    Bookmaker Bitcoin

    What happened to the bitcoin withdrawals being offered at the site. Sometime shortly after christmas they got rid of them and were only offering them to "high volume" players. Yet, bitcoin is advertised all over the site, but when you want to get more then $2,000 off the site now, you can't. The most easy and efficient way to get money off the sportsbook is no longer an acceptable option, how surprising.

    There is a direct bitcoin telephone number for payouts that Bookmaker management encourages players to call: 1-855-535-4947.

    They should be able to help or explain why your account is not authorized for them right now.

    Would they accept a 2k bitcoin deposit from you? Just curious.

    Anyone who recently deposited 4 figures via BTC is encouraged to chime in. I'm pretty sure Bookmaker is just being ... well a bookmaker. These guys will do anything to prevent money going out.

    They will accept up to 25k in deposits via bitcoin, but will not let you withdraw with bitcoin for reasons you just mentioned. What really bothers me is that all their sister sites allow bitcoin withdrawals. Bookmaker got rid of it completely without notifying anyone just after christmas.

    They did not get rid of it totally. If you call the phone number I provided above a rep will either enable it for you or explain why your account does not qualify.

    I made a 4 figure deposit via BTC last week as soon as it was dipping from 430 to just below 400. I was afraid of a bigger drop so I went ahead and deposited. Just a few days ago, I tried to make a BTC withdrawal, I was transferred to the VIP department, but the reason I couldn't get a withdrawal was because I had to incur a 1x rollover of my deposit. No other issues besides that from my experience with Bookmaker.

    I got a13,000 bitcoin payout last week from bookmaker. They had briefly disabled the option but then reactivated it. I also, only use the bitcon method for all deposits and withdrawels. I called that number that was posted above, and spoke with JJ, he was able to take care of it. I guarantee you will have 0 issues withdrawing large amounts.

    I've talked with them numerous times about it. They say: "you need more volume before we will enable it," basically so I can lose money. They never give specifics about how many more bets i need to place or what is needed to qualify. I will check back again to see if it is enabled, or maybe I need to talk to the right person. Telling them I will leave the book if it is not activated didn't do anything, which I eventually did.
