  • Problems with WSEX

    I recently encountered a minor problem at WSEX and would appreciate any feedback.

    I opened my account last week so that I could play both the sportsbook and poker. I deposited $500, instantly worked that up to $4500, and now I am back to about $1000. The problem came when I tried to transfer funds from the sportsbook to the poker room. I had $41 in the poker room at the time and attempted to transfer $500 from the sportsbook. Well, not only was the transfer not posted, but my original poker balance of $41 disappeared ! I called WSEX and to make a long story short, they said it was a glitch and that everything would be worked out. Well, after numerous phone calls, everything was restored. However, it did take 3 days and I did have to spend over $50 calling them overseas(which, I found out later was my mistake for not noticing they had a toll free number) I politely asked to be compensated for my troubles once everything was resolved. The supervisor Kiki seemed shocked I would ask for anything, but checked it over with a fellow named Shawn and got back to me today with an offer of $20. Well, needless to say, I was not happy with this figure. I called Kiki and she asked how much I thought was fair. I told her she probably did not want to know what I thought was fair since it was so far away from $20, but I said that in all fairness, $100 would smooth things over nicely. She laughs at this figure and basically says take the $20 or nothing. At this point, another supervisor (Robert I think was his name) comes on the phone and reiterates $20 or nothing. I told him I thought $20 was an insult and a slap in the face and that they could keep the $20. He snaps and tells me that WSEX no longer wants my business and asks me where I want the funds sent. Eventually he calmed down and left my account open. He tells me that the $20 is now off the table. I told him fine, I don't want to argue anymore.

    I really liked this book prior to this incident, but now I am starting to 2nd guess their credibility. Should I cash out now and save myself from future headaches, or was this a one time isolated incident? I guess I'm still steamed from the fact I had to pay over $50 in phone charges and now I have diddly squat to show for it.

    Any feedback would be appreciated.


    Thanks,

    Andy

    update

    I was able to talk to a manager named Sean who agreed to pay for the phone charges and gave me a $50 bonus. It was amazing how different he was from the other supervisors I talked to earlier. I guess maybe I was just talking to the wrong people. I obviously feel much better about WSEX now that I'm not out money. Hopefully, this will answer my own question and prove to be a one time isolated incident.

      This doesn't sound too surprising. Although I can say that the long distance phone charges aren't really their responsibility because you didn't see the toll free number. You could have asked on call number one for the toll free to alleviate that one.

      The rudeness is unnecessary though. Most books look at all their players as scammers and they should all be treated with suspicion.
