I didn't want to start a whole thread about what kind of book they are, because there has been several on that subject.
But has anyone gotten paid on time? without hassle

I recieved a payment from them about three weeks ago through Neteller. It was requested the day before.

While I don't have any personal problems with Wager Web, I would never try a book just for a bonus. Stick to the "A" books, and you will save yourself a lot of headaches in the long term.

As you know since you are on every WagerWeb thread/report like flies on a diaper bag, one player did get paid. It took about 8 weeks and I saw absolute proof. I said anyone wanting to see the proof could send me a PM.
I could probably get permission to post it on the open forum here if you want. It shows WW not just taking 8 weeks to payout - it shows them lying, stalling, weaseling and being generally all-around crappy. Let me know.
I haven't had an update on the other player for awhile. I'll check and let the forum know.
I don't know what you're getting pissy with me for. I just report the news. People have saved my ass by doing that and I try to do the same. For many of us, it is a main purpose of this kind of forum.
You need to get angry with the people at WagerWeb if negative reports are so upsetting to you.
Here I'll throw you a bone: some players I know have reported getting paid reasonably well from Wager Web in the last few months.
So the conclusion a non-shill would get from that is, if you play at Wager Web, maybe you'll get paid right, maybe you won't.
I say that's bad. Maybe you disagree. But I can't see how it's ever bad to give out the information.

Danger. On top of the slowpays, this brings up another reason to avoid Wager Web.
A tactic they have used for awhile is, if a player takes a bonus, they paint a target on themselves. If their bets go well, WW says it proves they are professional or a bonus abuser - which is against their rules - and confiscates the winnings. Obviously if the player loses his balance, WW is okay with that.
They have also frequently been lowering players limits in the middle of bonus rollovers if they don't like how things are going. Unethical.
But maybe you'll be alright. When SBR gets involved, they are more likely to back down. Some players don't get knicked. Much like the payout situation the conclusion is, maybe you'll be okay, maybe not.
