    2-4 business days is the average.

    Your application will be confirmed or denied today.

    any reason why it would be declined? I've been pro before, just renewing now.

    6-8 months there is a form the Mods will send you with which you will need to provide 20 reliable references all which will be throughly investigated.

    Good Luck.

    My God, Bookie, why would you be so naive? You'll still be able to play in Bet Islands. Billy Walters is no SBR Pro. No disrespect intended, but does that make you the pro and Walters the non-pro? Come on, man!

    as long as you didnt let your membership 'completely' expire- you can renew it with a 200+ balance at the book that you used the first time. if you had let your pro membership expire, you need a new 200+ dollar deposit in a new account following the instructions.

    some people dont know this and they get declined.
