I received an email from one of my books today saying they were sorry for the delay in processing my withdrawal and that I could call after 6pm for my money control number. Here is the thing. I received that cashout around 3 weeks ago and havent and havent played there since. The amount is the same as my original request and it was dated today. The weird part was when I requested the cashout it was for $1000 and I had around $1400 in there. They sent me the full $1400. I thought they were closing my account since they sent it all. Now I get the email that my grand is ready.

Would you call and play stupid and see if you get a control number?

And point out that any further delays in payment will be result in you closing your account. :drink:

Personally I would never touch the money if I was already paid it. These type of errors always come to light at some point down the road. Next thing you know you might find an account at another book locked up because they happen to be in the same family of the book in question. Just not worth having to worry about it catching up to you, not to mention doing the right thing is always best.

I'd let them know they already paid me, even more than i requested.

You don't want to fuck with Karma.

LOL.

I dont plan on calling for the control number. I would be interested to see if they did pay again though. Can you check a withdrawal at WU or Money Gram without a control number?

Here is a win-win idea....

Why not call them up and tell them to cancel the payment request. Then if your account is credited with $1400. You take that $1400 and bet the UCLA moneyline. If you win cash out your winnings only and leave the original $1400 in the book. If you lose then oh well it was house money. Consider it a "Sign-Out" bonus as opposed to a "Sign-Up" bonus.

lol. Kind of thought i would see some of that too.

Guess I should have said I already took the money. That would have fired up a few.

i'd take it and laugh at the fucking book. the book laughs at me when i lose. so i'll laugh at them when they fuck up and give me extra money. unfortunatly, i don't have such luck that my book would double pay me.

Do you want to use the book ever again, or is it a throwaway book ? Most likely they find it on their own.
