free payouts aside everyone knows their checks take forever been numerous threads about it...in my opinion it is smarter to take the p2p and find a new shop one that sends its checks in a timely manner more to your liking. otherwise you just have to wait.

file a complaint with sbr see what happens.Comment -
Well, I had heard they were taking about 2 months. But now I am waiting 3 months with no word, so it's getting even worse.Originally posted by bostonboss
I guess I will have to open a complaint soon. Other than this issue, I haven't had any problems with WW. They should at least change the wording on their site to say checks take over 3 months to arrive. And SBR can acknowledge the new reality.Comment -
i agree with you sir. have you spoken to management on the phone or via live help? if so what have they told you?Comment -
The options to withdraw were different for WagerWeb members versus Legends refugees. Let's get that out of the way right now. Legends refugees had no chance of getting a free withdrawal. So p2p wasn't going to be cheap either if you were cashing out.Comment -
this is a false statement. if you are a legendz refugee and have ever deposited into wagerweb you are allowed to get into their rewards program. now if you are merely working on your rollover amount then no you are not entitled to the rewards.Comment -
Most of would us would never have put a dime in wagerweb if it were not for legends folding in the middle of the night. Who in their right mind would put money in wagerweb, when wagerweb already has their money hostage? Seriously. You can't be that dense, or can you?Originally posted by bostonbossComment -
be happy you got a bailout you prick....the people of betislands were not so fortunate.Comment -
sameday p2p and 5 days a week(if you have people to send to) is not holding anyone's money hostage, forcing a 10% deduction of fee's for having to use p2p yes.Originally posted by seaborneqComment -
I have to agree with boston on this one. Seaborneq you seem to be bitching about something you shouldn't. First, you were complaining about not being in their rewards system and now you are complaining about high cost of payouts. You are lucky to have anything. Have you ever made a deposit? I doubt it. Books give bailouts so you will deposit. That's the only reason. They don't do it to allow you to freeload off them. Its good that you beat your rollover and you decided to go even the cheaper route of getting your money. You should of just taken the p2p and been happy you got anything. Now with that being said 2 months is horrible and no book should be taking that amount of time to pay. I never have played there nor would I ever, but being someone who lost almost 25k in 3 books that jumped ship on me with no bailout, I can't stand someone who complains when they do get one and complain about not being in their rewards system or other freebies you think you are entitled to. Once again no one forced you to deposit at legends and when legends went belly up you should of looked at this bailout as a Christmas present and not a splinter in your foot.Comment -

So you are the type who blames the victim for being raped. It's my fault for depositing at legends and legends goes under? Yes, I dare you to tell anyone who lost their money at betisland it us their fault that their money was taken. Obviously you don't understand simple business practices. If you give me your money and I give it to someone else and tell you to go it from them at their prices or demands, would you be mad at me or the person who is holding your money? Oh yeah, but you longer get touch with me so you are left to battle someone you never had any dealings with, or never gave your money. Yes, its easy to sit back and criticize and preach from high when its not your money. You are nothing but a "if I were you I would do..........."bitch. If you haven't had to deal with wagerweb as a legends refugee then stfu.Originally posted by bostonbossComment -
You agree with Boston. But in Boston's words it's your penetrating fault you deposited money with books that went under. Yippy ka yeah mf.Originally posted by tennisnutComment -
not what im saying at all....you should be happy wagerweb gave you a bailout...they didn't have to..don't talk to me about business junior..i own one..do you?Comment -
Businesses fail everyday, and most of them are barely above water. If you think it is relevant that you own a business in this thread, see yourself out. We are all independent contractors in this gambling game. Unless you own a sportsbook that is profitable, you can't tell me shit, and if you do own a profitable sportsbook I still don't want to hear shit from you.Originally posted by bostonbossComment -
i own a profitable business....you seem very uneducated...be happy you got a bailout....id type further but you just cant comprehend..Comment -
they do fail every day and the one you deposited in failed also. Be happy with what you got and don't complain. You should blame yourself and legends not wagerweb. I am sure if you would of deposited to show your gratitude you would be treated differently which is the way it should beComment -
Awwwww. Are you hurt that the guy whose dick you are sucking (BostonButt)made you feel small? Just because you lost 25k at various books doesn't make you an expert on shit, it means you put your money in bad books on the cheap. Don't tell me how lucky I am, talk about how unlucky you are. YOu are depositing in books that didn't even get a bailout. You need to look in the mirror to see why your deposit choices are so shitty.Originally posted by tennisnutComment -
