William: thats what was on my bank account online statement this morning
Tati: I talk to you this morning
Tati: And told you to send a scan copy of the check
Tati: Did you send that already?
William: you didn't talk to me?
William: this is the first I've seen of this
William: I literally just found this out
Tati: My apologies, I got confused

That was my conversation with 5 Dimes...I'm a little worried for the fact that Tati had spoken to someone else whose check bounced earlier today and thought it was me....well if they fix it I'm fine with them.

Well my "problem" is I've got more money in my account to withdrawl than what they allow at once thru MG or WU.  I have over 40K...it would take 3 months to get it all out via that method.

someone else posted that their check bounced from 5dmes guess will just stick to ACH for now.

What is ACH?  Is it a sportsbook?  I was just researching who to sign up and deposit with and I was about to choose 5Dimes.  I still want to but this scares me.  Please keep us updated.  I'm not wagering very heavy, but it is still all that I can afford to lose and I would like to be secure.

ACH is a direct deposit to your banking account.

ACH through 5dimes should be good since they are arguably the best book online. But watch out for these average to below average books. They are using the US govt "freezing" funds to stall payouts. Its their new excuse to not pay and to protect their bottom line. Cashier checks is still the best method IMO.

I just received an email from 5dimes for a 5% bonus if I deposit $950. 
That seems very unusual.
This type of weird along with this bouncing check situation worries me.
Reminds me of the hit-n-run beted did after offering a ridiculous bonus.

Just saying.

Careful....

I worked for one of the biggest sportsbooks out there. Its not just this sportsbook that does this. Its a strategy they use so that when the funds are placed back into your account. After you've sent in bank statements and pictures of bank stamped check your already so upset that you spend the money you were trying to take out.

Usually this happens mostly to players, who have a life time value of 10k or less.

Players that take frequent payouts or took payouts recently.

Players that are up on the house.

What the hell is going on with 5dimes ? I couldn't use Moneygram to deposit like I always do. THEY WON'T ANSWER THE PHONE

Is 5dimes going down ?

Yeah I called their customer service and can never get anyone to answer the phone and the previous times that I did, they answered it on like the 8th ring. But when I called new accounts , someone picked up on the 2nd ring. Ive heard alot of good things about 5 dimes, but I'm starting to question myself now. Does anyone have any positive feedback on this book?

Books that service americans have problems with processors all the time.

It is part of the deal that checks are going to bounce.

They have to juke and jive with processors, and sometimes MG and WU too.

I had issues with security and my bank with 5dimes deposits. Are there any books that are safe to deposit/withdraw from for us?
