Hi, first time posting, and I've read of some people saying they had problems with cash outs from Betonline.
Just wanted to let you know I started there a month and a half ago with a freeroll win and built that up to over 3K in 3 weeks. I have received 3 moneygrams from them, 1 per week for the last three weeks running w/ no problems whatsoever.
I have spoken to other members on the site (daily tourney regs), and they also have cashed out w/o problems.
There are several hoops to jump through b4 getting your first payout, though. You must first make a minimum real money deposit of $50. I chose to use Moneygram to do this b/c there's a 7 business day wait if you use a credit card.
Then you must play through that amount, not a problem w/ $33 sng's. You then need to transfer the amount plus the amount of the fee to sportsbook wallet. Then make your request.
The first time I did it, it was confusing, but the live chat help is very responsive, thorough and helpful. I did talk to someone that said the customer service on the phone is deplorable but he was able to get his issue resolved easily with live chat.
All of my payouts have been requested Monday night and I've picked up the cash in less than 24 hours. Not sure about the other methods, but the moneygram fee is 10%.
Just wanted to put that out there in case anyone else was as nervous about this site as I was after reading some of the posts on here when I was getting ready to make my first cashout.

Have a good one, all

MIT grad that can't use "proof" in it's proper context? Or spell correctly? Doubt it. If so, maybe it is a different, less prestigious MIT in Nebraska or something.

If I had a hundred dollar bill for every time I heard this. I still wouldn't deposit on bol. I was however tempted to snap deposit after reading above post though.

Even sarcastically recommending this site to make fun of that shill post is a bad idea IMHO.

JP is not a shill. I'm sitting in his living room grinding Freerolls on BetOnline trying to build a little roll there. I'm not depositing unless I win enough to do a cash out. Traffic is super low. Tables are soft. Not sure if I trust the bot stories, or if it's rigged stories. I can confirm JP's cash out story is true. I recommended he post it. I told him in advance most people here wouldn't believe him.

Spoiler:
I hope I cash in this freeroll so I'll have a $1 in my account...lol

Even for Americans there are numerous other choices that are more reliable in terms of payout - pretty much any site other than Lock.

Besides the ridiculous amount of documents I had to send in the payout process was actually really fast.

I had my Moneygram/WU within 36 hours ready to be picked up. The player pool was absolutely horrendous as well.

I would still be playing there if I didn't always degen my money away in the online casino...

Hi 2+2 pple, I have recently won 3$ in a freeroll on betonline. I ran that 3$ up to 600,witch I have now. I have never deposited on BOL. I called them and asked them what I have to do to withdrawl my funds, and they said I have to at least make a min. depost and play it. Now I have heard a lot of negative stuff about BOL(witch is why Ive only been playing freerolls). so basicly what im asking is if I deposit, do you think they will try to mess with me. please pple with exp. with BOL post comments and advice here for me. It would really be appreciated.TYVM

This is like the umpteenth thread claiming this. I am going to rush over and print money at betonline ......not
10-29-2013 , 03:49 PM
i'm in the same situation, started w $1 in a freeroll, up to $670 now, but i really hate to deposit on BOL after reading some of this. any ideas?
10-29-2013 , 03:52 PM
LOLZ^ another grinded 1 dollar from freeroll to 600 dollar feelgood story. Why don't I feel good?
10-29-2013 , 11:56 PM
i dont feel good about it, but i did nake over 600 w zero deposit. it can happen, but they require a deposit, which makes me nervous. never had this problem on ant other site, BOL may be the biggest pain in this regard, but i still would like to know if i might ever get my $$
10-30-2013 , 02:56 PM
I played there for about 3 months before I gave up online poker.

I received 3 cashouts, all WU or MG.

They replaced my check w/d by those methods. All piad within 72 hours.

US player here too.

Kind of wondering the same thing, myself. I have heard some horror stories about cash outs though.

Is this a safe place to make a small deposit?

Have you seen the recent skin updates?

Good luck multi-tabling with the attached black jack screens that take up the right side of the poker table.

just tried this site last week - wanted to use a different site then bodog - nice lines for the SB - of course I didnt realize about the 6x rollover. Its pretty ugly.

I decided to play poker on the site as well with my account and I ran up a nice poker roll to 3k in a few days and won some small bets at the SB but then found out that poker isnt included in the rollover! So even though I did well with my bets/poker - I still need to rack up a decent chunk of sportsbet wins before I can withdrawl.

Overall the players can be pretty wild and loose. Ive seen guys sit at 1/2 nl omaha and just repeatedly push for 200 an entire afternoon.

Be careful when you are depositing to the poker room and not the sports book - Im not sure the bonus is actually worth it given the additional sports betting I'll need to do to get access to my poker wins


Anybody else have a recent experience with trying to cash out? Asking around on the site they seem to have had some success - hopefully I will too and can post either way here!

So I just began the withdraw process and found it - its 30!!! days if you accept any sort of bonus before you can withdraw ON TOP of the 6 times rollover. I asked live support if there is some sort of penalty I can pay to speed up the process, but no luck. The other part that seems interesting is they cap the amount you can withdraw via each method with some pretty harsh processing fees so it looks like it might even take longer for me to get out a decent chunk of my account.

Ive asked guys at the tables if they've had trouble and they seem to have been able to get cash out fine once they clear all these hurdles.

Just got emailed a promo from BOL for a free $20 and tourney entry, login to my account, NO money or tourney entry. Contact live chat support, told to forward the promo to a BOL dept to get it. Waiting to see what happens but this whole process seems odd. Also had a CS rep in live chat ask for my username AND password but when I just gave them my username and asked why they needed my password too they transferred me to the poker dept. Just an odd experience thus far with BOL.

Well fwiw this promo turned out to be legit, just got emailed that the free $20 has been added to my account along with "rubies" to buy into the 10k tourney. Others that haven't played on BOL in awhile, I hadn't for years, might want to check their email for this promo.