Checks are running late we see here. When payouts are slower at other books is it typical that the books proactively call you and tell you it is running late? Seems nonstandard.Comment -
What they should do is change the timeframe saying checks are taking 90 plus days at this time.Comment -
Also, seems a bit interesting why SBR leaves this in the main forum, yet at times seems overzealous in censoring WW stuff.Comment -
Pink, I think this is a big deal. I don't know how many legends refugees there are, but if we are having to wait 90 days for payouts that is a problem.Originally posted by robmpinkComment -
lol all to save a few dollars......same day p2p..why anyone would wait for a check is beyond me...they will say well im not gambling rent money or I really don't need it right away...but they complain every day that the check hasn't come in....hope a lessoned was learn here....don't take the check option. with that being said 90 days is a long time.Comment -
wagerwen obvoiusly does this by choice not checking checks in a reasonaable timeframe, so it's like get with the programs and pull p2p's. Hell i i love wagerweb as a cash book.Originally posted by bostonbossComment -
To respond to a few of bostonboss's posts. I don't think any of us knew that it was going to take 90 days. But let's assume we did know... we're still saving $175 by waiting 90 days. That might not be much to you but unless you absolutely need the money immediately why not wait a while and save $175? In a related note... feel free to take this Poll. http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...anteed-2k.html Let me guess... you chose the 1K today?Comment -
The whole saving money things blows my mind when we are talking about sports betting gamblers. If somone is concerned with saving a few bucks when it comes to getting paid it must be nerve racking as hell betting on games, you're right, cashout and throw your money in a savings account and quit betting.Originally posted by JohnGalt2341Comment -
To me it all comes down to expected value. If someone is willing to give me +120 on a literal coin flip I will bet it all day long even if I lose 10 in a row. If that same person decides to change the price to -120 I will immediately stop betting on it regardless of whether I am down or ahead. Many gamblers are so in love with a particular bet and gambling itself that if a price changes from +100 to -140 they'll still bet it without even thinking twice. One reason why so many gamblers lose is because they ARE NOT concerned with saving a few bucks. Would you rather have someone give you $1000 today or $1100 a month from today? I'll take the $1100 every time.Originally posted by RedondoComment -
I see your point but for me wagerweb. I deposit for big freeplays that i wager on parlays. So if I have money i'm withdrawling there it's all profit and I get 2 free payouts a month. SO for me it's something I know going in that if I am in the position to withdawl i've already made a 500% return on my money.Originally posted by JohnGalt2341Comment -
yes john cause I know I could invest that money and more than double it in a yr..might just take one day.Originally posted by JohnGalt2341Comment -
If you know a guaranteed way to more than double your money in a year you are a much smarter man than myself. Not many people can do this. How long have you been doing this? If a person started with only $1000 they would have more than a Million dollars in 10 years. In 17 years they would have more than a Billion. That's very impressive.Originally posted by bostonbossComment -
not saying my investments work all the time but have been fairly successful in stocks/real estate/business ventures...ive won some and ive lost some..but would much rather have money in hand than in limbo. I understand some people would rather wait and get more...just my personal preferenceComment -
Sea, I agree with you 100%. A month is f'ing long in my book. The problem is the timeframes posted and it going way over. They need to change that.Originally posted by seaborneq
I don't think it is a money issue. However, they could invest some funds into a better check processor.Comment -
The main reason you don't deposit money in wagerweb when they already hold your money for rollovers is the exact reason I was burned by youwager last month. Long story short. I was offered a deposit bonus by youwager for a march madness special, details are not important. I had already completed the rollover already in the account. I say yes I'll deposit, but I want to withdraw so that the new deposit doesn't affect the already completed rollover balance. I am told don't withdraw or I can't give you the deal. The new deposit will be calculated separately. I am good with this. I go to make a withdrawal and guess what? The new money was combined with the already completed rollover money. Now the guy who offered the bonus won't respond to my emails. Just flat out lied to me. That is why you don't deposit money when you already have a rollover requirement. I don't know anyone who would rather do 2 rollovers instead of one. I know I now hate it. I was duped on that one, the same thing would have happened at wager web.Comment -
As far as being thankful to WW for bailing out us Legends refugees... I am thankful but at the same time, I assume Legends gave them a lot of money to do it. Legends wanted out (for legal reasons), but they didn't want to stiff. It's silly to assume WW did it without getting paid by Legends.
I am on day 99 now and I have not heard anything from WW. In addition, I have check requests that are 90, 80 and 58 days old.Comment -
