and i can't add anyone in las vegas as friends because hyperlinks are messed up for covers myspace friends pages.  If only the gaming industry for an offshore sportsbook like 5dimes was good like i thought, i would not care to have any friends.  But i can probably only stay physically in las vegas about 14 days out of every month.  Am i looking for a bookie?  no, you don't need a local bookie in las vegas so definitely not looking for that, i need friends.

just went to the western union website to check my control number i thought maybe was stolen and it's not so i'm happy about that but really tired of all the human errors that i have had to endure regarding western union withdrawals as well as some deposits long before when i was doing them.  i'm just chalking this one up as a slow pay due to the error of the western union processors.  is it 5dimes fault?  probably not but who knows, that's why i used the word "some" as opposed to "all"

well the reason why i always made sure to do western union is because the check processors have gotten screwed in the past from the usa government making it very difficult to pass.  In other words, check were getting bounced and 5 dimes for instance would request that you make a copy of the bounced check, send it back to them and i believe most of the time people got their money back, but it ends up being at least a 3 week ordeal and more.  i would NEVER request a check unless i knew firsthand they have made changes to what was going on recently.

by the way i also have bookmaker and betdsi, have the prepaid debit card option for payouts as a matter of fact with bookmaker but i don't have much confidence left in the online gaming industry for americans.

i also like heritage but i'm tired of thinking about western union withdrawals.  Most of these really good books are indeed just that, it's just that western union is not reliable to me as much anymore.

You tried Bovada? I just posted a thread about it. I just joined them about a month ago when Sports Interaction shut me down. Already received a check payout and got it within a few days and cashed it at the bank with no problem. Look at my thread a few posts down.. GL bro

would never do bovada which used to be bodog basically.  have you not seen bodog becky threads in here from a few years ago?  lets assume that bovada is a lot better than before, that does not matter to me.  Once a criminal, always a criminal even if you've been clean for the last 20 years and how long as it been since bovada "cleaned" up their act, 2 years assuming?  Nope, can't do it

slow paying and no paying, there's always been problems regarding payouts from them.  Too many people were getting the runaround

Hey Crow Ive been using 5dimes for probably the past 5 years and I have never made a withdrawal request. Probably since im an action junkie lol.  Anyway, if I was ever to make a withdrawal request I was gonna use western union just like you do because im skeptical of the whole check situation as well.  How does the withdrawal method work using western union? I know that sounds like a dumb question but Im curious cuz I may just make a withdrawal request here soon :)  Thanks

make sure you call into 5dimes at 9am eastern if you want to better your chances of getting the control number the next morning.  i don't recommend moneygram.  the few deposits and withdrawals that i have made using this method in the past have caused me to have to make a few calls or take a few calls.  in other words too many questions were being asked and i didn't like it.  so i have always steered clear of moneygram for the last few years.  last i heard, the person in charge of moneygram was heavily against the online gambling industry.  

the other thing is the most you can request at a time last time i checked was $2500 through western union every 8 days.  I have noticed this policy has changed every so often depending on what days you make the request.  There was a time in the past where i made a request on a saturday or a sunday and i was only able to do $990.  if i wanted more than that, i needed to wait till the monday.

So once I get my control number from 5dimes I can go to a Rite Aid store that offers western union and pick up my money? No matter how much I request?  Do they ask you questions there? I feel so stupid asking these questions but I honestly don't know.  Thanks
