Bodog Slow Payouts?

[taychryan]

Bodog **

I requested a Bodog ** on May 27th from florida it was stopped. Had to change to check because they stopped ** in FL. I asked why the stopped. The story I was told was people were going to ** to pick up their checks and ** told them it had all ready been picked up at another location. That is why they stopped ** in FL.

[Bill Dozer]

I couldn't guess but if I am Bodog, I really want to have it for the upcoming deposit months of August and Sept.

[SBR_John]

Hi SBR John. Can you comment on why they have dropped Western Union as a payout option and also as to if it is permanant or just a temporary loss? Thanks for any insight.

Other books have dropped this from time to time recently. I don't know but I will find out.

Update??

I recently went through a lengthy withdrawal with Sportsbook.com, but when all was said and done, I recieved all funds that I withdrew. It took 2 months for a bank wire over $9500 and recently, just 2.5 weeks for a check under 2.5K. I moved to BODOG b/c of the rating of A. I have made 2 withdrawals, 1 for under $2.5K and the other for a check for $6500. The one for under $2.5k is coming ** even though they lost their processor, I made the request on Sunday prior to the loss of that option. My question is, does anyone have a time frame for either the check over $6500 or the ** under $2.5k? They said 10 business days for the ** (it's been 5) and 20 business days for the check (it's also been 5). I just wanted to get other players' experiences on the matter. I expect it to take longer than those time frames. If anyone can offer any good insight, I'd appreicate it.

I was just in the exact same boat as you with Sportsbook and BoDog, just a month earlier. My last check from Bodog (total cashout) took approx 6 weeks - received it less than a month ago prior to elimination of ** option. I would suspect their not using ** any longer will only delay check processing even more.

How much was it for? I was told they would send in $2500 increments.

[abacus30]

I did multiple $998 withdrawals through ** and the one check was a little less than 2k if I remember correctly.

Update To My Post-check Payment Delay

To be fair to bodog I felt I should post that the employee I last spoke with promised I would receive payment by Fri, June 8th(see my last post this thread).

I am happy to confirm that I received payment on friday june 8th as promised.

Anyone with major issues can PM me and I will give the employees name in service that straightened my mess out.

I've made a few odd sportsbets in the past at bodog.... with bonuses being so bad these days when they offered a 20% reload I hit them up for the max. through nucharge (2 dimes)... I figured I would try out their pokerroom as I hadn't played there before...

Anyhow, I been busy so I just got around to finish clearing the bonus yesterday... Guess I was about three days too late... I also guess I won't be seeing any my money till sometime around the 4th of July? (if I'm lucky...)

Oh, BTW, I was big fan of the pokerroom (and ran real well)... too bad I don't feel comfortable leaving more then a couple buy-ins there when they can only promise to get my money to me in "approximately 20 days"...

I'm returning most of play back to fulltilt and pokerstars (where I can get my money to epassporte and out through an ATM in less than 24 hours...) Let me know when you get your cashout problems fixed and I will probably be back....

[texash]

I'm still waiting on a payout from Bodog. The request was on May 16th, so it has not been 20 working days, the total number of days they quoted.

This is getting kind of ridiculous. For future payouts they are quoting 30 working days and they even qualify it with "on average."

That means, if you deposit (it takes 3 weeks to clear, or 15 biz days), you can't expect any money out for 2 months and a week (9 weeks) "on average" and if they are later than that, they will just say that your payout is abnormal and not "average."

9 weeks is a lot of time for anyone.

After I get my payouts I'm out of here until the Republik of Amerikka figures out how to clean this up and tax it.

Hi guys. Just wanted to update you all on Bodog as i have not seen the details posted in this forum yet. If they have been already posted then i apologize for repeating. They now have western union back, but with different conditions. Those conditions are as follows:

1. Only allowed to cash out a max of $3000 through ** per calander month.
2. No fees on your first ** cash out per month, then $20 for your next one.
3. Only 2 ** transfers allowed per calander month(payouts or deposits)
These terms are detailed on the payout section of their website
Hope this helps guys, its better than having no ** at all at least

[gc8661]

Upon review of your account, we can see that your payout of $1800 was
processed on April 30, 2007 to be sent via Check by Mail. Unfortunately,
we recently learned that a number of payouts from late April were facing
some additional unforeseen delays with our check processor. This
particular batch of checks was moved to a secondary processor in an
attempt to have them printed quicker than at our primary processor.
Unfortunately, this processor is restricted to how many checks they can
print per day, essentially to remain under the radar of the U.S.
government.

