Default I was stupid

I should have known better .. I was warned about playing with a D book. Thats it from now on it going to be 3 books, Bookmaker,Greek, Betjam ..no bonuses accepted, only A+ books . I lost my ass with BJO... I guess I expected problems but just having them turn off the lights I didn;t expect that.
It does not feel good, should just give all this up.

I had to read that twice. Thought it said sorry to hear of your "lost eyeball".

Agreed - hate it when anyone loses like this. Also a chance to say thanks to SBR for they do in rating all these places to help us navigate the swamp.

I knew they were a D book, I gambled with them and hopefully my cheque cashes. For what's in my account I can kiss that goodbye. I really didn't expect this but new books are a gamble and you got to get in and get out. Hopefully I got out.

Many books start at D and work there way up. Yes, it is a calculated risk, but many of us had money in an SBR A book also and got beat (Cascade). This is not an exact science and not for the faint of heart.

Lets give Charlie a small window of opportunity here to make good for her client list.

Hope that check clears 24/7.

I'm hoping that Charlie told 24/7 the truth about that check being a cashiers check. If so then he escaped the brutal free fall everyone is enduring right now.

Here's to keeping my fingers crossed. I still had money in the account but it was minor compared to the value of the withdrawal. The bank put a hold on the cheque until april 9, so I guess by then I'll know.

Geez, why so long? That is over 3 weeks for a check to clear.
