I'm a little concerned becuase my account is in GBP. The terms suggest you need to wager $1100 USD on the dot. I just spoke to a Mansion CSR and he said the rate they are using now is $1.88 = 1GBP, which means 585.11 is the currency equivalent of $1100. But what if the rate changes during the week?

Anyway, just want to cover all of my bases before placing the bet.

Then just wager a little low, say £575. That'll take care of any fluctuation worries.

And, this was a problem with the last one. CS were telling people they could have $190 for the £100 bet, but then only refunded $188 or something like that. I took $180 so as to never have to think about it and had no problem.

Here's the promotion details and conversions for those not using USD:

I'm not affiliated with Mansion in any way - just found out about the offer and signed up, confirmed it with online support when I did it and kept a copy of it.

I'm new to sports betting, but this looks too good to be true.

Need some help -

You bet $1100 on the Steelers v's Miami using the -5 on the dropdown box. If you lose you get your money back, but I assume if you win you get your stake back plus $1000.

Sorry for being new to this, but I can't see how its possible to lose. Can any of you guys help me understand?

I just got the following email. This one seems to good to be true!!!


Dear Member,

Simply visit the MANSION Sportsbook and place a minimum Point Spread (Handicap)
bet of USD 1,100 (or currency equivalent) to win USD 1,000 on the Pittsburgh Steelers
for their game on Thursday 7 Sept 2006. If your bet is not a winner, MANSION will
refund your losses of USD 1,100 (or currency equivalent) within 3 working days of the
result.

This deal is too good to miss. There’s no better way to kick off the NFL season and
no better place than at MANSION

Don’t miss out

The MANSION Team.

i don't see how they can afford to do this. have they ever had money problems before? this really seems like something a desperate sportsbook would do to get money in their system. i am not saying this is necessarily the case. but i would be a little leary of somebody asking for $1100 now, so that you can get $500 later.
