the one i got last week went out 3/27 that was the 5k one
the ones i got today went out last tuesday
all bank wiresComment -
when did you request the 3k one?Comment -
3/27 i believe, around then, and it didnt go out til last tuesdayComment -
score!!
got my $3500 today! sent last monday16th via wire, hit my account today and still pending, so that is actually right on the 10 business day mark... now only if i could get my last 2 processed!
my 1st wire that went out on the 22nd took 13 or 14 business days so maybe they are getting betterComment -
I would hardly say they are getting better. There doens't appear to be any rhyme or reason for how they decide whose withdrawals to process. I still have withdrawals dating back to 3/29 and all they will tell me is "we'll send it out soon."Comment -
marc,
i think possibly they are taking there time processing your withdraws because you're doing larger amounts right... aren't you trying to take out like 50k... maybe they hope that you get frustrated and start placing playoff bets and lose itComment -
to MARC
marc you are such a tool, your money is gone, the processors have pulled out 2 days ago, you are gonna wait at least 6 months from now to get your moneyComment -
Apaulius,
I still have time to ********** more than what I am owed. Fortunately for me these aren't winnings I'm trying to withdraw, but actual deposits. Sb is playing with fire right now and they are about to get burnedComment -
Thanks Hata!Comment -
MOST GAMES ARE OVER IN 3HRS OR LESS, NOT WITH SPORTSBOOK.COM WHERE YOU CAN SWEAT THE PAY OUT FOR MONTHS. SPORTSBOOK.COM WHERE EVERBODY SWEATS.

Here's the interesting thing. I requested a $1995 withdrawal on 4/18 from my sports.com account. That account was initally closed while they waited for me to send in my id. But that withdrawal still got processed on 4/26. So that request wasn't sent to the back of the line. It's only my large requests that keep getting bumped.Comment -
Same here. I have several withdraws for $9999.99. They are certainly making me wait. Their problem is I will not lose this money. I won't bet with them ever again!!!!!!!!!Comment -
JGG received the wire
FYI - received the wire in my acct today, hope you got yours.Comment -
I had the same thing happen marc.. I requested a check for 7K on march 27th and that has still not been processed?? However, I requested a check for $900 only a week and a half ago and that WAS processed on april 26th.... why are they able process the small withdraws but not the larger ones???
Comment -
Marc, since the 3rd week of Feb. Fom there you know the story about them putting all funds back into my account again. Then withdrew them a 2nd time on 3-27-07.Comment -
Marc, by the way, yes it is still in queue.Comment -

