    5Dimes withdrawal experience (600$)

    I requested a 630$ ** from 5dimes, they charged me 30$ because it wasn't monday. They actually tried to tell me I couldn't withdraw because I didn't bet my balance 1x..LOL... I asked them to show me where it said I had to bet my balance 1x before withdrawal and she sent me a link to some freeplay page. I didn't take a deposit bonus just for the reason of a rollover. I've attached the chat convo for laughs...

    She finally gave me the **, after arguing with her. She told me they would take back the 12$ ** fees they credited me because I didn't gamble my entire balance 1x making it cost me 42$ for withdrawal. (even though I saw this rule no where)

    Apparently I had only risked 155$ of a 250$ ** deposit finally she said to call back the next day after 1pm(this is at 11am) I called back later that day and got the control number picked up the ** no problem next day. I basically deposited for sbr pro status. Kinda sucked felt like I had to kiss a$$ to get my money out.

    Chat InformationPlease wait for a site operator to respond.
    Chat InformationYou are now chatting with 'Kim'
    Kim: Hello. How may I assist you today?
    excel: hello i wanted to request a ** withdrawal.
    Kim: Can you please confirm your account number and password?
    excel: ********
    excel: *******
    Kim: Sir before you can request a payout you need to complete a 1X rollover
    excel: haha
    excel: no
    excel: i didn't choose a deposit bonus
    Kim: it is a general rule
    Kim: Customers must complete at least a ONE time roll over of the deposited amount in order to qualify for a pay out to be processed without incurring a penalty fee. If the requirements are not fulfilled, the account will not qualify for free a redemption.
    excel: so youre telln me i havent wagred 250 yet?
    excel: oh
    Kim: you can check the rules for redemptions here
    Kim: http://www.5dimes.com/PopUpsFromRewa...tionrules.html
    Kim: http://www.5dimes.com/PopUpsFromRewa...tionrules.html
    excel: ill pay the 30$
    excel: thats ok
    excel: i'll pay the $30 dollar ** fee
    excel: no problem
    Kim: no sir, I can not take the request you had only met $55.23 of rollover
    Kim: what counts is the less amount between the risk and the win
    excel: so you are teling me i deposited and cannot withdrawal basically?
    Kim: you need to complete rollover before you can request a payout
    excel: i didnt request a deposit bonus
    excel: for that reason
    excel: ive never heard of this before
    excel: yesterday they told
    excel: me i could cashout
    excel: for 30$
    excel: today i cant
    excel: can i speak with a manager?
    Kim: It is a general rule! you need to complete 1 time rollover before any payout request
    Kim: Just a moment
    excel: ive wagered more than 55$
    excel: in the casinos and poker
    excel: so thats bogus
    excel: ive never heard of anything like this
    Kim: please hold
    excel: Customers must complete at least a ONE time roll over of the deposited amount in order to qualify for a pay out to be processed without incurring a penalty fee. If the requirements are not fulfilled, the account will not qualify for free a redemption. Customers from outside of North America are required to roll over their deposit amount TWICE (plus cash back rewards if requested) before qualifying for a redemption to be processed without incurring in an administrative fee.
    excel: nothing about i must rollover my deposit in that link
    excel: i wasnt playing with a freeplay i was playing with a ** deposit
    Kim: Sir I am checking the action on your account could you please hold
    excel: k
    Kim: I just see in your account you played on the casino
    excel: i'm sorry to be rude i just want to withdrawal
    Kim: thats ok..
    excel: i cant fathom why you wont let me
    excel: if you cant can i please speak witha manager
    excel: no disrespect to you
    Kim: the reason we make customers make a 1 time roll over is because we are not a bank, if a customer deposits with us it is because he wants to play with us, now checking your play we can see that you made a lot of transfers to the live dealer but you only played $154
    Kim: plus $55 on sportsbook
    Kim: so you have not completed the roll over required for a payout
    excel: i didnt see that written in your rules
    Kim: according to our rules we must charge an admin fee for this apart of the normal payout fees
    excel: can you show me where
    excel: that is written?
    Kim: in this case you deposit through ** so we paid you a fee of $12
    Kim: we would have to reverse this fee
    Kim: and charge you the normal $30 for the payout
    excel: so
    excel: 42$?
    excel: lets do it
    excel: please
    excel: i didnt know i had to rollover my balance to get the w/u free
    excel: would have never accepted it
    Kim: how much you want to cash out ?
    excel: i'll just do a ** for 638 you guys can keep the rest
    Kim: ok, I just want to inform you that ** is really selective with the payouts, they ask for a ** deposit before , I know you had deposit with ** philippines just want to let you know .. the transaction will goes under your own risk (means if the transaction is for some reason cancel or rejected we are not able to pick it up neither you)
    excel: how often does that happen?
    Kim: let me double check all information ...
    Kim: I got a ** payout for $638 +$30 fee +$12
    Kim: to excel
    Kim: to the city of *****
    Kim: and state of **
    excel: correct
    Kim: we have had problems with customer because we don't know how often tour customers have used ** or if they are black listed on **,
    Kim: so every customer who requests a payout may have a risk
    Kim: and we do not know if it is going to be held or not
    Kim: that is why we have to inform you of the risk
    excel: ah ok ive only used it once
    Kim: and the payout request is pending ...
    Kim: and for the MTCN tomorrow after 1 pm ET
    Kim: ok?
    excel: ok
    excel: thanks
    excel: have a good one
    excel: sorry for the trouble
    Kim: not a problem
    Kim: same to you

