well they told me that accounts are monitored on a regular basis and bla bla they can sometime remove restrictions, lol. i still have 13-14 eur max limit for nba vets so that kinds the lower end of my bets ( 20 eur ). so those 400 are just in case. I can withdraw they anytime i want.

Im sure Ladbrokes are terrified, for you have really exposed them here.
90 years in business, all seems pointless - they may as well close now.

"Do Not open an account with Ladbrokes"

Paddypower, Unibet and williamhill will be good choices if you're in Europe.

**jjgold** · 11-22-13, 04:57 PM

SBOBET has lots of live nba

your a fool to go off ratings for places here, you have said it yourself in your original post how can lads be A, so why would you care what rating they are??

Unibet are fantastic, livestream and amount they offer is pretty good, i would also recommend marathon, both are rec. books so you will no doubt run into the same issues as lads but at least it will last for awhile....all the best

**jjgold** · 11-23-13, 08:08 AM

Unibet ok

recreational book but just bet until they ban you

unibet is a big operation with around 7.2 million customers but they do have a strange record regarding some complaints

I think I have seen more complaints regarding unibet than any other top european recreational bookmaker (wilhill, paddy,ladbrokes, bet365, bwin etc)

I think they were even mentioned by justin7 in a video here on sbr regarding some complaints.

**onemoregoal** · 11-23-13, 05:51 PM

The UK books are much safer, they have physical shops and have been around for much longer than online operations like Unibet.
Also as a general rule - Id avoid books licensed in Malta like Unibet/Betway/Expect/Interwetten.....
Theyre not awful, but try the UK books first.

jesus man are you serious?? do you need me to hold your hand while you take a dump as well?

hills, paddy,coral,bet365,stanjames,betfred,spo rtingbet...those are your big uk players, like with lads you will find the limits will go quickly but obviously worth playing till they are gone....

**shaunovery** · 11-24-13, 06:05 AM

Why not try betfair for in play betting on nba and tennis

**jjgold** · 11-24-13, 08:22 AM

Marathon ok..very good odds like Pinnacle

Live betting Betfair is a must and really only book you need as they ave the tightest margins around and most volume by a landslide

**dikefale** · 11-24-13, 08:53 AM

JJ is on the spot.

I plan to join and I will because they are honest

about limits , most UK bookies do the same but they are honest , this is the most important thing

**jjgold** · 12-01-13, 10:38 AM

Ladbrokes is A type book

Limits have nothing to do if a book is good or not

Its about paying fast and a legit legal book

Sorry JJ but I just don't accept that view.

In this part of the world with regulated books we are entitled to accept safety of funds and fast payment as given.

A book which won't even accept one's custom or if they do, deny access to products and limit bets to waste-of-time amounts certainly cannot be classified as "good".

That's almost like saying a casino is not good if it kicks out people who count cards... bookmakers like casinos are in the business of taking people's money so they throw out the ones that would actually win in the long run. simple

Fully aware of that Allin but that doesn't entitle them to be rated as "good".

And none of these corporate cowards ever explains how Pinnacle (apparently) makes profits whilst accepting all comers without finding the need to limit them.

Pinnacle is almost like an exchange. The small juice is their commission. Totally different species. You already know this

The other bookmakers are recreational books. Some of them even warn you that they only accept recreational bets. They consider their services as offering entertainement. For a recreational bookmaker, ladbrokes is definitely "good"

I know you can argue that making money with a mathematical edge can be "entertainement" or "recreational" for some... but you know what I mean...

**jjgold** · 12-01-13, 05:08 PM

Books are here to make money, its a business

They find a model that makes them money