When you say processed does that mean you received a check, b/c I have heard of no one receiving a check.Comment -
Probably not my business to step in here but I'm going to any way. I never, ever had a problem with sportsbook.com. Seems to me, most of you guys have placed a great deal of the blame of slow payouts on the sportsbooks. The reality of it is you should really be calling your congressmen and raising hell. They are the ones who are responsible for the delays in getting your money into your hands and in some cases losing your money altogether! We have no one to blame but ourselves as we did'nt speak loud enough to kill the bill that screws you and me!. This bill was passed with little or no resistance. (I really hate kicking myself in the balls)
Instead of daily calling the sportsbook that owes you cash, call your congressman and start asking them the tough questions such as, "why is your head so far up your ass"!!?
Why is there a tavern, two blocks away from our house, that gambling machines operate on a cash basis with no opposition from the local, state or federal government? Why is there two casino's within 60 miles of my house that operate without any hassel from the local, state or federal government? Why does the state I live in partcipate in one of biggest gambling operations in the world called the lottery, scratch offs and so on?
Here is another question we should be asking. With all the succesful sportsbook operations out there, why don't they form a coalition to benefit us all? Why don't the sportsbooks donate cash, time and effort to form one of the most powerfull lobbyist group on the planet? I'd be willing to sacrifice 1% of my deposits/or winnings to help the cause. Then maybe some of these horseshit laws would not be passed or repealed.
We are victim's of our very own U.S Congress, and so are the sportsbooks that are having problems with payouts. Believe or not, these guys are on our team. They do not like this any more then you and me. For instance, Sportsbook.com is a publically traded stock, they are a financially sound company (do some research) and it makes no sense for sportsbook,com to screw over their only source of income, you and me! Twice named the "Best US Sports Book" by the industry's top magazine (2005, 2006) the eGaming Review. Sportsbook.com has been leading the online gaming industry since 1996. As of 2005 Sportsbook.com had revenues over 3 billion dollars.
For all of you waiting for money, it will come, it will take time, but it will come.
Its a little difficult moving say, a hundred million dollars in the form of $1000.00 checks or less, wire transfers and other options. Thats about one million transactions. The average moron knows that there are not many processor's that can handle that volume and get around U.S Laws. Especially when the sportsbook has processors that suddenly pullout and a new one takes over. Do you/me understand how much time it takes tracking 1,000,000 transactions? The volume is horrific, there is no one to blame but the U.S Congress, and me and you for not doing enough to get this legislation killed before it became law.
We need to take the time and energy thats put into chats with the sportsbooks c/s, telephone calls to c/s, and to the processor's, and let our congressmen know who we are and that we are piss't off at the legislation they signed into law!
Of the gamblers that I have met, most have an above average intelligence level and can figure out what I'm trying to say with some thought.
Guy's lets start placing the blame where it belongs, the US Congress. Instead of wasting 45 minutes in a on-line chat with some jamook who's making $2.50 an hour in Costa Rica. They can in no way, shape or form, solve the problem. Instead write your congressmen a letter, or call him, and keep calling him. After all, he or she signed the bill that is causing the problems of keeping us and the sportsbooks seperated from the cash transactions that are neccesary in wagering, even though the local, state and federal governments can participate in the same gambling activity as we speak off with little or no opposition from anyone!
Now lets put our heads together. There is someone out there reading this post that has a higher I.Q then I and ( god I hope so) who has the knowledge and wisdom to get us, the sportsbooks, the investor's, organized into a political force and get these laws repealed! I'm sure there is more then one person out there who can help us get this ball rolling. Because once it's gets rolling, there is no stopping it!! We have the numbers and the cash to get this done. WHO WANTS TO LEAD THE CHARGE??!!
PeWee.
Just rember that discontent was the first step that gave birth to the greatest country ever seen on the planet earth! "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA"
======================================== ======
In Oct-06 I was involved in a auto accident, broke my back in 4 places, 4 broken ribs and a hematoma of my right thigh that turned septic. After two surgery's on the right thigh I'm just starting to get back on my feet. Seems that I got lucky to just survive. My back seems to coming along ok. But hey I can bend and walk pretty decent! Point of all this is,. I may have talked/written a little to much here, but I have not spoken much to anyone in 6 months. So if I wrote to much and went over some boundry's please except my apology

