Back on Sunday, October 17th, I stumbled onto some threads about no-pays from several sports books. I panicked, beause I had nearly six figures spread out pretty evenly between three Costa Rican sportsbooks.
Monday Morning, October 18th, I called all three sports books and asked for a 100% payout.
Here is how the sportsbooks ranked for fast payment:
1.) BoDog accepted my payout request for just under $20K on Monday and I had a check in my hands by 10:00am Wednesday. They did not charge me for the payout, even though I had fallen just a few plays short of reaching the agreed upon rollover of 3X.
Total cost to get my money back: $0
Total days to get paid: 2
GRADE: A+
2.) Wagermall refused to accept my payout request on Monday, inisting that they only accept payout requests on Tuesdays through Thursdays. I called back Tuesday morning and Wagermall accepted my payout request for the entire account. The balance due was just under $35K. Wagermall said they could not issue a single check for that amount. Weird...they had no problem accepting my post up check for $30K??? Anyway, they wired $24.5K and sent two checks for the remainder, each under $5K. It took two days for the first check to arrive and three days for the bank wire. The second check arrived two days later. They reversed the fees for FedEx from my original post-up because I had not played the through the deposit three times (made it 2.5X, though), and charged me for the bank wire and for one of the checks.
Total cost to get my money back: $138.00.
Total days to get paid: 9
GRADE: C+
3.) Guardian Guaranty accepted my payout request on Monday for the full amount of just over $25K. I called late Wednesday to see if they had a FedEx number for me and they didn't. I was really freaked out. Panicking. They said they had to verify that my post up check had cleared. What??? I sent my post up monies by cashiers check to all three of these sportsbooks at the same time. They had received my cashiers check over 6 weeks earlier. I was very worried that I was gonna get stiffed. The following Monday, seven days later, everything was good. They had finally verified that my cashiers check had cleared. Now it's just a matter of them getting the payment processed. I call back on Wednesday, nine days after my initial payout request and still no FedEx tracking number. Now I'm nervous again. A few hours later, a girl from the accounting department calls me on my cell to explain that they can pay me, but they have to break it up into several smaller payments. We agree that they will wire $8K to my checking account before the weekend, send me a check via FedEx for $4,900 this week, and then they would do the same thing again next week. Finally, another six days, and I have all my money. They charged me $35 for the payout.
Total cost to get my money back: $35.00
Total days to get paid: 18
Grade C-
I can't rate any of the books lower than C- because they all paid. It took some time, some sweating and more phone calls than it should have with Guardian, but they paid me and all is good.
If anyone is looking to send large dollars to Costa Rica, these three books will pay. Guardian might make you sweat, but they'll pay. I left $6K with Guardian for nickle juice. I'm very confident in their abilities to pay, though it may take them a while.
