Default Sportsinteraction Is Garbage, The Worst Book Ever!

You thought you would never hear me say this. But I am pissed after 5 years with them. They cant withdrawal my money fast enough, it has been 10 days!! I withdrew $5500....I guess that was too much for them to handle!!! And now they limited my bets!!! From having the option of betting 500 on totals and 1200 on sides, down to 100 for totals 300 for sides!!!
I need a new book!!! Any suggestions for a Canadian Customer????
Heres the convo

You are now chatting with 'Kevin'
Your Issue ID for this chat is LTK91012273883X
Kevin: Hi Kevin. How can I help you?
Kevin: Hey, it seems like the placing bet is working now, however the bet limits have changed! It is now 33 limit for a side and a 100 dollar limit for a total. What is up with that? >?
Kevin: 300 limit for a side
Kevin: thats the lowest i have ever seen, in 5 years at sportsinteraction
Kevin: Let me check on that for you. One moment, please.
Kevin: if these changes are taking place i would have to withdraw immediately
Kevin: i need the freedom of having to choose either big or small on a wager
Kevin: Unfortunately, as a business decision, it does appear that our Line Management Department has reduced the maximum amounts for each of the wager types. I apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused.
Kevin: WOW!!!
Kevin: I cant believe this
Kevin: u guys must be losing alot of money
Kevin: now i am definately worried about my withdrawal
Kevin: perhaps you guys wont pay me??
Kevin: We always pay our customers, Kevin. Unfortunately, sometimes it is no longer in our best interests to maintain the highest maximums for some customers. It is a a decision made by Line Management.
Kevin: okay thats fine, I accept it. I was just worried because it has been over 10 days and no withdrawal received
Kevin: Hey....when you say "for some customers"...does that mean that some customers are limited
Kevin: I noticed that we have already contacted the processor with regards to your withdrawal and that our Accounts Department is following up to make sure that it reached you as soon as possible.
Kevin: Yes that is true. They are looking into it.
Kevin: I am going to wire the remaining amount of money
Kevin: i think that is the best withdrawal option
Kevin: it may be quicker
Kevin: Perfect then. Sorry for the inconvenience. I'm sure you know already that things usually go smoothly. Every now and then, though, there's a processing error and we have to double back. Yes, right now Wire Transfer is the best choice.
Kevin: thanks for your help!
Kevin: :)
Kevin: Is there anything else I can help you with for now, Kevin?
Kevin: No problem at all. Glad I could help you out.

SI has always been a joke. I used them once a few years back to do an outright on the canadian junior team and I used their max amount. It won, the next time I went to bet I had been limited. 1 freakin bet and I had the limits put on lol. Pinny is the way to go like jml said.

Lets put it this way...I deposited 1000 on christmas. I generated 13,000 profit since then. My limits increased from 500 sides 250 totals to 1200 sides and 500 totals around march madness time and they probably hoped I would take advantage and max out and lose alot of it. Now they see that I cant lose, even though I lose a dime here and there in NBA I can get it back with baseball. So they are probably hoping I leave them!

My first three years I was always a parlay better, thats why i never had problems with them. My bets were so small they didnt care. Now I see the fuckery they pull on people! Ridiculous! "business decision to limit some customers!" LOL

Lotsa books do that unfortunately. The sad truth is that 90% of these books available to us on the net don't have an inkling of how to balance their action, so the only way they can survive is to either limit, or kick out those who win. I swear, they should have disclaimers that say "if you don't plan on losing, don't sign up". It's sickening.

Pinnacle won't limit you however. Unfortunately I can't use Pinnacle anymore. You Canadian guys are lucky.

Olympic won't limit ya either, or BetCris.....but Pinnacle's lines crush those guys IMO.

Dime bets are penny candy to those books with the volume of action they take....Pinny's max bet on some games is 100K....and I believe at least 25K on anything else, so you'll be safe there no matter how much you wanna bet.

One problem though, you won't beat the line move at Pinny, or get shitty off market lines like you can at SIA....which is the only reason I even use SIA. Can't tell ya how many times I've won by a half point, when others who had the same play as me either pushed or lost....especially in hoops, by taking advantage of a goofy line at SIA that was a full point or more off market.

I don't bet big enough for them to care though apparently, and even if they did limit me to $300 for sides, I wouldn't care anyway. It's so rare that I would make a bet of over $300 that it wouldn't effect me.

My advice would DEFINITELY be to switch to Pinnacle though. Best book ever, and G.W. and his boys in congress can lick my balls for screwing up my ability to use them....

Thanks for the reply Stiflersmom, I always enjoy reading your imput on such topics.

I only found out about this because I wanted to be like Kevin and put a 1000 (10 units) on Tampa, I nearly fell off my chair when it said limit is 300 ...oh well I got $300. Crazy game, thought the 10 - 4 lead was safe.

I just want to know how you live in Canada and don't have a Pinny account.

I think you need your head examined!

PINNY... I'll always remember my first love. Eventhough she was taken away from me, along with Neteller.

This is off-topic, but is VIP okay? Iv'e heard they were having some troubles... I've been using them for a couple years, and they offer some solid doggie lines, better than 5DIMES at least. Anyone know what is up with their status? I just got asked to re-do all my account information.... leaving me worried that they are getting bought out.

Still no payout, 12 days now. I tried to use another method and wire another $4400 out of there. No response on that one yet.
