Also, I was just informed that they doubled their processing time. Trying to buy time...

I'm done with SPortsbook.com I'm assuming at this point management is picking and choosing who to pay. I'm sure some accounts, like mine, who have been flagged as bonus whores, were getting piad slower than others. I truly believe that fact that I got a check last month was a total fluke. I'm still shocked that I got it.

Back in APril they were saying that they believed by the end of April everything would be back to normal. I think its now clear that payouts will never get back to normal. They've already done a superb job in training thier staff to lie all day long. It just wouldn't suprise me if one day they just shut down and stiff everyone.

Even if you aren't worried about them shutting down, it's just not worth playing there. Before when they gave a 5% bonus, and 4 free withdrawals a month for an unlimited amount, life was great. Now the are charging $40 per withdrawal, with a max of $2500, and you have to wait a month to get it.

If youa re playing there for the poker, just sign up at cake poker.

I'm waiting on a couple of checks from them from early June too and their CS tonight told me that they had not been processed yet but will be soon and he made it a point to tell me I will get my money no doubts it's just a time issue.. Well I know this but like the above post said ...it's not worth playing there until they get things fixed... I can wait three weeks but much more is a pain... So far being paitient...

I agree with those he say do not play with this book. The only way I would ever contemplate sending them anymore of my monies would be if they had a year or more of business practices which mirrored what they had in early to mid 2006. This backlog of checks 2500 or less makes logical sense. There is only one way to get our funds out. It was only a matter of time before this only method would become backlogged. We will just have to be patient and hope they don't go under before we all get it out. These bettors who are infusing monies as we speak are the ones who may lose out all together. They will most likely be at the very end of the line. In my view, it's ignorant to send them funds when their future is questionable.

I'd consider yourself very lucky if you receive your check in three weeks. I've been waiting for a month and have yet to have it processed. And I made my withdrawal before they lost their wire processor.

Just like IneedMymoney, I have been waiting since Feb. You guys making comments here that you have been waiting since June is a joke.

Sorry to sound sour grapes but I think it is understandable.

What do you want? A prize? Sympathy? Please. We're all in the same boat together. Yeah it's unfortunate that you've been waiting so long. It's also unfortunate that all of us have to wait and wonder. But its absolutely ridiculous that you would criticize others for voicing their concerns on here. Why don't you focus your anger on the responsible party rather than those posting here? It would make a hell of a lot more sense.

Mellow out folks. Yes my first withdraw was in Feb. Get the money back in your account and pull it out 2500 at a time, and quit arguing. We're supposed to be on this site to help one another. I've been slowly getting mine since I requested 2500 at a time. Try to relax and wait. I haven't bitched to them in 3 weeks and I've gotten 7500 out of them in this time frame. It may work for the rest of you.

Well good luck to you jpot and f*** me. I have not bitch to them at all since Feb to May not even a live chat. God knows how many times I have cancelled mind and requested BW, checkes then BW then checks as they told me to and yet not 1 cent. Yet so many here already gotten their funds be it 2.5k or 25k. Put yourself in my shoes when I come on here hearing people go on and on about their withdrawal last week or last month. I have not pointed to anyone just bitching so you tell ... to back off.

The point is that you are "bitching" at the wrong people. End of story.
