5dimes and Sportbet

I've always wondered how things like this are handled. same with bookmaker/dsi. I would just open account and play dumb if they said anything. they don't disclose that it's the same company, so they can't expect everyone to know.

I've been a long time customer of 5Dimes (7+ years). A couple of years ago, they restricted my account to very small wagers (under $50, in some cases $20). I was wondering, if I opened a Sportbet account, would my limits still be restricted? Please advise. Going to another sportsbook is not an option, as I like the lines at 5dimes. I just need larger limits.

Thanks!

You already have an account at Sportbet if you have a 5D account. Just log in with the same credentials.

If I play dumb and open another account with Sportbet, will my account get flagged and shutdown?

might get flagged, prob not shut down. play dumb. there's no way they can expect you to know they're related.

Pretty sure 5 Dimes only allows you to open one account across their platforms. If you have 5Dimes, they will not open Sportsbet.

I don't think acting dumb will fly if you have been at 5D 7 years.

Log into Sportbet and you will see why immediately. It's just the 5D member area.

sounds like you want to lie cheat and steal - then come back here to complain about your closed account and confiscated funds. just play elsewhere.

You could try asking Tony to raise your limits.

He took open parlays off me a while back and initially refused to re-enable. I asked him again a year or so later and he agreed to give them back. Ive read otehr stories like that too.

Tony has been nothing but a dick to me the past couple of years. I've tried and tried, but its like talk to a wall. I may try and open a new account and see what happens. I just don't want my funds confiscated or not to be paid off down the road.

Was hoping someone had the same experience first hand.

Thanks!

It's in black and white. One can not have multiple accounts at the 5Dimes family of books.
It's stated on their sites under Rules and Policies.
"Customers may only have one AND ONLY ONE account number in their name in the 5Dimes Group family of books. The 5Dimes Group includes 5Dimes.com , SportBet.com , IslandCasino.com , VietBet.com , Chinesebookie.com , and BetAnySports.com" . Also, if bonuses are involved, customers may only have one AND ONLY ONE account number per household, email address, phone number and IP address without prior permission from management. Bonuses will be removed from all unapproved accounts deemed to be from one entity. Use of multiple account numbers or names in order to receive bonus promotions, referral awards, or exceed limits is forbidden and may result in the forfeiture of ALL funds received/won as a result of these actions.

Interesting so 5dimes can limit you even more

So i better dont bother support with my issue which is i can bet max 100$ on big markets and max 50$ on smaller 20$ on props and have to wait 5min. that i can place bet again on same match and so on if i wanna bet 500$ at 5dimes it takes me 25min rofl

Anyone had similar issue and did it solve and how? Cause is pretty annoying i must say and last time i talked with support they said i am not limited lol and added i have to write password to confirm each bet. How awesome is that more work rofl.

Bad Karma

Good point! No reason to do such when you DO already know and are aware. If you weren't aware, then it'd be fine. You are aware. That's real bad karma to do something like that knowing ahead of time you shouldn't. I think most handicappers do realize karma does exist.

dude...dont do it, they will catch you and they will keep your money.

There is really no way around the limits....maybe if you lose back what you made they will put the original limits bacl on, but that is not a solution.
