    Deposited just under 4 figures just hours before seeing this thread. They're not the heroes they might think they are

    The lower level had no idea this was happening. Assuming they are now out of jobs.

    Hard to fault them for doing their job as usual.

    it shows the people that run the site are total scum., Anyone that meets the rollover at wagerweb should pull all their cash out via p2p until they have it all, i'm sure you can do that once a week.

    What do u guys think? Maybe they didn't tell nobody and didn't want to lose all of there customers and maybe bought out Wagerweb without letting anyone know about it. Think about it why else would they pick them out of the bunch to send there customers to? They know Wagerweb isn't the greatest so maybe they bought them cheaply to keep all the customers. Thats just my take on this.

    Total scum is a bit harsh..comparing this book and WSEX is apples and oranges.

    WSEX knowingly took deposits when they were in full no pay mode. BI shut the doors immediately and failed to give players a solution. Both in my book are scam operators.

    Legends, upon realization they would be able to continue moved players to another book, albeit with a 10x roll. Now, it sucks to be tied up if you didnt take a bonus...but the time between the indictment and shut down is small, so fewer potential victims here.

    That also said, neither of us KNOW that they would hold someone who deposited to the 10x roll. Its there to prevent a runon the book...their processor clearly cant handle everyone leaving at once...mabeye they will grant exceptions to those cases..we dont know that yet.

    Point is, there are alt of people in this industry who have pulled dirtier moves. BetED,BI,WSEX all blatantly stole funds...at least legends worked something out.

    I understand the run on the book. But 10x seems excessive and if and when someone who has a larger balance does roll it, I can't wait to see the thread where he is labeled a pro or a steam chaser and the person can't the their money out.

    The whole mission statement of no professional players and 10x roll seems contradictory.

    I just contacted CS and they have dropped the roll over to 5x. I have an account with them and they told me that I could have my legendz balance placed into my account but it did come witha 5x roll over, and no funds could be withdrawn until the roll was met. I have had many payouts with them in the past. They offer same day p2p upto 800 and then a check for larger amount upto 3k. The check they will tell you upfront takes much longer. They have always treated me well and when i win they pay me same day. I also asked them about the clause you referred to. They told me that if your a steam chaser no book would take your action, and a pro has nothing to do with balance or amount of money in your account. The manager told m that" if you consistently bet late wagers or wager on lines that move you will be notified about the problem. If it continues then your account can be closed and you asked to play elsewhere, but arrangements would be made on a case by case basis regarding the funds you have in your account". I have played other places as well and its all the same. Way i see it .. the roll over isnt cool but its better then having nothing which is what I would have if Wagerweb didnt take my legends balance.

    Still alot of grey area in your posts, is this a special deal for you or is it for everyone. Also, is a deposit required or not... Your comment on PRO or STEAM plays though was very good for people too know.

    Loon feel free to go on chat or give them a call to verify. When i got the email late friday night that this was happening, and I already had a wagerweb account I was immediately on the phone trying to findout what was going on. I have been dealing with a guy named Xavier and Dave for the better part of a year over there, and they have never steered me wrong.
