Betfair - it's a no brainer. The prices are almost always better.

I'm not so sure about that, even Betfair don't really make that claim anymore. And by the time they take their cut there's not much difference.

Hi,

I'm dealing with Circus Casino and want to withdraw money via bank transfer. Genting Alderney are the operators
They're asking me for
bank statement
photo ID
and photocopy of front and back of bank card.

Is this normal?
cheers,
Patrick

dinneenp · 18-11-2009 11:43am

update on above.
I provided the info and got the withdrawl.
I phoned them and they said I could blank out middle digits of card....

For horse racing betting I find thetote.com very good.
It's the site of Tote Ireland and very good for irish and uk racing - placepot and jackpot are two bets well worth looking at

Interesting betting blog based on speed ratings for A/W and handicaps.

signed up to the new indos website

http://www.betpack.com/

free bet for 25 on site but if you use this code <SNIP> you get an fiver

odds seem better than powers but not as easy to navigate, only new so i'd say it will improve greatly but it has one very handy betting info in the information section

http://livescore.betradar.com/dev/statistics/betpack/

tables, results, head to heads, recent form etc- very handy for soccer,

rugby,nfl,snooker etc

apparently you'll be able to lodge cash into shop soon but they werent ready for that when i enquired, as i said its pretty brand new

PP notoriously have the worst odds in the industry. Theyy compensate with poxy offers like

"if your horse finishes 2nd, within a short head of the SP fav doing the moon walk, we'll give you your money back"

Although they guarantee prices on multiples

kingshankly · 18-01-2010 8:11pm

i wouldnt say paddys are worse than betpak as betpak use stan james prices who are one of the quickest to update their prices

yaaaboy · 19-01-2010 6:29pm

anybody ever use www.interwetten.com ? open an account and dont put any money into it and after about 10 days they credit you a freee fiver! i had managed to build mine up to 85 (before losing it again)

The only drawback is no horse racing bets

Signed up to see if it works!
Will tell ye's in 10 days or so

claude1976 · 19-01-2010 11:28pm

i see spoilsports launched their new site today... live betting looks interesting

Vurnon San Benito · 16-02-2010 12:03am

I got no free fiver from Interwetten

Sizzler · 09-04-2010 12:46pm

I see setantabet.com are paying on the first 6 in the grand national, happy days!

Also the usual free €20 bet if you sign up, although you have to use it on the footy.

may as well put this here

few people had been on about betpack.com recently and getting free bets

but it was slow, real slow, i mean was slower than jo brand in the 100 metre dash
however its working superb now

so its bascially stan james but you can lodge cash into through the indos
Hacketts, Bamburys, Mulhollands, Track and another few that have escaped my memory

They all seem to be handing out different codes for the free bets

I Used JM205 ages ago and it worked and gave it to another lad last week and it worked too

Fair play to the indos, i thought it was a stupid idea if the site was going to be like that but its great now

up there with powers now and ahead of boyles and ladbrokes

Is that the new Irish Bookmaker? I only came across them recently myself.

Open an account with Betfair, use someone you know so they get £25 and you get £25 .......... betfair take 5% commission on winnings and their prices are on average 20% better.

Denners · 23-05-2010 10:19pm

Well lads,

Was thinking of setting up another account with Bet365. I already have a Betfair account, but the short odds on horses are particularly poor at times. I have a Boylesports acc (not great at all) aswell but only for certain multiples that can't be placed on Betfair.

I just want to know the advantages and disadvantages of Bet365 to anyone that uses them.

Thanks

Pishogue · 24-05-2010 10:48pm

The SportingLife have a link to betting tips and advice on all sports - super site called BettingZone. I often want to have a bet on what's currently on TV that I know little about e.g. Darts or Cricket. They will give you plenty of food for thought.

Opened a Bet365 account about a month ago on the advise of the people on here and I've been happy out with it. They've brilliant in-play markets and as I'm sure you know they'll match you're initial deposit up to €200. One drawback was the fact that you have to roll-over your deposit+free bet 3 times before you can make a withdrawal.
e.g you deposit €10, you get €10 worth of free bets then you'll have to stake €60 before you can make a withdrawal.

x PyRo · 27-05-2010 9:51pm

Bet365 is the most superior bookie on the net as I've said many a time before, If anyone hasn't got an account I urge you to get one! The in-running betting on football is brilliant too, And they're usually the best price on most markets whether it be football or horse racing.

shaggykev · 28-05-2010 2:19pm

I tried bet365 and they looked excellent alright

only lobbed a score into it to no avail. is it ok for withdrawing money back out?

Do they not ask for a kyc proof thing to prove your not a money launderer etc

if not think i'll go with them for the world cup

Headshot · 06-06-2010 6:35pm

right im biting the bullet and leaving pp, iv stayed with them since iv started betting but their live betting really pisses me off and their market for games outside Europe is very poor

so who's better ?

i was thinking of bet365 but im not sure how that 100% deposit offer works

skeleton_boy · 06-06-2010 8:04pm

Having recently opened an account with them it is slightly confusing at first.

Whatever you deposit up to €200 will be matched by them. You will have to stake €200 worth of bets before you're free bet becomes available & €1,200 (3 times your initial deposit + bonus) before you make a withdrawl.

