You guys that want your money out please read post 3564 on page 102 of this thread. It will tell you all you need to do in order to get to your money out of Sportsbook.com. If your still waiting on a wire the cancel it and request a check for less than 2500 and request it to be sent DHL. If you have for example say 6k in your account break it down into small request. You could do it for three checks of 2k each and all will come via DHL within two weeks. One week to process your request, and another week to have it delivered to you.

Trust me I have been dealing with Sportsbook.com for almost two months now and this is the way to get your money out. Look at when I joined here and that's when I became invloved with this payout issue. I have talked to everyone on the forums and at Sportsbook.com to get this taken care of. Again it's very simple if you want your money.

Thanks Bill.

Thanks Starbuck. Starbuck, when you canceled your wire, had you already received the "processed" e-mail, or was it (the wire) still in the queue waiting to be "processed".

[untorbust]

I was told that I couldn't cancel my 3/21 wire because it was already sent out. Has anyone heard anything different?

[Starbuckibm]

Thanks Bill.

Thanks Starbuck. Starbuck, when you canceled your wire, had you already received the "processed" e-mail, or was it (the wire) still in the queue waiting to be "processed".

No I had yet to get the e-mail saying it was processed. It was in the queue the whole time. After about three and a half weeks I called them and said to cancel the wire. Then two days later that is when I requested the first check which was April 27th. It was processed and mailed yesterday on the 3rd of May. I should have it by the middle or the end of next week. I will come back here and post the same day I get the check. Best of luck, but I feel if you do it this way you will see your money a lot quicker.

[Santa Clause]

I just called Sports.com and for the first time ever ( probably have made 300 calls to them) since I have been doing business there, I got to talk to someone who was very easy to hear and understand. I think he was even honest and upfront with me ( might be a first). I requested about $6300 maybe a month ago and it has never even been processed. I asked him if I'd be better off putting the money back into my account and then requesting it in smaller amounts. He said:

" I can't say for sure, but in my opinion, that is probably correct. I'd say you'd be better off asking for 3 different withdrawals for about $2200 each."

I then asked if I'd be better off asking for wire or check. He said:

" It probably doesn't matter. The same foreign company is handling our wires and check withdrawals. However some people have been requesting it by check and have been getting the money very quickly...much quicker than you would think".

The last question I asked..... Will I get hit with several withdrawal fees? He answered:

"We are not charging any withdrawal fees. The bank may charge a fee, but if they do, we are covering those costs."

He also said he is hoping they can be back to normal in a couple of months.... that is getting people their money in 7-10 business days as advertised. I don't think the online gaming industry will ever be the same with all this shi+ that is going on right now. I know I won't be doing it again unless it's legalized, or else I move to Costa Rica. Too much risk.

I was told that I couldn't cancel my 3/21 wire because it was already sent out. Has anyone heard anything different?

I have also been given this response about 3 to 4 times. Today I informed them that if mine WAS indeed already sent, it was obviously shipped to the moon or perhaps somewhere else in the galaxy and not my address here on Earth. So I think you should explain to them the time frame, and persist until they cancel it. I'm starting to think I should have just took a bus across country to Vegas to bet the NCAA tournament this year....

Hey all...here is my question:

How many of you still on this thread submitted a withdraw during the March 15 - 30th timeframe? How many of you that did are still waiting to get paid? How many have been paid?

I am one of those that is still running into roadblocks with Sportsbook. I have a friend who has been paid with requests prior to mine, and requests after mine as well. Yes, he had to wait about a month...but at least he has been paid. I am just curious if this latest batch of "non pays" is still from the March timeframe or not.
Thanks

[rrule1973]

You guys will get a kick of my latest chat with Customer Service....

