5dimes done with US market Sept 25th *Merged Threads*

[johnnyvegas13]

I really, really messed up by procrastinating on that betanysports transfer as I had some great futures...I was also denied the transfer. At one point the rep assured me that the 3rd party American administrator that would oversee paying people after the 25th would allow my futures bets to stand. Then I stupidly asked if I could tell people on sbr about this and then the guy went back to discuss it with the wagering team and returned to tell that all wagers will be voided after the 25th. So I'm not sure if the possibility of futures bets standing exists and I just blew it...

Same here but glad they r at least refunding futures now

[JIBBBY]

The Greek was always an A+ book. 5 Dimes reputation not even close.

I remember when the Greek cut off American bettors.. Same shit different pile. I was a regular back in the day with The Greek book.. I was pissed then and I'm pissed now..

Books should just send you the money without you even having to request it. Futures refunded also immediately.. Should probably mail us a gift basket with an apology letter also.. That's the correct way to do it.

[Capybara]

So since it said on there it's TEMPORARY, does that mean they're re-jiggering some stuff to get ready to be a big U.S. player when it's legal across the country and not just in the few states it's legal in now?

Or do I grossly misunderstand things?

[Doug tushyterror]

So 5Dimes won't do account transfers to BetAnySports any longer according to their live chat I just got off, see my screenshot below. I should have asked what sportsbooks they are allowing transfers to but didn't. I found it funny the live chat rep I got "Dave" has a pic of a white guy for the avatar, doubt that's legit. They probably force their Costa Rican customer service reps to use fake names and avatars to make the Americans feel comfortable.

They're not transferring to any other sports books. After a 45 minute hold finally got on the line with somebody from wagering. He told me that plus future bets decided after 9/25 will only be refunded if you win your bet. If you lose your shit out of luck and if you win your shit out of luck cuz all you get is your what you risked back(NO WINNINGS). Nothing to see here folks just a good old fashioned FREEROLL.

Tony was pretty belligerent to the US govt in his day. I'm going to say no. Could be wrong.

If they were broke why would they close down during the biggest deposit week of the year?

And I guess we'll never know the whole truth.

I don’t believe this

Maybe u mean futures will b refunded after 9/25 as long as they haven’t lost

much less harsh and what I was originally told

[yahoonino]

Ask for a BTC address from us. I agree.

Things going on behind the scenes. None which are good. That is obvious

They aren't broke. This week they would have made a killing in deposits. I think the US govt is going after them. The timing makes me believe this is the case. If they plan to relaunch like they say they are, than it would be in their best interest not to screw people now.

[capitalist pig]

Everyone will get all their money relax you can’t all at once request it


Same with the bank and 5000 people went in you’re not getting the money real fast

Maybe so everyone gets paid, but if they knew they were gonna close shop to the USA they should have prepared and had enough staff ready for the mass payout requests that they knew would happen today.

They were/are at least a day off:


News of the account suspensions was swirling on Twitter by late afternoon on Sunday, forcing the company to send a notice to customers ahead of schedule — it had initially planned to send the notice at midnight Tuesday.

There was little information available other than the notice sent to customers (pictured above), though multiple industry sources suggest 5Dimes will attempt to enter the U.S. market in some capacity. Whether it will be able to do so under its own brand, or in some fashion following a corporate restructuring, or simply will leverage its large database of U.S. clients, is anyone’s guess at this point. When lawmakers, regulators and industry stakeholders malign the millions of dollars flowing into the illegal offshore sports betting market, well, 5Dimes is one of the biggest there is.

“While the intent of this is good, this brings to light additional questions of who will be their U.S. partner and how they will pass suitability on a state by state basis,” said consultant Brendan Bussmann of Global Market Advisors. “For those that have operated online or fantasy sports illegal in the past, some regulators have a long memory and it may take some time before they will even be able to be licensed or operate.”

This penetrating sucks. I had contacted chat yesterday too. The only reason I didn't have the transfer done then and there was because I told them I already had a BAS account. They said in that case, I would have to send an email with my account info to get the transfer done. The chat agent could only do it if they were creating a new account. Of course, today I finally get a reply saying it's no longer available.

[dxp]

it made me think of what you once told me: "in five years the 5dimeleone family will be completely legitimate."

that was seven years ago.

Criminal if they pull that stunt.

Isn't the solution to this simple? Refund your wagers and withdraw before 9/25, thus taking away any ability to free roll? They're telling everyone to get out by 9/25, so why play around?

[PD77]

They’ll just sell the 5dimes name to an American company. 5dimes died the same day Tony did, they’ve just continued what he started with zero innovation since, NONE. Except for their racist Twitter boy.

Exactly

[Scarface63]

Has anyone successfully requested a refund for parlays with remaining open/pending future legs? I'm assuming that only the open/pending legs are voided and parlays are paid out with the winning legs. Can anyone confirm?

I was just told via chat the whole wager would be canceled. I have 3 legs in on a 4 teamer parlay pending the election. Looks like I’ll only get my $50 risk back... 🤷🏼*♂️ Should be reduced to a winning 3 team parlay.

[Regul8er]

So they said they wont pay my mlb future bets that are certainly sure winners at this point. So Im 100% assuming any future that is dead at this point they are giving a full refund on? Otherwise its a lose lose for every player

It absolutely should be reduced to a winning 3 team parlay. That's fukked up, obviously 5Dimes doesn't give a shit about their American customer base coming back to them . Even if they do reopen to American customers in the future, does anyone really want to come back to them after the way they handled this whole process?

They only gave a few weeks notice as well to all of us that they are dropping their American client base..wtf . Good thing I logged into my 5Dimes account to start my football betting. I haven't logged into my account for months since I only bet football. Imagine the Americans that are going to login to their 5Dimes account after Sept 30th only to see a message pop up that says all the money is gone and that you have to go through a 3rd party claims administrator to get your money back . I bet that process will be absolute shit as well.

IF only someone warned of this happening

[johnnyvegas13]

I just got off live chat they said any future not meant to b graded before sept 25 will b refunded soon

That's exactly what I told him.. I need the refund today cuz if the Bucks lose today or before I get refunded I'm getting freerolled. And this isnt me being shady trying to get out of a bunch of dead Bucks Futures considering their plight. I had no problem letting these bets play($7600) out considering I deposited 2K on Saturday to bet on the Bucks down 0-3 at +950(1K to win 9500) & 1K on MIL/ LAL & MIL/LAC Future. They shouldn't have even been posting futures prices as late as Saturday. What's funny is they took down all NBA Futures today and now looking at it they put them back up.

Basically Tony was to 5dimes what Steve Jobs was to Apple. Now they're stuck with a bunch of Tim Cook's.

yes

i said this bro

If you've been saying this for a while now I really wish I wouldve listened. Considering I live in NY, offshore is my only option & I'm not about to take the path train to Hoboken like some people I know to get their FanDuel bets in. Everybody's favorite Covid Governor, roosterlicker Cuomo for some fucken reason has has his panties in a bunch about legalizing sports gambling where at least you have 10% net winners but has no problem with the lottery where you have 99.99% net losers.
