I requested a ** payout yesterday morning (4/14) and received info to take to ** for payment late last night (still 4/14). Have not yet gone to ** to get the cash, but expect no problems. Requested a check on 4/11 and of course haven't received yet - but that's expected. Will post when I receive it.

[abacus30]

Just got back from ** w/cash in hand less than 24 hours after requesting payout from Bodog. I think I'm going to call them to see if I can cancel the aforementioned check and payout again via **.

[ihaiha]

Hi guys. I play almost all of my poker on Bodog exclusively and I have requested more than $20,000 in payouts(2k-3k per request) via ** since neteller went down and have recieved EVERY single one within 3 days of my request without problem or incident. ** is the way to go with Bodog as you get one free ** withdrawl per week. Forget about the checks and go with **.

[tommy vercetti]

play poker online with bodog, and had a good ncaa tourney betting on games, as i am sure everyone else did......requested payout on 3-25-07, received confirmation email the following day (monday) stating that it had been processed and that it would take an average of 7 business days to receive my check. it has now been 23 days (17 business days) and no check. it is not a large amount (about $1k) but still......should i be worried?

i can see how many of the favorites winning/covering in the NCAAs would mean a good tourney for the bettors, thus more payouts after the tourney ended, but seriously, how long does it take to print a check and put it in an envelope.

ive moved over to fulltilt until i see the check. they have a 100% match (up to $600) on their first deposit anyway, so its a free $600 (and no, i dont work for or get paid to plug fulltilt) : )

checking the mailbox every day......hope calvin didnt run off with my $1k.......but im sure thats pocket lint to him : )

Well, that's what he'd like you to think. {the lint comment}

I have 2 payouts pending for over 6K and am waiting for checks. One was approved 3/26 and the other 4/2. Been over 3 weeks for the first one

[bodog player]

Yeah I followed up with bodog today. They haven't printed my checks yet and they are saying 1-2 more weeks. It has been over 5 weeks...

I love you, the check is in the mail, and I won't *** in your mouth! What are all the staff doing that they can't keep up? Bodog claims to have over 400 people on the payroll in Vancouver alone, never mind Antigua and Costa Rica. There is something fishy going on.

[rm18]

**'s are coming in 24 hours, sure the check thing is a problem but bodog is not trying to slow pay anyone

[pags11]

are checks even going to be a withdrawal option for most books come football season?...not looking good with all of these processing problems...

[cardman221]

I have 3 checks that I had not gotten and I've been getting the same runaround as everyone. Yesterday I received the oldest check (3 weeks) via US Postal Priority Mail. I was emailed a tracking number a couple of days ago on it. Just thought everyone might like to know as this is the first check I have heard of anybody getting since the end of the NCAA's.

[Halo]

Hopefully by then they will be able to work out a system that is much more efficient. I am sure they are currently working on this.

[Shuswapper]

Anyone in Canada who has interest in this should pick up a copy of tomorrow's Report on Business Mag. Very damaging to Bodog and Calvin Ayre concerning his shady past. The whole idea of the Kahnawake Gaming Commission issuing a license to a man who is an admitted con artist. http://www.bcsc.bc.ca/disciplined_person.asp?id=958 Ayre has brought a huge amount of scrutiny to the online gaming industry here in Canada since his egomaniacal desperate cry for attention on the cover of Forbes. Ever since then the industry on both sides of the border has been going in the tank. Make no mistake, the NetTeller shutdown is related to Ayre. Ayre has been travelling the globe a lot recently. Not because he wants to find a faster way of paying out winners, Ha ha ha, but to hide all his ill-gotten gains before he pulls the plug. He won't say, see ya later, suckers, because his giant ego doesn't allow him to relate to , or converse with people he considers beneath him. Everyone else. When everyone says, Holy Shit, Bodog f...ed off with our money, don't say you weren't warned! This message is for unsuspecting bettors with Bodog. I don't have to hear from anyone on Bodog's payroll. When you fools are laid off, there will not be two weeks notice or a severance package.

