Surely you dont have to pick your team from scratch again for every entry
I have joined and there is no import/export for line-up. But no complaints as the free roll games have varied contests and decent prizes. Going final version of their game in August for start of Premier League season will have all guessing minus a swap option.

Scoring is neat, budget is fair, 11 rooster and team formation is flexible. Single entry only on the contests, makes for a nice change. They seem to have a lot beta users and can see their game having wider appeal. Good timing to launch as well.

By the way how is everyone enjoying the crap annoying ads on DK's app ? Draft Kings deny what they doing as well, hopefully Fan Duel can stay clear off treating their customers like stupid idiots.

FD scoring is a dream for the DFS soccer sharks imo.

But my issue is liquidity. With no US guys, a fierce competition (mostly from DK, Mondo and Sky) and an extremely complicated scoring system, I just fear that the prizes will remain v small. Overlay could interest me though

I don't know about the phone app as I have not recently used it to enter a contest, but I am all for displaying ads on the main site. I think it is a great way for the operators to increase revenue without increasing the rake. I've also heard mention of sponsored contests (not sure if they do this yet or not). Really like this idea as well for the same reason

There's no fierce competition. Nobody is spending any money. If Fanduel do, they'll get most the market.

Banner ads on their web page is none of my concern, they could blitz it with adverts if they like. But I mainly use the app as the desktop version has problems with geo-location, impossible to use it for few minutes before it denies access.

So making me watch the crappiest apps you can imagine when I enter teams is very lame. It is a bit desperate and hopefully Fan Duel will not do this.

On the rake, if is already very high. Does not cut the ice with me this argument.

The scoring is one of the best I have seen. There is a variety of ways to play it and the better for it. You can play a defensive line up or an attacking one. It is your call. They have no unnecessary scoring that spoils gameplay. I will be playing all their contests during the beta testing phase.

On not having joined prize pools it makes a lot of sense. They are a company based with head office in Scotland and also in the US, they seem much more cautious on the legal implications for their business. Draft Kings is a US based business that takes more risks but look where it has got them. Applying for gambling licence, having joined pools then arguing it is not gambling is silly.

So could see Mondogoal and Fan Duel being the number one for DFS football in the UK. Prizes in the countries currency and a platform solely focused on football with diverse leagues from around the world on offer.

With others like FantasyBet, Bet4best and Premier Punt on the second tier. Then others who only have prizes in euros like Fanaments and Fan Team on a third tier.

Playon have become a multi-sport DFS platform with football, cricket, golf etc ... But they really need to sort out their site as it has lots of glitches. They have nailed official partnership for Golf & Cricket and set for the long term.

DK's 8 person rooster is more similar now to games like Picklive, FanFeud and Dribble. The only exception being it has much bigger prizes and users.

Is anyone else having troubles withdrawing from Mondogoal? I cashed in the end of season championship. Withdrew and nothing was processed. Contacted support after 2 weeks and no response. DMed the twitter account and support then said they'd look in to it. More time and nothing, with no response to an email requesting an update. It's been 3.5 weeks now since I tried withdrawing.

I am in a similar position with a large withdrawal. Tend to cash out after the season is all complete. Have provided all the documents so they can do the KYC (know your customer) verification which is required for large withdrawals.

So awaiting till they process it all. They have been in touch and expect them to complete it all soon. For smaller withdrawals it is done in a matter of days.

Just email customer support scanned copies of your passport and driving license. They look under staffed to me with just one person dealing all the customer support work.

KYC verification should not take longer than one or two weeks at most.

Have already complied with that and withdrawn multiple times previously. It's not clear what the issue is with the hold up this time and it hasn't been communicated.

Has anyone received the money they have withdrawn? The traffic died after DK launched and the flagship gpp was crushed.

It is my first time time making a large withdrawal, so have no idea how long that takes. My previous small withdrawals of few hundred of pounds have been credited to the bank within two to three days.

They have launched a very good app, offering a summer championship and set up few business to business deals. Also tied up significant partnership with major clubs across the leagues. They have no legal issues to deal with in the US. So they seem set for the long-term growth.

Let us know when the withdrawal is complete, will do likewise too. We want to be sure that people can withdraw their funds and it is processed with an appropriate time. I am now coming up to over two weeks since my withdrawal request and a week since I have provided all the documentation they asked.

I always find if you keep asking them about it openly on twitter they will deal with a lot quicker at they don't want the bad publicity

If that doesn't work with the @Mondogoal account try @Chris_Mazzone or @shergul as they are always on twitter and are more than likely to respond.

Good point Dan. I sent one more follow-up email today, if they drag on with it. I will ask both of them on Twitter, they are active in there for sure. Think a lot of these sites can be much more professional in dealing with their customers. The least you expect is updates on how the customer requests are being dealt with.

My one and only Mondogoal cashout (for quite a large amount, back in March) took 22 days from me sending requested documents until it hit my bank. Unfortunately from reading the few posts above sounds like this might be about standard.
Soccer (EPL/CL/MLS etc) DFS Thread Quote

Yeah it will take a while for that cashout to get processed... Just keep chasing them via email.

Looks like FFS have partnered with DK for this season which should be huge, hopefully will attract lots of new players.

I have been waiting for my Mondogoal withdrawal for 6 months now. Have exchanged several emails with them but they don't seem to know what they are doing.

I would not deposit any money there.

Six months, that is a very long time. How much is it for if you do not mind me asking ? Yes, hard to make any deposit unless you sure the funds are protected.

Most of my smaller withdrawals have gone fine, just eager to see how long this large withdrawal takes.

There is a lot more sites that have ooened this summer so none have an excuse to be so complacent. Eager to see what Squwaka do with MatchBoss next season, looks impressive so far with a very unique game play. They have resources to market it big and 30k freeroll for Euro 2016 is very decent.

I can not seem them offering it every game day, way too much overlay. They will do when England are playing. Summer championship is fine, but even that one does not need many tickets as it a smaller prize pool.

Also so many sites offering Euro 2016 fantasy games this summer. Finding Fan Duel scoring a delight and decent contests everyday all for free.

This Fan Duel beta version scoring for the Euro 2016 games. The best aspect being only shots on target are scored, nothing for crosses but 5 successful passes gets 0.25pts. Salary budget is fair and picking a decent line up is feasible. Think they on to a very good thing here, the app and desktop beta version is good too.

11 players
No subs, no captains, just a straightforward 11 player team.
Flexible formation
Choose a goalkeeper, 3-5 defenders, 3-5 midfielders and 1-3 forwards.
Spread the love
You can't choose more than 4 players from one team.

Looks good, very similar to mondo, but ints and takles are more valuable and replace CS for defenders. SoT super high though.

Where do you find the lineups for Copa America? I just can't find the lineups for Ecuador-Haiti anywhere on twitter with less than 30mn to go before kickoff, nothing from google either. Rotowire has them since 35mn before kick-off, not sure where they got it from. Any reliable source?

Like how there is a variety of ways to win their game. Similar to Mondo scoring indeed and look forward to see their final version in August,

Not easy to get line-up news for teams for Copa America and very late kick-off as well. I just check the main Twitter page for Copa America and teams news comes out half an hour before.

On Tournaments in general tend to wait till teams have played one round of games at least to see who starts and crucially who gets the full 90 minutes playing time.
