What all do you have to do to withdraw from FanDuel? Or is draft kings better? Love fantasy football, so I’m wanting to start putting a little money on it, but wanna know how easy it is to withdraw, and what the best route to go is. Normally just play with a big group of friends.

I assume fanduel allows you to use a PayPal account for deposit and withdrawals like draftkings. Very simple to use.

I honest to god was told I was not allowed to with draw funds because they were deposited to play and they wanted me to enjoy the experience longer than 2 weeks

I went 0-5, but originally deposited $200 and had $150 left and hated it.

I still have the email and the email that I sent threatening to get a lawyer.

Hello,



Not sure why my withdraw request was denied but I will not use this site and want my money back. How do I go about it?



Thank you

DraftKings just sends a check. I won $100+ twice last year during football and that's what I got.

In response to the withdrawal denial, did you get a deposit bonus? They usually will deny you withdrawing that until you have bet more in sum than your original deposit + the deposit bonus. So if you deposited $150 and got a $50 deposit bonus they would only allow you to withdraw your account balance -$50 until you had bet a total of $200 on contests.

That does make sense

No. But anytime you take the bonus, there's usually a requirement that you have to roll that amount like 10x. You're more likely to lose all your money before you can do that. Whereby never seeing that money ever again.

I've used Draft Kings weekly for over 2 years. Use PayPal to deposit money and withdraw directly to PayPal.

It honestly couldn't be easier and hate seeing you have those issues.

Yes they gave me a bonus, I originally deposited $200 which got me $200 more.

I lost 5x in a row and honestly hated it. Didn’t want the bonus just my $150 of my money that was left.

Rigged no, but there are people that study algorithm’s and play multiple games and receive the majority portion of winnings.

Study it, it’s true

I’m gonna have to check this out. As I’ve put a lot of money out there for nascar on DK, and had 5 of 6 cars finish top 10, only to not win a dime

Check out the DFS Army. I'm a member there and have members who win big every day it seems like.

It’s not rigged, but it can feel that way if you don’t know what you’re doing. Do your research and figure out which contests to play and which to avoid. Steer clear of the sharks. For example, the millionaire maker and other big tournaments. The sharks put 150 entries into those, so casual players have little to no chance.

I’ve started entering the smaller pay outs and have seemed to fair a little better. Not won big but coming out ahead on winnings. Learning I guess. And that’s for the advice from the one above me. It’s helped
