paying the 105 fee equates to 7%. over time you will not win with added expenses like this.

I just posted in other thread. I was on with live chat with BETMANIA to figure out Moneygram withdrawal fees since it is only option and its not located on their website.

$51 fee on $400 withdrawal!

It looks like only betjamaica for SB action for me.

Sportsbook owners don't walk down to a money gram to send out your withdrawal. They all have to work with a money gram franchize owner. If you put up your hard earned money to buy a franchize and you knew you were going to loose your business at some point because your are dealing with sportsbooks you would change many times over the normal fees, right? Well that's exactly what happens.

Each money gram has a limit to what they can receive and send out each day. With so many books using the same offices, they hit that limit every day now that other methods are not available. If a money gram can send out $50k per day and they have $250,000 in pending transfers, you do the math.

On a side note all the other clients of the world are still able to use Neteller, Money Bookers and Citadel for free. With 26 million online american gamblers you guys could unite and make enough noise to get your rights back as well or you can all simply cry about it here.

Can you tell your co-workers at Cris to stop calling me?

Or just go to Betjamaica or others that are not gouging American customers. Other Costa Rican books(I know greek's are not there) are not charging exhorbitant rates for withdrawals so i guess only BetCris has these expenses. By the way, how much have the owners of Cris spent in combating these ridiculous laws in U.S? Being they(Book owners) were the main beneficiaries of American gamblers' patronage you would thing they would have spent some serious dough to combat Frists of the world. The amount was very low considering the business they have lost due to DOJ actions. Then they turn around and contend that posters here should have been active against the laws and quit complaining here.

The good shops will remove your name if you nicely tell them you don't want any more phone calls. The iffy books, they don't seem to care if it bothers you or not.

Just want to mention one more thing, if you have 2,500 bonus points with CRIS you can use those to pay your $60 check fee. Not so shabby since the cash value of those points is $15.625.

Actually, if used optimally, 2500 points = at least $28.13, however that's still a lot better than $60.

How did you find out about this alternative? Is there a limit on the check amount?

$4,900 is the check limit

4,000 points = $50 Bonus Play

That's how I came to that value. I don't see any amount you could use to make 2,500 be worth $28. It's best value would be $18.75 used at 10,000 points. Remember a Bonus Play is about 50% of cash.

The good books don't call, nor spam the gaming sites with their promotion codes either.