Hello, my name is Todd. How may I help you today?
You: Hi Todd
You: I have been trying to get resolution on a withdrawal request for over a month now
You: and I cant ever get a straight answer from anybody.
You: I just tried calling, and was on hold for 30 minutes for somebody to pick up
You: and now....I guess I am here!
Todd: I will be glad to help
You: basically, I am trying to get a solid answer on my $400 request that was submitted March 19th
Todd: Let me check into this.
You: I havent been able to place a bet since then
Todd: I understand
Todd: At this time this is being traced; as soon as we get an update we will let you know.
You: When I talked to you guys during the week, I was told that I would be informed of something on Friday...
You: however, i still havent received any word
Todd: That is because we have not either.
Todd: As soon as we get an update we will let you know.
You: additionally, I have several friends that have been paid from requests that they submitted AFTER March 20th....why are they getting paid and not me?
You: Last question, if I may.....are you guys giving any consideration to players who were affected by this? I mean, it simply isnt right to have to wait over 50 days for a withdraw
Todd: Well they are getting paid within the current timeframes we offer
Todd: However in your case it seems that there was a problem with this btach
Todd: batch*
Todd: Which we are looking into at this time
Todd: Now in regards to compensation...
Todd: As soon as you get the funds we will review your account for proper compensation.
You: I understand that you guys have been having processor problems. Is it possible for me to contact the processor so that they can look up my information? I would like to try to get some kind of answer today since I havent been able to receive one for so long now
Todd: I am sorry but that is not an option
Todd: I can not even do that myself
You: so for 50 days now, the answer is still the same: we are "waiting"? Who is actually contacting the processor?
You: or, better yet.....are they actually being contacted?
Todd: Our withdrawals department handles that
You: can i speak to somebody in that department?
Todd: Yes they were contacted already and we await a response.
Todd: No sir, customer service (us here) is in charge of assisting customers, their job is to process payouts ours is to talk to you.
You: i guess i am simply ****ed then
You: may i speak to somebody in MVP services?
Todd: I am sorry for the delay. As soon as there is an update we will let you know sir
Todd: This is MVP services my friend?
You: great....even better...so basically, I have to continue to wait for money that may or may not show up. Christmas is only 8 months away.....so we shall see

Your money will eventually be redeposited back into your account for the March 19th Withdrawal. I had my money redeposited and requested by check. Seems like that is the method to go under $2500.00.

I originally requested my withdrawal the 19th of march, then after over a month they re-deposited the funds back into my account, claiming it was "rejected". Now im waiting on my check from the express courier option they already said it was processed and sent. They have been responding to all my e-mails in a timely fashion, and it seems like this time things are going a lot quicker. I just hope my check comes this next week, or the week after that at the latest. If it doesn't they are just bullsh*tting me again. But i think honestly they are getting sh*t back together, or at least trying to. I think they didn't really have a processor when the said they did in march. I bet they really didn't get one untill april, and just had weeks upon weeks of backed up requests, and they just said f*ck it to those made in late march. Eventually once they have everything settled with new withdrawals hopefully they will go back and settle the first withdrawals that came in right after they lost their processor.

i hope we all get our funds soon, i am very ready for this wait to be over.

[rrule1973]

chigoldcoast27, I agree with you 100%. I too think that all of April was basically spend blowing smoke up our dresses, and they have finally resolved the issues. I too think it is now a matter of sportsbook simply cleaning up the mess, and getting all of their customers taken care of.

Regardless, I think I am done with Sportsbook. While they have always been good to me, and been a model company to deal with, I simply cant go back to them in good faith after what has happened over the last month. Having customer service basically lie to you day in and day out is just not worth giving them my business anymore.

Finally, I would caution everybody about continuing with sportsbook. I suspect they have simply lost too many bettors, small and big alike to remain a viable player in this industry. I think it is only a matter of time before the money flowing out is greater than the money flowing in!

[moderator2255]

YOU'VE GOT YOUR MONEY SO CHILL MAN! JPOT and I and many others are still waiting on our money so try not to spoil it for everyone. It seems like SB had problems for two months because of the New Bill that passed. Sure, it was their fault too, but things looks like they're coming back to normal again. Until they do get their act together I'm sure folks will hesitate to play with them, but they give one of the better odds on play so I'm sure they'll stay afloat, provided they pay everyone soon and I mean really soon (1-2 weeks).

I think a lot of folks are getting paid now and things are beginning to smooth out. So, take a chill pill and relax.

I'M STILL STEAMED AT THEM FOR HANGING PEOPLE OUT TO DRY LIKE YOU AND OTHER MEMBERS THAT STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THEIR FUNDS!I HAD TO THREATEN THEM WITH CHARGEBACKS AND CLOSING MY ACCOUNT(I WOULD HAVE DONE IT) FOR WEEKS AND THEN,ALL OF A SUDDEN , A CHECK ARRIVES DATED THE 26TH OF APRIL AND CAME AT THE BEGINNING OF MAY. I FIRST ASKED FOR IT IN FEBUARY.THEY CUT LIVECHAT NIGHT HOURS,THEY LIE CONSTANTLY AND ARE LOCATED IN A THIRD WORLD POOR-ASS COUNTRY.WITH ALL THESE PROBLEMS YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE TOUCHED IN THE HEAD TO SEND THEM MONEY!

[Rolltide]

I have waited on my withdrawl that I made in April. Im in that now infamous 3/21 batch.Its Its only $875.00 so no great loss. Its not like is was going to change my lifestyle. I was one of those that called like 4 times a day and chatted 2 to 3 times. I would cuss and yell at them and call them everything I could think of, especially Ahmed Jones, but those in my place need to accept that we never get our money and move on, I have started playing with a different book and got payouts from them already. Just my 2 cents

I understand your frustrations. We all understand. However, this will soon pass over and we'll get our money. If not, they'll be a lot of really pissed off people and I don't think they want that. Like Bill Dozer has said, they've got too much invested in this book to close shop. There'll be lawsuits up the YING YANG. Carrie Stroup will be sued, Nikki Cox will be sued, Brooke Burke will be sued, ESPN, USA TODAY, etc. All of these folks advertised for them, and they all have misrepresented the company if these jokers don't pay up.

