I promise you and all posters 100% I've read it many times the past 3-4 days. They were doing maintenance work late at night when the last game of the night went off the board and was completed.

They were having issues on Saturday and Sunday.... and I'm sure a lot of posters were pissed off when they couldn't place wagers for 15-20 minutes. So, apparently it's an extended and "serious" issue... and they rather work on it late at night to correct it.

Even if it is maintenance, they have a Twitter account they could use to convey they're having issues so people aren't freaking out (which I understand if you have a decent amount with no means to retrieve it if a book were to go rogue). A simple tweet saying, "We're working on unexpected technical issues and hope to be back up ASAP" Not good for a big book to go absolutely dark after a major league championship with no explanation.

I still can’t log in. I’m sure it’s a server issue or something I just wish with it being probably the number one place that SBR users use that we’d have a heads up in this is all

tony having a little laugh

tony having a little laugh

His laugh gonna cost him business either by people getting fed up , or larger players not appreciating having shit scared out of them and not playing as much due to trust issues. mrpapageorgio and Texhopper is 100 percent correct should of been handled more professionally.

**texhooper** · 11-02-17, 02:37 AM

Way back in the day, like 2011 I guess, I lost money in the beted fiasco. So I’m a little sensitive to this and I’m sure a lot of posters here have lost money in situations like this. So for people laughing, sometimes shit is gone for real and that’s why we get a little weird

Their attitude has always been we have your money and we call the shots. Customer service never been a big deal because they have a quality product that most of us won't leave. I learned not to expect it to be any different.

Is it back up yet?

not very solid at running a website

Sites go down all the time. And it's after hours for them basically. So if a issue is happening and they are trying to fix it, this is the time to do it.

**Plaza23** · 11-02-17, 03:27 AM

You guys need to settle down. I was having trouble logging in getting errors on their site even during the game last night. I"m sure they are fixing it. They've had a crawl on their front page for awhile saying they'd be doing maintenance over night and some parts of the site would not be functioning.

**soobv** · 11-02-17, 03:33 AM

i was able to get on live chat a few minutes ago. this is what i was told

"At this time, we are experiencing some technical difficulties that won’t allow you to access any of our platforms. Our IT Department is working on it fullest capacity to restore the system. We hope that all 5Dimes features should be working properly no later than 6am EST, in the meantime, some of those features will be enabled throughout that time frame. We sincerely apologize for this issue and appreciate your patience and comprehension as well."

**unde0087** · 11-02-17, 04:50 AM

Did they win?

**wild_snake** · 11-02-17, 05:31 AM

It's working for me!

**John Dough** · 11-02-17, 05:48 AM

Just catching up on this thread. Those posters who were panicking probably shouldn't be gambling offshore. Sites go down, it happens, nature of the beast. It doesn't mean the sky is falling. Not surprisingly I wake up and the site is working fine.

**Alfa1234** · 11-02-17, 06:35 AM

Did you actually log in and see the lines? Front end is fine here but I still get an error after I try to log in.

**7deuceoff$uit** · 11-02-17, 06:56 AM

I was having problems logging in last night, and it said there were technical difficulties or the web site had been moved. I checked sbr then to see if any threads had been started. None at the time, so I figured it was just some quick site maintenance. Logged in this morning and it's back up and running. I still have a wager pending, but I imagine that will be graded soon.

**FakeNews916** · 11-02-17, 07:51 AM

I get you guys are just bettors... But these offshore books Mickey Mouse it on the IT staff. They should not have issues like this. They are big but not that big. Plenty of companies that have large volume and way better reliability.

All these A+ rated books shouldn't be having issues like this. Especially 5dimes, they use archaic web page design.

**5mike5** · 11-02-17, 09:48 AM

has not been down for me at all, but always use propbet instead of main site anyways

They are solid when it comes to payouts and pretty much everything else. Their props are great and you can find almost anything to bet on.

Bad part is that they force you out as soon as they starting to sense that you know what you're doing. I got limited to 10 bucks for NFL on gameday, which is a joke. If there is something books should be confident in, it's their lines on major leagues like NFL.

**Drydin** · 11-02-17, 06:05 PM

If it was just there website i wouldn't of even of thought twice about it "Maintenance of Course". But when it happens right after a Big Event World Series Game 7 then i go to call and there phones don't even ring. Coupled with having a very substantial amount in there anybody in there right mind would worry!

That will never happen under Tony's watchful eyes. But... if some 5D employee actually ever did do that?...or even tried to? I have no doubt in my mind at all that Tony would find that person and cut his or her balls off. That is a BIG deterrent to embezzlement.

Propbet.com was down at the same time as 5Dimes.

**Microphone** · 11-02-17, 11:23 PM

Good grief what a fun read that was. Sorry to you guys that couldn't get your 2:00 A.M. bets in

**ADR51** · 11-04-17, 12:13 PM

use mobile site, it is slow but it works!!

**scottgodson1985** · 11-04-17, 12:28 PM

still down for me on my pc

**HorsePlay** · 11-04-17, 12:30 PM

Anyone getting into 5Dimes? Was unaware of their problems on the 2nd until I saw this thread. Seems they were up all day yesterday.

**RonPaul2008** · 11-04-17, 12:30 PM

For what it's worth, the lines were not updating earlier this morning, but they have since been updating. I still can't log into their website, including the mobile.

**TheGuesser** · 11-04-17, 12:44 PM

Logged in at 8 this morning, all but $12.75, except $80 in legit bets, of my balance, which was over 2K, was bet on various lottos in 25 cent increments from 7:33-7:34 AM. Phone and chat support said it was a IT glitch affecting many, that would be fixed soon. Now, cannot log in at all, even to mirror site.
