5Dimes is going down the tubes!

**Shifty** · 07-25-19, 09:31 AM

5 Dimes does suck for Bitcoin deposits. They wait for 6 confirmations before you get credited. They should take Ether which can get confirmed in 5 minutes.

That is not correct.

Deposited a few days ago and was credited to my account ready to bet 13 mins after I had paid for it on my exchange. With 1 confirmation.

Pretty much the same experience every time I have deposited.

If you choose to send with an extremely low fee maybe it will take longer. But never taken more than 20-30 mins maximum for me.

an hour tops for deposits there for me,never longer

Bitcoin deposits are mostly based on bitcoin traffic and how quickly someone can confirm the transaction. Moral of the story is 5dimes is pushing people to become bitcoin exclusive yet can't control how quickly a deposit is pushed through.

Depositing on a Tuesday when bitcoin is worth 7K and hasn't really fluctuated in months is a lot different than depositing when bitcoin has had a 40% increase in 2 days and everyone is trading.

Don't push people towards something they can't control the speed of and we all know 13 minutes and hour 2 hours whatever it may be is still slower than a CC.

5Dimes was down again for me this morning. Ran it on a test and it was down across the web for everyone. Its still been moving extremely slow I almost missed placing a bet on the Nationals game took me 9 mins to finally get it to go through.

Maybe my expectations of the #1 Rated Sports book are too high. Sigh oh well.

5Dimes is an offshore sports book. That is all you need to know. None of them are worth a crap.

You can control the speed of the bitcoin transaction, right?

You can pay a higher fee. Which will allow your transaction to be confirmed faster. But its all dependent on the volume of bitcoin being traded.

Example in 2017 when bitcoin blew up and litecoin blew up and went from $40 to $400 in a week transactions at that point were taking almost 12 hours to confirm because EVERYONE was trading therefore the queue was SO long.

Thats why I say its dependent on how busy bitcoin trading is.

Bitcoin trading in the last month has been higher than it has in the past 11 combined due to it making a run. Therefore your AVG transaction is taking longer regardless of the fee.

Most people deposit because they want to bet on an upcoming game. If bitcoin traffic is through the roof and you deposit it "could" depending on bitcoin traffic trading in general take up to 4 hours.

Taking 4 hours for a deposit to go through is the difference between Placing the bet and winning and not getting to place the bet.

I had a buddy today tell me 5dimes live engine wouldn't load and therefore he couldn't place bets. Then he wanted to get in on the over 8.5 in the Nats game and he couldn't even log in.

Shit gets old and adds up after a while.

**Ant23** · 07-25-19, 08:56 PM

Slowbalt if only they had taken a little longer you wouldn't have lost the Nats game

SBR brings in some of the craziest complaints.......1 guy says he lost $$$ b/c book was "shorting" him on Bitcoin payouts........next guy can't understand why a book won't let him have MULTIPLE accounts......next guy is upset b/c his $11 wager on a fight was returned due to a draw........& on & on & on.......these folks will drive a mofo 2 drink!!!! Sheesh!!!

I bet the over 8.5 now shut the hell up and go back into your hole.

I love a loser that comes in here and talks shit knowing NOTHING about anything. Where did I say I bet on the Nationals Money Line? Where did it say I bet on the Nationals Run Line? Where did I say I bet on the Washington Nationals at all. I stated the "Nationals Game" keep ASSUMING and don't quit your day job because you suck at being a detective and calling people out. #Bum

My last couple deposits took 2-3 hours to get 6 confirmations. I guess sometimes it's just bad timing. Had one instance where Bitcoin dropped 5% while waiting for confirmations. Ether blows away Bitcoin for speed. 5 Dimes should have alternatives to Bitcoin.

5dimes has been down for last few hours for me ( failed connection ), but when i check with pingdom, it still works ???

**JaimeMiro** · 07-26-19, 07:17 AM

It has been reported.

The site is working fine here and for a few countries we've tested. Anyone who still can't get in can write in to help@sportsbookreview.com with your account ID.

**BigdaddyQH** · 07-26-19, 11:57 AM

Two days ago, all the 800 numbers world wide were knocked out. Interesting. It matters not. In 5 years from now there will be no more offshore wagering in the U.S. The Feds will make sure they get their cut of anyone's winnings, one way or another. That means no more off shore wagering. For yo guys who are dumb enough to think and you can out think the Feds, you have ZERO chance. Start looking NOW for a US account that you like.

**TheMoneyShot** · 07-26-19, 01:22 PM

Just wait til College Football on Saturdays when the website literally crashes at 8:50 AM Pacific.... 11:50 AM Eastern. And it lasts for about 15 minutes... You'll be DAMN LUCKY if you can get a wager in. Always happens. Are they ever going to fix this?

**ATC727** · 07-26-19, 02:40 PM

I do agree to allmlf this! Especially the bitcoin deposits that always take 30min +.

We are talking about deposits LOL.

I never had issues with Bovada and so much more of like selections. Deposits never take more than 3-5 mins.

There is a lot of invalid complaining on SBR but I think Slowbalt has a valid case here. My experience with 5dimes has been a C+ at best. Among other things they issue bonuses only as you are placing bets. I don't know any other site that does this. Very annoying. I would much rather wager at BOL and BM.

**Frank** · 07-26-19, 06:59 PM

5dimes used to be the best for props.

They have now switched to 40 cent lines on strikeouts.....most juiced book in the industry.

Perhaps a small deposit. All of my deposits take 6-8 confirmations before being credited and has been that way for the last year.

So he is correct.

You might be right about larger deposits. My limits are small so haven't deposited more than 300 in a long time.

It’s kind of an unfair comparison. Bovada credits your account with a requirement of zero confirmations, which is definitely not standard. 5Dimes, requires only one confirmation, which is standard. Yes, of course, Bovada is better. But they’re also the absolute best in this department, which doesn’t necessarily make 5Dimes bad. If those who require one confirmation are too slow for your liking, you always have the option of paying a larger fee.

Your first post was a $400 Cashout in a check form from Bovada which shows A) You are rookie betting with a trash recreational offshore book because you don't know your ass from a hole in the wall and B) You cashed $400 WHAT A BIG CASHOUT!

Then I read a few threads up and you are too penetrating stupid to learn how to use bitcoin which is even funnier. Yet you are sitting here talking trash. You are such a loser all I need to do is keep reading all your posts.

Who cares if he wants to use bitcoin or not? Every point he made is valid and I’ve been on 5D for a very long time. Bovada is much much better. Deposits are instant and their line selection is much larger.

5D continues to cause delays in withdrawals and the run around. Just an awful book. I probably will never play there again unless I get limited on others.
