My last $1,000 that I received was July 21st. Since then, I have waited 9 weeks for a $1,000 withdrawal and still have not received it. So I have received a total of only $3,950 in 23 weeks. Here are the dates of my requests and when I have received a payment:

    Request: April 15th
    Received: May5th (Requested $1,000, only received $950)

    Request: May 5th
    Received: May 27th ($1,000)

    Request: May 27th
    Received: June 8th ($1,000)

    Request: June 8th
    Received: July 21st ($1,000)

    Request: July 21st
    Received: Still Waiting

    I made a total of $6,000 in deposits, so I have not even received my deposit amounts back. I have not placed a single wager since my first withdrawal request and still have a balance of $15,286.

    The only way I can receive a withdrawal is Neteller or a transfer to another sportsbook. At the time I signed up with them, they still offered transfers to The Greek and CRIS. When I went to finally request my first withdrawal, I found that they no longer offered the transfer to other sportsbooks. So the only way I can request is by Neteller. When I asked why they cannot simply replenish their Neteller account, they told me that they have a general policy to not send their own funds to Neteller. So I must wait for others to deposit in order to get paid.

    They have offered to send me withdrawals by either person to person money transfer or wire, but neither of those options will work for me.
    I live in Japan. ** closed its one location in Japan. ** only has one location, which happens to be quite far from where I live and is only open during bank hours, when I cannot even go there due to my daytime job.
    I cannot receive a wire as I no longer have a regular bank account for my own reasons. The illegality of online gambling and the funds derived from it is also an issue that I have encountered legal problems with in the past so I would like to avoid any gambling related funds from being 'on the books' here.

    What I simply cannot understand is why they have a policy with their Neteller merchant account that is similar to a Ponzi-scheme where they can only pay winners if there are more losers. Why are they not willing to accomodate me and, instead of sending me a wire, send it to Neteller instead so they can pay me that way.

    Can anyone think of any solution for me here? Has there really not been enough Neteller deposits in the past 9 weeks to even pay me my next $1,000 installment? Or is Skybook just trying their very best not to pay me?
    It seems they are waiting for you to lose all the money you haven't been able to wd.

    Be patient... give them a leasson

    Leda82,

    You could have them send me the money either wire or person to person and I would send you the money via Overnight fedex for a small fee.

    Back in 08 this was a must have out for college basketball...what was it Friday night free point or something promotion. Or maybe it was Monday Night. applied to all bets. I know for a fact at one point the promotion saved me over 1k in winnings... And they use to be slow to move lines... It was a great out back then. they paid fast too...**/**/Wires.

    The net teller thing was lame and they obvious went downhill...
