    What is this Mickey Mouse stuff?

    So I stop by this morning to pick up a P2P payout from BetPhoenix for the max. After enduring the woman looking at me like I'm some sort of criminal, then trying to give her a sender's name I can't even fakking pronounce, and finally waiting about 5 minutes for her to come out of the back room, she comes out with this:



    Half the god damn payment in fives and tens! It took her another 5 minutes just to count it off in front of me. Now I've got a 4 inch wad of money in my pocket that ain't even worth a dime! How am I supposed to hide this from my wife?

    Place the money into the large gaps found in the frontal region of your underwear.

    You went first thing this morning.....i.e. They had barely any cash on hand yet and they gave you what they could. There's bigger tragedies in the world. I'm sure you'll manage.

    This was a grocery store with a bank branch on site right next to the service desk. How about all the money from YESTERDAY's sales? And yes, I probably will manage but I'm going to have to get drunk or something to deal with it for now.

    Oh I'm happy. It was actually quite quick too - 24hrs from time of request. I can't really complain about that.

    Then why not just stop by the bank and have them give you larger bills?

    .

    The bank branch located inside the store has nothing to actually do with the grocery store and their finances. It's two separate businesses. Next time, if you're going to go and pick up a decent amount of cash. Either dont go in the morning or go to a check cashing place. Stores/Grocery stores have already accounted for and reconciled the cash from the day before and set it aside for deposit (if it wasnt already picked up). They wont/cant go and take from it for the current days business. Every store/register has a set amount of starting cash for the day's business, some larger then others. Forget some small bills, I've had it happen where they couldnt even pay me out because they're want enough cash on hand yet in the morning. Now I always go to a super-Walmart or a check cashing place to not have that issue.

    Congrats on your payout. Good to here BP is still paying and fast. I wasnt sure what to make of them anymore.

    Now there's an idea and quite honestly I didn't even think of this because I was in a bit of a hurry. See how smart you have to be to get a moderator job at SBR?

    I wish it was. There's nothing like the feeling of that first payout from a sportsbook thinking it is free money. Gamblers remember their first payout like it was their first piece of ass. Mine was from Aces Gold. I hit an 8 team teaser for around $1700. Then they went out of business a couple years later and stole my remaining balance. That was back in the late 90's when you were probably still sucking your thumb.

    I usually go to the SWM too but it's in the opposite direction of my business so I was trying to save some time. Lesson learned, I guess. I've never had any problem with BP paying. This is my 2nd P2P from them and I had the ref.no. on both within 24hrs of request - of course I'm not asking for 5 figure payouts either.
