Skybook sports book?????....

STRIKEKING · Jul 28, 2009

First let me say that I requested a payout on Sunday the 26th and I received it today the 28th so that's cool, but what I'm asking from you guys is have any of you had problems with Skybook relating to payouts?? I know that the 2 days it took me to get mine isn't a big deal but in calling each day to find out if it was ready, I was told several times that it is taking up to a week to recieve Western Union and Moneygram, which in 20 years of doin this sounded like a "red flag?" Maybe I'm being paranoid or whatever but I don't want to get stuck let we all have heard so many times..Also this payout was less than $1000, so I don't want to get some major money with them and get burnt...Any and I mean any insight on this would be greatly appreciated...

Skybook has always been a good book... been around a long time

things are simply different now than a few years ago....i dont really 2 days is all that bad.....and also if u dont count sunday (which a lot of books dont do payouts on weekends) it was just 1 day, which is fine

yes, some places are doing them faster, but many are slower than that...

You are dealing with a reputable book, who has been around for years, so i would think you are safe.....i dont think they would ever close the doors and run......

Thanks for the info guys..Yeah the 2 days it took for me to get money, well actually 1 day since I requested Sunday, was not my concern..It was that I was told by the Cust Service rep at Skybook that it was taking up to a week?? I feel they are a sound book but just tryin to be safe and not sorry later?? Thanks for the input..

well to be honest SK, i think your scenario that happened is a good sign..

the clerk is telling you that it can take 7 days and u got it in 2 days....after they had already given you the timeline of 7 days which means they paid sooner than they needed to...

I would be more worried with the book that tells you 2 days, and it takes 7 days......LOL
