Hi All,
I've been a longtime lurker and have been using a local book until recently I joined 5Dimes after my uncle told me that it was a great site. So I decided to give them a try a few weeks ago and deposited 500 and had a pretty good run so far. Hitting a few big parlays. So many choices!
The reason I am posting is because I made a wager at 2:01pm today and it was cancelled AFTER it won at 5:01pm. I was told it was a bad line.
Here is the wager:
92006762-2
10/10/11 2:01pm $200.00 $500.00 $200.00 Cancelled 10/10/11 4:10pm Baseball MLB Tigers vs Rangers GM2 +250 1st scoring play - Any other
Here is the result:
92019818
10/10/11 5:10pm
Wager Refund 92006762-2
$200.00 $500.00
Cancelled
10/10/11 4:10pm
Baseball MLB Tigers vs Rangers GM2
+250 1st scoring play - Any other
Here is my Chat with a rep:
You are now chatting with 'Selma'
Selma: Hello. How may I assist you today?
Me: I have a question regarding a wager i made
Selma: yes
Me: Trans#92019818
Selma: Can you please confirm your account number and password?
Me: 5D*******
Me: ******
Selma: Trans#92019818?
Me: yes
Me: it should be a win. i am not sure why it was cancelled and refunded
Selma: Let me check your account, just a moment please
Selma: I believe it was our mistake
Me: ok
Selma: it was a bad line
Me: will i be credited for the win?
Selma: no sir
Selma: Just a moment please
Selma: no sir the game was postpone
Selma: it is been play today now
Me: yes
Me: and i put in the bet today
Me: but it was cancelled an hour after the game started
Me: then it was cancelled
Me: after i won the wager
Selma: Just a moment please
Selma: Wagering is checking it
Me: Is Wagering still checking?
Me: Hello?
Selma: Ok, sir it seams
Selma: you took a bad line
Selma: you took them at +250
Selma: and the line should have been -250
Selma: so that is why it was no action
Selma: : as it sates in our web site
Selma: 5Dimes reserves the right to correct grading errors at any time. Incorrect payouts due to grading/software error and any additional earnings from those payouts are subject to voiding/forfeiture.
Selma: If a player believes that 5Dimes has posted an erroneous line, or time error, the player should notify 5Dimes immediately to verify if the line/time is correct
Me: but why was it cancelled after I won?
Me: I didn't know that it was a bad line. This is the first time I played it. I just joined a few weeks ago
Me: Can I at least get the -250 line for my 200?
Me: since my wager was cancelled after it won
Selma: Because they didn't realize until then
Selma: any way it was a bad line
Selma: and as state in our web site
Selma: we don't pay bad lines
Selma: we pay when it is a fair play
Me: so there is nothing you can do?
Selma: no sir
Selma: it is manager's discretion
Me: ok
Selma: Is there anything else I can assist you with?
Me: no
Selma: Have a great day!
This has left a bad taste in my mouth even though it wasn't much. They could have given me the win with the corrected line OR let me know before I won the wager. Just doesn't feel right :shrug:
Thanks for reading,
Sean
