Default When a book says they use FED EX....

dont you expect it to be anywhere from 1 to 3 days until its at your door? Im currently at a book that uses Fed EX ground which is taking over a week. Basically no different then snail mail. Is this a new trick out there the books are using to pretend they have fast payouts?

I do but it came from the US. It may have been processed from CR but it was sent from the US. The bottom line is they told me 3 to 5 when I signed up but that quickly became 7- 10 when I asked for my money. I even have managers accusing supervisors of lying to me about the time frame. This shop is really sad and unorganized and full of dishonest employees. A sure sign of a place that would stiff a guy who wasnt aware of the forums. I say this because I told them up front that I was forum guy to avoid these problems and yet they are still pullin fast ones on me. I can onl y imagine what they would do to a non forum player/winner!!

At least it came fedex...........Sometimes fedex, or the big name -like, is advertised and then it comes from a carrier you have never heard of. I experienced this with Betus.

In my experiences with Fed Ex I received the check between 2 and 3 business days. This was with Carib and WagerWeb.

Its always 2 to 3 if its Fed ex normal delivery. This scum book is using fed ex ground which is no different than regular mail. False advertisement basically!

I'll take Fedex ground over regular mail anyday. At least you can track its progress and don't have to worry about the mailman stuffing it in a trash can and going for a drink instead.

DHL stands for Day & a half late. Not as good generally as a UPS/Fedex.

Fex ground sometimes it takes forever, always ask them to send Fex priority mail if you can, if they charge you 5 to $10 more, it it worthy.

It depends which option they choose when they send the package. Fedex doesnt just offer 1-3 day priority. They can be cheap and just send it at a cheaper rate through that carrier.

But yes, I would the quicker method.

How do you track the package when the book doesnt have the tracking #? First time I ever played at a book that was unable to give me a tracking #. (SPORTBET)
