Hi everyone, is anyone interested in helping me transfer some funds to my Neteller account? I am more than happy to provide a fee for the assistance... please send me a private message if you can help out!

I noticed some sportsbooks offer deposits and withdrawals via PayPal! I guess I'm wondering if that actually works smoothly here in the States—has anyone here had any experience with it?

Man, you really gotta check their specific site terms for PayPal... they usually put all sorts of restrictions on P.P. deposits—it’s not available everywhere, it only works for certain states or regions if they decide to approve you...🤷

Hey everyone,
I've got a question and I'm hoping someone here can shed some light on it.
Basically, back last year, I deposited xxx into my DraftKings account. I used my checking account via debit card and set the betting currency to USD.
Over time, that balance grew quite a bit. As usually happens, they slapped some restrictions on my account, so it’s not really worth playing there anymore.
Now I want to get that money out. The total is xxxx USD.
DraftKings only gives me the option to send the funds back to the original payment method, so I'm assuming it's too late to use Venmo or other options...
What kind of fallout am I looking at if I withdraw this amount back to my bank account under current laws and terms?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I have a question and am hoping someone might be able to shed some light on it.
To give you some context, last year I deposited an amount of xxx (I used USD as my betting currency via a debit card from my checking account) into DraftKings.
Over time, that balance has grown significantly, and as often happens, they’ve slapped me with restrictions, making it no longer worth my while to play there.
Now, I want to transfer those funds back to my bank account. The total is xxxx USD.
DraftKings only offers the option to return the money to the original source of the deposit, so I assume it's too late to use Venmo or other methods...
What would the implications be if I withdraw this amount to my checking account under current laws and terms?
Does anyone have any advice that might assist me?
Best regards,
- Open a Venmo or Neteller account, deposit a small amount from one of them into DraftKings, and then withdraw everything. Pull the cash out using their Mastercard.

placidmason0 said:Hey everyone,
I’ve got a bit of a situation here and was hoping someone might have some insight.
Basically, back last year, I deposited a certain amount—I used USD as my account currency—into DraftKings via my checking account using a debit card.
Over time, that balance grew quite a bit, and as usually happens when you actually win, they slapped me with some restrictions, making it pretty much pointless to keep playing there.
So now, I want to get my money out. We're talking about an xxxx balance in dollars.
The issue is that DraftKings only offers to send the funds back to the original payment method, so I'm assuming it's too late to use Venmo or any other alternative options...
What kind of fallout am I looking at if I withdraw this amount back to my checking account under current laws and terms?
Any advice or wisdom you could share would be greatly appreciated.
Best,
I don't think it has anything to do with our domestic tax laws—since the winnings were generated in another country, the IRS isn't going to come knocking on your door just because you moved your own money. As for the transfer itself, keep in mind that Venmo often has limits for new users; I'm not sure how much cash we're discussing here, but you'd likely be capped at maybe $1,000 initially. Plus, if you try to use their Mastercard, you'll hit those daily ATM limits—say, $250—not to mention the withdrawal fees and conversion hits, whereas you can spend up to $1,000 a day at a store. My suggestion? Go to your bank, open a dedicated US dollar savings account, deposit a small amount—maybe $10, or whatever the minimum deposit requirement is for DraftKings—and then request the refund be sent specifically to that USD account. That should be your most cost-effective move with the least amount of friction and fees.

That won't fly with them. Here’s how it actually works:
"Where possible, all withdrawals will be processed to the payment account from which the deposits have been made. If you have funded your account using multiple payment types, we are required to process your withdrawal request proportionally between the methods you have used to deposit with."

What are your thoughts on this: http://help.marathonbet.com/en/bonus...ot_EN_glossary
Seems like a decent enough idea. 😁

It actually looks like a pretty solid idea! 😁
😁 Wait, when did they roll that out?
I haven't messed with them in a while—do they still hit you with those quick limits?
Arbitrage hunters 😁 offer great limits right out of the gate, though they unfortunately don't last very long.
As far as payouts go, even Penn National Gaming can't touch them here.

Haven't used them in a while—do they still hit you with fast limits?
Arbitrage hunters😁 have great limits at first, though they rarely last long.
As far as payouts go, even Penn National Gaming can hold its own here.
No clue—I just got an email notification about it a few days ago.
They haven't limited me, though I have to admit I'm betting much less than I used to. Most of my action is on the NBA anyway, so I haven't noticed any changes to my max stakes.

They move at lightning speed. Just place a few singles or parlays where you're grabbing the best odds on the market—doesn't even have to be an arb, by the way—and boom: you're capped at 5%. It doesn't even matter if you're up or down with them. For certain sports, like the NBA, their limits actually stay pretty high even after they slash your account limits, but for tennis, basketball, or handball? You're basically dead in the water...

I highly doubt that would work. It isn't quite that simple... I dealt with a similar situation once and had to fight them tooth and nail, though I did eventually manage to get everything withdrawn to my Neteller account.

swiftlynx34 said:Yeah, fat chance of that... it doesn't work that way at all. I dealt with something pretty similar once and spent forever fighting with them just to get my money, but eventually, I managed to pull everything out through Skrill...
So what's the actual issue with withdrawing directly to a checking account?
Why does it have to go through Skrill...

Quick question for the group. Is it possible to open a new account at DraftKings using the exact same name, address, and personal details as my current one? Basically, can I run two accounts with identical information? Thanks.

I suspect that is not permitted, because if they allowed such things, their ability to impose account limits would be entirely undermined.
#1679 ·
I'm afraid that simply isn't an option, as maintaining multiple accounts is strictly against the rules here!

Does anyone happen to know how Unibet handles tennis retirements? I'm looking at a match where two sets have already been played out and the score stands at 1-1 in sets. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
