My Bankroll Disappeared....

$20 is a bankroll?

Masu485 · 01-27-10, 01:58 PM

It was downtime for me, everyone's had times where they bet thousands and times when they bet $20.

This was supposed to be a temporary thing, but all becasue I misunderstood the fukking deposit rules, my bank rapes me and now i have negative money in my bank account, and instadebit penalized me also i'm pretty sure, and pinny negated all my winnings.

not only that, but my Instadebit account has been blocked and now I can't even redeposit.

I would send something to Justin/Dozer about it if you feel you were screwed over. It's kind of confusing the way you wrote it here, but if they took your money without legitimate grounds you deserve that money back.

That said, you really shouldn't be betting if your bank account is that low. Take a break and build it up so that you can play the right way. The way youre going is a great way to go broke even if they dont take your money illegitimately.

Kind of understood your story here.

Your bank processed the money transfer to your instadebit a little too fast before you are able to deposit any money in the bank. Therefore, it is like a chain reaction here.

If you didn't procrastinate and go to the bank and deposit that 20 bucks, this issue would not have happened.

Yeah, I didn't really procrastinate. It was late at night, around 3am that I deposited, and was at the bank almost first thing in the morning to make sure my bank account had the money necessary. I guess I was a few minutes too late.

I do feel a bit screwed because now:

1. The bank took that original $20.00
2. Gave me a not sufficient funds fee of $20.00
3. Pinnacle negated both my wins for $40.00.
4. Instadebit apparently has fees as well now and so far it seems they have taken ~$9.00 from my Pinny account.
5. My Instadebit acount is now blocked and I can't redeposit at any book now.

and all just because I wanted to save the fukking $2.50 service charge from transferring the funds from my credit card to my bank account.

Masu485 · 01-27-10, 05:18 PM

I just e-mailed Pinnacle and Instadebit.

Pinnacle will not reinstate my wins, so I lost both those. And my bank stands by the fees.

So I lost the wins, the initial deposit, and have to pay the NSF bank fee.

Now I'm basically fighting for the initial $9.00 I had in my Pinnacle account, and for my Instadebit account to be unblocked.

This seriously sucks guys. I try to save $2.50 and it ends up costing me almost $100 all for nothing and my Instadebit account is blocked. I'm not even angry, I just want to cry.

If u have a good bank standing, they will usually waive the fee if u call the 800 #

Masu485 · 01-27-10, 10:19 PM

god DAMMIT. I WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE CANES TONIGHT AND OF COURSE THEY WIN! THAT'S THREE FUKKING LOSSES THEY COST ME AND TRYING TO HIT 55% W/ ONLY ONE PLAY PER DAY, EVERY WIN COUNTS.

I STILL CAN'T FUKKING BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED. INSTADEBIT IS NOW AVOIDING ME AND PROBABLY WON'T UNBLOCK MY ACCOUNT, AND THE ONLY THING I CAN FIGHT FOR IS MY ORIGINAL $9.04 FROM PINNY. FUKKING BULLSHIT I'LL FUKKING BREAK EVERYBODY. I'M EMAILING JUSTIN.

Dude, use this to re-evaluate how you're living your life. If 20 bucks here and there is doing this to you then you should not be gambling. Take a break and walk away. Yeah this sucks but if you were only gambling a tiny fraction of your bankroll at a time this wouldn't destroy you the way it has.

Masu485 · 01-27-10, 10:35 PM

I have money that I consider part of my Bankroll, but I don't necessarily keep it all at Pinny. I would redeposit as necessary. Now I find my Bankrolled wiped out, and my Instadebit blocked so I can't even redeposit.

And I've been there, where $100 was shit to me, and I'd throw that away on an 8 team parlay, I've been on that side of things, but this year I find myself betting less but enjoying it just as much. I think I have a right to get furious at all this. How would you like it if you opened your book one day and ur account was at $0.00 after having 3 winning nights in a row, growing your BR by ~10%, then you go to your bank account and find a negative number when it was positive the day before?

tltaylor89 · 01-27-10, 10:40 PM

Look all you have to to is claim that someone stole youre debit card bank refunds the charges you get a new debit card and knowones hurt they never investigate those things.Unless someone keeps doing it over and over

You had $0 in your bank account. You had to make a special trip to deposit $20 just to cover a deposit. Do you need to get hit over the head with this to realize you shouldn't be gambling? If the action is that important bet SBR points or something.

I thought of that today, but they GOT RID of all the Pinny free plays and Pinny cash at the SBR store. That got me even more angry.

Masu485 · 01-28-10, 01:34 AM

Of course, just started talks with Instadebit to reactivate account, and now they have a $25.00 fee also. This whole thing is total bullshit now. That's 3 companies screwed me all in one day. It's shit like this that makes people assholes and have no mercy on anyone now. This fukking changed me for the worse.
