    Legends ****** me
    When I opened my account at Legends, no one said there was a 10% penalty on my entire balance if I closed my account without a 1X rollover. They're crooks. If SBR gave them an A+ rating, then I wouldn't trust any of the SBR ratings.

    Dave,

    Most books won't let you withdraw until you rollover at least once, sometimes more.

    Did they tell you before they processed the withdrawal?

              Does this somehow mitigate fraud? If this is their policy, they should tell you before you deposit money in the account, not after.

                  these posts have to stop..you would think every book out there is in the business to take your money and are the worst to do business with. I opened an acct with lengendz and asked them if there was a rollover etc....they pay your deposit fees and are in business to book action not to be a bank of sorts.

                    So what is this forum for? Is there a more appropriate forum for this thread? Legends hasn't ****** you yet, so I should just shut up? This forum is reserved for people who have only nice things to say about their books?

                      EXACTLY.

                      It shows your immaturity when you come on SBR and complain about a 1x rollover. Why even deposit if you're only going to bet some of the money you deposit and then withdraw it immediately?

                          If I want my money back, I'm immature?

                            About 1/3. I'm not sure what an Interbook is, but the deposit was **.

                              Well, the only fair resolution I could see is:

                              Your balance goes to you minus any ** fees they covered...that seems fair. But again, they should of warned you of the penalty for early withdrawal.

                                They deducted the ** fee. I don't have a problem with that. Then they deducted 10% on the balance of the account. That I have a problem with.

                                      How stupid of me. I should lose it all before I ask for my money back.

If you're trying to say that I wasn't ******, I don't buy it. About your laughing icon, I don't appreciate it. I've had a bad day and you're piling on, so stick that icon up your ass.

                                            You just have to read the rules on all the sportsbook before depositing. Also keep in mind that sportsbooks are not banks. They were not created to store money(because this can be used to launder money), that's why a 1 time rollover exist.

                                              I concur w/ acarmelo. Most books have this rule in place.

                                                  How stupid of me. I should lose it all before I ask for my money back.

                                                  If you couldn't afford to lose it all you shouldn't have put it in!

                                                  So yes, how stupid of you!

                                                    do the rules state this?

                                                        If it is boiler plate, but EVERY one has the same rule, it's reasonable. I wasn't even aware that some books let you withdraw before meeting 1x rollover.

                                                        I'm sorry you're upset. I can see how a person would be surprised by this if they never had bet before... but if you're new, it's more important than ever to read the rules and learn how things operate.

                                                          That sucks if they processed the withdrawal without telling you.

                                                            Why did you deposit that amount in the first place unless you were planning on betting the balance at least once? I mean I can come up with possible scenarios but all are on the sketchy side and probably aren't things that would make any book want you ever as a potential customer... In other words I think there is alot more to the OP story as it makes no sense to deposit (I'm making up numbers) say a dime if you only going to bet a couple hundred and want a withdraw without a least having the intention to put the money in action at least once and (if the OP was trying something similar to what I have in mind) he should have been aware enough to having taken the time to find out the rule about rollover given that these type of rules are pretty universal and the outcome of not providing any significant action was a likely outcome of OP's deposit...
