Is matchbook in financial trouble ?

[ABEHONEST]

Still waiting for my check among other things ?
It's only been around 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 weeks !

NOW...there phone # isn't working ,and I tried several times ?

[MartinBlank]

Can anyone comment on this one?

Abe dialing the wrong number?

Anyone else having these payout delays with Match?

[pat venditto]

Only time I took a payout from matchbook I got my check in a week.

[Dank_Fire]

Get on the live chat Abe and see whats up, Ive tried calling them before and there phones where down or something. Im sure your check should arrive soon

They do not deserve any more of my time trying to reach them.
I have turned in a "serious" complaint with SBR explaining my situation .

Thanks for your interest !

[MartinBlank]

I gotta see how this one plays out.

[KC]

Got a check fedex in 3 days, they email you the tracking number as soon as they have it, Matchbook is excellent.

[DrStale]

Thinkin this might just be a fluke thing with Abe. Would be shocking if one of the top books out there was in danger.

[Fishhead]

Abe---it takes 5 weeks for checks to arrive in Australia.........at least that is what some other Aussies have stated.

Hmmm is Matchy the book you're consulting for Fishy?

Matchy needs no consulting help.............

[Johnny 55]

I request the regular check that costs $9, reaches me in about 4 days, never had a problem, they are first class.

[Sam Odom]

FedEx is the only way to go for me, NO PROBLEMS

[tltaylor89]

Matchy is in financial trouble if you leave the opinion to Nicky Santoro.I've gotten a 2000 check just today don't sweat too much Abe you might get it today

Thanks Fishead !
Well here is a "ripply believe it or not"...the check came by registered mail about an hour ago !
Never saw mail delivered this late ?
Unfortunately for me ..I missed the mailman,but I am sure I will pick it up tomorrow at the Post Office .
Bad luck of having a "new" postman ,who did not make enough effort to catch me .The old one ,no doubt, would have !

I did complain "strongly" to MB about having to take this long[regular mail] ,damn .
I am pretty sure it's been 4 weeks or more since I requested the payout ?
And there was another controversy that I won't go into, that made the situation more dramatic !

So MATCHBOOK has been redeemed ,but I don't recommend any payout by regular mail !
And their phones are now working !
I had called to see if they could cancel payment on the mystery check, but the catch would be ....a $ 30 charge,forget that ,I hate service charges !
Maybe I am still having paranoid thoughts since BETCASCADE shafted me ![so far]

[Sam Odom]

(Maybe stupid) Question: Does FedEx deliver to Australia from MB??

Here in the states it costs 40 dollars and I will get it in 2 business days if requested early morning.

[durito]

You are in australia?

Where did they mail the check from?

Why didn't use just use an e-wallet?

It costs me $110 to fedex something to/from the USA from Colombia 2 business days, I can't imagine what it is to auz (dhl is much cheaper though)

Abe, move back to the mainland!

I am thinking seriously of moving to the Island of Antigua !

just to clear something up, i NEVER said Matchy was in trouble, i just said they are greedy with their commission and their volume has gone down cause they suck now..


if i thought they were in financial trouble, i'd not be giving them the action i am giving them now, TRUST ME..

[Slim]

Creditwagering never has a problem. They just load it on your debit card and you go to the ATM. I hate books that send you checks that are 50/50 to bounce.

[jjgold]

I think Matchbook might be for sale

[wacked]

I don't understand the lack of information on the post and the failure to say you are in Australia and you selected regular mail. Next time you might want to put all the information in your original post. You did just join a few month ago btw.

The topic should of stated....
"Matchbook slow REGULAR Mail delivery to Australia? Phones down?"

That's a fail on your end Abe for the topic and lack of info.

[tltaylor89]

I had to get nicky in on this he's all things Matchy

[Nicky Santoro]

you see, this is what i mean. i just looked at matchy and wanted to bet late games.. i see now there are 4 games left on the board..
now this is what pisses me off about them.

for the 4 games, you need to click on NL games to see 2 of them.. then click BACK button, and then click AL games now to look at the other 2 games..

now why can't they just put the 4 games together on one screen. i hate all this fukkin button pressing for nothing.

that's careless on their part.. that place is so disorganized..

GOOD STUFF ABE!

I am thinking seriously of moving to the Island of Antigua !

Don't do it Abe,instead if you can afford it go to the Cayman Islands i would be there now"as in yesterday"if i could afford it,otherwise try the Bahamas(Grand Bahama)instead.Have you or anybody else try to get MATCHBOOK the pay with a bank wire?

[DogPlayer]

I am thinking seriously of moving to the Island of Antigua !

Don't Move here lol its great to visit but this place sucks... lol the grocery stores are so expensive... a 24 pack of soda is about $30 US WOO fun times livin' it up on in the Caribbean... Also the health minister just gave a speech in which he claimed 50% of the population here has HIV

Also I know your post was sarcasm cause of your slow pay issue... still don't move here come vist though .... I will buy you a beer ...

[blackbart]

Nicky: What has really changed at MB ?

They offer essentially 5 cent lines at anything under -200, and that's only accepting offers.

Who is charging less vig than that ?

75% or so of my bets at MB, are offers of mine taken.... similar to FH.

I fail to see how they "went to SHIT".

I think they are doing fine, and are a great threat to most -110 books, even -105 books.

They should be the primary book for most people, and at least be included for those sharp enough to pick off bad opening lines, when they buy back their overexposure.

What's the Beef with 5 cent total vig at stuff around a pick ?

I don't get it, Nicky !

[Santo]

My beef, and I guess Nicky's, is the penalty for multiple bets in a market goes against the whole principle of exchanges (Betfair & Predecessors)
