    Default 5Dimes Changes Bonus Program

    I haven't seen this posted, but 5Dimes has gone back to their old bonus program. Players must now meet the rollover requirement BEFORE being credited with any bonus. This is essentially a loyalty program and has much less value to players than what they were offering.

    in fact that nobody really understands their bonusprogramm, I guess its ok.

    also nobody understands their withdrawal fees

    Withdrawals via Moneybookers are processed free of charge once per 30 days if requested on Mondays between 9:00 AM ET and 1:00 PM ET.

    thats exactly what I do, but they charged me 15$ for the moneybookers withdrawal

    I love them

    yes, i noticed that about 14 days ago...
    I was on chat and asked if i qualify for reload bonus, they said me yes.... i asked to wait few seconds before i do deposit and i asked if they give me the bonus immediatelly after that... they said me "yes"... i have done deposit and the person there said me, "sorry, we changed bonus rules, you will get the bonus after you wager 12500"
    i rather went off, they are solid A LOL

    I guess as long as they pay SBR solidly, they are solid A

    another question.... why 12500?

    12500=5x2500, 2500 was deposit, 500 is demanded freeplay

    That's the first thing anyone will tell you about 5Dimes is that they are not a bonus book. They never have been, and they never will be. I think Tony's customer service skills can often be severely lacking, but at least they are upfront about not being a book for bonuses and most importantly they do pay.

    they often have brilliant soccer lines at weekends.

    but often limited to 100 - 250$

    In a worse case, you have to place 125 bets to get the bonus

    I would rank 5Dimes in my top five overall books, and probably #1 for overall bet selections. It is, however, extremely difficult to get down sizeable action there. I was only able to get down two dimes on the Dallas 2nd half line yesterday, but that was a blessing in disguise as I found out about two minutes into the 3rd quarter

    So I assume that if you lose your deposit before you roll over 5x that you are SOL in regards to getting the bonus? Is that correct?

    You are also out of luck if you win too much in those first few bets. Just think how tough it is to roll over towards your "reward" with a $50 max bet and a 10 second delay.

    This book was never a powerhouse. They got lot of credit for offering origional odds on some events. But now that books are dropping like flies, they have moved up to one of the better books, assuming you don't play too big.

    5 Dimes is a good book but they don't offer much in the way of bonuses.

    Not only has the good bonus dried up, but they must have hired more people to report winners. I follow these guys at several places and came across a post touting a new record for delay and pettiness. A player was put on delay after 12 bets. Approximately 8 bets later they were told "no more reduced juice". You guys who keep saying what a great place this is..... No offense, but you are either big net losers or you are betting $50 per game. Otherwise, you would be shown the door. Has it finally come down to any book who actually pays out is a good book--no matter what their limits and CS?

    I don't mean offense to others on this board--but i can't think of a single book worse than 5Dimes is to winning players.
