sportsbook.com withdrawal delay...

[Mark Shark]

well, I got one of 9 checks so if that is the only one coming I am just oging to leave the chargebacks in place for now, see how it pans out, the checks from DHL say they are good for 60 days so I am going to just chill and hope a few more come in the next week,

You should do the right thing and cancel the **********. Seriously I have been on this thread from the start and everyone has received their money over time. Yes it is lousy you have to wait at times for months but it will get to you eventually. Apart from the Internationals like myself every US citizen has received their money. Sooner or later that is.

[RickDawg05]

I agree...if everyone did chargebacks then nobody would get paid. Help a brotha out by not doing a ********** and waiting like the rest of us. ( I tried to do a ********** about 6 months ago but not on sportsbook.com and my cc company basically told me to go **** myself...really rude )

Wow that was harsh...when I have ever needed to do it my credit card companies were very helpful. What company were you with at the time??

[Da Manster!]

GreggieB,
were you also on that infamous "july 10th processed/confirmation list"?!...and did sportsbook.com give you a tracking number for your check?!...it's funny and strange how half the people got tracking numbers from this date while the other half didn't...I'm still waiting for my loot to arrive and still no email confirmation with the tracking number for me either...just like everyone else, we just sit and wait...tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock....

my latest update

my chat with jim:


Hello, my name is Jim Anderson. How may I help you today?
You: hi, could you provide me with a tracking number for my june 1 withdrawal? thanks
Jim Anderson: please bear with me for a moment while I look into this...
Jim Anderson: Unfortunately, the provision of fedex tracking numbers for withdrawals is slower than usual due to the increased volume of checks sent via this method. The recent change in our withdrawal policy means that the majority of customers are now receiving checks via fedex.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and please do contact us again if your check does not arrive within 7 business days.
You: it was supposed to go out on the 12th. do you know if that happened?
Jim Anderson: Yes, $2,500.00 was sent on the 12th by Fedex
You: thank you.

of course, coming from a guy with zero credibility it means nothing. i get the feeling no tracking number = no check.

It is a podunk company called First Financial...I even asked them to block that site from future transactions and they said they couldn't do that for me either since the charge showed up as flowers...who buys 1200 worth of flowers? lol

[hoss2112]

Just got my check via FedEx for $1800.00 that was one of the "July 13th" bundles. So that was quick. Though my freakin' name and the check amount was clearly visible through the fedex envelope's clear view window ( as was pointed out by my Fedex dude..). Thank god they/he's honest.

[srhspaded]

check received

got my first of 3 checks that were sent out on the 10th...i mean the 13th...ok actually now that i got it here is how it really went down...check cut on the 10th...told me it was shipped on the 13th...however...the packing slip says...dum dum dum duummmmmm...the 16th...haha..however it got to me on the 17th so not bad...waiting on my 2 fed ex checks now...and whats this i hear about losing 2 processors...anybody able to verify that? I hope they didn't leave...with pending withdrawals not processed...that will leave a crap load of people scratching their ass for a long time waiting for a check...grrrr...these people...

did u ever try to track through fed ex...

[tbettis]

do you guys have to be there @ home if not...will they leave it there on the doorstep..also is a signature required

[lost pACEience]

GOT 2 more checks today FEDEX instead of DHL, once I get the other 6 I will stop the ********** process however BofA seems to be helping, also, they hcecks are all coming from LV but DHL and FEDEX (name showing through the window with check amount!!! (that sucks) but at least its money

[lost pACEience]

SO far no sig required, tehy ring the buzzer and leave it on the porch, also the checks are coming from various banks as well. I have to call BofA now and explain that I my ********** claims are not valid anymore however I am wondering if anyone ahs done this before, I am going to wait until I have all my cashouts, then cash them, then reverse the chargebacks just to make sure I am not screwed, anyway I have only been given an "adjustmnt to balance" at BofA which probably means 2 months from now those charges could reapear, checks also are coming smallest to largest if that helps

[tbettis]

just started acct with 5dimes....waiting for checks to come now. got email saying it was shipped monday. still waiting for shipment from 6/13 too

What did you tell BofA with regards to the charges?

Did they ask you a lot of questions about the transactions?

[Horo]

I just received my 2 check that went out on the 10th they added it up into 1 check and i got it today =)

[verybaddd]

good sh*t!

[srhspaded]

i tried asking for a tracking number for those withdrawals yesterday and CS said that they haven't been made available to them...so i got pissed thinking they were sitting on somebodys desk...but i got that one dhl yesterday so just because they dont give a tracking number doesn't mean they aren't shipped...but anyways it looks like things are up...but has anybody received emails this week saying things are being shipped???

and also to whoever said willheim from therxforum was a douchebag...yep ur right...total douche...he said he could help me with my june 11th withdrawal for 2000, so he said he talked to the supervisor and they told him it will be 14-21 days before i have it...so how did he exactly help me get my withdrawal faster i don't know...but if that is the case im gonna be pissed...hes a douche!

It's very tricky cancelling a **********. If Bofa has already contacted sportsbook.com's credit card processor, then it's just a matter of days before SPortsbook.com finds out and freezes your account. Once that happens, even if you cancelled your **********, it could get messy. You will likley have to submit proof that you cancelled the **********. Then Sportbook.com will want to wait until they get confirmation form thier credit card processor. Then you have to hope they will still pay you. Most likely they will. but if they give you a hard, you have no recourse.

If you don't plan on ever playoing with the agian, it might be wise to do nothing. If you get paid in full and the chargebacks go through, you can always settle up later.

Long time lurker of this thread, first time poster....

