I have enough money in my accounts for them to be worthwhile to include in my will. Will my benefactors have any issues getting access to my accounts after I die?

I suspect that largely depends on the merit of the books you deal with and whether your executors know of the existence of your accounts and how to access them.Comment -
If I specify the funds in the will with book names, account numbers, and passwords, then I know they have the info to contact the books. The larger issue is whether the books will comply with my will. I wonder if they would comply if my benefactors showed them my will and account info. Books always state that payouts can only be made in the name of the account holder.Originally posted by Hareeba!
Maybe it is easier to give my account info to my benefactors and have them impersonate me to get my payouts.Comment -
Certainly the best option.Originally posted by msdw1
I've instructed my family to withdraw all funds immediately and not tell the books of my death or incapacity.
No need for any complications.Comment -
Don't keep large figures in any book offshore exception being pinnacle if you are a non us playerComment -
Dont keep large figures in any book offshore, EVEN if it is pinnacle. If you passed away, leave instructions not to announce your dead and have them withdraw all the funds on your name.
Finally, enjoy life my friend, it is true what they say... its too short.Comment -

this must be extra income for books
feels like swiss banks with ww2 money....Comment -
starting fresh with a new deposit or maybe for example if this person has 50,000 in the account withdraw 49,000 and keep playing with 1000 left in there either way player is satisfied. what a stupid question. "pardon the pun"Originally posted by Hareeba!

I agree that one shouldn't leave more in an account than is required for relatively short term betting needs. But are there really people who leave $50k in an account if $1,000 is all they're likely to be betting in the next fortnight or so?Originally posted by brettels
And I'm fortunate in that it doesn't cost me to deposit and withdraw like those poor sods in the US who I can understand would find it far more economic to leave funds with a book than continually be withdrawing and depositing.
But all that aside, the problem for a deceased's family/executor is the same whether the balance is $1k or $50k .. only the degree is different.Comment -

If there is a lot of money in offshore accounts, it is important to leave detailed instructions on how to withdraw.Comment -

Leave a copy of an SBR complaint form in your will if the books don't respond?sbrComment -
The original question is an important one - and some, though not all, here are treating that way.
I'm surprised I never saw it come up here before. Has anyone ever discussed this with a manager from a book?
Think of all the SBR posters who have disappeared. I imagine some are dead. ( don't forget to leave instructions for your loved ones to spend your points)

A death certificate, proof that you are next of kin should be all that is needed to withdraw the funds. Leaving the details in a will likely expedites the process as well.Comment -
Come on fellas, this is not that hard. You don't leave it in a will and you sure don't tell any bank or sportsbook you are dead NOT until after all the money moves are complete. You never tell the sportsbook squat. Have someone designated to withdraw "as usual" and this matter is resolved.Comment -
Books will pay out with proof of death, and proof that someone is entitled to the money. The trickier part is making sure your family knows about your accounts on your death. You might keep a master list of accounts in a security box at the bank.Originally posted by LouComment -
Too much to ask that you actually read posts before responding to them, clearly.Originally posted by Hareeba!Comment -
The death certificate won't work if you use fake names, beards, remote control, etc. So plan ahead.

Specifying account details and logins etc. in your will surely will result in the need for numerous (costly ?) updates to your will as you change passwords, open new accounts, close old ones etc.
Maintain an up-to-date file of all these details and any specific issues regarding withdrawals from them. Don't forget your e-wallets either.Comment -

Live a healthy life style. Retire from gambling and withdraw your funds from all books while you are still in full possession of your faculties. Enjoy retirement. Travel. Spend your money. Do not leave a problem.Comment -
