Reason for cease of Sportsbook.com complaints?

[HedgeHog]

if you mess with sportsbook.com they're going to screw you but if you play legitimately nothing is going to happen.

Spoken like a true SB.com shill. Plenty of better Books out there--why deal with this POS outfit?

[cinpls081]

The bottom line is you morons could be making money instead you come on here and slam a company that pays in less the 24 hours. Anyone who is thinking about using sbook is crazy to not open an account. As for guys who got shut down fine they are not telling us the entire story so again its easy to slam them

[HedgeHog]

It's moronic that people still play at SB despite overwhelming evidence of past theft. What makes you think it won't happen again? Once a thief, always a thief.

You may be right about that but in the meantime take 10-20 from them in a couple of months...

Isn´t there a thread somewhere here, 100000 pages long....actually it´s prolly the longest thread ever created here lol..called "sportsbook.com withdrawal delay" or something similiar?

Check it out

Tomato has checked it out before starting this thread.

The thread essentially died as people stopped complaining, there hasn't been complaints all year, hence the start of this thread.

Tomato is wondering if there are any complaints that didn't involve:

1) Correlated parlay betting
2) Bonuses

Multiple accounts was another reason to steal. If you have accounts at any of their sister Books, they can confiscate your funds.

Gambleballs and durito, i am in your shoes right now. Gambleballs, especially. So did they stiff you or are you waiting for your final check or did you get it??????? Please post.

And to you other guys, sportsbook straight shut me down to, with the same email statement. I thought maybe its because i'm a dick online. But i'm only a dick when someone is trying to f. With me, ya know.

But hey i guess its a compliment cuz i won my last 6 out of 7 bets before they cut me off, and i sweep or go 75% like every night.

After reading this thread and many like it I thought, eh **** it lets see what this is all about. Put a 100 into a sportsbook.com account hit a Parlay and requested the payout and didnt ask for the bonus. They cancelled payout and asked me for a bunch of stuff. I had fun chatting with them. Many great books I discovered online, sportsbook is a joke.

Since you were basically an asshole from the first sentence you wrote in the Chat, I'm surprised the guy didn't tell you to **** off.

How old are you anyway ? 14 ?

To be fair, I have noticed a recent change in attitude from management. One of the people I have spoken to has worked hard to fix things (the two complaints I've had in the last 6 months were cleared up quickly).

If only they hadn't stolen high 6-figures from parlay winners...

Sorry I didnt see this sooner. They say they are sending payment after they verify my details. Which I had already sent in for previous withdraws, but they want it again, with updated bills and bank statements when I hadnt moved or used any new deposit methods. Sounds like they are just trying to find a reason not to pay or at least slow pay my final withdraw. Ill post when/if i receive payment.

[gambleballs]

If only they hadn't stolen high 6-figures from parlay winners...

Indeed. None of the directly connected Sportsbook.com books deserve any sort of upgrade without addressing these past issues. Doesn't matter if they are paying now and resolving complaints or not. If they did it once and got away with it, they will certainly pull a similar stunt in the future.

[aggieshawn]

sportsbook are crooks - plain and simple. sure the have legit players that they pay. but then they will turn on anyone or anything because you try and get one of the bonus they bombard you with.

[gambleballs]

My closed account finally got paid the balance.

Unfortunately I had to take their word for what the balance was, and that I didnt have any pending futures, because they wouldn't let me login.
