Default to withdrawl money from THE GREEK

I joined in 2007 and have a small balance there and wanted to reup today. I asked about their withdrawl policy and they said to withdrawl any money they would need a utility bill and a drivers license. Is that normal policy from them. I don't remember doing that last time I withdrew but my memory is pretty bad.

Asking for a utility bill is new for them. Drivers license requirement has been in place for years. I was paid by check within 1 day. Very impressive. The Greek is a legit A+

Thanks, Chuck, I joined way back and then rejoined in 2007 thru 2008, never had a problem with them in the years I played there.

Disagree, I looks 'classic'......no flash to mug my computer down. Newer isn't always better.

I like the greek site, it's quick and everything is pretty easy to find. Speed is often of the essence, and being able to lock in your bet for 1 minute before actually having to confirm it is super valuable.

Be careful. There is pretty good evidence that this info is being sold to other sportsbbooks. (See a recent heritage post). Do you really want a scan of your DL and utility bill being sold and spread all over the web? If that doesn't bother you, then by all means go with the greek.

There are plenty of books that will work with you that don't require this, but you have do to it upon setup and before deposit.

Never had to produce those documents myself at the time of withdrawal, but likely because I use MoneyBookers. I'm fairly certain My ID is on file with them, but it's been nearly a decade since I joined their site so can't say with complete certainty.

When I started playing at multiple books ... I figured it was worth the $12 or $14 for a monthly credit monitoring service. Just the cost of doing business.

I've never heard of a utility bill being requested but driver's license/ID has almost always been required in my experiences.
