After waiting a month for two small cashouts (which still haven't come), I made a $1500 WU request yesterday. I told Bodog it was important to know when it was coming because I needed the money soon. Less than 24 hours later, my payout was approved, processed and available for pickup.

Awesome job, very impressed. The other two payouts they converted to WU but not sure when they're coming.

Mine took about 12 hours to be ready. I picked it up less than a day after i requested it. Couldn't believe it after reading all the posts about cashout problems over the last month.

Thank you for this post. I was just in the process of figuring out the best way to cashout out of Bodog. I really wasnt looking forward to waiting a month for a check in the mail. I'll give WU a shot.

I just talked to Bodog support today for about 30 minutes. The guy I talked to has been with them for years and knew a lot about their current situation.

Basically I called because I was pissed I hadn't received a payout in 19 business days. I kept getting form letter responses, which only served to piss me off more.

Anyway, he explained the whole situation to me. I told him that Bodog had always been good with payouts, even in light of the NeTeller debacle, and that I'd been happy to get my Western Union payouts so quickly. He said that for about 45 days, they tried to use a 3rd party to move money directly into our checking accounts. That company turned out to be terrible and Bodog severed ties with them.

The guy then told me that they'll be using Western Union for the time being, but that the ultimate goal is for them to find another 3rd party solution as quickly as possible. Western Union is very expensive for them and it's not particularly convenient for the customer, either.

Anyway, in summary, their support was very good on this issue. But, don't be surprised if the Western Union option disappears again sometime very soon.

same here...request wed payout next day. Western Union. Bodog has always been solid on the support. Better to talk to someone than wait for an email for a few days.

No. They pay out in spaghetti.

WOW BG exact same problem here. Was so fed up with Bodog yesterday. Had been 20 business days for me. Was originally a couriered check which they switched to direct deposit to my checking (without telling me)... no big deal i guess right? WRONG. 20 business days later and several calls all i got was the run around that it can take a little longer than usual, they have been having problems... what else is new. So on the final call yesterday they tell me they can no longer do the deposit to checking method. LOL thx for switching it auto without me even wanthing it that way then tell me a month later they cant do it. So my options yesterday...? Well either check (my freakin original way), or WU. She tells me 3 business days most likely for WU..so I go that route. Obv the 1st email i get says can take up to 10 business days. Im really hoping i get the control number email in the next few days like you guys did so quickly or I'd be rather upset. If it goes a full 10 days we're talking almost a month half for a cashout that shouldnt have taken any longer than 7-10 business days the way i wanted it. Now possibly 30 business days. well done.

I requested a check on the 4th, USPS got it yesterday and its on its way

The "Money Transfer Payout" option is Western Union then basically right ?

Yeah, exactly. As of March 3rd, I think.

FigMan I got the same email you did about an average of 10 business days. No more the 10 hours later I had all the info for a pick up.

F BEANIE...... seriously though we went thru this before man. I had problems earlier and it finally was resolved. I then posted about that and although wasnt happy with how things transpired I thanked bodog for getting it resolved.

Now this an entirely different situation and even worse of a problem. There is no way i am worried about getting my money... OBV i know im getting my money. Totally besides the point and beanie has to stop acting like he works for bodog, and acting like we have no reason for complaints here.... Im sorry but if i dont call them i have no idea whats going on. Basically the only email i recieved was on feb 7th saying it was switched to my bank rather than the check i requested...n should be 5 business days... 5!!!!!!!!! a month later... 20 business days and no word??? Yeh i know there can be delays. Does that mean i cant call or wonder WTF?? 4 times as long and i have no reason for concern or reason to be upset?????? I as a customer have every reason to call and ask what is going on and how can this be resolved. And BTW when I call I am totally respectful and am just a consumer inquiring about a problem which is clearly the companies fault not mine. So Beanie PLEASE stop coming to the aid of Bodog as if we are some assholes complaining for no reason... its really getting quite old.

BTW as BG said some people need their money, as do I. Waiting well over a month and now possibly longer with really no straight answers ever as to why is unnacceptable. I did nothing but express my displeasure with how things have gone and maybe my problem is i should come off more difficult and bitch to them on the phone if i want anything to get done. Otherwise all i did was ask politely whats going on and can u help me and said, "ok thanks for your help and switching it to WU". So my faith in them coming thru in a timely fashion for oooh the bizzillionth time is my problem i guess.
