    5dimes suspended my account
    Hello, I logged into my 5dimes account this afternoon and it said sportsbook selection has been suspended, contact customer service. It was fine last night. Anyone heard of this before?

    Are you up at least $5000 on the sportsbook? If so, that is likely your answer.

            Could mean a lot of things, none of which are good. They aren't auditing your account because they think they owe you money. Have you been betting on obvious line errors? Were you credited with a win on a bet you should have lost?

                Is your account still viewable or are you locked out completely?

                    Possibly getting limited then. You will get your balance though no worries there, as long as you did not take a shot or reverse a deposit.

                      Yeah I've done nothing wrong on mine end. Do they usually limit you by suspending your account?

                        That may be a good sign.

                          Thanks for sharing. Audits are fairly routine and a sign of active risk management. Congrats on the nice balance.

                            thank you for the response SBR. Is there usually a time frame on these audits?

                              This is complete nonsense. I’ve had 65K in there. Never an issue. Because I don’t try to skim them. I play fair.

                                  If he's up $5000 from betting $100-$200 per game that will draw attention. If he won 10k in one bet, that is not going to trigger a review. Generally from what I've seen people get limited after being up around 20k off 5dimes. However, have seen lower and have seen people claim up 100k and not be limited.

                                  They are a large enough book that if someone simply is getting lucky but not beating closing line, they're fine to continue taking their action.

                                        I understand them doing a review, but is it really necessary to lock the account causing the player worry and inconvenience?

                                          Had my account suspended from not depositing in a long time. I deposited and they brought it out of suspension. Never had any other issues with them.

                                                  I did not. I asked if he was up $5k or more, which is the smallest amount I have seen someone get limited. He is being reviewed, he COULD be limited or he could be allowed to play again.

                                                        I've been saying the same thing for years. But I think we are both going to be waiting forever for a real egalitarian model one.

                                                        The only ones being developed are based on their own coins and are designed to make profits for investors. I will bet dollars to donuts not one of them ever gets traction in the market.

                                                        Wagerr thinks taking a 5% skim is what is needed for their blockchain based person to person book to operate for example.

                                                        Delusional crypto investors who don't know sportsbetting, or dont care because the ICO suckers paid them up front.

                                                              I think Easter is a big holiday in CR.

                                                              May not hear anything before Tuesday at a guess.

                                                                That could very well be the case, but it's still no excuse for my account being suspended for no reason and it not being fixed. It's been 3-4 days, surely thats long enough

This appears to be more that a guy winning too much, which is usually resolved same day with an A+ Book. 5D owes him an explanation as to what they suspect the OP is guilty of doing. Can SBR provide some insight as to why their sponsor Book has an indefinite hold on his account? Not too much to ask of 5D, is it?
