Seeking help;5 Dimes customers -- comments about their operation would be appreciated

[Chambers99]

Being a long term Bodog customer, I have heard good things about 5Dimes but before I proceed with them, I would be very much appreciative if posters who have done business with them would comment on their current treatment of customers and how quickly they make large payouts. They claim that there are no limitations for NY residents. Any NY'ers out there with experience with them?

Thanks to everyone who helps me.

They are good and have alot of options, if u use any SBR recommended books u should have no problems. Go for 5dimes if u want and u should have no issues there.

You should probably define "large payouts." A few grand is large to some and pocket change to others.

In any case, I can say that the free method per 30 days with a low 4-figure maximum always arrives for me in 3 days.

It is pretty rare that a player gets a large payout (which I define as >20k). 5dimes usually shuts down pro players before your balance gets too big.

I did have one dispute a year ago where 5dimes ended up paying a player about 70k, and it was done very fast -- a couple days I think.

Thanks for the info everyone. It seems like I would be hearing more negativity if anyone had any bad stories about them.

5Dimes is currently #4 in the SBR Posters Poll, after two consecutive polls as #1.

They are a book that often is the subject of forum flame wars, due to their owner's colorful style over live chat if he feels a player is violating their rules, but they've never to date not paid a player.

Very interesting. I wonder what the reasoning was for the rating decline in the minds of the posters.

It seems like they have no limitations for NY residents, which is of much benefit to me, unless the person I was speaking to was uninformed.

he told you why they are #4 now.... go back and read

He didn't say that this behavior by the owner began this month. He implied that it's always been the case. So, back to my original question.....I wonder what caused the decline.

Once deleted a winning wager completely from my accounts history and returned the stake, limited me to $50 on College football and NFL, Other then that no probs

BetOnline and 5dimes have some interesting linesman, nice variety. 5dimes even has challenger lines in tennis. The options for Americans shopping for lines seems to dwindle every day, I am just glad they are still around. I love the book.
