    "You can gamble it immediately, but we may snatch back all the winnings in a few days!"

    LOL That kind of "business model" is insanely ridiculous!

    This characterization of "business model" is unfair to the Books.

    Yes, the books want to make it as fast and easy as possible for you to deposit and lose.

    However, the Books are just following standard banking system check clearing rules that
    govern chargebacks and the timeframes allowed for bank processing of chargebacks.

    It might seem like books are free rolling players but the chargebacks are 100% determined by
    banks and payment processors. The Check clearing banking rules also determine how fast
    the withdrawal will take.

    The fact your join date is Join Date: 12-04-16 and you capitalize a real name (like the op), would lead a reasonable person into thinking your account is not all that legit.

    That makes it even worse. So, your view is that books should be able to offer credit nine times to the same person and assume zero risk?

    I can vouch for instadebit being the best way to move money to and from books that I've ever used.

    Do you work for Instadebit, or have any affiliation with them?

    IMO, they are a mickey mouse operation that can't be trusted. Bunch of clowns.

    OP's instagram deposit was dishonoured and Pinny cancelled all associated betting/winnings.

    Ill add my bank account details, just transfer me $5000 and ill run it up to $50000 playing blackjack and we can split $25,000 each. Kidding, sorry for your loss, hope it gets sorted out, i had deposited $990 in Pinnacle, ran it up to $3600, lost the $3600 over 5 black jack hands. End of story. Enjoy life, quit gambling.

    Now that's a story we can believe! Especially the part about being up $3600 playing online blackjack and losing it all in 5 hands.
