I just noticed that when I go to 5dimes.com it redirects to 5dimes.eu.
Has it been doing this for a while? I just noticed today.

Been doing it for weeks if not months. If I get timed out of .com, it goes to .eu.

Just noticed it today myself. Seems like it's becoming the norm. Might as well do it preemptively like several others have done over the past months.

.Eu is becoming the new .com, at least as far as offshore sportsbooks go. 5D had the domain functional for quite a while.

We have a plan for both the .ca(Canada) and .eu. I think the .ca will open next month and focus on Canada. We are not using them for legal reasons but rather to focus content much the way ESPN uses http://www.espn.co.uk/. They can act as mirror sites but the plan is to focus content to regions so for example you don't hit Europe with NCAA stuff in the middle of the Champions League.

Hopefully you retain the option to still see all the US content?

http://www.heritagesports.eu/ is working too. Probably by football season they will all be using something different than the .com.

I'm no legal expert (yet) but why doesn't the US just seize all .com's immediately like they did with bookmaker? It must take a long time to get a domain seized. Seems like a simple action in all honesty.

Anyone else having trouble getting logged out of 5 Dimes randomly? It happens about every 5-10 clicks for me. Used to be fine a couple months ago. Started the last couple weeks. Using Firefox.

I am as well, currently cannot get in. Redirects me to "guest" login.
Update: Got right in when I switched to IE, was using Firefox. Last time something like this happened (drop down menu not working) I just restarted and it worked.

Ok, it was cause I was signing into .com so I went to .eu and no problem in firefox.
It's not in danger in my opinion.

People can bash Tony all they want... but I don't know who really runs the show over there? If he does or what not??? Seems like a brilliant move.

moving to .eu? Not a brilliant move. Most of the major books have done it. It's simply standard.

Not sure. I am having the same problem evo mentioned. Happens when I place wagers, and pretty much every 5-10 clicks while navigating the site. Am using Firefox as well. Only had that problem since they switched to .eu (noticed the change Sunday)

You guys actually have SBR to thank for the big boost in confidence and security that you're enjoying from both the 5Dimes.eu and HeritageSports.eu domains.
In particular Bill Dozer is an amazing man who went to bat for his sponsors, and made those deals happen.
Trust me on this one :-)

Same thing happening to me
I am trying to place a bet and it just redirects me to main page saying bet has been processed or canceled, but nothing happens. I'm using Chrome on my Mac don't know if that's the problem.

Yesterday, the .eu site kept logging me out. Very frustrating.

I've been getting redirected without any problems but today it keeps telling me "the area is reserved for undefined.com members." wtf does that mean?
