Bookmaker Free Payouts Gone?

[All Day 8]

Apparently they got rid of free payouts via check on Jan 1st...Doesn't make sense if I had money in/was a member before then especially for 2 + years that it wouldn't continue nor was I given a heads up via this. I don't gamble with a lot of money and if I try to take out 300 bucks they are charging 65 bucks and even if I only wanna withdrawal 100 its 65. Thats a large chunk if you ask me for something that used to be free once every 30 days.

Anyone have any suggestions?

those fees are outrageous!!

my suggestion would be to go to a book that has 1 free payout a month AND cheapier fees...those fees are HIGH

not hard to find either, as most good shops have 1 free withdrawl every 30 days

They still have a free withdrawal method. You must have made two other withdrawals previously, in order for your account to qualify for this method. Call them up and ask them.

they have a free DebtCard method now, kind of a pain you have to fill out a form and send in some other stuff

[CityCowboy]

it might not be free but it gets to you

That method is not recommended for such small amounts.
My suggestion is for you to ask them which method is recommended for amounts of $100. They do have other options.

That check method might not be free; But it gets to you.
Unlike other places that offer it for free and cant get it sent to you on time.

That method was also changed as of the 1st of the year and comes with a $20 withdrawal fee.

Without question, the fees to withdraw money from bookmaker are high (especially if you are a lower limit bettor).

Bookmaker is designed for the higher limit bettor and doesn't kick out or limit anyone for any reason.

If you are a lower limit bettor (average bet size $100 on down), then Bookmaker really isn't for you and I would stick with recreational books like 5Dimes and BoDog.

Ya, I called today and asked about the DC...they said it wouldn't be the best method for me because there is a 5 dollar monthly charge so if u spend the money on the card it starts going negative which I don't know what would happen then...

You get one free a month via that method and then any additional are $20.

The form is easy as hell to fill out. People on here complain about anything.

Can anyone confirm this? I would think if you withdraw all the $ from the card(leaving a 0 balance) then you wouldn't be charged a monthly fee....

[tgoodm1]

Any Updates???

Any more info on this DC out there?

Monthly fees??? They can't be serious.

I would like to know if the DC is from a particular bank or if it just has ********** on it.

You guys really should be asking BM about this method, not discussing it on a public forum.

[forsquirrels]

I thought that you could still get a free check withdrawal up to $3000 for 13,000 BetPoints or is this not available anymore?

Wouldn't know, was banned from betpoints ages ago. If you still get betpoints, you tell us. Or just ask BM.

[The Sensei]

wouldn't you be able to just go to an atm and widthraw all the money on the DC you receive?

Why would they ban you from getting betpoints?

Why would they ban you from getting betpoints?

For being a non-recreational player (i.e. having a clue).

The card has inactivity fee after the third month, for $10. Yet it still remains the best method to withdraw your cash. You simply leave the $10 cancellation fee in your account, and take all else free to the card.

No sweat.
