check sportsbookreview.com , but the best are probably Pinnacle for non-US customers, followed by BetJamaica, 5dimes, maybe Diamond Sportsbook? Bookmaker is just behind but they have a nice, easy to use site and my favorite of all for simplicity and trustworthiness is VIP.com ... they don't offer all the special stuff but they are very helpful, quick payouts, easiest deposits, great rewards system, and easy to use.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. I would move to another book, but you will get your money from sportsbook...eventually |

You will be a good barometer to see if they use the same outfit. When you withdrew out was there a message on the timetable? |

#15 Posted: 7/8/2008 4:48:17 PM When Neteller was around I didn't have any problems withdrawing or depositing w/Sportsbook it was very prompt. However, since Neteller stopped being an option, withdrawing hasn't been easy. I withdrew $1300 back in July of '07 but hadn't received it after a month. They gave me some run-around and actually ended up putting the money back in my account so I had to re-withdraw it. All in all, it took over three months for me to get my $1300.
I actually withdrew $500 this past Thursday. They sent me a receipt, via e-mail, stating that I should have my check within two weeks - we'll see. I hope the check doesn't bounce, although I wouldn't be the least bit surprised. Not sure why I'm still w/that book. |

Two to three weeks.
Doesn't that sound a bit familiar  |

#20 Posted: 7/8/2008 5:16:25 PM That is insane! We will now soon see a post from mikelogans aka alexc@sportsbook.com telling us they have run into a slight bump in the road but you can rest assured you will be paid. This is more fun that watching a nine inning game.
When you go to the Logans login page they let you email them with wager ideas and they allege they will create a wager for you. Let's go in and say we would like to bet who pays 1st them or sportsbook.com if someone withdraws on the same day from both at the exact same time. They would be able to see how the action is then bag the bet by sending one over the other.  |

That sure is interesting. I imagine we may hear that's because they use the same software.
I would like to see that Logan's guy now. But the important thing is getting everyone paid at Sportsbook.
If you have a bounced check, click on the contact us link at the bottom of the page to get in touch with Covers. They may be able to help out.
The CEO himself here said he had confidence in them that's why they are ranked number 4 by Covers.
Get in touch and see what happens.
Hell, whatcha' got to lose
