Betting World Tote bets

As for there tote platform , it's one of the best and there limits are better than most .

yes beware indeed they have closed more accounts or put ridiculous limits or terms in place than any other bookmaking firm I know ..solotrama is spot on with his summing up of them as far as their bookmaking arm is concerned ..sadly the corporates have totally fucked up the bookmaking industry as when we didn't have them you could get a sizeable bet on with the independants,,they all have 50 60 70 shops but haven't got a pair of balls between the lot of them to lay a proper bet..as for their early betting they bet to percentages on around 160 percent so good luck to those who take their prices as 95 percent of the time you will way better if you wait

Thanks for another side to the story .........................I must say I was a little surprised as there was a time ,a few months back ,that most complaints were against them !!!!!!
The solution remains extending the tote to include fixed price betting.With the operators obvious feelings towards bookmakers ,I am amazed that that is not part of the amended licence request!

i still think bettingworld is the best of a bad bunch. i wouldnt go near world sports betting if you paid me.

I tend to agree with you - the best of a bad bunch, and they are one of two bookies that have never limited me.
wsb are pathetic.
There was this bloke from wsb been interviewed at Turffontein on Tellytrack last Saturday- saying they are the biggest in South Africa.
I would like him to explain why do they limit people to ridiculous bets after a few bets – on TV, where he made all these spurious claims about their outfit.
They also make their own rules in sports betting – the last cricket test Bangladesh – South Africa was rained out after the 1st day. They refused to pay out the winning draw bets – no explanation given. So if you are not savvy enough and go to the Gambling Board, you will lose out. There are many examples of these rule irregularities with them.
And beware of their promotions (for recreational players only, whatever that means) – you have to turn over the deposit and bonus something like 5 times before you can make a withdrawal – but when you are halfway through and actually showing a profit, they cut your limit – now imagine turning over 40K at a limit of R1000 (this limit is on the stake or the winnings, eg 1000/300 or if it is an odds on 500/1000) This way they almost force you to make a loss.
