Just seen their results, impressive.
Total stakes £19.5bn, op profit £176.8m
2,600 staff, £430m in cash reserves and it takes more online bets than WH and Ladbrokes combined!
Bet365
Excellent company in my experience
Their range of bets and markets is immense, superb 'in play' coverage, and have never baulked at me placing a large order
I once won a fairly large amount of money on an ante-post football bet - the money was in my account within minutes and there was never any hint of closing me down
I'm sure others will tell a different tale, but i don't think it's a coincidence they are ripping shreds of Hills, because in comparison they are a truly shit betting experience

Yeah nice profit, it just shows you how many people gamble in this country many of which have major problems with it! i'm in it totally to try and make a profit thats why i stay away from major bookies theres just no edge to make a profit from them and if you did they would close your account down!!!! win-win for them.

There are couple of points mentioned above as to why they do good by Le Tiss, such as they dont scare away customers. But the majority of the profits don't come from the type of punters that would use them for arbs I would imagine and come from genuine punters.
As Ive been out of the UK for quite a while apart from hols, I dont really know what they do. How do they market themselves? As far as i understand its just online. I dont even know if they are on the high street. Do they market aggressively on TV, at sports events etc.... Just curious really.

They do a massive £200 sign up bonus, 4/1 offer in the horses, regular reload bonuses and free inplay bets. Lots of advertisement on the football and some on channel 4, I use them as you can put big bets on with no limiting unless its obvious you are taking arbs.
I have to say from my experience 365 are no different to the rest of them, absolutely hopeless

So No wonder they are making such big profits.
The only reason i ever use a bookie's is if they offer better odds on something, but this also happens to be the quickest way to get restricted, the other being by winning
