sportsbook.com withdrawal delay...

[DrunkenLullaby]

I'd also like to point out that this is precisely when these pissing wars between forum operators hurt us all.

TheRX takes ad money from the Sportsbook family and is blatantly censoring any negative posts and is unwilling to do anything to help other than restate Sportsbook's lies. The Major too has been notably silent on this whole issue and has Sportsbook's (or at least Belmont's) banners flying high.

On the other hand, SBR has always rated this family low due to their sh*tty customer service and as a result is more than happy to point the finger at TheRX & MW and laugh, saying "I told you so", while their time might be better served trying to help the fools that didn't heed their warnings.

Janzette and the forums who, somehow mysteriously, receive their advertising checks are the only winners here. The bettors, as always, lose big time - even when we win.

I already asked Carib if they do. They don't deal with Sportsbook.com. So no way of transfering the funds. So this Sportsbook.com was reputable at onetime?

i once heard

that sportsbook.com was ranked B- at one point. i also read sportsbook.com was blacklisted 2 times in the past. i don't think any sportsbook (other than the ones owned by jazzette) is dumb enough to take transfers from sportsbook.com

[apaulius]

its official

I think its official PROCSSROS ARE ONCE AGAIN GONE..

NOW WAHT GUYS? I have over 15K still ni limbo on the site..

i dont think i can handle waiting another 2+ months till they figure out they could have just used EPASSPORTE...

IF YOUR MONEY IS NOT YET OUT AS CHECK , which may bounce now for all we know, or wire , YOU ARE FXERED!


didnt think the gov would be so effeicient in shutting this op down so quick

[DrunkenLullaby]

Yup, in a thread with over 86000 views, it's tough to imagine how the gov't could possibly have found out about their processors.

[kirbylou8675309]

Someone asked about the size of my check -- it was for a grand.

[joey825]

Live Chat

I just had a live chat. I got the same auto-response I received this morning. I really think this book is doomed. I have 2 checks I am waiting on. Both small. and a small balance. I am going back to Carib.

[jpot34]

Loss Of New Processor

I just talked with SB.com, and of course they denied the loss, and that checks/wires were still being sent. They even told me my 4 checks may be sent out tomorrow. I hope for once they're not feeding me a line.

Picoman!
You are not doing anything illegal by gambling online. The bill is for banks to stop accepting transactions. Can you people get that through your thick heads.

[jpot34]

BAC, where did you get your information on this subject? Are you sure about that?

[joey825]

It's sad when you want to lose a wager so you can be done with a book. I am waiting on those two small checks. And I hope I lose the Red Sox - Blue Jays o9 tonight...Just glad I never sent these chumps a bunch of money. Caribsportsbook.com never looked so good. Wonder if I will ever get those 2 checks?

[jpot34]

joey, don't think that way! You'll eventually get your money.

[baculuk]

Look up the actual bill and read it. It prevents banking institutions from accepting transactions that are gambling related. The US government cannot say YOU CANNOT GAMBLE, because that would be unconstitutional. If you are a professional (winning) gambler/poker player, all you need to worry about is claiming your winnings on tax forms. PEOPLE, learn your rights.

[joey825]

thanks jpot34, it is just so frustrating.

[jpot34]

BAC, I'm not talking about that specific bill. The way I understood it was no sports gambling outside of Vegas by any means.

[jpot34]

joey, water off a duck's back. I believe we'll get paid over the next month. I've got quite a bit of $ in their hands right now, but feel they'll pay us all in order to keep the book in good graces for the future. Hope it's not wishful thinking on my part.

[ModernManshustle]

Shocking that the government could block transactions! It's not like they would know what transactions to look for.....unless, of course, they have somebody that can read this thread. But that's OK guys, keep posting every detail of your wires and/or checks and then bitch some more when processors disappear.

exactly!! morons posting all the processor details, just asking to get them shutdown.

[ModernManshustle]

I'd really love to hear if anyone has contacts with supervisors ect... at sportsbook try to find out why the fk can't they use epassporte.com?!!!!

Sites that use epassporte have 24-48hr processing times to get your money into your epass account

[akalinsk]

Ah CRAP!

"there was a note pasted in our withdrawal sheet stating that the checks were sent on the 04/04/07, however we have received an email from our Bank stating there was a delay and all funds from that date will be sent from April 23 to April 28th"

Whoever posted this conversation on p. 86 - I was told the same exact thing just now by a Platinum CS who sounded as if he was in the loop. What he said:

-If you got an email saying that your check was "mailed" on April 3rd or prior those checks were actually finally processed and mailed by the processor on April 18th. Based on metsfan's post that probably means that the processor sent word to the check cutter to cut the check (metsfan's was cut on the 20th I think) and then they were regular mailed.

--If you got an email saying that your check was "mailed" anytime between April 4th and April 10th and that check was over $2,000, those checks will actually start getting processed by the check processor this week. Which means that it will be 10-15 business days from THIS WEEK until those checks actually appear in our mailboxes. Though he swore that there will be no further delays. (don't forget, it now takes 2-3 weeks for sb.com to process your request and then another 2-3 weeks for the processor to process sb.com's request to send the funds and actually forward the money. Since the processor itself is now 3 weeks behind, it looks like it will be a min. of 7-9 weeks for anyone requesting a check request now).

-According to him, the processors were working fine. Just fyi, they use different processors for checks and wires.

