Tues, June 24 - talked to Rachel and she said I can get $1,000 via Moneybookers but the processor is down and to call back next Monday

Mon, June 30 - re-requested payout for $1,000 with Eve (General Manager) she said it will take 72 hours

Wed, July 02- talked with Eve and she said she expects the payout to happen today by 4PM

Thur, July 03 - spoke to Eve again and she said Fri by the latest

Tues, July 08- Eve said Moneybooker payouts take 7 -10 business days, 7 days is July 10th, 10 days is July 15th

Thur, July 10th - talked to Eve and she said no payout today because I am not on the payout report

Cant understand the mentality here..Pay the players and flush the toilet, or at least make settlements..50 cents on the dollar and be over with it..with evolution being such a player in the PPH market, eventually it will have to catch up to them..

You need merely extend this chronology back to January--with similar entries to yours for every contact--and you'll have my (still ongoing) experience.

Several payouts went out in early May. At least from what's been posted in the forums a tiny number have trickled out since then. But other than that they've been a deposit-only book since January. Their "F" grade is well-earned.

Thieves and liars, pure and simple.

I had 8000.00 I was looking to WDL. slightly before all the no pays. It was like Mid-Feb. Was getting slow paid on Moneygram payouts. They were allowing me to take out 1500.00 a day and the Control # was supposed the next day. I did one and it wasn't taken out of y balance. Call back next day they said give them one more day. I also initiated another 1500 payout so I had 2 pending. neither were taken out of my balance. They ran me around for a week and you know what happened next. I scalped 3200 into another book and lost about 5000.00 in that 7 day period waiting for those payouts. I feel fortunate to get that 3200.00. i only posted up 300.00 in the lifetime of that acct. That run wasn't even from that 300.00 it was from a Kill Carlo contest i won and then ran my balance up from 250.00(contest winnings) to 2K in like 2 hours playing in the live casino. Place was a joke.

You dodged not just a bullet but machine gun fire Burt. Good for you.

These stiff books start with good intentions. They pay a promoter big money to get a base of players. Even in the real world 9 out of 10 businesses fail in the first two years. For sportsbooks its a tad closer to 10 out of 10.

What adds insult to injury is Lazerwager is not OUT of business, they just changed their business model slightly. They just decided to eliminate payouts and now they can turn a profit. Part II of this is when they will change their name and become a different new book and go back to a forum promoter for another shot.

Report them to moneybookers, also. Moneybookers will suspend their account.

Default that's it. This industry is done.

Is ANY f'n book paying these days? I mean, what is the f'n point of them accepting wagers if they're never going to pay out? This is SO f'd up. I know I read once that gambling takes in more revenue than all other entertainment combined. Or was that just blown out of proportion?

I am totally fed up contacting these people. It is particularly galling to receive an e mail from them 13 weeks after requesting my cashout offering a redeposit and a new player bonus. I wish they would just own up to having no money rather than soliciting business from new players. Grossly unfair and insensitive.

why don't everyone keep calling evolution (evodp.com) to make a complain, lazerwager could be a part of the owner of the evolutions, just keep calling and demand to talk to the manager or the owner until shut down this stupid scammer.
I hate book making big promotions then stiff the funds from players. F*** them.

whatda?!!! you really need to let them know that you are angry so they will do something about your money. do they have terms and conditions on this? it is really important that you know the t&c then go to the next step. this forum can help you what to do next.
