    And why are they rated so highly? They have IT issues every sunday before kickoff on top of what I just described

    This isn't the first time I have heard they have payout troubles with cheques. Go with Pinny if you can. Bookmaker if you can't.

    Unfortunately no, you can't use Pinnaclesports if you are in the US. You could try Bookmaker, I hear they are good for US clients. Heritagesports is good too. Their site has a nice interface. I'm a bit apprehensive about recommending a book though, I have noticed that people's payout experiences are very different for US and Canadian clients. Maybe someone from the US with many different accounts can help suggest a good book.

    Ive been using betdsi and like it. I think they're backed by bookmaker but you may want to double check that. They have an A+ rating from SBR. Ive never had trouble getting ahold of a real person to talk to whenever I've needed and I'm from the US.

    I've barely used them since they split from bodog. Back then my payouts would be delayed sometimes but I got it eventually. I've noticed several complaints about them in other forums too.

    8 days is not bad, I waited 9 months for World Sports Exchange to pay, and it took constant harassment, contacting their lawyers, and a couple emails from SBR to get them to pay!

    I have not been thrilled with 5Dimes this season other, also looking for somewhere else to go next fall.

    I know vanilla is the only word your hear about Legends, but my paper has never bounced, I get it in a timely fashion and just bet the major sports, so if you're looking for "exotic stuff, forget it. But I like them. Not love, but like.

    Its more the fact that they tell you 7 max and then say there are delays. Saying there are delays without giving any specifics is suspicious

    Renegades - Are you in the USA?
    This is for a courier check?


    Mods - Has anyone checked into this? What is the issue?

    I also requested fedex check from 5D on December 3, still has not arrived. My last one arrived in 2 days. Will contact them early next week, I know in the past they say it takes 10 business days.

    Processor problems happen for every US-facing book from time to time. 5Dimes has been one of the quickest in the industry with this method for years and years (has always taken 3 days for me). You will get paid. Relax.

    And this is part of the reason they are rated so highly by the way. A rare processor issue does not cancel out a decade+ of paying quickly.

    Same here, in fact I've almost always been paid in exactly 3 days when requesting my free Monday payout. This is quite an anomaly.
