On August 1st, Dimeline Sportsbook manager Robert Wilde informed a player his payout was delayed for more than a month as punishment for critical remarks made against Dimeline Sportsbook. The player had filed a payout complaint against Dimeline (SBR Rating D+) June 24th. The unprofessional behavior is not new for Dimeline. The sportsbook has called players to voice their displeasure after the players shared negative experiences on gambling forums. Dimeline slow-pay complaints have been received through the summer. Players also report customer service LiveChat being deactivated after repeatedly asking for payout updates through the service. DLS has confirmed in the past that they have turned off this method of communication for some users. Dimeline does not offer a customer service phone line.
Dimeline to player: “Yes I do think you have waited long enough. The only reason we didn't pay you is because you made incorrect statements at SBR in a negative way. At the time you had waited about 12 days for your payout. You went to SBR and said you have been waiting for 30 days when that is incorrect. I will get your payout sent next week."
