    I thought they are part of a company that owns ground casinos in Costa Rica.

    So how is it those can operate normally while jazz can't?

    Jazz has been going downhill ever since Alex Powers took over there. Then he ran for the hills and opened up a new shop (EZstreet) and Jazz has been left suffering and unable to get on track ever since. My guess is they are pretty much done.

    I concur with your sentiments in regards to Jazz (SBR Rated D+), Slash. Those gentlemen there always treated me right over the years and I truly hate to hear that they're in this type of rough shape these days.

    Hmmm...I wonder who was reponsible for Jazz's demise.

    This is amazing. I mean they say no payouts until September and then September comes and no payouts still?

    Tough to do with $250 limits and 30 sec delay.

    I think ABC is down to just P2P as far as payouts go.

    If by down to you mean unable to send any for 3 months, then yes.

    How do you control if you win or loose the Jazz side of the bets? I'd like to know that

    Oh I wasn´t arbing (trying to arb your balance out of a no pay book is just gambling on the other side). I just happened to lose.

    I have no idea who they choose to pay or why. I've been steadily drawing down 22k since the last Super Bowl. It's slow and expensive, but given what I've read here, I have no reason to complain. I'll be glad when I zero-out too.

    They refuse to send me P2P.

    Harvey: "I don't want to insult you with small payouts."

    Me: "$0 is a smaller amount than $800."

    Harvey: "Call me next Tuesday, I will [insert bullsh t lie] ... "

    p2p is now down to $500 there, with fees ranging from $49-$69, depending on the method.

    i got steady payouts from jan-may. a couple of $500 p2p per week. could have gotten more if i had put more effort in.

    since may though they have been unable or unwilling to send me even one. i was not very persistent in my efforts though. not relevant anymore as I now i have no balance.

    JazzSports payout troubles

    JazzSports (SBR rating D) users report being owed $206,255. On August 4th, 2011, SportsbookReview reported that the slow-pay sportsbook told players that payments would be made during the beginning of the football season. To date, none of the players have confirmed payment. One of the players who is owed more than $100,000 posted today on SBRforum indicating that he has not received payment from JazzSports in over six months. The player also pointed out that he has been limited to $250 maximum wagers and placed on a 30-second delay at the sportsbook.

    JazzSports, which also operates LooseLines and ABCIslands has been lowered from a sportsbook rating of D+ to D. SBR will update this report as players confirm payment or as more information becomes available.

    I guess some fool deposited $500. You should ask for their contact info and send a thank you card.

    They won't even let me bet with my play money balance anymore. 30 second delay after which they change the price on me 95% of the time. I've even tried betting the "wrong" side and they still do it. This is some Bet Us style bullshit.

    They were a solid Book not that long ago, and an SBR sponsor as early as last season if I rememeber correctly. It's incredible how quickly things can change. To be honest, I don't see them around next year. Glad you're out, but I still have 6k left of what was once a 22k balance. Wish me luck, as I do everyone else in this sinking boat.
