Why do Hollywoodbets have so much BS

I WANTED TO TAKE A BET R10 000/ R2000 WITH HOLLYWOOD on the internet, as I placed the bet it said that I have reached my limit.
that means I can not even play a bet up to R10 0000 on the internet, I did not take any other bets this was my first one for the day

So when I phoned them they said that they have different limits for different people!
I would like to know what that means?.
it is not as if I am making a lot of winning bets, have won e few rand the last month or two, but not big amounts, do this means if you win you get a lower limit?

I am so sick and tired of these online bookmakers with all their Bull shit, and they are all the same so it doesn't even help to change accounts because another bookmaker will have their own bullshit.

JamesB i cant imagine that they told you that they have different limits for different people maybe you misunderstood them??

the guy I spoke to defiantly said that they have different limits I am sure about that.
If i am not mistaken a few months back their were a thread with something similar on about this practice

they may have that policy but im sure they would not be that blase about it ? i have always found them very accommodating at the call center

Course they do Titch, if they are similar to UK bookies anyway, all based on potential liability... if they see 007 as a bigger potential liability than Mr Mug, they will limit him to whatever and Mr Mug will have the top limit available to all. Happens with UK bookies all the time. IMO is a disgrace, but words will make no difference. Have had no experience of such with Hollywood so general comment but SportingBet etc are simply ridiculous. 007, if you don't want to be limited... lose. Then read the bookies cr*p about how they are very pro Responsible Gambling etc.

Yes one sometimes gets so tired of all the BS all i want to do is go on the net palce my bet cry if it lose, jump for joy if it wins, I do not want to spent time on the phone trying to place my bet, talking to operators where you have to repeat all the bets 3/4 times while they sit there chewing /eating while they are talking to you or their co workers making jokes in the background so much so that the operator can not hear you.

I HATE TO PHONE MY BETS IN

{tosses James a chill pill .... offers hip flask with regurgitated JWB to wash down same}.... [meanders off to place 18000/2000 Golden Dane}...I obviously a mug...cos the bet went through ..... : ....... NOT. I would never play that big.

Hollywood have been trying to contact you,or will be in contact soon...

Clyde has sent you an email with an explanation what went wrong..

Hopefully you will post here soon..

If there was ever any evidence needed that I was the king of mug punters this has got to be it...I get brilliant service from Hollywood whether its depositing or withdrawing i have taken fairly sizable bets and have never been knocked back albeit through the call center...so being a mug has also got its advantages

TITCH ...U TALK SO MUCH SHIT...WHATS ACCOMMDATING ABOUT THEM....the day we wanted the double NAVAL ATTACK,and JAMIE LEE JET...WE DID THE TRANSFER AN HOUR BEFORE THE 1ST RACE..we faxed them confirmation,we faxed them the bank statement it came off....we sent them proof from standard bank...they put the money in the next day...THAT DAY THEY COST US R160 000 RANDS....NOW it seems ,they wouldn't have even laid us the bet...then there's a story of a pa that they are not paying a mate of mine,according to my mate..they offering him a settlement of R50 000 FOR A PA THAT THEY SHOULD BE PAYING CLOSE TO R140 000...THATS NOW WITH THE BETTING COUNCIL TO RESOLVE...AND JAMES IS CORRECT IN SAYING THAT THEY HAVE DIFFERENT LIMITS FOR DIFFERENT CLIENTS.

BUT JAMES ,LIKE U SAID THEY ARE ALL THE SAME...ALL ONLINE BOOKIES...EVEN INTERBET