This processor is working diligently to get these issues resolved and
get all of these payouts in transit. We have recently been notified that
these checks should be printed this week, and then we will have them
sent priority via Check by Courier. Once your check is with FedEx, it
should take just 2-3 business days to reach you.

Where are you seeing these details? The only options I have listed are check by mail and check by courier... (Although it does show that the second withdraw in a month is $20)

W/D Update

Just wanted to pass some information along regarding my withdrawals. I was able to request a ** prior to Bodog eliminating this option. I recieved it in 8 business days and it was over 2.3K. I'm waiting on 2 check withdrawals. 1 for over 6.5K and the other for over 4K. I was told these would be recieved in 20 business days. Today is only day 8 for the one and day 3 for the other. I'll update if I recieve checks.

[mollywollyer]

Still no check ($3k) since 4/27 request date. I will post if/when I receive.

Bodog Reopens **

I spoke with CS they have reopend ** on a limited basis. To only about 6000 client. They plan to be able to open it other customers in the next few weeks. So all of us that were not selected in the 6000 will have to wait.

[BigBollocks]

Two weeks for a W.U. and two months for a check is absolutely absurd and completely unacceptable in my book. I requested a W.U. from BetJamaica at about 8:30 this morning and received all my information for a pick up about an hour and a half later....

[Bill Dozer]

Still no check ($3k) since 4/27 request date. I will post if/when I receive.

Mollywolly,

Can you send your account ID to assistance@sportsbookreview.com? Anyone else have a request pending from back in April?

[mollywollyer]

Check your in box. Thanks!

Just wanted to give everyone an update about my bodog payout.
First of all, I know i have to work with Bodog because I have been playing with them for almost 3 years and in those 3 years they have had excellent customer service. Due to unfairly passed laws it has really crippled the Bodog Industry as well as many other gaming sites.
I cashed out late march over $20,000 and my checks arrived in 15 business days and all cleared within a week. I had no problems with "march madness overload" or anything else. That all changed and payouts have been terrible. I requested over $25,000 May 20th and bodog said it would take 20 business days. Tomorrow will be the 20th business day, but they extended the process to take an "average" of30 business days so I don't have high hopes on receiving my money soon. I have a feeling it will take longer than 30 days :/

[mollywollyer]

I've been a customer of them for 8 years! Never a problem. They just told me this morning I should be getting my check next week. As of today it is 35 Business days since I requested check.
They don't guarantee it, but they are saying it should happen. I will let you guys know when I received it and if it clears ok.

[mollywollyer]

Question about bounced checks>
How long does it take the bank to determine if there is sufficient funds for the check? I hope the answer is not 30 business days!! :c)

[gc8661]

normally around a week....i am on 35 business days and was also told that late next week my check should arrive

[bodog]

mollywollyer..

please keep us updated. and you will be getting 2 checks I believe. 1 $2500 and the other will be $500..the pending of the check all depends on what bank you use. i would stay away from US BANK and any other small Bank Branch. Also, cash the checks on different days.

i had a worry similar to yours and asked around. i was told about 3 weeks. i also learned that banks dont make funds "available" because theyve cleared, they take a risk based approach. i'm not sure what the banking law reads, but the mgr at my bank told me they have 30 days to return a check. i don't know if that's true or not..but id listen to experienced people - 3 weeks to be sure.

[shake zula]

just got a fedex tracking number for a bodog payout, the answer may be here soon.

In my business we cash a large numbers of checks from customers. 30 days. The bank can still pull the money back up to 30 days. I am also awaiting a pay out by check. Start date June 1st.

[DrunkenLullaby]

So finally got the 1st of 5 checks requested from bodog. Check came via fedex, from a company called *** *******, in ***. I hope it is funded, tomorrow morning I'll be depositing that.

I req. it on 5/15 and it took 24 business days. OUCH

some more info...

in the memo portion there is a mention of ****** Finance and the check is on ***** ******** **** stock.

side note, why the hell is the word ****** censored?

Why, oh why, do you people continue to complain about the lack of processors and then immediately run & post all possible processor info on public bulletin boards for the whole world to see? When this processor soon disappears and we are left waiting again, keep your mirrors handy!

I wish it would have edited out a few other things in the post... Jesus christ, how does any of the info help people waiting on checks?

[shake zula]

drunk and herbie, i don't really know why posting about a processor on this board is a problem but the reason i did it was because a few people who where waiting on bodog payouts or had checks bounce had pmed me asking me to post all info once the check arrived. i had no idea that could endanger the processor, but i have deleted op.

[JBrown1045]

Seems to me ** payouts are back at Bodog. Logged in to my acct. this morning and the option has reappeared.

Molly,
We are told you will receive two checks by the end of this week via Fed ex.
