I put in a request of £3000 on 14th May 2010, I asked for it to be sent via moneybookers. I've been really patient with bethorizon but now they have missed too many deadlines. The latest deadline was set by the operations manager who said I would have half of my withdrawal by Tuesday 6th June, his last email to me on this date was "probably tomorrow". Well tomorrow came and I emailed him again, this got ignored.
