Before anybody says it because I know it's coming, no I'm not a schill for BOL.
Like many of you I requested a moneybookers withdrawal through BOL around the start of May for a significant amount ($6,000 or so) and it did not go well. Broken promises of when it would come and just a general runaround for 3-4 weeks is what happed. I hit a big futures bet (Devils to win the east) and my balance was $14k or so. Then I contacted Stephen on here (the Betonline rep in some of the threads) and dealt as calmly as I could with the live chat reps (which really wasn't that could) and finally accepted moneybookers withdrawals through BOL was hopeless.
What BOL did was pretty solid. They were very apologetic which mean nothing except they gave the first $2,500 via ** fee free which I got within days. I then requested $2,500 via Xpress cheque and $8,000 via bank draft exactly one week ago today. The cheque arrived today and the bank draft also hit my account today.
What they are saying and not saying about moneybookers withdrawals is VERY confusing. If they are having that much trouble with moneybookers, why not remove it as a withdrawal option or at least post on the website they are having trouble? All that said, I took them at their word about their moneybookers, tried some other methods and got my money in less time than the time limits posted on the site.
I'm not a big poster but I thought this was worth sharing. My advise for all those waiting for a moneybookers withdrawal? Cancel it, see what they'll do for you with respect to fees for another method and make the best of it.
