Reason I read at another forum was due to payment problems. I can't back it up with facts though, just what I read.

Is nine.com related to them? They are shutting down as well.

Here's some info from another site...

You are now chatting with 'Philip'

Your Issue ID for this chat is LTK575079756X

Philip: Thank you for contacting us at VIP.com. How may I help you?

my008859: rumor has it VIP will be shut down at the end of this month due to payment problems. Any truth to this rumor?

Philip: Yes.

my008859: :-(

Philip: Unfortunately due to industry and money processing constraints, we have decided to close the company at the end of this month. All players with balances that meet the minimum payout requirement are welcome to submit withdrawal requests online from now until the end of this month, or continue to play their balances until the end of this month.

my008859: nine & gameday as well?

Philip: Yes, as well

my008859: what is the minimum payout requirement?

Philip: Minimum payout is $260

my008859: do you accept deposits until a certain date?

Philip: There are no deposit options available.

my008859: :-(

Philip: It is unfortunate.

my008859: When were you going to notify players? I didn't receive an e-mail from VIP about this closing.

Philip: We are notifying players as from today.

my008859: where will you work, can you collect unemployment insurance where you live?

Philip: Is there anything else I can help you with?

my008859: apparently not

Philip: Have a nice day

Philip: Bye.

Chat session has been terminated by the site operator.

betgameday told me that a withdrawal could be made via WU or a check sent by courier. I;ve never used WU but have a feeling this is the safest,most secure way to go. Agree ? thanks

fuck you US government.



Just cant figure out why our government isnt opening up their own sportsbooks run by Vegas & what not. Government just doesnt like us gambling, they are such a joke. They rather have us as slaves, working all the time & then taking their share from taxes.

Because the "MOB" runs everything. All the politicians, judges etc., getting kickbacks and I mean large kickbacks, would suffer. Other than Vegas and a few others sports gambling will never be legal in the US.

Are you serious? if that is the case why not have the mob open up online sportsbooks, they would rake in far more than what you say.

it comes down to the US wanting to control us, and we all know they know what's best for us. We got resprenstaives paying for underage sex, running around on tax payers money buy prostitutes, and who knows what else. if you look at it, the every day moron runs this country, and it is sad

The mob isnt as powerful like they were in the 80's & before. Football is their biggest income when it comes to booking but they just dont have the power like they use to & like BigBet mentioned, the government just wanna control us & turn us into robots.