[ngelder]

I found out today that bodog bounced a check to me. Threw my bank account way off, and caused me to overdraw.

[abacus30]

ngelder - how long was it from the point you requested it, until you finally received and cashed it?

[mizzouclass1996]

I requested a payout of about $4,000 from Bodog on April 1. I call every few days to check on the status and every time I get a new excuse.

Today the excuse was that because the laws changed in the United States that payouts take longer now.

I thought they were a good book but now they are making me nervous. They claim they can't change my payout method because its already in process.

Are they in trouble? Do you think everyone is going to get their money? I'm starting to worry a little bit.

I sure HOPE NOT as I have OVER $11,000.00 in BoDog.com at this time! I deposited a $2K check via *************** on 4/2, just cleared my checking account yesterday, 04/19, faxed over copy of the check and bank statement to Bodog, I will be cashing out my entire account balance once Bodog shows this payment cleared in their system.

I dont think that BoDog is trying to screw anyone, at least I hope, I trust them as if someone was really trying to screw you they just would not answer the phone or reply back to your emails that I send! I really hope that this nonsense in regards to slow pays are corrected prior to football season as I have used Bodog from time to time and really enjoy their website and baseball MLB money lines!!!

[n88n]

I have been playing on Bodog for a while and generally pretty happy with the experience. Most of the Poker players are pretty bad so the low limit tables are easy money for me.

Unfortunately it has been a full month that I have been waiting for my last payout and needless to say I am a little worried.

Every time I call customer service they basically just tell me to wait longer!?!? Now today I got this big story their processors are doing the best they can and a bunch of other crap.

This is just bad business. On top of the runaround they can't even tell me if the check has been mailed yet. The manager said it was not possible to get that information. That is a big question for me. If they mailed the check 2 weeks ago then there was a problem with the mail. In that case I am waiting for something that is never going to come, and the real course of action is to cut a new check.

now I am just rambling...

Anyway I am just a little frustrated at their slow payment and horrible lack of customer service. They have been good to me before this so I am going to give them the benifit of the doubt for now.

I will update this thread when my check gets here.

Please ADVISE when the payment arrives!!! I have LOTS of money in BODOG and am VERY hopeful that I get these funds!!! That is once my *************** clears!! I will also update!!!

[ngelder]

I made my payout request in early/mid February, and got the check at the end of March. I was notified 2 days ago that it bounced. I'm waiting on around 1k in different payments, but I'm honestly scared to cash the checks now.

[DrunkenLullaby]

As they are an A+ rated book here, I would anticipate that their status in processing payouts and/or bouncing checks would be a part of BillDozer's promised Monday updates.....at least I sure hope they are! Their currently-quoted 10 day time frame for a ** is a bit ridiculous if you ask me.

[xelemental]

sup guys. i just joined this site because like everyone else, im waiting for a payout. now im getting scared because you guys are saying that the check from bodog BOUNCED!!?!??! i am waiting for 1800 dollars total and I am a student so its a lot of money for me. Also because I have lost more on their site than 1800. Im thinking of calling them to cancel my checks and do it via **.

Also my payout has been approved on 3/23, so I've been waiting a month! ahhhhh!!!

[mavs1978]

this is not good .. as i posted two mondays ago i made a deposit withdwawl for 9000.. call them today and they said it could be another week or so.. i have no idea whats going on.. and now checks are bouncing... really???

[tommy vercetti]

and less than a minute later (last time the reply took almost 2 days) i got this email reply from them:

Dear Mr. xxxxxx

Thank you for contacting Customer Service. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience of our current payout delays. We have learned that a large number of checks that were processed from March 28 and on have been delayed by our third party processor, which has affected a large number of our clients. The processor is restricted by the volume that they can process and have been facing other challenges as well which have all contributed to these delays.

While we are doing everything we can, these payouts are being sent out by the processor in a more gradual fashion than we are used to. You will be receiving your payout but at this moment we cannot project when with any degree of accuracy. Once we are on top of our current backlog, we expect to be back to the speedy payout system that has earned our company one of the best reputations in this industry.

Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and we will work extra hard from a customer service standpoint to win back the respect of you and the rest of our clientele.

If you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Regards,
Customer Service

i am curious what they plan to do to "win back the respect of you and the rest of our clientele" as they have stated......i know that i am never playing at bodog again.

[xelemental]

"...Large number of checks that were processed from March 28 and on have been delayed by our third party processor..."

my ass. My check should have been sent a little after March 23rd and I still have not received it. I think I'm gonna have to cancel and go through ** that way I know for sure that if I get my money through **, it will not bounce unlike checks.

[xelemental]

oh yeah, also, first one to recieve an actual check, please let us know! that way we know that the bodog boss didnt run with our money. thanks

[xelemental]

Also look what I read on this site:
http://www.osga.com/artman/publish/article_5332.shtml

"An inside source told us that Bodog finally has a new ECheck processor. Slow pay complaints to OSGA have dropped by 80% since last week and it appears that Bodog may already be caught up with back payouts."

fawking bullocks. article was written march 29th, 2007.

[DrunkenLullaby]

Heads up to all. The check situation definitely blows - I am still waiting on one requested on 3/29. However, I requested a ** yesterday and even though their form reply e-mail said it could take up to 10 days to process (which sent shivers down my spine), I received an e-mail with my control code for pickup this morning. I have not yet visited the ** for pickup, but anticipate no problems there.

So, it seems their intentions are still good and that the check processor story is probably for real.

Good luck to all of us.

[xelemental]

omg let us know drunken

[xelemental]

hey drunken, its weird, i just called them to cancel my checks and told them to do it via ** and they said that they already sent it out to their "third party" processing team and can not do a stop payment. thats bs. i dont want to deposit a check that will bounce. fawk.

[DrunkenLullaby]

I did not mean to mislead you. My check from the end of March is still pending and could not be cancelled. The ** is a separate 2nd withdrawal request that I made yesterday. The only good news I was trying to convey is that chances are if they are paying **'s that they INTEND to make good on the checks. When the checks actually ARRIVE is a whole different story.

Also, until we hear more than one newbie claim that a check has bounced, I would take that report with a grain of salt. Multiple reliable sources reporting bounced checks would be a different ballgame.

[mesa777]

Can someone PLEASE tell me what BODOG plans on doing for those people who they BOUNCED checks too? I would be really really upset if Bodog bounched a check to me.... I have now over $11500.00 in my account! Can someone here tell me the BEST way to get this money out?? I want to do ** however really am nervous on how to get this money without going through a ** interagtion! SOMEONE HELP!!!

[xelemental]

just do it through **. i honestly dont think that ** can integrate you. just go there and pick up ur money, say u dont speak english and leave.

[DrunkenLullaby]

Picked up $ from **. No "interrogation". Just a Xerox of ID. Also, according to the ** paperwork if you're receiving less than $1000, you are not REQUIRED to provide ID - doesn't mean some clerk with a boner won't ask for it though. However I think even interrogation would beat the sh*t out of continuing to wait on a check.

Again I will caution all to put too much stock into one newbie's claim of a bounced check. When multiple and/or reliable sources start claiming checks have bounced, then you can ring the firebell. Still, I'm hopeful that BillDozer addresses their POTENTIAL bounced check issue in his Monday updates.

Good luck to us all.

I really hope that Bodog.com will come through on its payouts! I trust Bodog.com and will continue to wager here if there are no problems with my payout! I wager lots of $$$ and only reason I am not giving Caribsports my action is due to their $5000.00 per month limit on my debit card... Caribsports has been there for me for years!! Wish they offered the *************** option... oh well... I like Bodog however have just heard some bad shit over the last few days in regards to bounched checks on more than one site.... I would be shocked to ever obtain a bounched check by a company who probably makes still alot of $$$ from wagering activity... Think that this nonsense new US law will be over turned some how... hell its our money... if they are going to cut off US funds for wagering on games the US Govt really should also ban day trading and stock selling/buying via internet!! The ONLY REASON that the Govt is causing problems for us bettors is because they DONT MAKE MONEY on it!!!!