So, relax cause I know that they'll do the right thing and that's PAY US ALL!

THAT COOL MAN...I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO GET PAID LIKE I DID.IT SHOULDNT BE A JOB TO GET IT.

[chicagoPETE]

I've been bashing sports.com too, but I had some faith simply b/c they answered the phones and responded, even though most of it was BS. If they really wanted to screw us why would they answer the phones?

anyway, i requested about 4k in three separate w/d back on march 21 and the other two on march 23 via wire. as of may 5 i have received ALL of my money. I did threaten chargebacks, but i received one for 2100 first, then a week later i received 950 and the final one about 4 days later for 950. not bad.

i just requested a new withdrawal today and the guy told me to request a check instead of a wire. the w/d was for under 2k and he said i would get it much faster, which coincides with what other people on this forum are saying. i would like to believe that these sportsbooks are starting to get their s%^t straight, but who knows. I was as skeptical as anyone on this board and i did get my money.

[bangkoklucky]

How many people have gotten paid in the last months do you think? about 15 people? Meanwhile how many (like me) have been waiting on withdrawls "sent" or "processed" March 20th?

These guys are not paying. Paying oneor two people a week is a feeble attempt to stay operating as long as they can.

How can they stay in business.? No one is depositing money here anymore are they? So how can they possibly pay out in any signifcant amount? These guys are clearly going out of business. ********** while you can

Congratulations to the few who won the withdrawl lottery. But to the rest of us, we must recognize the SB business model can not survive. Take your ********** and call the rest a lesson learned

Sportsbook.com (SBR rating D+) gives update on lost batch of payouts
Sportsbook.com management states that the large batch of bank wires from March 21st was scheduled to be sent on April 4th, but was lost by processors and has just recently been recovered. Sportsbook.com is claiming the withdrawals were resent on April 24th. SBR estimates that, if the process was successful, players will see the funds in their bank accounts no earlier than May 8th, two weeks after the latest execution date. Management has also informed SBR that two processing companies are assigned payout requests based on withdrawal amounts. One is handling transactions for $2500 or less and the other is designated to sums above $2500. Some recent $2500-or-less payments have been confirmed by players in under a week. Payments above $2500 are currently facing a processing time of three weeks according to management and recent history suggests further delay is possible. Large balance holders requesting new withdrawals may benefit from doing so in multiple installments below $2500.

I JUST SPOKE WITH THEM TODAY AND THEY SAID THIS IS NOT TRUE. THEY ARE STILL LOOKING INTO IT. 60 DAYS NOW

[Tony777]

I made two withdrawls, one on April 4th for $1000 and one on April 7 for $800. I requested both of them by wire transfer. Last week I received an email saying that the first one was processed on April 27th and it would take 7 to 10 business days to arrive in my checking account. Well, today is the 6th business day, and it just went into my account. Only they sent it for $983. It's better than nothing, but when I receive my second one , I'll call them up and am sure they'll replenish what was taken out. If all goes right, I should be receiving the next one some day this week. I'll keep you guys abreast of it. Hope you all have the same luck, and Ill even drink to that

[untorbust]

I'm in the same boat as Onlinescam. I was told that the 3/21 wires have been received by several people and that there is a trace on my funds since 4/30 and they haven't received an update from the processor yet. I also asked about the funds being lost and then reprocessed on 4/24 as SBR has posted and they said that wasn't true. When was your trace put on Onlinescam? What have they told you?

[PFL57]

I'm with the rest of you guys. They have no idea where the wires are or even a timeframe of getting an answer to where they are. They said the best thing to do is to wait. I keep telling myself not to go on this forum any more b/c I just get mad. I just wanted to let you guys know about they non-update I got.

Not sure when they put the trace on it. I didnt pay attention to that because I dont think it was ever sent. I was told today that they are still looking into it. They have said that for about 30 days now.

I requested a withdrawl on April 20th and got a email saying it was sent out May 1st. Got my check for $675 via DHL sitting in front of my door step this afternoon, but everytime i was on live chat asking for my tracking # they keep saying 48hrs or 72hrs they always gave me the run around. I honestly think sportsbook is trying there best to pay everyone. Anyways good luck to everyone else waiting for there money. 17 days total, not bad i guess.

[joey825]

Been waiting on 2 small checks myself from sportsbook.com. Req 4/22 & 4/23. They both arrived this morning via DHL- Things seem to be getting better. I just did another check withdrawal lastnight, also.
