Www.betonusa.com Is A Scam


Recommended Posts

If you get a "free $50" letter in the mail or in your email be careful about signing up. I received this letter and signed up. Just as promised they deposited $50 into my account and made it clear I could not use it in the poker room. That is fine. I played a little black jack and a little roulette and ran it up to $140. Not a big deal but I don't like playing casino games so I figured I would cash out. When I tried to cash out it stated I had only cleared $70 of the bonus to cash out. I am fine with that. Fair is fair. After all it was a free $50. I cashed out the $70 and promptly lost the rest. I received a confirmation that the cash out was ready and it stated that it takes 1-2 days before it will show in Neteller.Needless to say it never showed. I called their service number and the dude flat told me I would not be getting it and they are keeping it. I asked why and he said that they gave it to me in good faith that I would use the account. Instead I just used their money and tried to cash out.Here is a direct quote from the letter that I STILL HAVE:"How does $50 free and a chance to win over $1,000,000.00 in progressive jackpots sound? That's right, only at betonusa.com can you use our moiney to wager and keep all of your winnings."He told me that if I made a $20 deposit than he would start me over with the free $50 but that the original money was gone. I asked how much I had to bet to be able to cash out and he told me I just had to wager what I deposited. He even said if I bet on tomorrow's football game and won or lost I could deposit and withdraw with no problems.I asked for clarification. I said, " I do not bet on sports so what if I played blackjack?" He said that would work. I responded "so if I deposit $20 and bet $10 on two hands, win or lose I could cash out what ever is in my account?"He began to backtrack and said that was not the case.I would have to bet $220 to be able to cash out my deposit of $20.I told him his service sucked and so did his websight and promptly hung up the phone.The good news....I didn't lose any of my own money. Just theirs.They suck. Stick with Mansion

First poker site I ever played at was BetonUSA. Got the $50, ran it up a bit and after a month of playing $10-$20 sng's, I had around $500. I'd cash half of it out then got it back to $500 again. Never had a single problem with the site.I eventually cashed everything out so I could pay for christmas gifts, and like every other time, I cashed out, they charged me a $5 fee and sent me a check in the mail within a week.

Then what the hell is their problem with me?I only tried to cash out $70 and they flat closed my account and kept the money.

No clue. I can't remember exactly how I started, but I think I had to bet some of my $50 on blackjack in order to get some to send to my poker account. Every week I would cash out like $75ish, and I'd have a nice little check from some place overseas within a week.

my point is I did casino whore. It told me I cleared the requirements to cash out and so I tried. than they shut down my account and told me to bad so sad.I am not to worried because I never deposited. I am just worried someone else will deposit and they will just keep the money.

Oh...well...I don't plan on depositing...but I still would like to know what bonus code you did in which you got your "50 dollars". I'll try my luck w/ withdrawing it. :club:

I don't think that luck has anything to do with it.

Sorry to hear about that man. I'd never heard of the site before and I'll never play there but thanks for the heads up. :club:

did you have to enter some code? how do I get this free $50?
I know, they won't tell us a code to enter. It's not like we are losing money, it's free money to begin with.