The Dub-Ment
The anti internet gambling bill had nothing to do with a lack of opposition. It was going through no matter what, and the reason is taxes. These companies are all based off shore, so their earnings go completely untaxed by the US Government, costing it 100's of millions of dollars in tax revenue. The goal is to make internet gambling so difficult and frustrating that those that wish to gamble must go to a US brick and mortar casino, where all winnings and losses can be taxed.Comment -
I hear you about the taxes. But we still have to be better about being heard.
Barney Frank has plans to soon introduce a bill into Congress to repeal anti-online gambling legislation that Congress passed last year.
We get a second chance to rectify our past mistake. Lets be loud about our support of this bill.Comment -
Hey Alex@sportsbook.com, er I mean Sayner, why is there not a note on your/their website about the delays in payouts? Why have the customer service people been saying 3-10 days for the last 3 months? If your/their company had addressed these issues properly players would not be screaming. That has nothing to do with congress. Why are other books paying out promptly and not you/them? That has nothing to do with congress. For reference material, see bookmaker.com, caribsports, thegreek. After you do all that......then go to hell you fraud.Comment -
Below you will find a link to write your local representative to urge them to support BARNEY FRANK's bill "Internet Gambling Regulation and Enforcement Act of 2007" with the following exception: A particular sport does NOT have the option of opting out of the general public's desire to wager on that sport. Lets keep this as black and white as possible. A particular sport may have regulations regarding people who are directly employed by that sport, but they do not have the right to make decisions for individuals outside of that sport.
It's in the interest's of all sports to allow the general public to wager on their games. It will bring in an increased interest in their sport that was not there before. You have to admit that allowing the general public to place wagers on a particular sport certainly will make the television ratings for that sport to increase. For instance, several years ago I had absolutely no interest in watching the Cleveland Indians on televison. However if I have a wager on that game, you can rest assured if that game is on television I'll be watching it!
Barney Frank Introduces the "Internet Gambling Regulation and Enforcement Act of 2007" on April 26th, 2007
Please use the link below to contact your representative's in your state and let them know how you feel. If you don't know who they are, all you have to do is enter your zip and your Rep's contact info will be displayed
Email this link to everyone you know and lets try to end this nightmare!! Better yet call them on the phone!!

Joey12345 I appreciate your support. However I think your being rather foolish about the issue. Why would sportsbooks who have been rather dependable in the past decade suddenly develope problems right after new laws have been put into effect? Don't tell me that you are that stupid. The new law's have every thing to do with whats going on.
Why certain sportsbooks have not been effected and others have, I really have no idea. Bodog has a had very good rating with SBR for sometime and they are having some problems.
Why have not certain sportsbooks made the problems more clear is because I think this has become a day to day drama. One day they have a proccesor and the next day they don't. Nobody can look into the future, with that day to day uncertainty, how can any sportsbook possibly give customers an accurate idea of a time frame of when you may or may not get your funds. Then throw into the mix that everyone is hitting that panic button and wants to withdraw their funds because of the posts on this very forum that are not very well thought out.
I did not post my comments to piss on your shoes Joey12345. However I believe the new laws have put sportsbooks and players in a serious dilemma. I don't buy into the theory that they want to screw you. From a money stand point it makes no sense. If your bringing in three billion a year why the hell would you jeopordize that? Going by my wagering history they are keeping most of three billion to boot.
All I'm trying to say is that you, me and the sportsbooks are all in the same boat. Instead of going to war with each other, lets blame the source of problem and that is US Congress!
The only answer to this problem is that we all need to walk out of this together.
Follow the link that I have posted below and lets get the new law repealed. And a new one in place. Don't let the US Congress defeat us all!

Joey, you're sooo full of shit!!!!!! Sayner has hit the nail directly on the head. Common sense, anyone???????????????Comment -
If you sportsbook.com reps would shut up and read the posts on here you will see how NOT to run a business. Hey alex@sportsbook.com, er sorry I mean Sayner...when you say you have no idea how other companies are paying quick, you show how ignorant your whole post is. They are paying quick because they care about their business and haven't gone fraud on people. And the reason sportsbook.com won't post on their website is because most people lose and don't know about the payout issues so sportsbook.com is the immediate benefactor on instant deposits. Post a note and people will properly bolt. And don't give me that 'It changes day to day" spin either. READ THE POSTS. Two people talk to ahole Jones at Sportsbook and both hear that their wires went out. 1 (1st time poster) says he got his and the other (100+ time poster) says he didn't. The greek, carib, bookmaker, mansion - who all pay timely by the way- are the benefactors from you spinmeisters. And I know enough about chargebacks that they are affecting your front line phone card phonies who now get hit back for the whole tab including the cut they gave to sportsbook.comComment -
anyone in the greek.. i'm about to sign up w/ them.. if anyone wants to a referral w/in 5 minutes.. they're a winner..Comment
