
Well here is the Dear John note from the former Bet Islands. Never thought I would become the victim, but it is my turn, just shy of 1,100. Worked hard for two weeks to turn 100 into 1100 and was ready to buy my wife a nice watch, what a sickening feeling.