I left for the same reason, bet365 is much better for live betting, just takes a bit of getting used to navigating round the site. If you want a referral code just pm me, think its worth a 25 squid free bet

do i need a passport or some id to sign up to bet365 ?

CrabieCrawford · 06-06-2010 9:04pm

i think you have to make 1200 worth of bets at odds of greater than 1/2. you dont have to put all the 200 on one bet as far as I know but someone else could could this.

Think they ask for a passport no and expiry date as far as I can remember, been a while since I set mine up.

CrabieCrawford · 06-06-2010 9:07pm

ill just double check that you can use the referral code with the deposit code, wouldnt want you missing out on the 200 for the sake of 25

Go to the members area, then click on refer a friend (down the left hand side) , you need their name and email address and maybe a contact no

You've got it yeah and as said the 200e doesn't have to be all the one bet.
Also they do require i.d to verify you're account. I scanned an e-mail of my age card and e-mailed it to them myself.

Stan James are very decent.

You can deposit money using a paysafecard which you can purchase at any store that has the PayPoint sign up. You basically just buy a voucher and type it in on your account. There is no fee either.

Worth considering.

Gillington · 07-06-2010 11:13pm

For Bet365 I didnt have to show any ID or whatever,they sent me out a KYC letter (Know your customer),this had a code on it which I juust entered in the members are on the site and my age was verified.I have a Visa Debit card and withdrawals can take as little as 24 hours which is handy.

With regards the rollover,its 3 times the deposit plus bonus so if I lodge a tenner,i get a tenner bonus.20 quid x 3 is 60 so when I've placed 60 in bets I can start to withdraw.

Same as,if anyone wants a referral just get in touch!

Just had a quick look at your website and was reading your piece on Pricewise. Can you explain why you need 3 accounts from the following quote - I have a PP but not other 2

:

You will need to have an online account with <SNIP> These firms guarantee the Pricewise tips' price so it is imperative to hold accounts with each of these bookmakers.

Hey deewhy, do you follow Pricewise regularly? If so, you should really hold accounts with the three bookmakers. If you only have an account with Power's you are very unlikely to be getting the best price regularly.
Take Saturday's tip Ingleby Lady as an example, best priced 10/1 with Stan James and shorter everywhere else. The 3 bookmakers you mentioned guarantee their prices for a short time each morning for Pricewise, so I'd highly recommend opening an account with them.

By following the Pricewise Policy on the website, you should get on average 105-115% of the recommended price.

POINTBREAK · 09-06-2010 1:16pm

Are you saying you didn't know about both my sites and just came up with the exact same idea independently?

betstop · 09-06-2010 5:25pm

Hi all, I've been getting some feedback via email and PMs and many people weren't aware that some bookies guaranteed the Pricewise prices at all. Hardly surprising I suppose, it should be advertised more by the Racing Post in my opinion, as it gives the punter a great chance.
If you follow the policy on the site, you will get an average of over 100% of the recommended odds of the tips. (As if the tips weren't good enough!)

Last time you said 105% to 115%. Are you seriously claiming you can get better than the Pricewise advised price?

ghosttown · 09-06-2010 9:34pm

Hmmm.... I see a 'healthy' discussion forming here... Betstop is new, and uncannily like Pointbreak's. Although I don't post much, I am with Pointbreak on whatever lies ahead !

Gillington · 10-06-2010 9:54pm

Right I have Boyles,PP,Lads,Betfair,Bet365 mainly use 365, Done my WC longtermers with them.If you's were lodging €10 or €20 for the WC (mainly match betting) who would you's go for,oddswise and more importantly bonuswise? Looking at BlueSquare cos of there €66 in free bets but looking for info and suggestions etc.

Cheers!

skeleton_boy · 11-06-2010 2:35pm

Having a lot of trouble looging in, maybe worth an email to the customer services, maybe a free bet in it, and if not no harm, just say how you were gonna lump a pile on a team/event/result and you couldnt log in and bet

lavine7 · 14-06-2010 3:32pm

Signed up with Boylesports for the WC cos of their €20 sign up bonus. I thought the bonus was awarded depending on the size of your first deposit, so i duly put €20 into my new account, but it's actually the size of your first stake.
Still, spoke to them last night on their chat help on the site and they were more than happy to offer me the €20 free bonus as a gesture of goodwill.

mailburner · 17-06-2010 12:57pm

i had an account with stan james which i used till a few months back.
backed a winner in ireland thinking the price was guaranteed but was
disgusted when i found out they dont guarantee prices on irish racing.
I rang them and told them id consider coming back to them when this changes.
they don't deserve anyones custom imo

Is the bold bit definitely true??? Was hoping to get the €200 bonus and use my balance on 3 very low risk bets, thereby allowing me to withdraw it.

If you just want to get the 200 with no risk you need a betfair account.
Then you need to find a bet at evens where you can lay on betfair and back with the bookie for the same price.
Maybe a football match with draw no bet odds or something similar.
You keep doing that until you have racked up enough to withdraw or have won the amount of the bonus on Betfair.
Understand?
