    Default All Hollywood withdraws will be denied until further notice

    Had a withdraw request through Neteller that was "Declined" late last night, which was put through about Noon (Eastern Time) on Wednesday.

    I called CS and they stated that the Book will only process deposits and bets until further notice. No time frame was given as to when withdraws will be processed.

    I will be calling Victor later this morning to find out what is going on.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't 'anger' follow denial?

    Ourbet,

    It is funny that you ask that and reminds me of an experience in Thailand about 8 years ago that really puts things in perspective--and not getting angry over the small stuff.

    To make a long story short, I was vacationing in Bangkok and went to Phuket for a day. I was having a great conversation with the locals in downtown Phuket at the end of the day and thought the airport was only 20 minutes away--it was much more than that. Well, first, I told the cab driver I was "in a hurry"--and it was one of the most heart stopping rides I ever had. Second, I missed the last flight going out of Phuket that day--and I did not intend to stay overnight. Third, I did not have my passport as it was in a safe in a hotel in Bangkok--and foreigners need passports to book a room in Thailand. Fourth, all of the ATM machines were out of cash at the Phuket airport and I needed to convince the cab driver to take me from the airport to a hotel without cash and have the hotel pay the cab fare. Fifth, I had a flight out of Bangkok at 11:00 am the next day, so I had to reschedule that flight using pay phones in Thailand. Sixth, the hotel clerk spoke very little English and told her the story I just had about 5 times to her. And she kept saying "passport please" with a smile on her face. I had visions of sleeping in the jungle that night. I did not get "angry" after explaining this story for about 10 minutes because that would have been sacrilege in a Buddhist country. I turned out fine as the hotel manager spoke excellent English and flew out of Phuket on the first flight the next morning.


    Gotta go.

    Damn, I read that thinking it was going to be an anecdote of an experience with a ladyboy.

    Thanks for the great anecdote BSTPNM68. Yeah, living in Thailand certainly has its moments; not least that gambling is illegal here. Thank Gawd for VPNs (that’s what I say) otherwise I’d be in schtook (or teaching English – heaven forbid)!

    Attn. Hollywood Players waiting for Netellers


    The World Gaming system is requiring verification before processing payouts. I'm told the first batch of payouts will leave 2PM EST tomorrow.

    If you are waiting for a Neteller withdrawal you can help cut your wait time by making the minimum depsosit, which will effectively send your info from Neteller to the book, validating your ID. Hollywood's new Neteller code is SUPE3111.

    Players who just wait for their money might be looking at another 48 hours from now while the databases are matched manually.

    The way of making a small deposit and withdrawing through Neteller with the SUPE3111 merchant code was ineffective for me. In fact, today I tried it 2 times within one hour and it got "Declined" almost immediately.

    I am now waiting how effective the withdrawl through the web page is. The withdrawl is going to Neteller. I did 1.5 hours ago and it has not been rejected--yet.

    Yeah, me too. Though i am not too sure the real story didnt .... if you know what i mean. (Bit "convenient" the hotel "manager" with "excellent" English making "everything" good).

    And I "must" stop "doing" this.

    Yeah, I bet that there was a "happy ending" somewhere in that story.

    Yes, some kind of "ending" anyway ... presumably "happy".

    Yes, it was hard to spot. The fact that I specifically highlighted the punchline in speechmarks must have confused you.

    Well it was!! I thought the "highlighted" parts in "punctuation" was the joke. I assumed the words were just the usual filler.

    Is it too late now to say ... I am sure he was "well satisfied" by the "efforts" of the hotel manager to "accomodate" him? Or am i really just relying on the punctuation to carry off a very weak play on words again?
