    I love BetJamaica, but goddam I hate the fees for **
    Requested $700 payout this morning. Will be ready this afternoon. Love the payout speed and efficiency but damn the $75 fee stings. I love how its exponentially more expensive for them to send us money thn it is for us to send them money. Lol, oh well, I guess thats just the price you gotta pay if you want your money the same day in cash rather than waiting "7-10 business days" and having to take a sketchy looking check to a bank.

      Damn, maybe I should check that out. I just have always played with BETJM since the beginning and have never had any problems with them, relunctant to change a good thing, but the fees for ** ARE a bit ridic. It really dips into my remaining balance fater the payout...drag.

          I called and made the payout request this morning at about 8:30 am (pacific time). I will call them at about 1 or 2 pm and get the payout info (they give u a name and control number). I will then go to the ** location I always go to and pick up the cash.

          So, the simple answer to ur question, you call in the morning to request the payout, and you pick up the cash later that afternoon. It is by far the best method for cashing out, but it does cost ya a bit.

          It's just when it comes t offshore online sportsbooks being run by a bunch of island people, I want my money in cash ASAP as opposed to waiting weeks for a "check" that may or may not be accepted by any reputable bank. Remember, these are island people we are dealing with, do you want to rely on a check from an islander in the middle of the ocean? I didn't think so. Just pay the fee and take your cash.

                Yeah, its usually some ridic name from some ridic country lol, but i dont give a fuk, BETJM is a solid book that always pays, and their info has always been spot on and accepted. I have received my funds for every payout request I have ever made with them without even the slightest of problems.

                  I'd go with the check. Who cares if the check looks sketchy. I'm sure as shit not paying $75 bucks to GO TO some sketchy as ** place and wait while they process a 700 dollar payout from latin america. Not worth paying 75$ for that privelage.

                  Yeah, check definitely.

                    The basic, core logic presented in this post is beyond retarded. Sorry Dirk, but this is probably the dumbest post I have seen on this forum. Ever.

                          Why the big hurry for a lousy 7 bills?The checks aren't sketchy at all and usually come the next day free,2 max.Try doing a book to book with DSI if you want something to cry about.

                            BENZ, 7 hundo is a nice chunk of change to me. I'm a recent college grad who just started my job a few months back, so I want to make sure I get the money, in cash, as quick as possible. I've heard/read waaaaayyyyyy to many horror stories when it comes to these books and their checks. Checks not clearing, checks not arriving, checks bouncing, checks being laughed at by the bank at the mere site of them, etc, etc, etc.

                            Just give me my money.

                              In6 years never had a Betjam check bounce.Not trying to be a smartass,but you really need to learn what books do what on the receiving end.Olympic group is one of the best,some of these joints are a friggin horror story.

                                Oh MBENZ you're so cool, a mere seven bills, up yours, why post at all? HH I have dealt with BJ for 8 or 9 years I have never had a problem with them "fed ex" check, you have within 2 days and once a month it is free. Don't pay any mind to the hard ass, I'll bet he's in debt up to his ass and his cash is looked at twice. gl keep getting those "seven bills" sent to you.

                                  Benz is right. You could have gotten a free check withdrawal and received the whole 775 probably Monday or Tuesday. None the less you got paid so nice job.

                                      Alright, well I know BETJM is the cream of the crop. All you guys seem pretty adamant that they send good checks and they don't take too long, so maybe ill try a check next time to avoid the ass-raping fee.

                                      My main reasons for doing it ** is because I'm paranoid about a bad check and it taking weeks to arrive...but it seems, according to all ur guys' posts, that those two issues aren't "issues" when it comes to betjm, so I'll keep that in mind.

                                      Thanks guys!!

                                        i always wondered why it cost 10X as much for them to send us money as us to send it to them.. Never made sense to me , i requested a check through BETJAM and it came in 2 days fed ex, no complaits about that from me
