    Business as usual for BM...

    Quite a few people took large payouts when the DOJ mess went down. I've spoken to a couple other players, and have confirmed 4 large payouts in the last week. I don't know of anyone getting paid slower than indicated on their website.

    An A+ book can handle a run on the bank without even blinking. Remember when Pinny paid out every US player in under a week?

    Then you have books like BetEd, that just run off with player funds. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think Beted players are going to see a penny.

    You speaking of Cris? When they restore the Moneybookers option I will also say they are suffering no ill effects.

    Still waiting on a payout I requested on the 17th. If that's business as usual for Bookmaker, then their business sucks.

    They quote 7-15 business days, although it usually takes less, so you're still well within that time frame.

    Cris still offering MB; it's only BM/DSI that have stopped it.

    I get paid in Bookmaker within 1-2 days.

    But BetDSI takes a week.

    I am a diamond member in both of them.....I wonder why BetDSI takes longer. I thought both were the same company.

    Sometimes books under the same ownership still operate differently. For example, BetJM gives you a certain payout free once per month while TheGreek does not.

    I have received 2 payouts already after 23rd may...both were processed within 1-2 days framework at Bookmaker.

    BetDSI on the other hand has taken a week.

    Business as usual for most is a crock. Business as usual for a select few rather. Looks like a couple sponsors are gone due to a preferred lower profile at this time.

    Business as usual is BS because I requested a withdrawl on 5-20 still havent received it yet. Yes they say it takes 7 to 14 days but previous payouts only took usually 3 business days.... Also tried depsiting 3 times via CC and all 3 times got denied so business as usual is not true

    I'm with you! But for some reason I keep playing their, maybe becasue I lost so much $$$$ that I feel like they would have to pay in good conscious if I ever won big.

    As you already know, many posters are paranoid b/c of the domain seizure and/or do not comprehend that payouts are likely to be delayed b/c of the run on the bank and processor-related issues.

    It also seems that a book's longevity and safety don't count for much with most posters. If you're betting $50-100 a game, don't care about openers or limits, and like to make 3-figure withdrawals, then sure, you might as well use 5Dimes or BetJM... but BM is certainly not a crap book just b/c they don't fit your needs. They have been an industry leader for over a decade. If that doesn't count for something, I don't know what else to say.

    Nat's Fan, I don't know if you saw my update or not but I finally got my payout from BM that I had requested on May 11th. I got it on like, almost the last possible day of the 15 day time frame but I got it. The payout I requested on May 24th, processed on May 26th and arrived yesterday, May 31st......which is MUCH more like it. However, I don't know if you read any of the articles posted on SBR but the author of "The Emperor Has No Clothes" has responded to my initial inquiry to SBR regarding the offshore situation and my own personal concerns regarding my situation at the time. What he had to say was very interesting in regards to ALL offshore books. I will likely post it here later but I am waiting for a response from him to clarify a couple of things. He's not real pro offshore sportsbook right now, I can tell you that.

    I can't wait to hear what their excuse will be when the 15th business day comes and passes. They will probably pull some b.s. tactic like making you send in a copy of your ID and CC. Please post here whatever happens.

    In all fairness, they won't do that. They'll just make sure it was returned by the prosessor and refund the $$$ in my account. But, it won't be until they finish the "trace" which will go beyond 15 business days. I had a similar issue a couple months ago so I know how it works.

    I will answer your questios. First off, I don't know who you were reffering to, but I don't think CRIS is a crap book. I think CRIS (Boomkaker) and Olympic (thegreek & betjamaicia) are the best for US players. Safety of funds is their specialty, that's why I put up with delays, etc. Getting paid quickly is a huge issue for me. I like to be organized. I have every right to post my feelings when I'm waiting since May 13 to get paid. As far as betting $50-$100 game, you have the wrong guy. My minimum wager is $500 and I usually wager a lot more than that. I'm also a Diamond player. Not that I'm bragging, because I wish I did bet $50 a game and get the same rush I used to. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case and I have lost a ton of $$$.

    Jes, are you on bookmaker's payroll? Any time someone has something derogatory to say about bookmaker, you chime in. Butt the fuk out.
