    The good news .. I received a Moneybookers payout from "Euro-Sportsbook.com".

    The bad news .. by the time the goofs transferred my dollars to Euros when they moved me to the new book ... and then transferred those Euros back to dollars in my Moneybookers account ... I'm down about $500 from what I had before all this shit started.

    And don't even get me started on the cancelled bets.

    There is a link there somewhere when you log in about re-instating cancelled futures bets. If that's any consolation.

    How did you request a withdrawal?

    What annoyed me is the bonus situation.

    They give players the choice to either wait 60 days before asking for a payout
    to keep the bonus, or players could request a payout now and lose the bonus.

    Why no third option of being able to rollover the bonus as before
    and then ask for a payout when rollover has completed and not have to wait
    60 days?

    I have been trying to withdraw $2.5k from sportsbook.com since June. I have attempted a wire transfer, a check through regular mail, and a check through courier. As of today my $2.5USD is sitting in my betting balance on the site in the form of 1875 EUR.

    How did you withdraw? All it says on withdrawals for me is "In order to withdraw you have to make a minimum deposit of 10 EUR through your desired payment method to activate this channel with your new account."

    However sites don't always allow you to withdraw using the same service you used to deposit and I'm loathe to give them even more money by firing them a deposit using a method which cannot be used to withdraw.

    I made a 10 EUR deposit using Skrill. Cashed out right after and was paid within 48hrs to Skrill.

    What's Skrill and how do I use it to get paid?

    heheh yes, touche.

    What I meant is, is there any explanation as to why this company that has been giving me the runaround for 4 months just paid someone a significant (I assume) amount in only 48 hours.

    I am skeptic, yet optimistic about this revelation.

    EDIT: I JUST finished a chat with sportsbook support. Hence my skepticism about this Skrill payout route.
    Transcript:
    (FYI, the reason I gave for the chat was "can I withdraw funds using Skrill?")

    Tom: hello
    John Bishop: Is Skrill an e-wallet?
    Tom: it's what moneybookers is called now
    John Bishop: We are not offering e-wallets to US customers as a way to deposit or withdraw.
    Tom: I'm not a US customer.
    John Bishop: Tom we are not supporting canadian accounts anymore.
    Tom: ?
    Tom: You mean I have to deal with Malta now instead of Costa Rica?
    John Bishop: Can you please email customersupport@sports.com regarding your question. I apologize if this seems inconvenient, especially since you have contacted us over the chat. But they are the ones in charge of this new face of the site. Thanks for your understanding.
    Tom: Right. Ok thanks anyway.

    The dude didn't even know what Skrill is.
