    Hey HB how long does it takes for their checks to arrive.?

    I have a withdraw pending and I don't know how long I should expect it to take... Also what method do they use to send them...I was charged $50 for the withdraw if that helps...

    Thanks

    Great book if you are stupid enough to lay -110. When you can lay an average of -103 at matchbook.

    i'm shocked bookmaker is an A+ book. to me any book that has 20 cent baseball lines should not get an A or an A+. i got bookmaker rated at A- at best.

    A+ is highly questionable. Why do we rate books so high for just getting paid. Bookmaker is at lest 5-10 days to get paid. That is unacceptable. I never choose checks as a payment option but if I did it would be at a shop that would have check in hand within 72 hours. If they can't get you a ** within 8 hours i won't play there either... Speed is a better test of a BOOK in my opinion.

    Scambook, don't deposit there they are a deposit only book, try Cascade or Betroyal if you want your money to be safe, plus they'll offer you like a 100% reload bonus if you deposit enough

    Yeah broke I think that was funny. To re-instate what I was saying. I believe there are plenty of Books that are safe I can think of 8 that pay faster and are just as safe.

    thet are in my top 4.greek=1 ,5 dimes =2, bet jamacia=3 and bookmaker=4.this books pays,and they are strongly backed money wise.only complaints,are it cost around 65 dollars to withdraw if you use fed ex,which i do.you can use loalty points when you with draw.its cheaper using regular mail,but iam not going that rout.last but not least,it cost a lot to do book,book transfer,i dont go that rout.good luck in chosing a book.

    I agree the usual 5-10 business day waiting period (normally leaning more towards 10 bus. days) and the $50 charge they hit you with for FedEx is ridiculous, also the 5-10 business days is misleading b/c most banks will not cash an international check and will hold it for another 10 business days, so to make a long story short it will take roughly a month from when you request a payout to when you are able to spend the cash and they charge you $50 for the inconvenience.

    This is true, Cascade and Betroyal are actually horrible books and I consider Bookmaker and Matchbook to be tied for #1 as far as US player accepting books go. If you don't use both of these you are clearly insane and ignoring a couple of the best opportunities to win at sports betting.

    Precisely the reason why it's alright to joke, anyone with enough sense to check SBR before signing up with a book is going to have enough sense to avoid Cascade/Betroyal/Lazer Wager/Scambook2000 etc. etc. etc. . The number one starting place is the SBR rating list, every A rated book is a good out (except BetOnline which is run by drug addicts and sends hookers to SBR headquarters daily to keep their A rating)

    Excellent book. Certainly they have flaws, but not getting paid and not taking a fair wager aren't among them.
