How many people probably deposited into this place during this time? LOL u would think u would say September or something but January almost a year later and this what you say.

    They have always paid me same day. 1 free p2p payout per month. Limits are on the lower side.

    Surprised to hear this.

    Maybe the player only filed a complaint recently?

    I'm not sure you're reading correctly that this is the third notice on this particular slow-pay. But during this time no other feedback has been received.

    No i remember now reading something last year about a slow pay I think the guy was named Brandon or something but I always thought it was fixed after the few month delay. When i played with them last year i never had an issue but i have not had the urge for some reason to play at the moment, i think it was because i was just trying to get around to it. I really want to know how this goes and i feel we should have had more heads up on this because let me tell u I could have easily deposited into this place good amounts of $.

    I am reading correctly and i just feel like we should have heard more on this without the long stretch of silence. Thanks for updating us but please next time we need to know more faster because I could have really easily gotten caught in a mess here if they are screwing people. U know how many emails and phone calls i have gotten from them for this football season? This is just crazy because I thought they were standup!!!!

    Thats why you should stick with top tier books

    the First Fidelity group gave me a 15K payout without a problem, 5 separate maxed checks payment process in a span of 3 weeks

    Some of us play at all those books too but we also like to play at places like this because more money is involved. This place in particular has things that no other book offers.

    I had a problem with this creep outfit last year. It took them 6 weeks to get my wire to me because of "so called issues with the bank" then the payout was supposed to be free and they charged me for it.

    Keep balances small...guys play at these C and D books for bonuses and weak lines thats all and they they pay the price down the road. These books are not funded like the big books and gamble with the post up money by throwing out off numbers.

    Hmm, you seemed to move much quicker on the Dimeline sports one player slow pay. Why's that? BTW, I do agree w/ Legion here. Almost a year before a downgrade is laughable.

    Actually I could remember another two books where you acted like downgrading them off of a single complaint was the top priority. You moved at breakneck speeds.

    This, or don't play at the C and D books at all. If some random-ass low-traffic book that's obviously not raking in tons of cash is offering a better bonus/line than you can get at 5d/bookmaker/pinnacle/heritage then you should be suspicious. A 5 cent advantage on a line isn't worth a 50% chance that you'll have trouble ever seeing your money

    I didn't say they don't pay, I said you're taking a major risk that you'll have trouble getting paid, especially if it's a substantial amount. Imo the chance and stress aren't worth it, but if you want to take that chance then don't bitch when you don't get paid. People are giving random websites that look pretty (and some that look terrible) thousands of their hard earned $ when they have no idea who runs it (usually some random degenerate) and no idea of the site's record of paying out. Sports bettors should understand the concept of an unprofitable risk, and that's it

    I agree with practically everything you are saying. What I don't agree with is how SBR has selective interests. They make videos about using their rating system and don't be a fool, blah, blah, blah. They get wind of a slow pay and if they have it in for a book they attack. There is not one good reason for this complaint to stretch almost one year before the book is downgraded. The pick and choose attitude of these bookgraders is what should be the topic.

    See here is the thing. I'm almost certain I read an offical SBR post from one of them that the people behind this book had "deep pockets". Ok, maybe that was the case at that point, but if this "deep pockets" backed out at some point I think it is Sbr's duty to report or act quicker. If these"deep pockets" just backed out and that is the reason for the downgrade, my apologies.

    legions, I didn't wait that long. they told me they were having issue with that processor method. initially, I wasn't able to cancel. they said it was being processed and they're just waiting for the processor company to send it. around 2 months into the process, somehow they were able to cancel the originally courier method. and i was able to get my 5k by p2p methods. it took an additional 3 weeks to get the full amount because the p2p method have limits per week.

    One of the big reasons why I moved to Las Vegas Nevada. They didn't pay me.

    It sucks when you don't get paid, and I will never online gamble again, because of books like this one that scammed me.

    I don't mind if I say this online, if I met anybody that worked for them, I will make it the worst day of their life. A day they wouldn't forget.

    Tell the truth. Aren't u the guy who won more off a no deposit $50 fp that only pays out a max of $250 and thought u were gonna get $1000? Yes i'm sure it was u because i remember that pic of yours.
