    BookMaker Withdrawal

    Does anyone have any experience with the following options?

    - Card: Seems like a lot of fees attached to this (Withdrawal, activation, cancelation etc). but also seems pretty safe
    - Cheque: $50 fee, but not sure how easy it is to cash a 4 figure cheque from them.

    Thanks!

    Hi john1689,

    Thanks for your inquiry. We have no negative feedback on cheque or card payout options from Bookmaker players.

    Also, have you considered using bitcoin?

    Hi john,

    Bookmaker offers bitcoin withdrawals. You might not have the option turned on at the moment on your account. There is a dedicated phone number for bitcoin that you can use to speak with a bitcoin representative with Bookmaker: 1-855-535-4947.

    Let us know.

    Bookmaker withdrawals are very quick and easy. Use bet points instead of cash to cover the fees.

    As for the cheque method, Last four or five times I have used it has been max payout and on my door in a 2-3 days. Have always taken to one of my banks and usually no problems.

    One time a few months ago I got a bad one and I called them and they put the money back in my account and process was started over with no issues.

    I've had a few max check payouts with them in last couple months...sometimes their checks will come from Canadian bank and then you have to wait a few days for funds to be made available in your account. But, never had to send one back or one not successfully reach account. Just FYI.

    The Canadian checks were notorious for not being accepted as deposit. I always had to show proof of the check ripped up, and then it would take a few days or so for them to credit my account back. I felt it was a tactic to get me to "keep playing" so they would avoid a payout.

    I used a BTC withdrawal last week, no issues.

    Use the card option it's easy. It's around 8-9 bucks per 1000 but if you're cashing out big withdrawals who really cares

    I use pay2card. Takes a little while...usually 2 weeks from when you request it until it hits your account, so it's somewhat slow....however, it's safe and Bookmaker always pays so I can't complain
