Bodog

[arardor]

I deposited X amount of dollars into my bodog account. They accepted it and I was free to play. They then sent me an email saying that the instant check option is not going to be done anymore and they are taking the money out of my account which could leave you with a negative balance.

What legs do I have to stand on in regards to this?

Do I have to go out of my way to find a solution they feel will work?

Am I responsible if they decide after the fact to tell me they can't deposit in this fashion?

[arardor]

The key to this is that I lost the money so the account now shows negative.

str8 freerollin, i guess i wouldn't worry about it if i were u. i mean there really is nothing they can do about it, and it's very inconvenient for u to do anything about it.

presumably, the money is back in your checking account...?

[arardor]

Here is the email I got after the fact.

I don't think anybody bad will happen to you if if you just ignore them forever...

The issue really is if you feel comfortable with stealing or not.
