    Just Closed My 5Dimes Account
    Over a small issue they could have taken the high road and done the right thing.....now Ive gone ahead and closed the account and hope they lose more business. Sometimes these books have to realize we are a customer and we have options.......Hope nothing but bad luck for Tony and his company.......Been with Heritage a long time and never felt the need to post one negative thing about them.....been with Tony's 5dimes for 60 days and decided to close my account. A refection of their business practice

    Just a FYI for anyone looking to open account with 5dimes.......my vote is a HUGE NO!

        I had it with thier customer service years ago. I had a lady admit she didn't give me the full name for a deposit. She didn't like I asked her to repeat herself a couple different times cuz I couldn't hear her. So she didn't tell me the full name and when I called back she admitted it and said it was cuz I wasn't nice???? Said nothing rude and came across very polite. Total joke.

                      Best book in the business.
                      I have always treated Tony with respect, he always gave me respect back.

                      Bet you there is a back story to the OP's story

                          ^
                          Why is it a wise choice?

                          Is it the quick payouts that clear with a hassle that was wise?


                          Was it the reduced juice?

                          Was it all the betting options they offer, that 99 percent of the other books don't offer?

                          Wise? How so?

                          Wait until Heritage starts dishing out dual lines to the OP, will he start a I hate Heritage thread too?

                            Just because you lost there doesnt mean you should trash the book. Either give a reason or stfu.

                              I wish I had a dime for every post from losers who lost at 5D stating how thir book sucks, I'd be rich.

                              Maybe the book doesn't suck, but your wagers do.

                                    Overall they've been pretty good to me. Customer service is always courteous and payouts have been less than a week. For me personally, they've been good so I will continue to deposit with them in the future.

                                            It's like saying I hate spinach but never tasted it.

                                            5D is the best book for US players and it's not even close

                                                    You have a strange opinion of what makes someone buried

                                                    I've done my research, they are not a book that i would deposit at, simple!

                                                      I've done my research, they are not a book that i would deposit at, simple!
                                                      Based on what? Posters' complains at gambling forums? Any source?

                                                        If Dinky did his research he would know 5D is the best book for American players, Dinky is mad at Tony because he tried to bet a bad line, got busted for it, gave Tony some lip, and Tony gave it back to Dinky three times harder.

                                                        Dinky, here's the bottom line on 5D, best odds, best lines, best and most props, they pay faster than they promise, payments clear, etc. etc.

                                                        Dinky, don't give Tony attitude next time, treat him with respect, he'll be nice to you back.

                                                        Research lmao

                                                          Sorry, dont post often but read a lot of post here to stay informed.....I should have included my earlier post (the night before I closed my account) but went ahead with a new post.......Been with online books for 10 years, Im not some newbie and want ppl to be informed of bad customer service and the fact we have options.......like I say, not once in 10 years did heritage cause me to ever post a negative thing.....took Tonys book less than 60 days.......Again, my personal opinion not tied with SBR, someone with qo years betting online and someone that has a opinion of a book. If someone ask me 5dime or heritage.....without a doubt heritage 100% of the time. never 5dimes


                                                          Earlier post.....
                                                          5 Dimes Loyalty Program

                                                          So I've been with Heritage for 9/10 years......only book I use. Decided to spread out and look into other books for this football season to line shop. You all have said solid things about 5dime so I gave them a shot

                                                          First off, wasn't happy with payout time. Heritage is not joke next day. You call them at 10am monday and P2P is ready next day.....like clockwork.

                                                          Ive had rejections when using 5dimes online withdraw options that I didn't know about till after 1pm. Call them and they say next day it can be done and the next day money will be ready.......so a monday withdraw online that gets canceled without notification, call after 1pm and told tusday withdraw, call wed for pickup info and not ready till thursday.........never at heritage, never

                                                          Also was told that I could only take $695 out cause that was the max a processor would allow.......wtf???

