Wonders to himself why Mr. 2 posts in 9 years didn't pose his question in one of the many existing "DRF Contest" threads...

Email them and ask...I jest not....theses folks just have a habit of not responding...or no one is responsible for follow ups to clients ...or former clients that still have credits to use...DRF should just host a major online tournament a few times a year ...and besides, the spent a lot of dollars renovating thier site which is really good...and thus , the incomes are not keeping up with the wages of staff and over head...Brisnet did the same some what in recent memory ....

I won a few contests and looked forward to thier two or even three free contests each week as well...it kept myself engaged a bit deeper in the pps and research etc...they did show a great deal of intrrest in stimulating horse racing in general and helped up grade many a tracks income via this ...

Has anyone received their money back from DRF tourneys after the notice to withdraw funds? Nada yet for me and it was 9 days ago. DRF Bets was much quicker getting me money on withdrawals in the past.

No refund yet
I was just about to pose the same question. I filled out the form requesting a refund and got an email confirming they received the request, but no check has arrived.

I wonder how deep their problems really go. I requested a balance refund on May 8 and when I emailed today the response was "checks will BEGIN to go out on Friday.

yea, thats an embarrassment. They had no problem taking the money but suddenly an issue giving back.
Glad its only a few bucks for me, would be really irritated if it was real money.

What exactly are you talking about here? HorseTourneys and HorsePlayers are the only sites that are awarding seats to major tournaments and are doing just fine. And HorseTourneys has been paying customers just fine ever since they began offering cash contests about five years ago.
