Even If it is just a few cents I do not like it.

I am talking about how you can have $1.000.65 in
your account and when you withdraw they keep
whatever change you have left. I do not like that
even if it is just a few cents..

Have you noticed alot of books doing this?

It is not like the .65 is going to break anybody:missingte
- Besides I have never known them to keep it-it stays in your account. and if it bothers you that bad, go to the casino and play the nickel slots :grandmais

Most places do not allow books to pay out in cents. I know for sure neteller is straight whole dollar payouts. That is the biggest reason for all the floating penny's in most accounts.

You can use the cents with Neteller at Mansion for one. I had an odd .90 amount at NT from a peer to peer transaction, was able to deposit it to Mansion, must work on a withdraw as well.
 

And if the Road Warrior says it, it must be true..

What i hate is that some books when you do a parlay dont calculate the loose change...

for example
Parlay
$100
ABC -2 (-1.05)
CBA +2 (-1.20)
$100 should pay out 257.93 but some books will only pay the whole dollar amount

I recall a story from long ago when computers were introduced into banks about an inside embezzlement of fractional cents that were siponed off into the embezzler's account. For example if you got monthly interest of $3.237 you got $3.23 and the $.007 was siponed off. Amazing how it adds up over thousands of accounts.
