Before anyone says it, yes it it stupid to have non-disposable money in an offshore sportsbook, and this is the last time I will ever make that mistake. I probably won't keep anything over $100 in an offshore sportsbook/casino ever again.
I just can't help the feeling we are getting played. Whether sportsbook.com is paying some people to get more deposits before stiffing us all, or whether they hired fly-by-night processors and are crossing their fingers the money gets to us while telling us it is safe, or whether they are keeping it 10 extra days to make big money off of interest, all while not putting any notices on their website of processor problems. They COLD-CALLED my friend yesterday to tell him about the 100% bonus and NBA playoffs coming up, and tried to get him to put in a deposit over the phone. These people are scum, whether they pay or not.
If people really need this money soon, these choices become a lot harder. I wish I could wait forever but I can't.
