Bookmaker Check

bookmaker is strong

No I still have not recieved my wire, they sent me an email on the 20th saying my transaction was processed succesfully. This is the ridiculous part of it. Never had a problem with getting paid with them, but I don't recall ever getting paid in a timely manner. Not to mention, I'm a type of player that likes to parlay about 9-12 teams together, but about 10 of the teams are typically 16 and over spreads up to about 25. I've been having a bit of succes the first 3 weeks. And guess what, now all of a sudden they have decided to only give out moneylines to 21, earlier in the week they had moneylines on Michigan, Tulas and Middle Tenn St. and now they aren't offering it. I'll start off with a 1000 in my account and I'll play these tickets for up to about 3000, and they payout between 2 and 3 to 1. Several years ago with their bet points, I was doing basketball moneylines, and won for about 2 weeks straight, got my account to 20 grand, and they cut me off their bet point program. They are definitelty a sportsbook that has no shame in changing the rules. I will keep everyone posted as to when this bankwire comes in. My guess is its a stall tactic, had I blown the money that I had in my account, maybe they hope I'd cancel the transaction and they can keep their money. It's funny they tell me if I do western union they can get the money to me faster. I just don't understand the logic, either way the money has to come from their bank. Why can they take 2500 and send it moneygram any faster than they can take 2500 or 5000 and just wire it?

Thanks for the response. I have the same situation. I've made a request for 10K on 09/19/2011 and as of today I still have not seen money yet.  They said check back if I won't see money on the next Monday. I'll keep post.

You're welcome, I actually made my request on 09/19/2011 as well. And on the 20th is when I got an email saying it was processed. Did you get an email informing you that it had processed. Which I have no idea what that means. I'm assuming it means it's processed by bookmaker meaning they have officailly acknowldge you want your money, lol. I just made a book to book transfer for 1500, second time I've done that through bookmaker, and it's been put into my account within the hour. Of course they charge me 100 for it. I spoke with one of their sports agents who had contacted me last week when he noticed that i did a book to book transfer to see why I tranferred money to 5dimes. And he told me he was gonna look into it and contact me later today to see where they are on their end. I'm totally not holding my breath for his call back, but like yourself, I'll be waiting til Monday to see i get it. Good luck, I'm fairly confident that we will both get our money, I wouldn't start to worry until it goes past the 15 business days that they have alloted for themselves. but thanks for your feedback as well.

I did not get any email as you did. I asked them should I get one email like a receipt or evidence to show me that I am making a withdrawal but they said we don't send out the email saying that.  When you see money deduct from your account which means that your payout has been in process....

Good news! I just checked my bank and the money was there under pending status but reporting balance included.  Don't know why it showed $60 less while I already paid fee for this withdrawal. My bank said they did not inquire any fee for this wire somehow due to exchanging currency from originator for $60 less.  But that's ok to me. Hope you see your money in your bank as well 

Guys. Your money is safe with bookmaker, and you will get paid. I repeat, you will get paid. Bookmaker has probably one of the top 3 reputations in the world online because of their stability. Just be patient, but your money will arrive.

I once made the mistake of walking into my bank to deposit a Bookmaker check from a US bank. The problem wasn't the check - it was the drones at the bank. I got the same story, and the lady wanted me to wait for her to call the bank manager in Florida.

I noticed that I was also waiting for her to talk to her friend, and after 20 minutes, I was super-pissed, because she was making me late for work. 

I used to date a bank manager. What they don't tell you at the counter is that the bank manager can personally waive almost all holds, unless it's a huge check. (Have requested this on multiple occasions.)

Ever since this experience with my Bookmaker check and the idiot bank employee, I just deposit all my checks in the ATM. The problem is the bank employees, not Bookmaker. Sure enough, the Bookmaker and Bodog checks have all gone through!

Only place that ever bounced a check with me was Full Tilt Poker, lol. I wonder how that could've happened?

so with bookmaker, is wu faster then debit card withdrawals?

I just request payout by WU on 10AM EST, and around 3PM EST I got control number. That is fantastic.
