    Good for Bodog.ca!

    I made my first payout request.

    Usual hoops, including my first ever tracing of credit card.

    But they approved everything I sent in 24 hours, and told me today my check is in the mail.

    Better than I expected so far. Have had books torment me far more for less reasons......

    I love how every book has their own completely arbitrary system for creating the illusion of security on credit card transactions.

    Well yeah, all that shit does blow, but WTF, only 24 hours of it wasn't bad. I have spent weeks doing imaginary security at some of the Sportsbook.com sites.

    I received an email today from Bodog that they are sending me another check for the bad check they sent to me on Christmas eve. They usually take 4 business days. Third time check problem, I just hope the bank/credit union doesn't start holding the check since they are from Canada. I deposit it via ATM Machine and they have been treating it like cash (probably since I have been a client at the bank for 20 years).

    I have another payout pending. They always make good but I don't like seeing a bounced check from Canada raising eyebrows.

    They did have a few US banks issue checks, one time a check was bad but was told to redeposit it. I went to the bank the check was drawn on. They had me sit down, the bank person looked it up and said, "Just a minute and walked to the back." OH Crap I thought. He came back and said that the funds were available and I received the proceeds.

    I know they have to play musical chairs but, maybe I should switch from check payout to something else.
    Not many options.

    Did they have ANY other options? I didn't see any.

    Can't see why they don't do moneybookers. It is cheaper, faster and it works. WTF.

    Good to hear on payouts.

    They started taking Canadians around the time of the SBR convention Josh. I signed up around that time.

    Lines are same as US Bodog I think. Limits seem OK, generally $500 with $300 on props.

    See if I get paid fast now, payout did get approved fast. Waiting on $1200.

    I have some good news! I spoke with the head of finance at Bodog Europe, the company that runs Bodog.ca, and he said- and I quote- "It will literally be any day now. Possibly as early as tomorrow".

    I shall keep you posted, he promised to let me know when MB is officially available.

    That would be great Becky, it is a much better option for all concerned.

    It is not hard to set up, some of the books I deal with even do it out of a personal moneybookers account, no one seems to care at Moneybookers, as long as the volume is not too high.

    Good point Locksmith. I like Instadebit just fine as well. Only bad thing, it has a $1000 a week limit on deposits, at least mine does. But works good, fast, efficent.

    Received check via Fedex for 3 figures today, requested 1/2. 3rd different bank in 4 weeks, we were doing great for a while.

    I expect reimbursement for the bad one Friday or Monday. They do make good and don't try to delay and hope you lose or give you a run around. Be it by phone/email/chat they have been as fair, professional and fast to correspond on issues. Give credit where credit is due.

    Hey there! According to the director of finance at Bodog.ca, InstaDebit will not be an option. If anyone is looking for a method to deposit using their bank account, Bodog.ca offers ********* which is very similar to Instadebit. Customers can register their banking information with ********* and instantly transfer funds to their Bodog account.

    I will let you know when MB is available as an option...any day now!

    Yes Becky, please do post here when any information regarding Moneybookers hits the news wires. Right now the lack of that option is the only reason I have not signed on with Bodog.
