Default Oddsmaker new sportsbook from former ownership of BetOnUSA

BetOnUSA sold it’s family of sites to Jazette Enterprises Limited (Sportsbook.com Group) in December of 2006.

Oddsmaker.com sent me a polo shirt and hat out of the blue. Good quality, too. I might actually wear the hat in certain scenarios.

Sportsbook.com does that to regular accts. alot so I am not suprised... They send you good quality stuff and give you money on your birthday... They must be sportsbook.com basically now like maker and cris.. BTW Sportsbook to have a D rating is just misleading... I only talk highly of them because for years they have always treated me good... When they make a wagering mistake they eat it... They have even made mistakes in giving me a win on a wager that lost... I bet my roll before they changed it and they let the bet stand.. I won and only after that did they ONLY TAKE the loss of the previous amount and let me keep the rest...

Oddsmaker.com has nothing to do with sportsbook.com.

I received a thing in the mail from them (as did one of my friends). It gives $100 to start, minimum $1,500 to withdrawl. So your saying I probably won't see the money if I get there huh? I'm at $825 right now, so we'll see if I can get there, and what will happen if I do...

Deep pockets with very short arms. Its free but you will not collect so its worth what it cost you assuming you have some time to kill.

I am having the SAME EXACT problem.. don't know what to make of it. The bank will not give me the physical check back either. They did provide me with a copy taht I have faxed to oddsmaker.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one. Funny, each time i speak to Oddmaker customer service they swear up and down that My issue is an ISOLATED incident. That it has never happened before.

Question: was the check from a bank in Long Beach CA?

only positive thing I've ever seen you write, and it's because you got a free hat from a slow paying book.

The check is issued from XXXXXXX through XXXXXXX. I wonder if I can confirm anything through them? My bank said if they had proof that it was being paid then they could lift the temporary hold, otherwise I will have to wait until 6/18 to see if they pay up.

The biggest bonus in the world is worth nothing if you can't make a withdrawal.

Default stay away from odds(t)aker

Oddsmaker.com changed it rules for Parlay wagers.
The site no longer allows for a Parlay of two or more teams that combine the Favorite with the Over.
The site no longer allows for a Parlay that combine the Underdog with the under.
I am not talking moneyline, I am referring to any game that has a point spread and a over-under line. There is no mention of this change in the Wagering menu on this site.

Also, I have called 4 times over the last two days and they refuse to let me speak to a Manager.

How do I get a refund from my deposit?

What is the status of my withdrawal? I “requested” a withdrawal 8/26/07 using my checking account. Your stated policy is from 48 hours which means I should have gotten my withdrawal by now. I just checked my checking account and you have not made a deposited into my account.

To quote your stated policy:
Time to cashout your winnings! With OddsMaker.com withdrawals can be made 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and all withdrawals are processed within 48 hours.
