Lets hear about the really bad ones we were dumb enough to send money too.
I'll start off. I really have 2.
1) WorldWager- Horrible. Thank God I didnt win there. I deposited $500 I think and lost it. Deposited another $500 and had it up to about $1000. Tried to withdraw $500. Took them about 45 days to pay me. I was lucky, they have these forums there which were filled with people complaining about horrific slow bordering on no pays. Right at their own site, thread after thread about slow pays! People were waiting 3 months trying to get like 8 grand and being lied too. I couldnt get $500 out of them, I cant imagine how screwed you are if your trying to get 8 grand. Good luck buddy.
Why I got myself involved with this book I dont remember. I eventually managed to get out, if I had actually beat them out of any money, who knows? I guess I would have been one of the people waiting 3 months for payment of a couple dimes and beng lied too and stalled the whole time. Fun, fun, fun.
1A) Crown XO- I remember why I deposited there. They had college basketball lines that could be like 3 points off. They just were not moving their lines when others were. Sent them $500 and rolled it up to $1800 pretty quicky. Had gone down to $1150 in there when I asked for $500.
I knew from the first phone call for payment I was dealing with a mickey mouse operation. This place was probably started by one guy with a 5,000 bankroll ( borrowed off a credit card) who figured you cant lose being the house and he could just rake it in.
Somehow, God knows how, I actually did get one $500 payout eventually ( My deposit ), but they would never send another cent. They went under after about 3 months of me trying to collect the $800 or so I had left there, which I never got.
The only two books ever to stiff me, there have been some close calls though, are this Crown joke shop and Aces Gold ( Only had about $680 left at Aces, could have been a lot worse).
I actually like WorldWager less than Crown XO. WW didnt stiff me, but Crown was so obviously not a real book and running on fumes that I knew I was in deep trouble after my first payout call to them. I was glad to get $500 out and resigned myself that it was very unlikely I could get any more.
WW is still out there. I wouldnt send them another penny for any reason.
stiff books :sad3:
s-l-o-w pays :sad3:
