    I emailed my decision to Tony. Now we wait. I chose to cancel all correlated ifs.

      At this point my account was reset to 300 which the note says was my balance before the first RIF was made. A far stretch from 950. Trying to get somebody to talk to me about it on the phone. Keep yall posted.

        The WILL NOT FOR ANY REASON allow you to speak to Becky or Tony on the phone. Live chat is the only option. Anybody know why they are too important to speak to you about the money you deposit into their book?

            tony has never talked on the phone at least from my experiences.


            he sounds much tougher on chat.

              Trying to get one of them on live chat now to ask why they reset me to 300 instead of letting me take the offer Tony made.

                OK so I got Tony on live chat and told him Becky placed my balance at 300 and he said it was my balance before the correlated RIF wagers. He said after she did the math I kept ending up negative so he gave me the 300. I didnt agree with the math so we went over the plays 1 at a time. 434 wagers. I ended up right and got 700 instead of 300 and he gave me LIFETIME DOUBLE BONUSES and any other reward option they have FOR LIFE. He made up for all this I would say. He did offer to let me keep the 250 instead and all go back to normal but after he convinced me the other deal was better I took it. I just felt like lifetime double bonuses on losses v/s cash in my account is like saying in advance I am gonna lose. But at the end of the day we all know we gotta lose sometime. If you read the chat you will enjoy some of our talk. Tony stayed cool and I did too. I kissed a little but a few times but after all I did break a rule but did so UNKNOWINGLY. Read the chat log and enjoy. Tony is not always an ass. He was very fair in my case I think. Glad I stayed cool because I was pissed yesterday. At least I got my 700 instead of the 300 Becky put in my account. It all worked out and I absolutely reccomend this book to anybody.

                Luigi: Hello. How may I assist you today?
                steve: I was told to contact Becky
                steve: xxxxxxxxxx
                Luigi: Let me check if she is available
                Luigi: My apologies but the operations manager is not online anymore.
                steve: OK I can also deal with Tony. He also knows what is going on. They said to contact either one.
                Luigi: Ok
                Luigi: I am checking with him please bare with me
                steve: ok great.
                Please wait while I transfer the chat to 'Tony'.
                You are now chatting with 'Tony'
                Tony: greetings
                Tony: becky was going over your account
                Tony: i'll have to review what she did with it
                Tony: give me a moment please
                steve: Hey Tony I tried since we talked last night to get back with you
                steve: ok
                Tony: well, i do sleep
                Tony: so that has to happen sometime
                steve: It seems she reset it to 300 instead of letting me accept the offer you gave me.
                Tony: well, you were zero
                Tony: then she and i went over it this morning
                steve: i know youre a busy guy and almost every player wants to talk to you
                Tony: and checked all the net deposits and payouts since you started making these plays
                Tony: it was determined that no matter how we added you up
                Tony: with voiding correlated plays
                Tony: or voiding the correlated and the original
                Tony: nothing would get you positive
                Tony: but before you started making all these plays, you made a $300 deposit
                Tony: and your payouts exceeded your deposits by $150
                steve: I must be really adding wrong because most of the plays I found were losses or no action
                Tony: but you paid about $150 in fees for those payouts
                Tony: then you really are adding wrong
                Tony: i'll just give you why we came up with the number we did
                Tony: then we'll start adding
                steve: ok cool
                Tony: so if you had never found any of these correlated plays, and we look at all your other play, you lost
                Tony: so we're going to wipe absolutely everything
                Tony: as there's no way to find a block of wagers that were winners
                Tony: and reset you to where you were when you deposited
                Tony: as since that deposit, the payouts and deposits are almost identical
                Tony: so
                Tony: next thing we need to go is go thru why you end up negative on all the plays
                steve: The biggest reason this happened is because when i wager from a smart phone you cant see all the teams on the plays you have to choose from
                Tony: would you like to start from the oldest play or the newest play?
                steve: and because i didnt know it was against the rules. i just let the system be the boss because yall have more wagering options than anywhere on the planet.
                steve: the oldest is good
                Tony: well, in this case, the system had an error in it
                Tony: ok, oldest play
                Tony: if i'm not mistaken its from 8/25
                steve: yes
                Tony: teaser with balitmore ravens
                Tony: to the ravens in the 2nd half
                Tony: you were +59.52 on that one
                Tony: and the subsequent RIF would have action, as it is if win or push
                Tony: of course we can do this two different ways
                steve: right
                Tony: as we can also void anything correlated (the original wager and the correlated)
                Tony: for our purposes, we'll void only the correlated on this run
                steve: ok
                Tony: and if that gets into the negative, we'll start again with voiding everything
                Tony: so i'll be numbering these with a running tab of wins and losses
                Tony: 1) +59.52
                steve: gotcha
                Tony: going thru them to find the next one
                steve: me too
                Tony: let me know if you find one before i do
                Tony: 8/27
                Tony: seattle denver over 27 in a teaser
                Tony: to seattle denver over 16.5 in 2nd half
                Tony: won $45.45
                Tony: 1) +59.25 /// 2) +45.45
                steve: Is that really correlated because you can win one but lose the other
                Tony: if you bet over
                Tony: and you correlate it to over
                Tony: and it is 100% correlated
                steve: ok
                steve: the next i think is on 9/5
                Tony: working my way there
                steve: 46.34 win on maryland 1st half off of maryland for the game in a parlay
                steve: is that correlated even though other teams are in the parlay?
                Tony: yes it is
                Tony: i just haven't gotten there yet
                Tony: 1 day away
                steve: ok sorry
                steve: Tony I am a good customer who is a lifetime loser. You gotta know I didnt do this on purpose or I would have racked up right?
                Tony: marland 1st half correlated to maryland for the game
                steve: yes thats it
                Tony: and maryland 2nd half correlates to maryland game
                Tony: 1) +59.25 /// 2) +45.45 /// 3) +66.69
                Tony: yes, but on purpose or not, these are getting voided
                steve: even though other teams have to win on the parlay
                Tony: the parlay is a winner
                Tony: you get the $201.46
                Tony: you just don't get the attached plays as action
                Tony: as they are correlated
                Tony: you get to keep the original plays
                Tony: if that works out better for you
                Tony: all i'm concerned with is the correlated plays
                steve: correct
                Tony: then if it works better for you to void the correlated plays and the original plays, then you can do that as well
                Tony: and if it works better to start with $300, we'll do that
                steve: gotcha
                Tony: as that would be voiding absolutely everything, correlated or not
                Tony: all these options, you get the one that works best for you
                steve: 9/8 is the next on saints
                steve: 79.05
                Tony: yes
                Tony: got it
                Tony: caught up
                Tony: 1) +59.25 /// 2) +45.45 /// 3) +66.69 /// 4) +79.05
                steve: saints 2nd half off of saints in a teaser. Saints were losing at the half so I was just betting more on them effectively
                Tony: but if one specific one of the two wins, the other one cannot lose
                Tony: that is what makes it correlated
                steve: you can see i made that bet off every play i had pending because you cant see the pending teams when wagering on your smart phone
                Tony: we'll go over the exact issue there on the smart phone
                steve: i chose every play it listed because i couldnt read them to see which was gonna be a winner
                steve: ok cool
                Tony: and i'll work on a design for you specifically where that issues is corrected
                Tony: for now, we're just adding up plays
                Tony: working on finding the next one now
                steve: me too
                steve: didnt happen alot just when i used the phone i will bet
                steve: Thats all i found and no more pages to check
                steve: so that is roughly 250
                Tony: ok, i'm continuing
                steve: I can live with giving back the 250 but its hard to give up 600
                Tony: understood, and i agree
                Tony: so when we get done checking
                Tony: we'll go over all the options
                Tony: let me just make sure there are no more
                steve: ok no problem and thanks for being fair about this
                Tony: least i can do for a software error on our end
                Tony: $250.44
                steve: yes thats what i have too
                Tony: ok
                Tony: now the options
                steve: i will eat the 250
                Tony: you might not
                Tony: as these are some pretty good chocies
                Tony: *choices
                Tony: but we'll see
                Tony: 1) I forget then entire thing, the deduction is eliminated (you remain on the "cash back program")
                Tony: 2) The deduction of $250.44 is enforced, you are given the opportunity for "lifetime" to have two rewards options. That would be any of the following: "Free play awards & Cash Back" OR "30% super saver & Cash Back" OR "Doubled Cash Back"
                Tony: or any other combo of two 5Dimes rewards programs
                steve: option 1 i get my 650 back and all goes back to normal right?
                steve: what id doubled cash back?
                Tony: on 9/13 you had an available balance of $950
                Tony: you had a total of $650 taken away
                Tony: that $650 would be returned
                Tony: in doing that, you only have "standard cash back program"
                Tony: as that in effect would be honoring all plays, even correlated ones
                steve: that is perfect and I apologize for making the mistake.
                Tony: not sure about your question regarding "double cash back"
                steve: I will be more careful and wont bet rolling ifs on teams that are in the same state.
                steve: option 1 is great for me because i usually bet with my money and not bonus cash because of the 30 day hold
                Tony: there is no 30 day hold on cash back awards
                Tony: its your cash
                Tony: you can do with it what you want
                steve: i mean on free play bonuses
                Tony: i can make the free play awards have no restrictions
                Tony: including no rollover, and well as no 30 day rule
                Tony: so they would be made available immediately on qualifying deposits
                steve: option 1 is still the best for me i think
                Tony: i completely disagree
                Tony: but its your choice
                Tony: as i don't give double bonuses all that often
                Tony: as one is $250.44
                Tony: the other are award options for life
                Tony: but we'll go with whichever one you want
                steve: just 1 question, how did Becky come up with the negative number today and my balance become 300
                Tony: i came up with $300
                Tony: as that amount is what you deposited before all this started
                steve: oh ok i was just wondering
                Tony: as for your account being negative, i don't know, she isn't here
                Tony: but she was told that if i was not available, she was to go thru every single play with you, one by one
                steve: its ok we worked it out and both of us are happy
                Tony: so you really want the $250.44 rather than double rewards for life?
                steve: and i still have my account at your book. Yall have 10x more wagering options than any other book which is why i play there
                steve: can i sleep on it and email you
                Tony: i'm going to put you on double rewards for life
                Tony: if you change your mind in the next 24 hours, you contact us, and the adjustment will be made
                steve: OK thanks again Tony.
                Tony: then you'll be on standard rules cash back, and $250.44 will be applied to your account
                Tony: also, you've got that same 24 hours to choose the two plans you want
                Tony: for now you'll be on double cash back
                Tony: so if a cash back award is 15%
                Tony: you will get 30%
                steve: So the other 400 will go back in tonight?
                Tony: any amount will be doubled
                Tony: as soon as we conclude the chat, the adjustment will be made on the remaining funds
                steve: Thats probably the best choice. Double rewards for life is great but its like admitting to myself i am gonna lose at some point
                steve: we all lose at some point
                Tony: well, then you need to read over the "30% super saver"
                Tony: as a lot of customers really like that one
                steve: Ok great. Glad this is all worked out.
                Tony: as it was designed for parlay and RIF players
                Tony: your credit has been applied
                steve: I will read it after dinner
                Tony: if i were you, i'd probably choose that one to add
                Tony: as better prices always give you a better chance to win
                steve: Thanks for being fair. Alot of guys bash you but I have always found you to be fair.
                Tony: and all those better prices apply on parlay payouts, and work in RIF plays
                Tony: i'm an asshole
                Tony: but i like to think i'm a fair asshole
                steve: I am too
                steve: both
                Tony: in my opinion, not a bad thing to be
                steve: Talk to you again later. Tell Becky thanks for her time too
                Tony: as i'm not out to win any popularity contests
                steve: goodnight to you
                Tony: not a problem
                Tony: good night
                Tony: i'll be around until the LSU game ends tonight
                Tony: becky is off tomorrow
                Tony: i'll be back in the office around 7pm tomorrow for the college football
                Tony: eastern
                steve: ok thanks man

