    So did Sportsbook.com cheat anyone else on here?

    So Have Sportsbook.com cheated anyone else on here? Or is it just me? I won about $800 and some change recently and now Im getting the run around. Am I over reacting? Should I keep submitting the same docs over and over again? Are they known for cheating people?

    Can someone with experience with them tell me if they scam people?

    Yes, Sportsbook.com (SBR rating D-) is currently experiencing several payout issues as of late. Here is the latest news that SBR has on this establishment. If you need some assistance please feel free to fill out a complaint form and one of my colleagues will be more than happy to assist you sir.

    I don't think they will rip you off for $800, now if it was 8K then that might be a different story.

    Best advice is as soon as you get your winnings to stay far away from them and all there skin sites, much much better places to play at.

    You'll get paid, I once had to wait 3 months for payment and they never even offered me a bonus

    If you're sharp on the casino bonuses they pay, sharp in the sportsbook they steal, average/lucky in the sportsbook they stall

    I remember their were many complaints filed back in the day also. Were you part of the wave of players who were effected by the correlated parlays fiasco or was it a entirely different incident sir?

    Requested $450 withdrawal about 4 weeks ago. Got a message saying I should do a check instead of my wire transfer because they were backed up. I wrote back to please stick with the original wire. They basically said it might take a couple of weeks. I got the wire 2 days later. The wire amount was only $402.96 instead of the $450. Also I know my bank didn't take it because Wells Fargo charged me $16 for the wire. Have sent in a message asking where my other $47.04 went. Anyone ever have this happen?

    They flat out ripped me for a little over 700 bucks. They have a D- for a reason and it isn't simply because they don't pay for adverts here.

    Yes it was correlated parlays that "justified" them taking my entire balance. Parlaying same game sides with totals is what I was "guilty" of--allowable bets at every Book. My theft complaint remains open at SBR.

    That's what I thought it was but wasn't 100% sure though. I remember several players losing big balances on this dispute.

    What up, Aggie? When you coming back to CR?

    Just to be clear, you're not insinuating that I am lying, correct?

    I had the same problem last week by the wire transfer for $650.00 I was given the run around and the payment processor story of 4-6 weeks as well. I canceled my wire transfer and requested a check on Friday the 23rd of September. The request was processed September 26th and the Check sent via Fed Ex on September 27th with tracking number. The check should be here in the states by the 30th based on Fed Ex website.

    Dear XXXX,

    We refer to your account and are pleased to provide you with the tracking number for your withdrawal for $XXX.XX.

    FedEx Tracking Number is: 234324232243 (fake tracking number I made up).

    If you have any questions regarding this or any other matter do not hesitate to contact us.

    Yours sincerely,
    The Withdrawals Department

    Received a check today 09/29/2011 from Sportsbook.ag in the amount I requested for withdrawal. I got the check in one week from the day when I requested my payout on their website. Lets hope the check doesnt bounce.

    First book I ever played at (2002) and they would consistently do this to me and my brother. It took me almost a year to get my last 1G.

    I always try to post in these sportsbook.com threads to tell folks to stay away. They have their good runs and then shit like this happens.

    Well at bet247.com.au they just vanished and the act grc who regulate them refuse to comment, I am owed 10k. Apparently they were taken over by tomwaterhouse.com but he is not honouring my account either ?

    I've been attempting to pry my $2.5k from them since June. When I withdrew $179 in August it arrived in about 3 days.

    I guess they don't like paying when it's more than a couple hundred.

    they want you to leave it in because they say it will save you from re-depositing, thus saving you money in the long or short run. they do not like customes who request payouts. they need that money to make their payroll and want you to continue to bet and deposit if you lose, but just want you to leave it in if you win.
