    SBR visits LazerWager office to discuss withdrawal issues
    SBR visits LazerWager (SBR rating D-) office to discuss withdrawal issues

    The sportsbook's management tells SBR that a single credit card processor, which has taken the majority of its deposits, is refusing to release the funds to the book and hasn't done so since January 15th. Lazer tells SBR that if the credit card processor does not release the funds they will invest more money in the book and a best case scenario would be some players receiving payment in early April. SBR asked LazerWager the obvious question. Why would they not save their reputation and the players from waiting by funding the business now since players will purportedly be paid regardless? The manager we spoke with was unable to address this question on behalf of its anonymous "ownership." Players should be concerned due to the fact that the book is unable or unwilling to pay, making this more than a processing issue. Lazerwager is currently still taking deposits from new players. SBR estimates the debt to Lazer users to be just over $120,000.

                Doug, If anything I guess I'll take the blame for this one.

                I admit I read the rumors on the other forums, however no slow pay complaints came across my desk nor seen any slow complaints on the forum about them until TLD made his post back on 2-27-08.

                      At least SBR wasn't pimping them out like the RX. I wonder if Wil could help the affected?

                      I remeber I made a $200 deposit with them. I had to wait 10 minutes on the phone for a Western Union name. Once the money was in I called and asked to make a bet. They took the bet and I lost. I read later that they don't take bets over the phone.

                          They've always been a D, versus a sponsor on other sites. What do you expect?

                              they were litterally begging me to reload prior to superbowl. I resisted. I hit them up earlier for the Michael vic peta promo which was deposit 100 get 100. I bet 200 on cleveland they lost and never went back.

                                I deposited 100 in that same promo and thanks to the stupid ass Carlo contest built my account up to 2500

                                I did get a 1500 cashout from them a while ago

                                Blew the rest of the money, but i knew they were only going to be a short term book and after Super Bowl were gonna close shop

                                Their fancy live dealer thing was a complete waste of money, never saw more than 5 guys on all tables combined and some of them could have been management themselves

                                All in all a shitty book

                                  120,000 doesn't seem like that much for a book.

                                    The rx has pulled them as a sponsor and cancelled the NBA contest with them. Wonder if they'll find some kind of bail out.

                                        JJ some of us are gamblers and will hit them up. I'll take my licks if I get stiffed. That doesn't mean I won't try and get my coin.

                                        I got in and out of lazer very quickly getting a 100% bonus in the mean time. I'm presently out and had no desire to go back despite their superbowl promo.

                                              Exactly Doug... Because that early in the game the risk is well worth the reward sorta speak.Now if you don't get in and out early. Then waiting I'd probably say about a 12 to 14 months or so before jumping in would be a safe time frame to clear the question marks surrounding them.

                                                          I tried to warn all who would listen about how Lazer wager refused to pay out. Since then they have been down graded to a D - and have had a scam alert issued against them.
                                                          All I wanted to do was warn those that did not know that they are a deposit only site.

                                                            SCAM Alert: LazerWager (SBR rating D-) marketing to new players it cannot pay
                                                            LazerWager continues to market to new players and acknowledges that if a player hits a big parlay they will have to wait for investors to fund the sportsbook before being paid. LazerWager management maintains that delinquent accounts will be current in mid April. LazerWager's most recent marketing campaign included a phony press release offering Paris Hilton a job for $100,000, $20,000 less than the estimated amount owed to bettors.

                                                                    I only wish I read someones posts about this company before I anted up. Apparently SBR down Graded Lazer wager to a D- and issued a scam alert.
