[DontTailMe]

Guys, I must be reading posts from a different SBR. They've been against 5Dimes' handling of futures for a while now.

You aren't reading different posts. You are reading the same posts, but you are mis-reading the complaint.
From the first thread you quoted:
Thanks for the update but this is putting things way too nicely. To only state the issues with futures is that the bets aren't being honored, and should be graded according to the current market value on them instead of being refund, totally misses the issue that they are grading losses on markets that they will not grade any winners for.

It would've been nice to see it stated that 5Dimes stance is that they will refund wagers on markets with open bets, but will not refund the bets that lost on the same market. While I agree the issue should only be that open bets currently should be handled appropriately, we cannot gloss over what they are actually doing.

What a shitshow...

I've read some posts from moderators in this forum as old as 3-4 months ago saying "5D as solid as ever", "no need to cashout due to covid, money all safe offshore"

How do these people sleep at night? Is the salary really worth the guilty conscience?

These business are all ponzi schemes

Yeah. Just look at this thread. I actually got banned for this post, for 'too much trolling'. Mostly I just spoke honestly about my experiences with Sportsbooks, yet was banned for 'too much trolling' following this post. Maybe out of line, and deserving of something. But sadly I was completely muzzled. That thread pretty much says everything you need to know about the writing that was on the wall.

I certainly don't agree with your statements about all these businesses being ponzi schemes. But the 5Dimes condemnation should be very strong following how supported they were. Only a couple people in these threads would throw support 5Dimes way, met with agreeable responses from staff.

[steadfast]

Got an idea. What do you think? Best way to get my money out of 5dimes.

I should take my entire 5dimes balance & bet on

Gerald Meerschaert

+320

I should goto the brick & mortar US casino and bet HUGE amount.

Khamzat Chimaev

-390 (or whatever line real casino has)

Could salvage my money, since Khamzat should crush. Or I just painted myself in a bigger corner.

Thoughts? Ideas?

It's not a bad idea...The only problem I see is if the dog wins, you're going to be sweating bullets trying to pull out a much bigger balance from 5Dimes, and a 3-1 favorite is no sure thing....I'd try to find a 10-1 dog and do the same thing. Give yourself a 90%+ chance that the 5dimes balance goes to zero. Just know that there is still that small possibility that you would have a massive headache on your hand if the dog pulls out a miracle.

Just made my second check request, glad I did it today as I had no idea today was the last day for that. Will have to set myself up for BTC since I have about $400 leftover plus $300 on a +185 fighter for this weekend.



I didn’t hear about that. What’s that about? Or do you mean it takes 48+ hours for the check to clear? I sat on my first check over 48 hours, but it did clear.

5Dimes stated more than once to me during the last week that I would have 48 hours from the time Fedex delivered the check to cash/deposit the check, the chat manager that called me and sorted out my payout reaffirmed this but honestly could not tell me when the clock starts considering I may be required to sign for the Fedex package, at this point I'm just along for the ride and hoping it all works out.

[bubba]

still refusing to grade my futures/ or give me an explanation of when they plan to. madness

Can you cash these checks at check cash store?

Yep, it's a little crazy. Going to do a few for small amounts. Say risk $500 for $100 on some games. Maybe some close spreads. Worth couple tries. Salvage something.

[DoucheBagWhoBets]

Is there any point or value of me bugging 5dimes today, again?

I know what they will say..

"Sir, you're already in the Queue couple times"
"Sir we are really busy"
"Sir, everything will be graded, rest assured."
"Sir, all monies will be sent".
"Sir, blah-blah"

[DoucheBagWhoBets]

For all the people not getting paid. Who will be the mystery 3rd party after the 25th?

Choices:
1) There won't be a need for 3rd party, because they're not paying
2) 3rd party will be some schmuck outta some Democratic big city named: NeverPayYou.com
3) 3rd party will send some whacked out check for 10% of the real amount. "Sorry sir, I records showed you are only entitled to $83, not $8,300.
4) You'll get some fake looking check in the snail mail, but the check will actually get lost in your junk mail of newspaper and Trump/Biden flyers.
5) When you finally get a check in snail mail from CreditRapistsCheckCompany of Miami, the check will bounce.