                                                          But what set me off was today. I noticed heritage gave me money back at end of septemebr for all the money I wager regardless of win or lose. Its a really nice little perk to get a few hundred free dollars even when you win. So I went to 5dimes to ask.......they tell me Im in a 50% reduced juice program I had no idea about and never used......told them I would like the 15% cash back on loses.....won a ton but managed to give a lot back so figured 15% would at least not make me as bitter for a bad 10 days I've been on.....she says no, sorry. You are part of the 50% program I've never used but can change me now. Wont be retroactive........wtf! Ive never used the reduce option and lost a large amount of money, what good does now do for me??? She keeps saying, sorry sir anything else.......why would a book not retro for a new customer who has never once received a free play, a bonus, a cash back and NEVER once used the REDUCED JUICE option because I never knew it existed

                                                          Im done with 5dimes and those who say they are a better book than Heritage is crazy.......

                                                          5Dimes issues

                                                          Slow P2P times (some where fast but half where slow or slower than Heritage)
                                                          No Loyalty reward program like heritage cash every three months.......and the fact they wouldn't retro is a joke. Im not scum or some shady person. Im a 45 day old customer who has NEVER once received anything from them and didnt even know about reduced juice.

                                                          I was capped several times on bets.........thast BS

                                                          Im sorry but the lack of working with me on the 15% cash back for 30days set me off and done with them. Heritage will get all my hard earned money

                                                                    Its my opinion that a book trying to retain business should favor a new customer for a simple error and not a unreasonable request. I work in the beer business and deal with mistakes all the time. To say flat out "No" to a new customer is the wrong approach. I closed my account and all my roommates did the same. We are happy with Heritage Sports and feel like they are a much better book.......will refer all the people I deal with in NYC looking for a book to heritage and not 5dimes.......Again ADR51, feel free to get a hold of me in person and we can talk further

                                                                    This was something that I wanted ppl asking about new books to be aware of......I cashed at 5dime 5 times in 60 days and they paid me......I feel when we have options to deposit our hard earned money we should go with the best and the best IS NOT 5dimes

                                                                      So what?

                                                                      He could have the type of job where he can post a couple a times a day (I do) and I have a real good job.
                                                                      He could have an hour or so of down time where he can post after work (I do) and I have a real good life.

                                                                      So what if he averages nine posts a day, you can post nine times in 20 minutes, and have a great life.

                                                                      Back on topic, this is what makes a great book, does the book pay? 5D not only pays, but on time or better.
                                                                      Find me one documented case of 5D stiffing somebody for no good reason. Sorry, I heard from a friend who heard from a friend that they didn't pay his uncle does not count.

                                                                      Does the payment clear? Always.

                                                                      Are the betting lines fair? Yes. Does 5D serve dual lines? No. Some of the other books mentioned in this thread do.

                                                                      Regarding Customer Service, it's common knowledge 'Tony' can be gruff, so what, that's the way he is.

                                                                      Here is how you deal with him.
                                                                      "Hi Tony, could you look into something for me please? I had the Patriots -8 earlier, it was graded as a loss, they won by 10, I am sure it's just an oversight, but I would appreciate this matter being corrected so I can apply some of those winnings on the late game"
                                                                      ,
                                                                      Bet you he has the problem reversed, and in the account in 15 minutes.

                                                                      This is how you don't deal with Tony
                                                                      "What's up with your thieving, no good sports book you crook, New England covered and you stole my money by grading it a loss, phuck you phaggot, phuck you and phucking no good sports book......"

                                                                      See how fast you get banned, and the problem (which was an oversight to begin with) not resolved.

                                                                      Here's the reason why the OP started this thread, he more than likely had a problem with his account or a wager, went into the conversation with an over the top attitude, said some 'magic' choice words to the wrong people, and got shit back for being a dick.

                                                                      There is nothing wrong with 5D, the book is rated A+ by at least six different sources.

                                                                      OP clearly has an agenda.

                                                                      You don't like Tony, fine, move on to another book, but to say the book is bad, thieves, sucks, or whatever, is not only wrong, but ignorant.
