    BET365 What a lousy book!

    Im tired of getting run arounds from this company. I have been a long time customer of Bowmans. When Bowmans switched over to Bet365 I had the feeling things would be bumpy along the way. Bowmans was always curtious and I always received a cheque in the mail within 3 days. They provided great service.

    I am not happy because BET365 has refused to withdraw money to my Instadebit account. My instadebit has been set up for more than 6 months now, and I have had a couple of withdrawals to my Instadebit account already. BET365 clearly has posted that customers can withdraw a min amount of 75.00. BET365 has gotten extensive information from me, regarding banking info, and everything else, about me except for blood type. They must of also received info from Bowmans. Why do I feel like I am trying to pull a tooth out when I talk to these people.

    My advice to anyone looking for books, stay away from BET365!

    I have lost any trust I had with this company.

    They are good for UK customers with fast withdrawals back to debit cards

    Problem is that they are very quick to limit. Win here & you very very quickly limited hence their nickname of Bet £3.65p

    They were great years ago, okay good years ago but as LG said they will just kill your limits.

    I gave up on them after being hit with absurd limits.

    But then got a new lease of life there when my Bowmans account was transferred to them.

    Didn't take them long though to reduce me to betting just peanuts again so I quit them for a second time

    Not known as Bet$3.65 without good reason.

    Bet365 is an A+ Book as far as I'm concerned.

    Have great limits (Up to 8K on baseball and way larger on Premier League Soccer) , and I always receive wire payouts within 48 hours

    How can they allow some players to bet up to $8K and other only $5?

    Something here makes little sense.

    What's the secret?

    Are you a regular loser?

    Anyway, my secret: luck

    ok, then what's your explanation of the difference in the way they treat you and I?
    I didn't win anything very significant from them ... <10k I think

    Still that's way more than what I've heard of them, I'll be happy if I can take 5k out of them.

    Noober's secret is being able to tell a great story.

    The only possible way he can be up over 2000% at Bet365 without his limits being touched is if he is an extremely small bettor to begin with or if he just recently opened up his account and went on a run.

    Bet365 will cut limits on any serious bettor and you don't have to be winning for them to do it. If you have any clue as to what you're doing, your limits will be drastically cut win or lose.

    yep, that's as I believe it to be
    certainly fits in with my two experiences there

    and the same is the case with ALL the Euro books
    but worse still that disease is now showing up in Australia as our bookies are being bought out by those bastards

    Now I am also being limited

    For some years I played with Bet365. My bets were up to 150 dollars. Never any problems, fast withdrawals, many bonuses and I dont recall I won especially much. I think I was a small winner on this bookie.

    For some months I didnt play so much. Then this summer I thought of playing again on soccer. I placed a bet with some low sum about 5 dollars, and was limited on this small sum. OK, I thought, so there was a lot of betting on this match.

    Today I wanted to do some parlay-betting. It was mostly for fun so I wanted to bet ridiculuos amounts.

    I had four matches with an odds of 15, about 7 for the parlays of three matches.

    I wanted to bet 5 swedish crowns on each parlay, so the total would be 25 sek.

    5 sek is about 70 cents. I wondered if they would accept these low bets, usually it is one dollar minimum, about 7,3 sek.

    Surprise. I got the answer, bet for the parlay of 4 is too high! Please bet max bet. I couldnt bet 5 sek, that is 70 cents, the max bet was 4 sek! The max bet was 55 cents! Ha ha ha!

    The nickname shouldnt be bet3.65 it should be bet0.365!

    I was also recently limited after making quite some bets with them for about two months. After reading about them I'm happy it took so long for them to limit me. Usually it's faster.

    Each to their own I guess ... have not had any issues with their CS and always friendly and helpful on the livechat.

    Regularly get moneybooker payouts from them same/next day and for UK/IRE racing they are borderline indispensable (as long as you don't go crazy and abuse their 4/1+ and/or feature race 'pick a winner get a FB to same stake on next race' offers)

    Joke of a book. After a really small deposit I run up my balance to 5k in two days. Account got suspended when i asked for a wire then (after two days playing with them). I was told it will get unlocked after sending in my id, passed the voice check and confirm the postal verification code. Id got verified, voice check passed and postal verification code verified. After the voice check (they asked me about my details, first deposit, bets i made etc etc) i was told to send in a second id. i did that and never heard of them again. Now they accuse me of having multiple accounts what i dont have.
    Horrible book that does not pay if you win some money within a short timeframe. Even when all ids, postal verification code and voice check were passed they accuse you of having multiple accounts for not paying out.
    Tried them once and will never give them my business again.

    Yep got the reload offer as well.

    Seems one's overall opinion of them (excepting if you get limited) is based upon location ...

    if you're European, they're easy to deal with via ewallet or card and relatively straight-forward ...
    If you're from the states, you whinge ...

    (shrug)

    This lousy book recently stopped cooperating with sbr.

    "I can also confirm that we would not provide sportsbookreview.com with any data involving your account as this would breech data protection"

    This books gets worse and worse.

    Hahahaha

    European Data Protection Act requirements would prohibit such in the absence of a signed, witnessed document permitting them to do so.

    They limited me to <$10 bets when I had already cleared $2600 out of the $3000 rollover requirements. Pretty bullshit. Do I have any recourse here?
