Just been nosing at their accounts. Was surprised to see just how big they have become.

They're a brilliant bookmaker

The range of bets available, especially 'in play' is impressive, they rarely baulk at a big bet, and are very quick with payouts, even when they are big

Their prices are also very competitve, I couldn't speak highly enough of them. I've had some serious run ins with Hills, and 365 piss all over them in terms of quality of company

I Have to say my experiances with 365 are very diffrent to the above, but then perhaps they have changed there tune in the last few years or so since ive used them.

I notice this lot have lifted their draconian restriction on me. :o To what extent I do not know yet but I will slowly find out. I kept 31 pence in account just for the streams they have esp cricket ones & yesterday I noticed their bet max was not there. Since early 2017 they were not letting me win more than a fiver on the dogs.

I used to do really well on Bet 365, mostly with supposed mug bets like each way doubles and trebles across the TV races on a Saturday when they'd have best odds guaranteed, 1/4 odds all races and guaranteed best early price match and extra places. Happy days they were, backing 8/1 shots each way in 16 runner handicaps with 5 places when they were 7/1 on Betfair. I recall stringing together some decent winning trebles for four figure returns on more than one occasion.

Got away with it for years until they stopped me. Haven't been back since and would be surprised if I was now unrestricted again (I didn't even know that was a thing) but guess it's worth a look.

They must be doing well, I remember a couple of years ago the chief exec was in the news for earning £265 mil in salary and bonus.

they removed the max button about a month ago, around the same time that a mb subscription site released a bot that exploited eachway thievery. killed the paid for bot very quickly :D
so it may be that there merely is no max bet button and not that you are ungubbed. hope im wrong, gl

I tested it with a tenner once today on a 2.5 priced dog.............hitherto they would only have allowed 3.33 to win a fiver at 2.5

I'll creep up slowly in staking using dogs & yank nags which btw is where the arbs are in my experience.

I thought bookmakers unversally do not accept winners. They ban them or recruit them.

Actually they have not! :cry:


That would have been a nice arb too as the dog went odds on.

That was all too good to be true. I used to enjoy arbing US racing but I never looked at the dogs. Too late now. :(

Had a quick look at the time and looked like an easy way to get your accounts gubbed
