Thanks MJ, I just read about one myself somewhere else. That is a big company too so it's really surprising to hear that. Can't wait to see how everything pans out.

Milkman, welcome. Sorry that potential bad news brought you into the mix. I hope that this will break the ice though for future posts.

Can't speak for MJ or what he is dealing with but this is my knowledge of a pending problem. This is a post from somewhere else stating his problem with them. Unsubstantiated at this point at best so take it for what it's worth. If there is anything else to report I will certainly follow-up!

Again though, welcome!

---------------------------------

I would like to warn everyone that WorldWager is a bad place to be...
I talked to a girl named Rose today and she was processing a card of mine that has been cancelled(for month's) and is telling me I ow her this money... They have $1909.00 in my account. I can't touch a penny of it. According to them I ow them $1500 cause of my card that does not work with them. I told them to take the 1500 out and leave me the change. So they think they can try to charge my card another 500!!?. why)? I don't know. I wish they would just give me my money and leave it like that.. I gave Grand Central sports crap about them but Atleast they don't go off charging my credit card out of the blue without my permission..!!

I don't like the idea that they our going to bill people's credit cards for $25 to be taken off there mailing list.. Kinda fishy if you ask me.

fyi... my main account is with GCS and I received the message from them yesterday that they are now under the JAZZ Corp. umbrella.. So what does that mean?? Not quite sure, but I requested a payout by FedEx on 5/2 and still haven't received. Today they said all payouts are being processed today and tomorrow by Western Union and I need to call back on Wed for a control number.

I'll keep you posted....

This deal has been in the works for a while. Basically what this means is that GCS is still an operating sports book but all the financial obligations will be fulfilled by Jazz. Kinda like buying out your store but still letting you be the manager.

You money is a lot safer now then it has been in months. You should be able to get your money now without a problem. Before when people were getting slow-payed or the run around was because there really was no money. Now I suspect this will no longer be happened and everyone should be payed in a timely manner. If you run into any trouble let me know and I will talk to some people for you!

A quick note about the "not spam" warning.
We put that in there because we used to have scores of people that are too f*cking lazy to set
their preferences in their WW account to not receive promotional emails from us.
Instead, these a**holes would just forward the message on to their ISP (like AOL) who's idiotic
tech people would immediately blacklist our servers instead of taking the time to investigate the message
and discover that it is indeed not spam.

This causes major problems with our other customers who like to receive emails from us. (such as wager and
deposit confirmations, etc) We have over 2,100 customers at AOL alone and last time they blocked our mail to
every one of those players all because an idiot customer complained that he got an email from us. (the company
he PAID to have service from).

We don't send out unsolicited (spam) emails to non-customers. From time to time we send emails to our
customers with the latest news and offerings. There is even a setting in your account to turn this off.

I really cannot stand idiotic people in this world.

As for AK..., the rules on our site specifically state that WE DON'T GIVE CREDIT!!!
From time to time, we may make exceptions and give players a chance to bring their account
back into good standing by making a good payment (and even allow them to keep their winning wagers
which where made "on credit".)

However, we never charge your card unless YOU specifically make a deposit, so cut the crap, open your eyes,
realize the true situation, and take responsibility for what you have done.

Ak was the original poster of this complaint for those of you that don't know.

Thanks to WorldWager for coming in and giving us the other side of the story. Your welcome here anytime!
