I've finally settled on 5Dimes as my first sportsbook and I want to know:

1. Do I have to put down my real address? I live with my parents and they'll go crazy if they find out about this

2. If I do need to put down my real address, will they send any mail even if I don't deposit? Will they send any mail if I do deposit?

3. Can I do my transactions strictly thru ** and/or Moneygram, so that nothing will be traced back to me at my home address?

I've talked to the customer support on live help at 5 dimes and they haven't been very helpful.

Ive been with 5dimes for years and my opinion is that they are the best book out there. I have never received even one piece of mail form them, so therefore I would suggest using your real address. And yes, you can do all of your deposits and payouts though either western union or money gram. They dont have great bonuses but do have very reduced juice, lots of props, fast payouts, xtra bonus on all winning horse wagers, etc. Good choice going with 5dimes.

Thank you for your answer. I also want to know if **/** asks for your address. If they do, do they send any mail etc?

Yes **/** ask for address but I never get anything sent home. I am in the same situation as you. Don't want my parents finding out either. Hey Foals, do you mind giving me a referral bonus? Just mention my 5Dimes account number to live chat and say that I referred you. I would appreciate it.

Very good choice, 5dimes always in my top 3 picks.

I totally agree.

Just tell them you don't want to get any mail there.

Thanks Foals. Can you send me an e-mail so I can give you the account number? I don't want to post my 5Dimes info on a public forum for safety reasons. My email is in my signature and it's at yahoo.com.

Rush: xx54144@yahoo.com > that's your email?

ringemup · 07-01-10, 12:37 AM

better intercept the mail lol

Thanks for the responses guys, you have really helped me. One last question - when does 5dimes usually give out reduced juice lines? All I see on the NFL and WNBA lines are -110

Except for overnight nickel lines on MLB, reduced juice usually appears on gameday... times vary by sport and can be a bit random.

You won't see reduced vig for NFL for a while since the season is so far away, but reduced WNBA will be available later today.

Yes Foals. Please e-mail. Really do appreciate it

most books will allow an alternate mail drop. the key is to get everything agreed to before the first deposit. some will even allow you to use a professional name. yes, it is perfectly legal. the most important thing is to get everything you desire in a custom setup in writing(email), so that they can't accuse you of fraud at a later date as an excuse to deny payout.

i don't rec using a home phone or cell account under your given name. tell them upfront that a working phone # will be provided to them, but it will not be under your name. use a skype number or prepaid cell under an alternate name for all calls to your books.

also, GP will allow you to use alternate mail drops for checks on payout, and other flexible options to protect your privacy and identity.

remember, you have the power before you deposit. if privacy is your concern take your time and get everything in writing for revue by SBR in the event of a dispute.
