Would yo trust a high balance in Youbetonit?

**punintended** · 02-04-22, 04:58 PM

Happy to hear people are getting paid, wish I could say the same.

I have 32k stuck here and have been waiting over a month for my first payout.

This week on Monday I was told that I would be contacted this week. On Thursday I followed up and they said "We will complete soon". I asked when and received no response. Contacted them in the chat today and was told "They will contact you when they are ready to make the transfer" with no timeline on when that would be.

Who do I need to speak with to get paid here?!

From Fred.. the guy that does payouts there..

Ah, I see we're back to the "new investors" / "new backers" excuse again. I hope it's true for the sake of people with money suck in there, but it's really weird to see a sportsbook go through this cycle of hard times > NEW INVESTORS! twice in the span of 5 months.

Personally, I will not be depositing any money until they can demonstrate an ability to pay people without depending on new deposits.

Any payment updates on this first day of the week? Hoping hard they straighten out their ship.

Nothing for me. Just endless replies of "Working on it" whenever I reach out asking for some sort of timeline for getting paid.

The new investors talk is super funny.

If a new investor wants a piece of a sinking ship, the 1st thing they would do is plug the holes by immediately wiping out the debt. That's the only way their name can ever survive.

That hasn't happened at all.

I would guess they are easily 6 figures in debt just in this thread, let alone the people getting shafted who don't even know about SBR.

These trickling payments to posters are Super Bowl deposits, not a new investor who decides to throw out a couple dimes here and there while no one else gets paid.

**Mr. NBA** · 02-07-22, 09:41 PM

I put in a new address today.......sounds to me I'll get paid this week. I'll report back when I get home.

Over a month. Still waiting for my first withdrawal. They said they would call me today.

**rustygsbr** · 02-09-22, 08:28 PM

no news this week IS NOT good news. Any more payment reports?

**HedgeHog** · 02-10-22, 12:21 PM

$1000 just received from YBOI. This is the second half of my original 2k request. I was paid 1k last week with a promise to get the 2nd half by the Super Bowl. They delivered on that today,

**Mr. NBA** · 02-12-22, 11:38 PM

Just got back from Mexico and received another payment......was told more is on the way as they knock out more payments in front of me. Really happy to see them continue to work through this.

**TryingMyBest** · 02-15-22, 11:17 AM

I am owed over 20K. My first payout has been pending since December 22nd. I was just told “you’re on the list for this week”. I’ll update if/when it comes through.

**harvesters** · 02-15-22, 12:17 PM

Jan 4th for me. I will also update if/when it comes through.

It's probably good that you posted here so everyone can see this incredibly slow pay. Now they have more incentive to prioritize your payout.

**jjgold** · 02-15-22, 02:22 PM

Stay away

**Miz** · 02-15-22, 04:25 PM

waiting for the next payout myself.

**rustygsbr** · 02-17-22, 11:31 AM

Once again; lack of news not a great sign. Any new reports? The people at YBOI seem so nice and reassuring; I so hope they can pull themselves together. This does not seem like a scam shop but rather some poor business decisions. Hopefully they can right their ship.

**creed** · 02-17-22, 11:42 AM

OMG Do people need to get hit in the head with a BRICK ? This bumble gum shop is the kind of place that gives offshore sites a bad name.

**DISTROYA** · 02-19-22, 04:09 PM

A lot of us have accounts there for a long time most of the posters here didn't just sign up

**Frank** · 02-19-22, 05:48 PM

Luckily, for me, they booted me 2 years ago.

Someone I talked to told me said was promised his 1st payment by this week and heard crickets.

He requested it in October.

I hope everyone gets paid but it doesn't look good.

2/17: Received email requesting BTC address so “we can get you money this week”

2/19: Sent follow up email asking when it would be sent. Did not receive a reply.

Today: contacted them via live chat, was told “something happened. You will be paid this week”.

Just received $1,000 told another $1,000 will follow shortly. It's stressful but these timelines aren't hugely longer than they've been previously.

**Miz** · 02-22-22, 01:04 PM

I offered to settle with them for 50 cents on the dollar if they would pay me out in full right now. They said it was very tempting, but no and that they want to pay me the full balance. So they paid another 2k today. With a promise of another 1k to come soon. So they have paid me 2k twice now and are giving a solid effort to make things right. They are still replying to email, and obviously would prefer some deposits come in to cover things but they seem to really be trying. If they were gonna stiff people i imagine they would have stopped replying or paying by now. Anyway, this happened this morning and it is good news, so i thought i would post it

So what we learned is they cannot afford to pay you 50% of what they owe you right now.

**Miz** · 02-22-22, 02:58 PM

its true, but it should be noted that they are making a good faith effort to make it right. They got overextended and are pretty honest about it. They need a little time to absorb the hit but they are still attempting to make payments.

**Miz** · 02-22-22, 10:35 PM

they followed up with a phone call after the payout.

Situation isn't ideal, but they are trying. just reporting the facts

**TryingMyBest** · 02-23-22, 12:45 PM

Received 1K yesterday

**Mr. NBA** · 02-25-22, 11:32 AM

Glad to see everyone getting paid.....I have not sent them a btc address in a while. Decided to give them a break as they have been sending me payments inside a week for the last couple like clockwork. I will probably send them a new address Monday.....I'll keep everyone posted. Have a great weekend gang.

I'm not sure we have - I know I wouldn't want to be the book that has to agree with it's players to only give them 50% of what they were owed. That seems like a short-term solution.

**DISTROYA** · 02-28-22, 05:09 PM

5 weeks and counting here, just like that...they have a structure, but this is just nuts.
Keep asking and getting same response, "will let u know." Not much to do but wait.
