If you play at their poker tables it gets even worse. I guarantee they have bots playing and cheating. If you want details pm me.

I have been with VIP/Nine.com for ages now.  I have never had a payout issue with WU or Moneygram.  I prefer moneygram because I request my payout at 9AM and I am picking up my Moneygram by 1PM.  Can't get any better than that.

If youve been with VIP for years you must be a terrible gambler cause they boot all winners.

They boot their winners?  Hahah.  No they don't check the web they are one of the highest rated online books on the web.  I have multiple and they are one of the best.  Won a lot always get same day payouts.  Never one issue.  Ever.  Excellent.

VIP is a class act.  Been an A- / B+ for years on SBR.  They were even right up there with Pinny at A / A+ a few years back.   Not sure why the slight drop off in rating, if you call going to B+ a drop off, but I've never had an issue with them.

I played with them years ago never had a problem. I was paid out with a small delay (It was the super bowl time) and every book got creamed.

I switched over to the greek not a bad word about them always paid out and always treated with respect.

I switched to 5dimes because they offer boxing props and parlays where as thegreek doesn't.

VIP I didn't like their layout and how slow (back then) the lines came out. 

But never got shafted.

I have been with VIP since 2004.  I would highly recommend this book to anyone,but here's the catch. VIP no longer accepts U.S. customers after Congress passed the gambling bill.

Everything is great about VIP.  They have greatly upgraded their site to make it faster and more efficient in terms of updating your account and bonus within minutes.  Also, the automated system will tell you if you have met the requirement to request a withdrawal such as meeting the rollover requirement, etc

VIP broke my cherry in '98.  Got a laptop and internet connection at Christmas.  Opened an account by the big Bowl Games.

They send me free shit every year.  Last year a BBQ set.  This year a lawn chair and umbrella.  I always get paid.  Always.

I must endorse VIP.  They've been treating me well for a long time.  Quick payouts, huge player point accruals, cash rebates twice a month, and they send me gifts all the time.  This last Christmas they sent me a Nikon CoolPix camera.  I also just received a free $100 for my birthday.  I'm glad I joined before the bill was passed.

I got the BBQ set,an awesome folding chair and cooler duffle bag,and best of all a $150 Bulova watch. They have always paid me same day. If I had to find  a negative it would be how the bonuses changed.

Chunes, you are fine. You should be able to get paid. They just don't accept US players anymore just like Pinnacle.

I am a platinum2 member. I looked at their site and there's no reference of platinum levels.  They didn't give me anything for my Birthday. They didn't give me anything for Christmas. They didn't give me anything for being a loyal customer. I didn't get anything whatsoever. Zilch! Nada! lol

I like VIP cause I do get random gifts in the mail like the chair and the BBQ set. I just got a free 25 buck free play... But as far as sports lines and wagering is concerned 5 Dimes is my favorite cause they offer every line possible and you can buy as many points as you want. The only thing with 5 Dimes is their bonuses suck and no gifts from what i see so far but I am fairly new.. Lmk what you 5 Dime fans think...should I stay with VIP or 5 Dimes?