This completely sucks for me. Just comparing myself with metsfan and abacus who got emails saying their checks were mailed on april 3rd, mine was "mailed" just one day later on the 4th and now I gotta wait another 3 weeks. On top of that, if I do wait another 2-3 weeks, that will take me past my 60 days on the ********** window. Finally, if their processor(s) indeed dropped them, then who knows if I'll ever see the money. F*uck! One f'n day difference!

Is this just for checks? I'm still waiting on a wire that I requested 3-19, sent 3-21 but was not actually "sent" until April 4th. I'm a VIP member as well and I was told I should see my wire by tomorrow (ha ha). I just got off the phone and they didn't say anything about a delay from the 4th of April for wires b/c I specifically asked about that. Any info. you can provide is appreciated.

I will wager a thousand that we won't get it tomorrow.

[PFL57]

I'll wager my entire withdraw! Over 8K. I'm pretty sure they f***KED up with the withdrawals from that day. I find it hard to believe it will magically appear on day 15, from the
2nd withdrawal date. If you count business days from the
21st, we're looking at 25! So everyone that hasn't been waiting that long, stop crying!

[marc]

I just spoke to Colin Benson and apparently they are about to lose their processor by end of day today or already due to problems stemming from the gov blocking certain transactions according to them so anything not yet processed will start over from square one once they find someone to actually get the money out. If your wire or check is alreayd out he said you would be fine. Here WE GO FN AGAIN with another 2 month delay is my guess..

WORST THING IS NOWHERE OM THEIR SITE DOES IT SAY THIS AND THEY ARE STILL TAKING DEPs.. I got one wire out, but other one is still in queue.. F ME

SB losing thier processor has been my greatest fear. now the question is will they just hold all of those wirre requests in the gue or will they just switch them over to cheks. either way the backlog just increased another 30 days

Are You Ready For Some..............More Excuses !!!!!!

[chigoldcoast27]

god damn those bastards

[chigoldcoast27]

there are only a few names i still recognize so it seems as either a lot of people actually did get paid or they just got sick of checking up here

[marc]

Colin Benson is now denying having said that they are losing thier wire processors

But the live chat people also insists that the situation is imporving eventhough they just found out that their check proccessor is 2-3 weeks behind schedule. SO who knows what to believe

Maybe he was instructed to deny it - remember the CS reps and their supervisors all read this bulletin board.

My previous post related to checks only. I have no idea about wires - as I was told wires are handled by a different processor.

If any processor did go down, it would likely be the wire processor, or in all actuality one of the intermediary banks that they use.

[SB Hata]

F**k This

My Online rep is now claiming up to a month from being processed. That's not acceptable. Basically, the deadline grows as this mysterious "backlog" shrinks. Logical? No. This is a company that is barely staying afloat and trying to weather a rough patch enough to either stay in business, or take a decent profit and bail out on debt. It's obvious.


So awesome! In the middle of writing this. Check this out:

Chloe Healy: We are already doing all possible to get your withdrawal to you asap. Also, please be advised that I am not a liar, and I am also not here to be accused of being one. I have treated you with respect, and I deserve the same in return

***Please note that I do not use profanity or abusive language, but have only noted the fact that I have been lied to (as everyone else on this board has), and demanded to be paid, as any customer should.

[mogwai]

CS just told me that they expect the back log to be clear by the END OF THE WEEK.

[SB Hata]

CS just told me that they expect the back log to be clear by the END OF THE WEEK.

And Nikki Cox just handed me my 2 checks and some oral for the trouble.

[mogwai]

From CS:

ME: i dont believe that the backlog will be clear by the end of the week
ME: people have been waiting weeks/months for their money
ME: i just want the truth...if it is going to take another month, i would just like to know that
Gemma Maher: That is the information we have been given
Gemma Maher: I am sorry I cannot be more specific
Gemma Maher: and
Gemma Maher: If there are customers waiting over a month for a withdrawal
Gemma Maher: this would be due to an account issue
ME: an account issue?
Gemma Maher: I am just explaining that although we have had some withdrawal delays over a month is excessive to say that people are waiting
Gemma Maher: All I can say is
Gemma Maher: the backlog of withdrawals is now shifting, and processing times are dropping. Every day we hear more reports from customers who have received their money. We ask you to remain patient just a little longer as we work through this backlog. This has been a difficult time for all concerned, but your money is safe. We do sincerely thank you for your continued support. These delays are most definitely a temporary concern

[marc]

Mogwal,

I just spen an hour with Gemma trying to find out how much longer i was going to have to wait for the withdrawals I requested 3 1/2 weeks ago. She had no idea. Kind of funny that nows she's claiming the backlog will be cleared by the end of the week.

Oh and lets not forget the fact that they were just informed that thier check processor is 2-3 weks behind schedule
the lies just keep getting better

[joey825]

Sportsbook.com deposits

No one in their right mind can be depositing funds to these guys. I told the cs in the live chat I had, "you guys are getting killed on the message boards". LOL..I wish I would have researched these guys more. Luckily I only made 2 small deposits and am waiting on 2 bank checks. I still have a small balance in my account. And am trying to lose so i can forget about these guys. When did all TURN BAD for Sportsbook.com?

[apaulius]

New Info

ok so wire processor is gone, shutdown, potsings of wire detalias on here didnt help.. checks processor is also pulling out, though anything already sent "SHOULD" be fine but who knows.. so now im stuck 15K for who knows how much longer... looks like we are all doomed ad this book will be gone by years end.

They say they doint know because its exactly like in FEB and MARCH NO FREAKING PROCESSOR STARTING TOMMOROW!

QUEUE willjuts build up and build up

hope they can work this out as we have no recourse
