What gives 5dimes the right!?!!
So I went on a tear and proceeded to turn 250.00 into a little over 13k mainly betting college and nba. I go to check my balance today and it shows Zero. I then proceed to call 5Dimes customer service and before I even had a chance to explain everything I was transferred over to some asshole named Tony. He proceeded to accuse me of the following.. 1. Chasing Steam 2. Betting plays after the event has started 3. Using a betting system He explained \"How dare you come to my book and think you can cheat me out of my money\" At this point I was apalled and mentioned that I did not cheat and I had this account dating back to November and suddenly now when I have a rather large balance he sees a problem. I proceed to ask \"just pay me my money and I will quit playing with your book\" He then threatened me by saying \"You are lucky you are able to talk to me, People who cheat me usually don\'t get a phone call they are lucky to be able to walk and tell others the stories about people who took a shot at my book\" This asshole actually threatened my family by telling me and I quote \"If you think you can cheat me I have your address and maybe your wife would like it If I have her cheat on you with me\" At this point the conversation ended with Tony telling me to go to hell and when i mentioned I knew of SBR he said \"Go cry to the forums and SBR.. nobody cheats me.. and people will still play with me and pump money into my book... so go **** yourself\" and he hung up. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU 5DIMES? SBR.. what can I do?

Tony's an asshole, that's a factComment -
Now this is a good 5 pennies thread. With quotes from tony. I am going to enjoy this one.Comment -
If this is true - this is
"I have never seen a wild thing feel sorry for itself. A little bird will fall dead, frozen from a bough, without ever having felt sorry for itself."

WOW, can't believe that would actually happen.Comment -
feel like this dude is a huge douchebag...hope SBR does something about this.Comment -
General rule here is to be suspicious of someone whos first post is claiming foul against an A+ book.
Who cares if Tony acts like an asshole sometimes (he says fuc.k alot - I know) 5Dimes is solid.Comment -

67pts for you if you post the chat logComment -
This is a mockery of the old 5dimes thread, i dont buy it.Comment -
Had I known ahead of time this would be my experience i would have recorded the call or done something. I will try to see if he will talk to me via chat. Richboy- Think what you will.. right now I don\'t care about what people think, I am just wondering who the hell this guy thinks he is. I have never in my 37 years on this planet had someone talk to me like Tony. I have NEVER had customer service this bad. I mean I don\'t even know if he is capable of these threats... talking about people being lucky to walk away and tell stories. In all seriousness, this is a LOT of money to me and I would like to get paid like I should be paid, does anyone know who from management i can talk to or anything?Comment -
Try sending the mods a PM. I would hit up Justin7 or Dozer with this info.Originally posted by Dark HorseComment -
A few questions first:
Were you past posting on purpose?
What system were you using?Comment -
Let SBR talk with 5dimes and find out if this is real. If everything is legit i bet you will be paid.Comment -
The accusations of considering bangin' your wife is a new low for Tony. You must have really done somethin' to piss him off.Comment -
I have had my limits lowered at 5d.
I really didnt get it, because I never play for more than $500Comment -
I was not past posting on purpose on a few games that started at 7pm or 9pm I think 3-6 in the past 4 months were posted around 3-4 mins after tip, HOWEVER I was not paying attention at the time and it was not intentional. I used a website and tailed jimmy boyd.. probably a waste of money but I wanted to see what I could do so a few of my friends and I purchased a pass. In regards to Tony saying what he did about my wife.. should I call the cops? I mean is this guy harmless or is he someone who could follow through on threats? I really want to be paid but I love my family and don\'t want any harm to come to them and 13k is a lot to me but not worth my family being hurt. I really seriously walked away from that conversation worried... I can\'t get this off my mind.Comment -
turning 250 into 13k would piss alot of books of im sure. hope you get your money. Tony must be a real Azzhole if he really said that shite. File a complaint with Sbr, I'm sure they will help settle this with you and 5 dimes.Last edited by pitman; 02-26-10, 07:42 PM.Comment -
He just wanted to scare you and to give up most likely. by the sounds of it it has worked. don't go down without a fight.Comment -
Hey Tony if finding "steam" and chasing it was so easy wouldn't we all do the following. Tony if you ever talked to me this way about my family, and or my wife etc after I shredded your book for 13 k. I would do anything and everything in my power to find you and force you to take everything back said while holding a 45 to your prick. (Hold me to it pal) You just lost a customer, too bad for you and your book you manage, because I have dumped close to 20 k their and you will never have the luxury of my services at your book.

Strange, I would figure he would pay you and kick you out. Not stiff and threaten you. Are we missing something here?Comment -
Past posting won't get you paid.Comment
