    ABC Islands
    Generall speaking, I like this book, good baseball lines and apparently they have good teaser lines for the NFL.

    I deposited $2k, got $200 bonus, far exceeded the wagering requirements and ran up my balance to $4K. Wanted to take out $2k. They dont have checks, they wont do bank wire, they told me my only option was Moneygram or **, both of which cost $80 fee per $800 withdrawn.

    Every other place I have withdrawn from a bank check is either fee or a small fee, matchbook is $9, what are my options here, feel like my money is being held hostage and I cant get it out without paying insane fees. The guy I spoke with over there said they will have checks in mid-August.

    Anyone have any experience with these shenanigans.

      ABC/Jazz is a decent operation - I still keep a good balance there, since they are mandatory for football season with their teasers.

      Last time I checked, they had some book-to-book options. Are those still available?

        For ABC/Jazz, book to book withdraw options are only available if you did the deposit using book to book transfers.

          None whatsoever. You can only withdraw by **/** (if from US) ---$799 max with an $81 fee. Although you get it same day, the costs are outrageous. Also, only one withdrawal per name every 15 days. You can get more if you use spouse and friends as collectors. This Book has dropped significantly.

          (BTW, Looselines was absorbed by ABC recently--DPT Group is consolidating).

            Last I heard it was Cris/Bookmaker only. That was a while ago so it might not even be that anymore.

              I had no trouble getting 10k out of ABC Islands, but that was 2 months ago.

                  Several. Most of it was bankwire, which was fast.