    I agree with the 1X rule. They aren't a bank. Most places have this rule, or they have a time period of a week or two that one must wait.

    most people would bet 1X their balance. I've never seen this before.

    its industry standard, regardless of right or wrong. but i agree that they do need to state it explicitly so noobs like you dont get confused.

    I think its wrong to have a 1x rollover. It's your money. Whether it is industry standard or not is irrelevant. Fair enough that they take their fees out, but they are already making interest off your money while they are holding it... so fk them. If you want your money back you should be able to get it back anytime you request it. Especially when their rollover rules are already the lesser amount of risk and to win.

    Offshore books have transaction and administrative costs that they mostly eat but require a 1x rollover. If all their customers posted some small amount say $100 on a friday, made a few bets over the weekend, and withdrew on monday, only to repeat the process, the books would go broke in a real hurry.

    Players would balk at shouldering the transaction costs themselves -- so a 1x rollover is the most palatable option at this time for both sides....the book eats the transaction and administrative overhead costs, and you give them a shot at taking some gambling losses back from you.

    I didn't know anything about this industry standard(this being my first real sportsbook deposit(besides bodog))Overall I really can't complain, I won they paid. I might even deposit a small amount with them in the future. I just didn't like how she tried to say I couldn't cash out and then the only reason she could find is because they gave me 12$... LOL? or even better some unwritten industry standard hahaha

    Excel, Why would you not keep a balance at 5dimes? (Unless you are taking a break from gambling or something?). They are one of the very few A+ books out there, they pay as you know the very same day if you need it, they have reduced juice, multiple props, etc, etc. You have to have numerous outs for line shopping to win at this game. 5dimes is a must have out if you are serious about winning.

    Without the 1x rollover, the books would become even more of a tool for money laundering. People would just send, transfer. and withdrawal money and not gamble at all.

    I side with 5dimes here. Asking to roll over the deposit 1x is more than fair with all the processing issues books deal with for US customers. I wish Tony would of come on the chat when you asked for a supervisor if they weren't going to pay you. Than the chat log would of been interesting.

    i know its your money, but if everyone would just deposit and then withdraw their money and the book just ate the transfer costs, then books would be out of business

    I agree. A 1x rollover should be required or everyone could just deposit $200, get Pro Status, then immediately withdrawal their money without gambling anything at all. Seems if it was up to OP, no one should have to gamble 1x with it nor have to pay the outgoing withdrawal fee, lol.

    Just because it's an "industry standard" doesn't mean it's right. It's also an industry standard for airlines to charge me $50 or $100 to change my reservation, but that's nothing but a scam and a way for them to gouge their customers.

    I got 5Dimes and I'm getting buried right now. Started with $50, climb up to around $200 went down and then up and then all the way down to $98. Looking to get whats left so I can look for another book or just take a break until March for baseball season. Don't wanna have to hear about fees, getting stiffed and shit in case I plan to do this.

    1x rollover is industry standard. you might get away without it at some places, but you can't really expect any establishments to subsidize the cost of your money flowing in and out.
