    Dont go Betway

    Be very aware of this Micky Mouse Bookmaker they will block or restrict your account if they decide you are Arbing. After Placing £300 worth of bets they sent me email offering £20 bonus to fill in survey which i promptly did. I did one more £25 bet with them and they restricted my bets to £2 & £4 bets on odds on shots, i was told that as i was given bonus i could not withdraw until i placed £200 of bets. It took over 4 months to be able to withdraw. It took nearly £500 of bets before i could withdraw, when i complained i had done the £200 required i was fobbed off with excuses that i still had more betting to go. I emailed them about there Dirty Tricks and would complain on SBR. So be advised dont use BETWAY.

    I was limited after one double bet, stake 50e. They move odds slow, and they are sportsbook for recreational players exclusively.I think you can ask them to remove bonus they gave you, since they limited you so severely.

    They paid you? You are lucky. We have a bunch of new complaints where they are mugging players with this crazy rule. If you collect a $100 bonus and place a $35 bet, they steal all your winnings (and bonus) based on their "irregular betting" rule.

    Stay far away from this book.

    A few years back, they had rule in their "Terms and conditions" that they dont allow arbers, and that they have right to confiscate their money, however due to some pressure from industry, they removed that rule. Funny book if you ask me, trust Justin7, you dont need to risk with them.

    Time for another pressure, this is crazy:

    16.6 Irregular Play

    Before any withdrawals are processed, your play will be reviewed for any irregular playing patterns. In the interests of fair gaming; equal, zero or low margin bets or hedge betting, shall all be considered irregular gaming for bonus play-through requirement purposes. Other examples of irregular play include, but are not limited to, placing single bets equal to or in excess of, 30% or more of the value of the bonus credited to your account before the wagering requirements for that bonus have been met. Should Betway deem that you have indulged in irregular game play, we reserve the right to withhold any withdrawals and/or to confiscate all of your winnings.
