better than zero

I've gotta say, this book has gone downhill and rapidly, there's a few things I've noticed about them in the last 6 months that make me wonder if they give a fukk about anybody.

why not get another 3rd party check processor??

bigboydan · 09-17-08, 10:07 PM

It always sucks that 3rd party processing snags occurs, however I will give Intertops credit for offering the bank wire option when other books won't even acknowledge issues of this nature at all when it's brought to there attention.

easier said than done or every book out there wouldn't being having these problems

smitch124 · 09-17-08, 10:11 PM

Ok thats what I thought, its not the books problem, its struggling with regulations. It's really time to stop being surprised and stop blaming the books for problems that are beyond their control...

If creditwagering can offer a debit card for crying out loud a legit company with deep pockets like Intertops should be able to find a new one. Don't offer the debit card to new signups, just veteran players that have played there for a long time.

Easy stuff here

Not quite true, in as much as, as soon as CW are on the radar they'll lose the debit card option and become the same as everyone else. The only reason CW are different is because they've been around about a year whereas the pbooks experiencing all sorts of problems are established books that get fvcked around by banks before anyone else, they are victims of their own success.

all im saying is intertops is one processor away from being the next stiffler bodog.
I will not reup with them until they have an alternative in place.
They need to find an alternative now!

Deuce · 09-17-08, 10:28 PM

looking out for themselves is all, can't blame them.

You could say that about every book in a similar situation though sir. I'm sure they are seeking another processor very quickly due to the fact that you would not be the only one who wouldn't post up with them until this matter is resolved.

I once tried to open an account with them but they wouldn't let me because I live in one of the 11 banned states. I guess I was lucky.

several months ago arguably they was the #1 sportsbook offshore.

Now they playing with fire and only 1 processor away from officially stiffing all americans.

This happened because they advertise hard core. They got big, and their payment processor dumped then because they either couldn't handle the volume, or they didn't want the exposure. The payment processors have to cover their asses just as much as the books themselves. Take the bank wire unless they're willing to do an ** / **.

oh believe me I requested a withdraw via bank wire and also emailed them to insure it didn't get lost in there system. I was expecting this payout on Monday so almost 3 weeks later I get an email saying your money is back in your account sorry here is $20 lol does not satisfy me.

Remember You can have an infinite amount of money in one of these accounts but its worthless until cash is in your hand.

I will not be reloading until they have at least 1 more payout option and its in a timely manner.

I think I will be going back to betjm.

frostno98 · 09-18-08, 12:04 AM

Actually intertop has two different payout option available to US customer. The first being the standard bankwire and the other being the *********** bankwire option that is available. Haven't cash either way but I heard *** only takes 3 days to hit your account, once they receive the transfer from Intertops which should take no more than two days.

johnnystud · 09-18-08, 09:57 AM

is *********** safe?

where do I signup at?

That processor is an invite only one at this time. So you would need a current user to give you a referral in order to enter there business network.

Starbuckibm · 09-18-08, 12:49 PM

Why not use a bank wire? I would much rather do that then have a check mailed to me. Hell of a lot more risk with a check mailed rather than a bank wire.

jjgold · 09-18-08, 12:59 PM

The bigger books will always have processor problems because way too many transactions take place daily

Small books will for the most part fly under the radar

robert715 · 09-18-08, 01:19 PM

Good point JJ, Under the radar is key. That's why Bodog failed.
