More or less cause we are not BetOnSports and we wouldn't take over a company as big as VO Group.. LOL!

Anyways, if I'm not wrong everything is solved for the players and no one should be doing any different rollover than the one they had in RCS.

that was posted at SBR maybe he knows more than RPM hope its true

RPM is getting fed a line of B.S. and he is trying to sugarcoat it I'm afraid

This waitng for a announcement from RPM or RCS is now getting old. I'm open to giving everyone the benefit of the doubt and get the story together but now we are going on the third day here and still no story or results on what is up with our money! Come on someone has to know something by now.APPLE


I like my drinkin,dippin,and bettin. In that order.

I don't know anything more than RPM or Roberto, I just know that everything is working out the best way for the players. I'm sure that both RPM and Roberto are waiting to have 100% of the details before posting anything new.

What is best for me is being able to w/d 100% of my balance and having it in my hands by Friday (tomorrow) and saying goodbye to RCS.

Thanks for being around, since your down there and seem to have some insight on the deal. Just seems to be taking a long time is all. Take care Jay.APPLE

i think its reasonable to give some action to whoever takes over rich coast,who would want to inherit a run on the neteller acct.when the offshore industry protects players balances it builds confidence among players and should be well know to new players that when this happens they come out allright.all the forums should be involved in helping the players now,i dont even see any mention at major wager,and hard core negativity doesnt solve problems.since millenium took over my change a bet acct last year i have made them a permanent book,and will remember whoever steps up here.i love to gamble but the low lifes who screw this up for everyone need to have the opportunity removed with goverment required escrow accts,etc.thanks to roberto who seems to be doing the most for the players here

von mellenthen, the MAJOR problem here is a worse book (D-) is taking over, BookTheBet. If a solid book or even a C rated book were 'helping out' then I would feel a bit different

If I'm not mistaken isn't Bookthebet on the SBR AVOID list. I don't take too much into SBR's ratings but your right if a C rated or better book took them over I also would feel differently.APPLE

if a low rated books takes over it is still better than nothing,and then we can begin the SLOW process of withdrawing our money and maybe the low rated book will become highly rated(everyones hero) once we get out.the critics out there usually dont have money at stake but are simply competing sportsbooks.i have completed my rollover and was slowly pulling out when this happened.last night i added $750 to my r.c. balance making a bet on a soft line before i heard of all this shit.funny all the critics of royal,yet they paid my $34000 balance,slowly but surely.all this hurts the industry,why would anyone play anywhere but the most solid books if not for the bonus.i trusted nelson and was attemtping to do him a favor by playing there,every agent i have every known are con men,i sent $200 as a christmas gift to one "friend in costa rica" and havent heard from him till he needs something again-never again

Hey dumbass, that soft line that you bet $750 on is the REASON THIS SHOP IS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS!

Get a clue.

I don't mind waiting, but the "I'll have it for you tonight...in an hour...tomorrow morning" is getting a little wearing. All these deadlines have passed.

The balances are all up and the "new" book is functional. It doesn't look bad. I just wish the hell we could be given a straight deadline. The most information I've got is from the clerk at the end of the phone. Whatever the word is - WHATEVER - I sure as hell could do with hearing it. I can do without assurances I'll be told within the hour when that clearly is not happening.

No offence, TOW; I know you're doing your best here. But many people have serious vested interests in this matter.

Looks like I am one of these people...
Coming back from a 5-day visit to my parents I find myself now in a very uncomfortable situation.
 
Purchased money into RichCoastSports several weeks ago (due to the good 'reviews' they got - and being a member of the Rookie project) - and had a nice winning streak during the last few weeks.
 
To be honest, the happiness about my well over $5k balance there is really cooling down at the moment.
 
I hope, this situation will be handled in a proper way - if not, I am sure, it will have a strong effect on my thinking about advertising new sportsbooks and the offshore sportsbook industry in general...

Here is the thing. If bookthebet bails us out, on the one hand ti would be nice to give them action. On the toher hand, f we all agve bookthebet action, we would put them out of buiness in a very short period of time. WHile richcoast may have had some soft numbers, its nothing compared to bookthebet. I don't know what the game plan is, but I think bookthebet is making a mistake by taking us all on.

But if there is any kind of rollover, I would first want someone to verify that there is money available to pay us once the roll is complete.

The dude prolly had no insurance, the hospital bills were prolly from 70-100k. Atleast it went to a good cause.

Costa Rica healthcare is dirt cheap...I am guessing a heartattack costs 1k at most
