    Default Skybook

    They are taking a beating on EOG mainpage and forum

    Anyone have any insight?

    They don't have withdrawal options other than ** and ** and they're charging ridiculous fees.

    To top it off, every time I try to place a decent sized bet, they change the juice from 110 to 115 after I enter my password.

    Every time the Shrink warns someone about a book, i only think to myself: but he likes to have SBG and BetUS as sponsors.

    Didn't Shrink also warn of "Weapons of Mass Destruction" in Iraq?

    He's very reliable.

    Anytime a book makes changes not related to growth people are going to be nervous and rightfully so. Skybook made some moves to get Pinnacle clients and it didn't work as they relied heavily on Neteller. Volume is obvioulsy going to go down. A lot of the books are either focusing on markets like the UK or are taking a wait and see approach.

    What does concern me is how BetMania players are hanging. Skybook has 3 methods of payouts and Mania guys are waiting 10 days for only **********. Places where Skybook advertise are saying that Skybook sold the "Rio Group" brand.

    Right, especially books that have already stiffed posters.

    I read the articles and have heard the rumors of Skybook being unstable so I decided to dramatically reduce my balance. I requested a withdrawal on Monday, was told i'd have the control number on Thursday. I called back on Tuesday and had the control number, and picked up my money Wednesday morning. I don't know if I was lucky or if Skybook is still solid, but with all the book bashing going on, I figured I'd post some positive news. Customer service was great and withdrawal was much faster than expected

    Still floors me to see SBG advertising over there. Especially after that claim that they owned Ken a bunch of money back in the Rx days.
