Is anyone else having constant messages from 5dimes when you go to place wagers.. saying "Line is being evaluated check back later." This is happening 50 to 65% of the time with every wager I am trying to place....

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I received a check from 5Dimes drawn on a Canadian bank. It's now hung up in the fraud department at my bank. I think Bitcoin may be the way to go from now on. Anyone else have issues like this?

The check and DElay

The check and DElay

American banks are refusing to accept International checks. Wells Fargo would not allow us to deposit a check from 5d. We had to go through our bank in NJ to deposit it.


IE- So you think it is being done purposefully? I have spoken to a sportsbook manager at a book I used to be allowed to use and he says it is.... wanted a second opinion. My wife and I joke that we know how good or bad of a day I am having on Saturdays based on whether I am allowed to make wagers on the late games...
I like 5dimes varied lines but I am getting sick of Tony and the rest of the BS

If you aren't using BTC to transact with offshores you cannot be helped.

Musca-
5dimes has never done me wrong. Never had problems with checks from them, but now I use strictly bitcoin...much easier.
When I was depositing checks from 5dimes, I had to go to TD Bank because my local bank was hitting me up with international fees and some other type of fee. TD Bank was no fee, never an issue.
I was limited big time last year, but only in "live wagering." I no longer "live wager" anywhere anymore, even though it was profitable for me last year....it was turning me into a couch potato, so I stopped. (Can't "live wager" and exercise/go for a run at the same time!) So I was fine with Tony's decision.
I have never been limited with my full-game or 2H wagers. I must not win enough!
Yes, I've read that some 5dimes customers have gotten that same message that you've been getting...."Line is being evaluated" From what I hear, it's more HOW you win with Tony that can upset him. Are you betting steam?
Also, from what I know about Tony, and most other books, if you win a certain amount of money lifetime (or in a quick spurt) you can get limited. The risk management team stays on top of people's overall figures. Fellow Madjackers, please correct me if I'm wrong here. I am certainly no expert.
The handful of times that I've wanted to add to "max bets" at 5dimes, their system took a few minutes to reset. Then I was allowed to bet into it some more. Sometimes the line/odds were the same. Other times they changed the lines/odds on me. Maybe this is what is happening to you, but they've just added that message? But it sounds like your issue is different. Are you getting that message on "new" bets...meaning, your initial play on that team?
I love 5dimes prices. That's what keeps me there. (I'm not into all the alternative lines and fancy props they have there, but that is another advantage of 5dimes over most of its peers.)
Bottom line for me....5dimes is near the top of my wagering lineup, but it is not perfect by any means.

I am in the process

I am in the process

Of phasing out 5dimes and that POS of Tony..... I now only deal with them in BTC but earlier I did draw checks because BTC was so volatile. I also used TD bank to deposit the check.

I was looking at the book i.e. posted but I cannot review lines or their interface without an account...


I will wait until after March... take every cent I can from the fuckheads and then move my money. Just tired of the bullshit... I Missed 6 Wagers yesterday because the line was being evaluated... Today I have not been allowed to make a few wagers because lines are being evaluated... fucking crooks

I used

I used

When Olympic stopped with USA Players they set up accounts for us at Heritage. I remember not loving it.

5dimes is such a joke.... Constantly messing with my limits... Yesterday I had 500$ limits on the womens games and now today they are 100$. It just insane. Once I get through this week I am going to pull my money and then try to go to another place.

I like the 5, 10, 15 minute lines that 5dimes has. I also like they are now offering lines on quarters for the womens games.... just going to have to find something different.

Musca-
Yes, I think you are doing the right thing by moving on from 5dimes. It sounds like they don't want your action. Plenty of other solid options out there.
Good luck!
