WSEX player was informed checks take up to 20 business days

WSEX (SBR rating D+) accounting gave a misleading time-line to a player that asked how long his $2155 check requested on May 4th would take to receive. He was told that the normal regular mail check delivery time is up to 20 business days. After 20 business days, WSEX told the player the delay was caused by a switch in banking processors. In reality, WSEX payment delays began much sooner than the purported processor change; WSEX was first downgraded in April of last year for their payout issues. WSEX continued its slide over the next several months and to date has fallen to the mark of D+, slow-paying 44 players $246,477. WSEX has yet to clear the payout request of a user who attempted to withdraw his balance in October of 2009. WSEX management claimed players that wrote to SBR via sportsbook complaint form would be placed on "priority lists". It is unclear how many additional users are encountering payout delays. SBR asks any player to fill out the complaint form or write directly to help@sportsbookreview.com with their payout statuses and account numbers.
