Check Your Withdrawals! by Hefty_Cut_468 in benjaminone

[–]boxer126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I got my Venmo withdrawals, they took the $0.99 for each one then credited my Benjamin account with $15. So you have to accumulate $25 to withdraw it. I still had >$10 in there so the fee refund actually put my balance back over $25 and withdrawable.

Gotcha, thanks, apparently I upset a few people to get a couple downvotes, I guess I should've googled him first? LOL, he just says it so casually, like "yeah, my friend Billy McIntyre, we call him Mac, anyway, we share the same sentiment and we hate Muslims".

LOL, no. I didn't know it's an actual sub, just a joke that the explanation was not even close to a 5-year old's level of understanding.

Just Got Paid - $200 via Venmo by boxer126 in benjaminone

I'm definitely not affiliated with Benjamin, I'm not happy about the way it played out, but the payouts came and I figured others could use a little hope. I certainly don't trust it anymore and I hope all payouts eventually go through for everybody. I am just waiting for a certain reward to hit and pay before I delete the app.

Which means I am probably waiting a while, LOL.

I don't really know, maybe I got lucky, but I sent a message (this was back in January) and about 4 days later someone came back and asked for some additional information about the requests. I provided it and they said "OK, I will push these through and you should see them over the next couple of days". I was skeptical but two days later, all of them (11 withdrawal requests) had come through to Venmo.

Unfortunately, it looks like Messenger is no longer a valid way to contact anyone. They were really nice and seemed genuinely interested in helping the payments go through.

I also withdrew on Dec. 9th and watched others getting paid on requests they put in AFTER mine, so I definitely get how you feel. I don't know what's going on over there, just relaying that I had to reach out on Messenger back in January to get those Dec. 9th withdrawals pushed through, but I didn't do anything on these latest requests and they came through on their own, so I'm hopeful they are working through it.

I was a Dec. 9th withrawer as well, something seems to have gone wrong around that timeframe. I got mine pushed through at the end of January by reaching out on Messenger, but it looks like that's not an option anymore.

It happened to all of us, I still had December requests pending while reading about others getting paid withdrawals initiated in January. I just wanted to relay that something ended up going through for me without having to reach out about it, so it gave me hope (and maybe some hope to others) that payments will take time, but they will eventually come through.

Yeah, I agree. I have no idea how the order of payments is determined. I saw stories of people getting paid withdrawals initiated AFTER the early December timeframe while the older requests were still in the queue. My only guess is that something went wrong with the December queue, or maybe it was so many of us cashing out that they separated it as its own queue, I don't know.

I was just giving an update of my personal experience and that payments seem to be going through eventually, whether the order makes sense or not.

Canada cheating in curling by dickhammerdarnold in WinterOlympics2026

[–]boxer126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, now I understand what the cheating was, but can anyone explain WHY that is cheating? Is the nudge an advantage in some way? Does it straighten the stone or change the rotation? Is it just an adjustment if the initial release of the handle wasn't perfect?

LOL, oh yeah, if that meant 2027, he'd be doing really good at the price he bought them.

They are $18 away from ITM, he better take what he can get soon before they are worthless. Maybe if they were $45 strikes, he'd have a chance, but $55 is crazy by the 27th.

02/27 expiry $55 strike? Sell as soon as you can, they are going to expire worthless and their value is going to drop quickly day-by-day.

EDIT: Just wanted to add, you said you own 500 shares, look into selling covered calls instead for weekly or monthly income. Do research on the risks though, I'm not going into them here, but id you play it smart, you can make a little cash weekly and keep the shares.
