Agree with Dan. The book should do this ahead of time if they want to check into a players account. That being said, I still don't think that books that do this will ever change their policies. |

books policies make sense in this case
if they audited before hand (after you make a deposit but before you make a bet), they would have to freeze you account once you had money in it and people would be complaining about that - your money woulkd be in there but you would not be able to bet with it for 24-48 hours until they verified your identity.
much easier to do it on the way out, and makes A LOT more sense from the book perspective |

Let me throw my two cents....
An audit is unecessary if the book has proper risk management in place, cause this is being done on all booked action 24/7. Anomalies, discrepancies, flagging and so on are done every day by routine.
I can understand if accountancy wants to verify if rollover requirements have been met and if the strings or rules attached to the mean of deposit ( credit card or e-check for instance ) have been abided to. But merely stating the account is being audited and buying anywhere between 3 to 10 days on a payout is a stall tactic that has nothing to do with a real audit procedure. |

BBD,
I tend to agree with you but it seems that many gamblers are more than willing to go through some "pain" to get juicier numbers.....risk vs reward.... |
