Fancy Atlanta to win 6/4 (best bet of playoff weekend imo) and over 34.5 points in the Denver/Pittsburgh game 10/11.

 

Man city 10/1 is worth a quid

 

Read the ****ing post you plank, I'm not complaint about a free bet, I'm complaining they put one in my account, I used the free bet and they took cash. Slightly differnt

 

When a free bet is in your account you normally need to click on the free bet to use it once you have picked your selections, from past experiences on my part anyway.

 

This is exactly what I did, I clicked use free bet and it was accepted. My balance remained the same then changed 4 hours later

 

Betfred are robbing *******s anyway, i placed an inrunning bet on a college football game 2 years ago and they changed the handicap after i had placed the bet and had been confirmed, it came in and myseriously it changed by 5 points through the night after i went to bed, i argued with them to no avail so just told them to shut my account down.

 

Might stick a few quid on this game to finish 3-1/3-2 to United.

BTW Lads i been doing my betting with Paddy Power, Who's the best to bet with?..

 

Paddy Power and Bet365 are the best online bookies imo Mand. Get yourself a betfair account though mate.

 

:good Cheers Mark.

 

This is the thing with betting online, You can't really prove your bet if they want to change things around afterwards. I bet on a stupid bet on tennis, 50/1 it was and it came in. I'd only put a quid on pissing about out of boredom, anyway I'd placed it online and the guy came back and won after being only one game from losing and hardly having won any games, It was due to the other player being injured. Anyway I won the bet and later see that my pound has been returned to me, so i call up and ask what the crack is. I still had the betting reciept in my account and everything. Anyway they told me that the odds had shifted just before I had bet, which seems unlikely as they have that ten second countdown thing and my bet had gone through perfectly. There was nothing I could do about it. I always use skybet now just because they seem the easiest to use.

 

Not on if they're ****ing people about though is it, bookies aren't exactly hard up. The purpose of free bet promos is to get more people using their site and thus make themselves even more cash, the least they can do is be fair, clear and honest about what they're giving you.

 

Generally use Boyles or Bet365. No complaints from either. Bet365 good phone site too.

Got accounts with most (except Betfred) in case any have good early odds.
Sky bet are normally pretty good for the in fight betting and early Prizefighter odds.

 

:good Cheers Trena!

 

I use paddypower. Decent promotions as well as being alright with customer service.

 

You do 3-2 mand? What price was it? I assume it would have been tasty odds.