I made a $648 withdrawal early last month, received the "sent on July 10th" email. Today Fedex delivered a check with my name on the cardboard envelope (it was actually opened and looks like it had been taped up). When I opened it, there was another standard envelope in the package. It was a check to somebody else with a somewhat similiar name for $2,500.

Contacted Sportsbook and they have told me they will look into the matter and get back to me within 48 hours.

Anybody get a $648 check today?

[lost pACEience]

so I deposited the first 3 checks at my bank,(by the way don't try check cashing places they will write VOID on the check and kick you out) and I was told by my bank there is a 2 week hold, once I get the rest of the checks and my bank says everything is fine I will stop the ********** I started and pay them, a bird in hand is better than 10 in the bush.... also spoke to SB CS and they said the rest are coming within 2 weeks, so I guess if they are paying again and my funds all clear then its cool, my bank told me worst case is the funds will be withdrawn from my account as bad checks, either way I still have the ********** to fall back on, anyone else got any ideas?

[cadillacluke]

i'll be damned

after thinking i was getting the run around earlier today, i got home to a fed ex envelope with my $2500 check in it. glad to be done with these guys.

[GatorFan]

I still waiting on my 2k withdraw on June 14. I called them and was told that mine has not been processed yet. I dun no how long I have to wait more

[michael777]

$2,500 from june 6 for me,still nothing

[lump]

This thread has been very valuable to me, so I'd like to give back with my experience:
Received check today via FedEx for an early June withdrawal from sports.com. FedEx left it on my doorstep (I reside in California), and much like someone above, information was readily displayed through the envelope window. Fortunately FedEx are more honest than Jazzette!
I did not hear a peep out of them prior to receiving the check today (no e-mail notifications of processing, no tracking information, no nothing) and I never checked-in with them. Hope this helps others and mostly hope that everyone gets paid the money that they are owed.

One question I have for the forum: While I've been a good customer over the years with sportsbook.com, I will be taking my business elsewhere (assuming I can continue to withdraw my monies) given their poor customer service. Any suggestions as to where I should take my business?

[marke4]

still waiting for $750 withdrawal request made 5/31. Told me it was sent via fedex on 7/10. It was probably sent to the wrong address since I moved during the 3 month process even though i was assured changing my address before it was sent to the processor would eliminate this problem. But have no confidence in what I am told anymore.

[FEB withdrawal]

Received 3 checks!!!

Good News!! Just got 3 checks 2 from FedX and 1 DHL. All for 2500 each. Still have 2 on the way in by tommorrow or so and additional 20 withdrawals pending. Haven't heard of any news for this weeks withdrawal yet. I still have 44k pending with them. Also was told on the 10th expedited but got email on the 16th and got check today. Anyways,,,, As long as it comes and clears, then Im good.




Did anyone get news that any withdrawals are going out this week???????

[tbettis]

We thought that you would like to know that your withdrawal from 10-Jun-07 has been processed and was sent to you as follows:

The $1,596.23 was sent on 16-Jul-07 as a check through Federal Express to the address that we have on file.

Due to the increased amount of checks being sent via express courier as a result of the changes to our withdrawal methods and policy, the current estimated delivery time is between 5 and 7 business days. For the same reason, the tracking numbers for these checks are not made available to us immediately. If after 7 business days you have not received your check, please contact us and we will provide you with the tracking number.

Thank you for your patience and understanding whilst we endeavor to minimize withdrawal delivery times and please remember that we are working hard to bring you new payment methods which we hope will be available shortly.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions about your withdrawal or any other issue related to your account.

Good luck and have a great day,

Megan
The www.sports.com withdrawal team

i guess their sending checks this week FEB WITHDRAW

[tbettis]

Lost pACEince if you aren't careful you are going to get screwed. 3 checks aren't enough for you to prove you are going to be paid. What else do you want? You are just being an idiot to keep both options open just in case. I hope they close your account because people like you make it hard for them to keep their processors due to the large amount of chargebacks. I know they aren't fantastic with speedy payouts but they have always paid. Just have some patience my friend or you will probably get nothing.

[t2wentyfou4r]

Good news!!! I recieve my 1st check today... The withdrawl was on June 2, and CS states they shipped out July 13 via Fedex, recieved it today, no email to confirm shipping. I'm waiting on the second check withdrawl June 8, CS told me they shipped it out yesterday July 17. I will keep ya'll inform.

[icemantbi]

hey, this is a little off topic, but I'm betting atm with allhorseracing.com, which I hear is a sister site of sportsbook.com. Is ID verification with photo ID, front and back of credit card, and credit card statement the norm for non US residents? I'm assuming it's the same policy for all the sportsbook sites. Just curious.

[lost pACEience]

Mark you are just worried that as an international customer you are never gonna get paid, as I see it I got 3 grand out of 6 in the bank, and if they somehow retract those checks BofA has already credited my card, I will authorize the charges with BofA in 30 days if all these checks clear, and just so you know I tried bringing one to a check cashing western union and they laughed at it, called the number on the front, told me it was VOID, then wrote void on the front of it, luckily my bank allowed me to deposit it with others and I told them to put a 20 day hold on the funds to ensure I was the one trying to do the right thing??; Wait it out,, haha, i waited 2 months for anything, no confirmation, all the while my CC wanting thier juice?>> oh well, at least now I oh BofA nothing and checks are coming in the mail

[RickDawg05]

Hold on....check cashing place wrote VOID on YOUR CHECK??? That was my plan and if they did that I'd probably go to jail for jumping the counter. They have NO RIGHT to do that. More details please.
