                  They stopped people from getting Moneybookers cash and unless u are a relative newcomer u can't get cash from the few books that are still available. Looks like they are sqeezing the non-usa old timers to where the points will be worthless to us. Not good strategy.

                        I think they are just doing upgrades to the store right now, that's why certain features are unavailable. I'm from Canada and successfully purchased sportsbook cash a few days ago, but I see that it is gone now along with the category menu at the left hand side of the store.

                          Hopefully just some Store adjustments or that's penetrated up.

                              Moneybookers cash went away January 1. If u are an old timer u belonged to the books already that are in the SBR store. The squeeze continues to make the points worthless except for the new sign ups. In wake of the BI scandal u would think they would be trying to spruce up that image. guess not!

                                Things have never and never will get better for the player. Not in books, with points, inside or outside the US. It just is what it is. We are all pawns in this game.

                                      SBR cash is there, looks like a 10% increase

                                      Is BookMaker cash still needed since all the non US customers were transferred to CRIS, and US customers can't buy sportsbook cash anyway. Or does the Bookmaker cash get transferred to players CRIS account?

                                          What's the point of having contests/poker/etc if you can't use any of the points?

                                                Its actually worse than whats been said. Take my example. I lost Bodog SBR cash since I had not linked thru SBR. Other books I had previously signed up for without SBR Link, thus not eligible to get cash thru them. So...... I signed up with DSI thru SBR link for an SBR contest and figued that would allow me to either get DSI cash or Moneybookers cash. Ok, SBR Lou says "DSI says you didn't sign up thru link here" end of story!! lololol
                                                Now they discontinue MB cash. So even if u sign up thru SBR link all they have to do is say you didn't. No cash for you. Points worthless to someone not in USA and with no mail service. Not a good way to start the New Year SBR. It would be nice new year surprise for SBR to figure out how to make this situation right.

                                                I mean, why stop payng out MB? It says you can still BUY SBR points thru MB, just not SELL. Sounds like a Seinfeld episode.

                                                          LMAO if SBR closed down the free points it would lose more people from this place than BI scandal ever would. Even if SBR came right out and told people, they stole your money point blank it still wouldnt matter as much as if they took your precious free points from you.

Looks like they are sqeezing the non-usa old timers to where the points will be worthless to us. Not good strategy.

I'm from Canada and successfully purchased sportsbook cash a few days ago, but I see that it is gone now along with the category menu at the left hand side of the store.
                                                            kat saying one thing , OTL saying he purchased just a few days ago. rumours abound best thing to get real facts is talk to Lou. people contradicting one another all over the forum every day without knowing the facts. at least i can get just bet cash if this is true . but not for awhile since im in loan repayin mode.

What has been happening is people in a far away land are using the points to order stuff from American stores. Items are costing more to ship to Eastern Europe than they are for SBRstore to buy. We want our guys in Eastern Europe to be as happy as anyone, but it's when a lot of guys who aren't really interested in SBRforum content are in it for the freebies we gotta do whats best for all. Bettors want sportsbook cash and we can keep the prices the lowest by streamlining the store.

So, you get your badge for $30 and if there were more to bring you to $100, we'll have a badge for you for that next level.