[scottgodson1985]

waiting 9 days now payout for $8k, am i ever gonna get the cash

[spro23]

Yea I'm afraid the supposed 3rd party is just a way for them to play dumb and act like it's not their problem and liability anymore.

[Sam Odom]

Seems like mixed signals from 5Dimes... at times they seem like they will payout all balances then other times not

Hope in the end it turns out OK for us bettors

[HockeyRocks]

My process on taking cash took less than 10 days. Only about 1100.00 bucks. I had to forward the front of my CC's, the one's i used to fund my account showing the numbers, my drivers license and a copy of a utility bill showing my name, address etc. The ck arrived today via FedEx Express and i was NOT required to sign for it.. The ck is drawn on a Canadian Bank.

Please point out where SBR is disagreeing with your problem. They are clearly calling out 5Dimes' handling of pending futures. You are choosing to interpret that very narrowly so as to not include your concern. I don't know why. If 5Dimes had carried out things according to SBR's recommendation, your issue would not exist.

It's a terrible idea.

~76% chance he gets his money out. ~24% chance he ends up with a MUCH bigger problem.

Just wait and see what happens. People are reporting getting paid.

[Mike Huntertz]

waiting 9 days now payout for $8k, am i ever gonna get the cash

I've also waited 9days for a confirmation e-mail.

[DoucheBagWhoBets]

To all the players bitching about Email Confirmation, Front/Back ID's, Credit Card pictures, some penetrating form. That's par for the course. There's has to be some security.

I'm double-hosed(as of today). Been waiting since the beginning of the announcement, what's that 12+ days to have my pending futures graded. Trump/Biden. Not graded. NFL futures, season hadn't even started, not graded. NHL, MLB, NBA. What is the deal?
Waiting for my BTC for week. This is bullshit.

Just send the money. Press a button on their end.

[ABEHONEST]

Confirmed just now again!

This chat-lady is far more brighter than the one I talked to, 2 days ago.
She firmly stated: All parlay values will be graded and paid, as will any parlays that have no losers in them, as soon as possible, hopefully by the 21st.
All will be paid fairly.

So, give these workers a break but not the corporation, they deserve nothing except to be exposed as the dirty company they turned into, practically overnight.
They could have held on til after the elections or even to the SB.
Why did they not?

[GoldenBears]

Requested at 9/12 at 7pm via BTC, and then called in immediately to confirm, 6 days still waiting

I didn't have to call to get my last BTC payout. I just responded to the email. What # are we supposed to call after requesting a BTC payout?

[Starion]

I'm about 100hours from my request and nothing yet.

[Slowbalt]

I am at 110 hours and waiting.

[DU46]

182 hours and counting here...

[johnnyvegas13]

Has anyone not gotten payed before

chill

i only feel for anyone who still has futures pending ...

[Nittany Lion]

Everyone in this thread be like....



Took me 9 days to get paid, just relieved I don't have to mess with that bullshit no more. Best of luck to everyone else, I can't wait to see the shit show after Sept 30th for this third party claims administrator, I have a feeling it's gonna be even more of a nightmare for people that wait until then to get paid out.

[Slowbalt]

Futures are going to be graded accordingly on the 21st is what I have heard.

[fadeeazy]

It's just a stressful situation where something takes 3 days max is now taking a week+.

I'm sure everyone can use that money no how big or small the amount.

[HedgeHog]

Yea I'm afraid the supposed 3rd party is just a way for them to play dumb and act like it's not their problem and liability anymore.

I agree 100%, 3rd party means confiscation with deniability.

[DontTailMe]

You don'y HAVE to call. When you request a payout from 5D, you always get a verification email, and you sometimes get a verification phone call as well. People are calling 5D to complete the phone part, just in case...to get that possible step out of the way.

If you got an email without phone call first, you are on track. The call always comes first.

bitcoin payouts should not take 10+ days especially if all deposits were made by bitcoin

[redclaw32]

Has anyone took their action to BAS? How do we feel about giving up last 4 digits of our Social Security number?

[Tbe123123]

I just received my BTC payout.

Requested 9/9/20 at 3:00 p.m.
