Slower processing times for payouts on winning bets?

[Newbie1977]

Hey, has anyone else had to wait forever for their bets to get settled? Like, you gotta hit up customer support just to get it done? 🙄

If a sportsbook is trying to rip you off, they will stall you when you try to request a payout.

That's why there's always a cancel button next to your withdrawal request while it's "pending". They want you to change your mind and decide to gamble it away.

5dimes.eu always did this, and their payouts were always "pending" for several days.

Unfortunately, I fell for it myself several times like a stupid dumba$$, until I learned my lesson.

What book, and what sport/event?

Some sports can take longer to settle. For example, motor racing (because of post-race disqualifications).

Bets to get settled. Not a withdrawal to be processed & paid.

Losers are easy to grade, risk free for the book if they make an error.

So they take more care with grading winners.

But it only hurts the book to keep your winnings on hold as you can't rebet them. So 99% chance it's just an understaffed book.
