    Watch out for bet365

    *They screw you big time especially if you livebet, when you accept a bet and a specific line sometimes the change the line without you accepting it. So for example youre gonna livebet a MLB game yankes -2.5 you press accept bet and when the bet is placed you get the line -3.5. It have happened to me several times and theres is nothing you can do because THEY are always right.I have condacted them immidietly when the bet is placed and the score in the games is the same but they just dont void it.

    * When you place a bet to a line +215 and you win sometimes they also lower the line have happened to me several times aswell they say they put the wrong line out yeah for sure maybe 1 time in a half year but not 4 times in 1.5 months and if i loose the bet they only take my money they dont say that the line was wrong.Maybe i wouldent have bettet that game if the line was so low HUH

    Choose another site i will never give them 1 penny more so much better more trustworty sites outthere so do youreself a favor and dont give away your money to them

    Yeah it happened to me several times asweel so i took out my money and told them to close my account for all times. The most frustrating thing is the linechanges they do frequently after you have won a bet never is the line in favour of you always against you. And watch out for the currency exchanges so they dont scam you there happened to me and when i pointed out that i got to little money they paid me back and said there was some problem with their bank. WATCH OUT PEOPLE!!!! USE BETFAIR INSTEED OR ANY OTHER BOOKIE BUT NOT BET365!!

    Bet365 is not a good book. Lots of options but anyone with a clue will be sent packing.

    bet365 live betting is amazing if you can find good lines. I've made tons of live bets. If you go to bet a live line and the odds change they tell you the updated odds before you choose to accept the bet or not. They never adjust the odds after the ticket is written, At least for me they haven't

    For those looking for more recent posts. Bet365 is a scam. If you don't believe me, try and do a withdrawal. You will not get paid, and those who come to the defense of this sportsbook probably works for the sportsbook. Do yourself a favor, RUN the other way.

    Bet365 is for losing degen bettors who deposit 50 to 500 and make 25% to 50% of their bankroll bets. They will quickly give you tiny limits if you win even few $500 bets. They also do a lot of shady things like the ones that thread starter mentioned. Once i had a parlay, I had 4 of the 5 teams right and the last game was a night game. They cancelled my parlay saying that they put the wrong line out because by game time the line had moved to +4.5. I booked early and got +7.5. it was a college footy game. That is not bad line, i just beat the line by betting early. If you look at the line history you will see the line gradually moved from +8 all the way down to +4.5. And why the fuk would they cancel my parlay. Even if that was a wrong line, they should have just removed that game and made it a 4 team parly and paid me. After that, i completely stopped playing with. I don't fukkin get how they are licensed by he uk guv. Bunch of fukkin crooks.

    payment is not a problem. they just do a lot of shady things to screw you if you are a winning player. i think they just want to deal with losers and drive all the winners out. winners find a way to play in pinnacle.

    when i stopped betting, i requested a withdrawal of the entire account, just under 3k, to my moneybookers and they paid me with in 2 days. they pay you but they just steal from you while u bet, like the parlay that i mentioned above.

    They take wagers on a remote league from a country I live too. No live betting for that one, but the only other site that takes action on this is lower tier Asian bookie (not one of the top 4). I've used their live betting a bunch for Asian volleyball competitions and for sure this seems legit. Their live feed matches the live television broadcast I'm watching via my cable company. For the play by play props those always start 3-4 serves from where the feed is now and I can't imagine television which says live is on 5 minute delay (seconds delay okay).

    There is actually easy money to be made betting this site but need to dig a little and be creative.
