    Stay away from Sporsbook.com

    I decided like many people I wanted to make a Superbowl bet. So I just did a quick search and came up with Sportsbook.com. I deposited money in less than 30 minutes and made my bet including a free bet for opening an account. I won both of them and they have refused to pay me. They said because I told their cs rep after getting the run around for 15 minutes about withdrawing my money that I will go to my bank if they do not pay me. They said it is a threat and although I had already won the money they would only give me my initial deposit. I am not holding my breath on my letter to the "Antigua Gaming Commission" as Im sure its a joke, but hopefully I will save others from sending these crooks their money.

    Most gamblers never realize that sending money to a online book without total research is not smart.

    your first mistake was going with Sportsbook/ag TERRIBLE!! Any other google search on that site alone would have proven several delayed payment problems and customer run around... stick with a reputable book and youll never have a problem.
    as a previous poster has said.. file a complaint with sbr. hopefully everything will get figured out.

    He has not made a comment since probably knows he was wrong. Who does not know there is a rollover when you take a bonus. People really think they will be given free money just like that.

    the book is fine - not enough details to see op is right about anything - or wrong - my guess - like others rolllover not complete - then an argument - then a threat for a chrgbk. let's see what a complaint brings.

    You can withdraw at Sportsbook.ag without completing the rollover, you'll just forfeit the bonus. I have been with them for 11 years and never have any issue besides slow pay at times, but they pay.

    It's how I stumbled upon SBR, they sent me a check that bounced. Filed a complaint, nothing happened. Found SBr, moved into better books.

    I believe it was like 2009-2010

    Did you end up betting away your balance?

    As time goes by there are less and less people from parlaygate...when sportsbook.com and all their white labels decided to take back winnings from correlated parlays during two losing business quarters. They have stolen over well over a mill in their day.

    I was referring to the scenario where after the check bounced, they credited the balance back which sometimes happens, and then they aren't able to process a new check anytime soon for the same reason the check bonced. The player says F it and considers it monopoly money because it feels like it's never coming and he blows it back. Enter the lifetime grudge. I never heard of a player's check bouncing and just saying oh well I tried...who's on Oprah today? The one thread you made about them was after that in 2012 about their $50 freebet you were chasing and a half hearted endorsement. Then there is that you are kinda being an ass about it which is what players do when they don't really want help or more questions.

    Some degns like the fact you can give em you CC# and in 5 secs you can deposit $20 and play away. If your ok with being paid slowly, people put up with them.