                      Can you post your CC # and SS # too? Seriously, you're asking for problems. Suggest you change your pw pronto.

                        I did block it out when I first posted it but internet went down again so I had to paste it over again and didnt the 2nd time. Second time in 2 days that happened.

                        On another note glad it all worked out and I got my money back.

                              Nice to see a situation resolved amicably; that is overwhelmingly my experience offshore but it often seems that only the contentious/aggressive ones get reported here.

                                Still a massive pain in the butt for an innocent customer.

                                  But he made it up to me after he actually viewed all the wagers and saw I was right and I got my cash refunded.

                                    Yeah, good you got a decent result BTH. But rather than praising Tony for his ulturism I'd be looking at how he acted off the bat. He knew HE had fvcked up and was always going to do this before you even said a word... but still he tried to keep talking at you like you were the one taking a shot at him.

                                    And then HE cocked up again and could not even calculate his own "good offer" correctly. Making you go through all that effort twice to explain the correct result.

                                    Most people would not have got their money here.

                                    Just calling it a massive pain in the ass is being kind toward 5 Dimes imho. And quite frankly this saga has decreased my faith in Tony to do the right thing more than threads where he refuses to pay people or gives them the leave or shut up choice.

                                    It's one thing drilling a customer who has obviously tried to take advantage, but this just looked like he was trying hard to make an innocent customer jump through hoops unfairly.

                                      At one time Tony was more than happy to chew your ass out over the phone but you are correct that he only uses Live chat now. Bubba is probably right that it is for documentation purposes. Also it allows Tony to be anywhere in the world and they are able to transfer the chats to him. I know one time I needed to chat and he was in Europe and they transferred it over. He was more than happy to tell me about it.

                                          I had 4 plays over a month or so that were in question for a total of 250 and the most blatant example was 2nd half Saints rolled from Saints +14 in a teaser and they were rolling at the half so I could have very easily lost the second half bet.

                                            I understand. I was trying to play it cool so I didnt lose my account or my money for something I didnt mean to do. The worst thing about the whole thing is that my balance was confiscated after assuming I did it and had more wins than the 950 balance. I told him I had different figures than Becky and he immediately said I was wrong but after we went through it all I WAS RIGHT. That is why he gave me the concessions he did. Glad I was able to prove my case and get my money back.

                                            Also sorry I am late answering these. I left Friday for Oklahoma at FSU,and then went to Mets at Braves,and then saw Eagles at Falcons. Great weekend for sports. I needed it bad.

If the book thinks a wager is correlated they should not accept it so they need to fix their software.
                                              No one in their right mind thinks Cory used a bot, and he'd already fulfilled the rollover many times over so a bot wouldn't even help him "abuse the bonus offer."

                                                  I think the same but Tony made it all OK and gave my money back. I have since taken 2 withdrawls for double the amount.
