Default Bet Mania

Won some money in the Beat the prick contest but they won't let me bet with it unless i send them ID. What kind of bullshit is this? I could see MAYBE if i deposited with them so if i withdrew they could verify it down the road but this is nonsense. Nobody else has done this to me in 15 years going offshore. I don't send money offshore unless i check out a book for awhile or get in a post up contest. I won this money so why do they need ID before i wager on money that i won? Why not when i withdraw? This book already has put a bad taste in my mouth. By the way staff at SBR ur contest are far and away hands down the best on any sports site i ever visited. Take a bow.

Meh.

Books can't win with this stuff. People get asked for ID when they withdraw and they start complaining, "If they need it, why didn't they take care of it before I started betting? They are just trying to screw me because I won!"

I have my ID saved on my computer so sending it would take probably a 10th the time it took you to type that post. I would just send it.

I agree that the contests here are great.

I wouldn't know the first thing on how to send my ID over the comp. Again i won the money why they need the ID If it is so important ask me for it when i withdraw.

Its weird why send an ID?
Why did they requested that?
maybe you had an account with them, or some1 using your cmputer made an account with them
and shares the IP
Something is fishy here

I didnt sent it, and they gave me a $55 freeplay for christmas also

they are good people

He probably put fake information and realizes he can't send his ID without losing his winnings.

Fake shit. Here is the scenario sherlock. I won 82 dollars in beat the prick. I go to this book i just recently signed up for. I go to play it and it says my wagering is suspended even tho i never made a wager with them in my life. I couldn't even see how much i won in the Prick contest. I go to their live chat and ask why is my account suspended when i never used it. They said they need ID from me before i could wager. I said why i won the money fair and square. It isn't like im asking for a withdraw. She said they need the ID. I asked could u at least tell me what i won? She said 82 dollars. I told her i would get back to her. In their defense they did save money cause i was putting it all on Carolina money line the rat bastids. I have been with a few books for years and was never asked for an ID to deposit or bet winnings from a contest.
