Should we give the book our REAL PHONE NUMBER?

[Journeyman]

I gave mine out last saturday to a book I was trying for the first time...Without thinking I just blurted out my real number, they all say the same thing..."We will never call" blah blah blah.... If they will never call than why ask ,lol?

Well hopefully FF doesn`t somehow end up with it....Do you guys give your real number?

Give them the number with one digit off or wrong area code. If there is a verification problem on your account, you can match up most of the numbers against your real phone number, and claim any errors were due to typo or bad connection. Plausible deniability.

Yes you should give a book your correct contact info., they might need to contact you for some valid business reason.

You should also dump the book if they call you for anything really not important, especially if you tell them not to call you.

I agree Joey.

I'd also LOVE to know who fukking sold my # to Rio\Skybook. I'm still in shock over the fact that they had the # that they did.

Well I always give my real phone number, but might start to do otherwise seeing that other peopel dont give their real phone number. Well actually it is my REAL cell phone number to be exact.

But RIO called me like 3 times last week and I havent played with them in over 5 months! I dont like their 15 cent baseball lines

Any book that calls you asking for post up should be reported here and downgraded...There is no reason good enough for a book to call and ask for a deposit..Some people could get in trouble by them doing this...I had a few mickey mouse books that had the nerve to leave their sales pitch on my voice mail. WTF, do they think some people might not want the wife to know? I usually just say no phone number when they ask, they can email if a problem arose...

I do not ...I do not need to be on anymore Sports picks lines where they call and tout you. Plus my number is unlisted im not giving it out to a book...If I have to give my number i give my cell

if they cant contact you how are they going to offer you a 25% re-up bonus with one time playthrough? If I owned a sportsbook I would be calling all willing whales and enticing them with treats.

Jman, we only use your phone# for Fed-Ex in case they need to find you to deliver your package. I would give all books your cell phone # if you don't want any calls to be intercepted by a wife or girlfriend. Unfortunately many books desperate for post-up funds will stoop to all and any levels to pump up their bankrolls.

Most Books contact through Email. I never give my real # when I did several contacted me at work/home and caused problems to reactivate etc.

Real name too...

Hate to be up 5-10k with wrong info on file.

Payout delays have been known to cause sleep loss.

I agree with JAVA in Giving them the number with one digit off or wrong area code. If there is a verification problem on your account it will be explained through clerical error. Email is the best mode of communication and you have a record of your conversation if discrepancies/problems with payouts
