    I'm waiting for them to verify my identity, so I can put some coin down for tonight's game. Broncos and the under

    It took two days, but I finally got in. Missed the Thursday night game, but I would have only gone 3-2 anyway so nothing lost.

    It's horrendous. I think they are running about a 50% success rate in people being able to sign up. All kinds of glitches. Thousands of dollars down the drain but this is expected from Oregon government.

    Shocking

    Why massive projects don’t do pilot rollouts to select groups to iron out these issues before go live will always baffle me

    Let’s see. Long ago, like in the ‘90’s, the State of Oregon put up almost $200 mill on a new software system for DMV that was never implemented.

    A few years back they paid Oracle around $300 million for Cover Oregon, which was supposed to be the state exchange website to sign up for Obamacare. They actually tried to get this up and running, but it fell on its face and was scrapped.

    Turned out you could just sign up on the federal site all along and it was really never needed.

    The poont is that besides all of that fuckery, the State of Oregon has also had massive data breaches in the last few months.


    I’m gonna go ahead and give it until next year until I trust the State of Oregon with custody of one of my bank accounts. It sucks but it’s the only sane move as far as I’m concerned.

    They said they did. If so it was a very small group. I finally got signed up but it was embarrassingly bad. Kate Brown can just go away, the sooner the better.

    I'm going credit card. No way I give them access to my bank. At least my credit card will flag out of lane transactions.

    instead of managing their money better the state resorts to this?

    Resorts? Everyone is legalizing sports gambling. As they should. Keep the money in the states instead of going to the Caribbean via shady online books.

    They did it to try to put a dent in the public employee pension liability.

    The fraud in that is that it was supposed to go the schools.

    State of Washington tech > State of Oregon tech

    Put that on the list of >'s for next year when those fuckheads need to be reminded which is the more superior State in this fine Union.

    Pump my gas, ducks.

    I can bet on sports with my I-phone, you losers need to drive to an Indian casino to make a wager and collect your money. Oregon wins rather easily on this one.

    Oh no, the Chinese could potentially have access to my credit card which has fraud protection. This is just the worst...

    Experian already let loose of all of our social security numbers, so we are all pretty much fucked anyways.

    Have fun making the drive to the casino to make your picks. On the bright side, you never have to make the return trip to cash in, because we all know that losers lose.

    This exactly. Anyone worrying about their personal info being stolen at this point is a fucking boomer. For $10 you can buy anyone's PII on the dark web.

    I will agree with haie to a certain degree. Anybody dumb enough to use or store their debit card or checking account information with their system deserves to have their money stolen.

    Anyone using checking/debit cards anywhere is dumb. Use CCs everywhere, way better consumer protections and it's your credit (not your actual cash) on hold while they investigate fraud.
