    Skytowercasino/Gamblerspalace – Slow pay or No Pay
    It is amazing how creative can bookmakers be in delaying payouts. I am going to share with you the short version of what I v going through to get $500 out of my $4950 owed to by this bunch. (I have scripts of every chat I had with them so everything stated below can be substantiated).

    1. June 29, 2009 (“George”) – Requested $1000 withdrawal into Moneybookers on the chatline with George - “3-5 days to process”
    2. July 4, 2009 (“George”) – “Sorry sir, this is a holiday here today no one in the account department – you will get paid by Tuesday for sure.”
    3. July 6, 2009 – (“George”) – “yours is on the batch for tomorrow sir, I took care of that myself”
    4. July 7, 2009 – (“George”) – “Darla is taking care of the payouts right now”
    5. July 7, 2009 – I requested another $1000 withdrawal - online this time
    6. July 8, 2009 – (“Glen” – he is the Big boss ‘General Manager’) – “I cannot find your request from June, 29 on the system ... I can only see the one from last night.” – Glen put another $1000 on the system for me to make up for the one lost from June 29.
    7. July 11, 2009 (“George”) – “Glen is now in charge of your account – try and get hold of him on Monday”
    8. July 11, 2009 - I requested another $1000 withdrawal – online again (cashier page)
    9. July 15, 2009 – Remember the request Glen put manually on the system to compensate for the one lose from June 29 – cancelled – why? – 1 request max $1000 per 7 days …. (Note! Something new – I have proof from my chat with Glen [General Manager] that you may request $1000 every second day” – and what that got to do with the one put manually to compensate for the one lost from June 29.)
    10. July 16, - I get $500 in my Moneybookers account - $25 fee – the fee stated on there site $20 for Moneybookers … so $20 of $1000 is 2%, $25 of $500 is 5% processing fee. Bye the way $1000 requested now not show as pending (although the account balance is correct)
    11. July 18, 2009 (“Darla”) – “you will get paid” (sounds very promising doesn’t it?… she does know when that will happened but the conviction is there “you will get paid”.)
    12. July 19, 2009 - I requested another $1000 withdrawal - online this time

    So let’s sum up where I stand 4 weeks from the start of this agonizing process:

    I requested 4 x $1000 payouts
    1 lost in the system & Replaced by the GM manually and which was then deleted
    I got $500 of $4000 requested and lots of promises got charged $25 = 5%

    Not a bad way to deal with payouts – let customers request payouts – they just delete them or lose them and lie lie & lie.

    These guys are a bunch of dishonest liars – If it took them a month to scrape $500 (of $4000 requested) for me after 12 chats and many promises then I think this will be a very long story... these guys deserve an F+ at best.

    What upsets me about the whole thing is that they are rated C, which is a rating I d give to an honest book who simply not as big as Willhill or Pinnacle… and just to put things in perspective Bwin (C-) & Sportingbet (D+) Sports Interactions (D+) are rated below this bunch and I don’t know anyone who hasn’t been paid promptly by them. Don’t get me wrong these 3 are bastards in their own right but at least they pay promptly.

      I get this email today:

      Dear Customer;
      Due to seasonal restrictions on processing amounts set in place by financial institutions we are sorry to inform you that your payout will take a bit longer than usual. Please understand that these restrictions on limits are in no way related to the availability of your winnings however to process your withdrawal via the requested method will regrettably take a bit longer than usual as we work
      to stay under the set limits imposed on us. I will pass your account information onto the accounting department and they will contact you with an estimated time frame for when you can expect to receive your winnings. Again we are very sorry for the delay, but be assured that we are constantly working to improve our processing capabilities to avoid these delays in the future. Come the middle of september they will allow more to flow through and in a timely manner.
      We are working with the banks at this time to get things fixed. I will keep you posted.
      Regards
      Laura

      ==============

      I wonder what these guys are all about - are they for real?

      and what is "seasonal restritions" - the only thing which I can think of is that they are cash strapped and they are waiting for the Football season to start so that they can get some money in otherwise they cannot pay. I dont undersatnd how they can run a business like that without paying customers.

      and what I do not understand more than that is how can they be rated C on SBR

      C rating is a super compliment for them... These guys-Skytowercasino/Gamblerspalace- if they deserve any rating at all it would F-... every word coming out their mouth is a lie.

      I filed an official complaint with SBR and I hope that they will deal with that like they always do with bullies like that... so far I heard nothing from anyone at SBR.

          received 800 or so when I requested about 1200. This was back in april/may - they were very slow and stripped me of my bonus cause I only played props.

          obviously things are tight in the off season for a lot of small books - not much help I know - hopefully with sept. coming money will flow a little

            just an update for everyone on this book - still slow pay / no pay .... paid me $1000 of $5000 balance in 2 months ... absolutely shocking. My SBR offcial complaint is also not making a difference... no luck there either.
