    The absolute worst thing about 5 Dimes
    They don’t remove your requested payout balance from your available balance when you request it. It’s just hanging out there for 1, 2, 3, 4 however many days they take. Everywhere else I’ve played they remove a payout balance from your available balance when you request it. Does this piss anyone else off?

      Agree that is annoying. It’s like subliminally they want you to keep betting and lose it.

      What payout method is taking the four days?

        4 is not normal. The point is it can take multiple days. Regardless it should come out immediately. You shouldn’t have to do that math or look at your payout request page. It should be considered yours once you request it

                One of the reasons I haven’t played there in a long time. Not that I ever bet with the requested funds, but just the fact they purposely slow pay in hopes you blow it

                      I like everything else about them honestly. This one thing drives me bananas though.

                        one other thing

                        when they have to phone call you for a btc w/d ... they will only let it ring for 3x then hang-up... have to start over

                        does 5D do that still ?

                          I’ve been able to call them right back and it’s been fine. That is kind of an annoying step and honestly I don’t know how normal that is because I’ve not gotten btc payouts anywhere else honestly but if you’ve got recent payouts on file they don’t seem to take that step

                              Bookmaker takes under a day text verified minute you request and verify it’s gone. Bovada I believe does the same thing keeps your pending payout available

                                  Exact proof why payouts are delayed and available to all. Otters what are you doing betting right now? Smh

                                    This has happened to me maybe only 2-3 times but it’s always super disappointing when it does. Happened a few weeks ago actually. It’s our own fault but it seems so harmless at the time, hell you're just borrowing against your own money! What could go wrong

                                    Crazy thing is right now it actually worked in my favor. Last night after Burns won I requested a payout, dipped into the payout balance a little, went like $50 over my “actual” available amount minus payout on a table tennis match, and while the bet (which was a winner) was pending they rejected my payout request due to insufficient funds. At like 3 am! Gotten a lot of payouts from them, never had it processed that quickly or that time of the morning. It’s almost as if they did it on purpose to catch me in an NSF status, which is their right of course, but annoying nonetheless. But as some have stated, how about not being a degenerate for once. However, turns out I went on a little run and am about to request a larger payout so it actually worked in my favor for once believe it or not. And this time, I’m gonna get the mf. No dipping!

                                              Haha I know like I said I like them, it’s about the only place I’ve played for a long time, so technically it’s good if this is the worst thing I have to complain about. Still aggravates me

                                                So if you place some bets and your balance dips below the amount but you recover in time for when they process the withdrawal.... does the payout go through or is it rejected?

                                                    If you recover by the time they process the payout, you’re good. But you don’t know exactly when that will be, and they technically can pick whenever they want to catch you dipping too low and reject your payout request for insufficient funds. I’ve dipped lower than the payout amount a good bit and have usually recovered. It especially comes into play if you get a big score early on a college football Saturday, request a payout, and keep playing. It’s easier to get yourself in a bind than it sounds

But you don’t know exactly when that will be, and they technically can pick whenever they want to catch you dipping too low and reject your payout request for insufficient funds. I’ve dipped lower than the payout amount a good bit and have usually recovered.

                                                      Ok I was just curious what they did. As you said, they can just wait for balance to go below the amount and say they tried to process it at the exact time it was below

                                                        They did that to me last night actually. That’s what prompted this thread at 4am haha. They processed the payout faster than they ever have at a time of night/morning that they’ve never ever processed a payout for me. While I had eventual winners pending. Ended up working out for me, just requested a larger payout

                                                          The worst thing is their customer service. I have an open chat window with Tony from over 2 years ago and he hasn’t replied.

                                                              This has bitten me in the a$$ SO many times. I don't have the discipline to look at that standing balance and not 'borrow' a bit for an easy score. That score never turns out to be easy, and I regret it more often than not.
