    I'd have to say Betcris has been best so far with about a 1hr window on payouts and instant deposits and no fee. Heritage took about 24hrs, Have yet to try 5Dimes but reading payouts are taking 3 days recently. BOL charges 6% each way so refuse to use em.

        How's GT with BTC withdrawals?

        A big concern of course is that you don't know the rate ahead of time. Not only that, but the book can just send you 1% less than they should have and tell you simply that was the rate they got. This particular book offers free BTC withdrawals of course to encourage that method, but I have a feeling some of the other methods may be "cheaper" if you get my drift. There's always the luckbox factor that BTC gets stronger in the day or two after your withdrawal is processed and you make a couple bucks before your BTC becomes cash.

          they are totally unpredictable. Sometimes a few hours or it could be a couple of days.

              Correct...some times they are able to do it in a reasonable time but recently any time I dealt with them it's minimum 24 hours and a max of 72....to me that is unacceptable for Bitcoin.

              Better options are Betdsi and Heritage...it's consistently same day.

                Betonline bitcoin withdrawals are 2%. It's not so bad if you deposit with another method.

                  LOL you pay to withdraw? Why even bother juicing the lines if you will charge the payouts.

                    Just an update...I'd avoid 5dimes for awhile if you're using Bitcoin.

                    48 hours is currently the bare minimum it'll take to process any payout using this method...after the 48 hours passes they'll tell you they never received the confirmation email and to resend it which normally tacks on 12 hours or so

                    Adding on...their website claims that they process payouts from 9am-11pm EST...their live chat confirmed that's not true and their Epay department stops processing at 4pm

                          Thanks Kindred for the response on GT. The only downside is that you have to pay $120 in withdrawal fees (2x wire) before you're allowed to withdraw using the BTC method. If it's fast and free though, very much worth it to get there.

                            For bitcoin, on gt. circle is recommended as the brokage, I see that on credit card deposit. they charge $7.80 plus, there could be additional fees, such as the card being charge for cash advance. Have anyone complete a cc depo, and what was the additional fee?

                              2% is bad, 6% is just unacceptably ridiculous. Even for this mickey mouse book.

                                  My bank charges the higher cash advance interest rate for bookmaker or Skrill deposits but if I pay the bill before the month is out it actually does not cost any extra.

                                  I am fairly sure my bank would treat Circle, or any payment wallet, the same way and call it a cash advance.
                                  .

                                        Definitely using the BTC method in round two. It cost me $92 to get a low 4 figure wire. $16 goes missing from intermediary banks. My bank charges $16, and on top of it, you have to pay GT a $60 fee! I'll risk a 1% downswing in the price of BTC. It'd be well worth it.

                                          I made my first withdraw at GT using BTC and didn't encounter this issue. Took less than a day to receive funds.

                                          Heritage and Bookmaker seem to have the quickest turnarounds. 5Dimes was processing quite fast weeks ago but very slowly the past couple of weeks.

                                              I have no explanation for that, but at least BTC on round two will be fast. Thanks for the HU!

                                                  5Dimes - average 2-3 days. They usually send a confirmation email in 1-2 days and then they send money later that day or next. Free
                                                  Heritage - always same day. Average is 6 hours. They confirm by calling you. Free
                                                  Betonline - 2% fee. No confirmation other than an email saying you requested a withdrawal. Usually next day they will send the money.

                                                  Its BS it takes an hour for a deposit and 2-3 days for a withdraw.

                                                    I agree. But at least we know our money is safe there.

                                                    I think the reason they are slower on the payouts is they want to deter withdrawals. If they payout lightning fast, that would create more withdrawal requests by people needing money right away. If people know they can't get their $ right away, they might not bother. The other theory is the obvious, that they are hoping you'll gamble it away.

                                                        Up until Today, I would have said bookmaker. Last week they completed a same day bitcoin withdrawal for me. I went to execute another one this morning, but they only allow one every 7 days so I had to wait until 2pm today. I logged back on after 2pm and the option to withdraw with bitcoin was missing. They told me it was under going "maintenance until further notice" . Seems very odd to me with the timing and all that. I'll wait and see what happens, but definitely went from a good experience to a ??? experience. Hopefully it will be back as an option tomorrow.

                                                          The day someone gets your username and password in your bitcoin sportsbook with automatic withdraw steals all your money in 3 min, its less bs to wait some hours for an extra confirmation email from 5dimes.

                                                          I guess 5dimes will reduce the bitcoin withdraw time soon, not surpriced if lots of US customers are changing to bitcoin this days, always a challenge to fix big changes in a small time for any company

Heritage took about 24hrs, Have yet to try 5Dimes but reading payouts are taking 3 days recently. BOL charges 6% each way so refuse to use em.
                                                                They once said it is free to deposit & cashout with bitcoin, it is other party that charge exchange fee ....lol.

                                                                  Requested a payout Monday, confirmed my email Tuesday night, and after I confirm my email its never taken more than few hours to hit my wallet. Yesterday they said it could it take 48 hours after the email. Now today about 62 hours after I confirmed the email, they tell me they're experiencing bitcoin delays.
                                                                  I sure hope they're not giving me the run around. The fact that bookmaker was kinda saying the same thing make feel a little better about it.
