Camelot

[Cons]

Any info and past experiences with Camelot sportsbook will be greatly appreciated.

Camelot has a lot to offer. I'd recommend them to anyone.

Hi Cons,
I´m betting with them for about two months and therefore I can´t say much.
I´m mainly a soccer and tennis bettor and their offers in this sections are very good.

They are very fast - I´m using Neteller and the Deposits and Withdrawls are done within minutes, Mails are answered immediatly and the bets are settled within minutes after the end of soccer matches.
But on the other side they change their odds also that fast - if you bet 200$ on an option you can be sure that the odds will change (I personally have no problem with that, but I know others have) - but I´m only betting soccer and tennis !!! (I don´t know how they manage US-sports).

I don´t know much about their financial stability (only what I´ve read in the forums) and therefore I try to keep my account balance low.

But all in all - until now everything was perfect.

Hi Bert, thanks for the info! I thought I'd give them a try as I like their way of controlling limits. You can either place a bet and have it accepted straight away or you can wager more and wait for manual clearance. I bet the over for a soccer match and wanted $1000 instead of the $300 limit, and after two mins it was accepted. I really like the software they use, but as you mentioned financial stability is another matter that requires further investigation., especially in these hard times for sportsbooks.

I'm a big supporter of Camelot and its head honcho, Mark Del. I play at the book and highly recommend it to others. Mark is bright, innovative, and runs a great operation.

I echo Reno sentiments.Have had best customer service anywhere and are an absolute must for golf punters with their unique lines.You always run a risk with new books but as Jeff stated in another thread you can always keep your balances in check with easy transfers via neteller if that is a concern.

No Thanks. None for me! Way too new. I've learned my lesson. I'm staying far away.

i've been watching the clock all weekend. counting the minutes wondering how long it would take reno to make an appearance in this thread with his "i've got money at this book insurance post"! right on schedule buddy! ha!

It's been said before but I will repeat it.
If the book is NOT on THE LIST then do not-I repeat DO NOT play there.

I posted up with them in June. I think they are a great shop. As Dogs, says they are a must for golf bettors. Their customer service is great and they pay quickly. I have been fortunate enough to win with them and have received 4 payouts. All have been fast and done with a smile.


yanksfan, yeah the list is fine. Unfortunately, its not bullet proof. DirecBet has proven that. I have money with them that I can't get to. I went there (Dbet) because of recomendations from this site and another site. As I stated above, Camelot has paid me 4 times. I have no worries about my balance at Camelot, even though they are not on the list.

[yanksfan]

you are correct fatboy it is not bullet proof. however i would not risk my money with camelot or any other 1st year book when i have a wwts, olympic and royal among others. at least i know they will around tomorrow. i don't know that of camelot or any 1st year book no matter how much you shill for them.
maybe you can give me a reason to play with them over wwts, wsex, olympic or royal.

yanksfan,

You posted in a thread where someone asks about a book in which I have experience.

Yet, with no first hand experience, you feel compelled to give your negative opinion of them.

I wasn't implying or even asking you to use Camelot. However, I was offering my first hand knowledge to the poster asking the question. Which is what I thought this forum was for.

So, if that makes me a shill for them, then I guess I am.


:mad:

[FatBoy]

btw, I love wsex, olympic, and royal. I have accounts at all 3. But you can have wwts. I had a bad experience with them. I think Camelot's customer service outshines all of the above. The only one who is even close is Olympic.

[TEN DOLLAR YO]

I DON'T SEE CAMELOT ON THE BETTORSWORLD LIST AND ALTHOUGH I DON'T KNOW THE REASON I AM SURE THEY HAVE A GOOD ONE.

THATS ENOUGH FOR ME TO STAY AWAY.

Fats a shill?? He been around since the beginning of time and he is a valued and respected poster everywhere.Now if you want to discuss shills you may want to check out opinions on all the above making "requested" remarks concerning a book and if you add em up you will find it opinions boil down to old heads for/the may 2001 crew against
