Advantages: A great betting website Disadvantages: Can become addictive
...use this little beauty - bet365.com Of course, those who refuse to bet on anything then this website will have little or no interest to you whatsoever, but you never know, I could still surprise you! Being a big sports geek, I solely use the sports section of the website but there are areas dedicated to casino, a specific poker section and 'games' which include things like virtual football and greyhound racing. In my cynical viewpoint however, betting ... ...real-life as the odds or results can be fixed so the majority of people lose out.

Advantages: Free bets, good odds! Disadvantages: They take your money!
...and have a little flutter, Bet365.com is my prefered online bookie. I have had an account with Bet365 for about 4months now, after I initially joined to get cashback via a cashback site.
Bet365 started life as a high street bookmakers, but these days is an exclusively online gaming company, owned by the chairman of Stoke City FC, Peter Coates. Bet365 are one of the UK's largest gaming companys, and the website has developed to now offer casino, ... ...facility.
I was very impressed when I signed up to Bet365, not only did they match my first bet up to a maximum of £25, which is fairly standard with most of the well known bookmakers, but they also offer more free bet opportunities also. For every 5 bets made on the site, they will match the lowest valued bet with an extra free bet. This offer is available up to 5 times, so for a total of 25 bets made, you can get 5 free bets back from the site.

Advantages: lots of players, weekly 5k freeroll, 100k in may Disadvantages: online poker cards aren't quite right
I've been playing poker for more years than is probably good for me and over the last couple of years have tried approximately 50 online poker clients/sites. Of those bet365 is one the few i choose to use frequently.
Obtaining the client is pretty easy, simply navigate to the bet365 homepage, click the poker link at the top and download, shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes. Once installed, register ( though be warned its a prima client ... ...use the same username), they will send you a confirmation email which when clicked will enable you to access the site. Setup your account details and away you go. I would recommend having a more modern pc and a decent net connection cause sometimes the site gets laggy when lots of users are on.
Since they are primarily a bookmaking service depositing and removing cash is via the sportsbook option which is pretty straighforward and supports most ...

Advantages: easy to use Disadvantages: Unrealistic hands
...This is done using your bet365.com login name and password.

Advantages: Nice and easy Disadvantages: Lose all your money? Can't really think of anything major.
Now we all like a little flutter don't we? Well maybe not, but i do. The thrills, the excitement, the knowledge that even though you just lost your last tenner backing a horse (just because it was called 'Big Pat'), that you had fun doing it..................
Well, anyway, on to the point of this review. Bet365 was the first online bookies I ever tried. This was because, after a very short period of searching for the right online bookies for me, ... ...online bookies will give you a free bet or something just for signing up with them. Bet365 offered me a very attractive 25 quid to bet as I pleased! How generous! Unfortunately I'm clearly an absolute idiot, since I didn't have a clue how to sort out this free bet, and just gave up on the idea. (That's not really a fair criticism, I actually just didn't read the rules properly.)
Free bet aside, registration was great. I didn't even need a credit ...

I have several betting accounts with different bookies, and out of all of them, this is the most appauling mickey mouse company i have ever seen.
There is a betting system called arb's. This is where you can bet on all outcomes of a game and no matter what you make a profit. Nothing wrong or illegal about this, its justtaking advantage of varous odds from various bookies.
Well today, i went for a good one with a high % return. I placed £250 worth ... ...site to place a bet on the other team. After that, i go back to bet365 to print out my bets, only to see that they have changed the odds, and cancelled my bet. The odds dropped from 14/5 to 5/18. The game was not in play. As far as i am concerned the bet was placed and accepted and that is that. But unfortunatley i believe the law does not cover gambling the same way it would other transactions where an offer and acceptance takes place to make a ...

Advantages: Live betting, Offers Disadvantages: Ambiguous rulings
Around about March 2005 was when I had just started working for a major UK Gambling firm so thought that I would open up my first ever betting account; I had no clue who to use as I wasn't really much of a gambler so asked a friend and he recommended Bet365 to me.
I have had accounts with them ever since barring the occasional dispute.
The Bet365 live betting function is quite simply unrivalled within the industry. They cover some of the most obscure ... ...on them as they are happening. Stunning.
The Customer Service team at Bet365 aren't too bad when compared with some of the other major bookmakers. They aren't exactly knowledgable I wouldn't say when it comes to sports but they are pretty responsive and offer as good a service as can be expected.
I particularly enjoy betting on cricket - this is something 365 are the best at. They offer odds on both Australian domestic and South African domestic ...

I have been very successful in laying the horses to lose.Only Bet365 and Betfair appear to offer odds for this kind of scenario to happen.I opened up an account,got the free bets and thought great.The problem is once you get too successful they pull the plug on you and severely limit your bets making it hardly worthwhile.Great for the mug punters who dont mind losing but if you want to win money accept that the honeymoon wont last forever.I actually ... ...yet still had my account severely restricted after only 16 bets.Why if i was losing with them.They should not be privy to any information if i am backing with another provider,so i have the suspicion that these companies get together and monitor bets placed.This should not be allowed to happen.As another poster stated Arbing is not illegal.If bookmakers want to offer differing odds and the punter can place his or her bets so they win all ways up ...

Advantages: you are 100% sure that you will be paid because this is a reputable company, bet options easy to undertand Disadvantages: their odds are not always great
Blue Square was a division of City Index Limited, London, formed in 1983. Blue Square has recently (Jan 2003) been bought by Rank Group PLC - i've used them a couple of time and my dealings with them have always been smooth - deposit with a credit card and winnings go back to your card - their odds are not the greatest around but they offer a decent selection of games and you don't have to worry about being paid...

Advantages: Clear Website, with a variety of sports to bet on with a casino as well Disadvantages: Lack of explanation with some types of bets
Again this is a betting site, which provides customers across the world with a valuable service. Customers can join for free and bet on any bets that are available on the site, whether it includes yankee or triples or round robin robins(all types of bets). The transaction of funds to and from the site are quick and easy with little problems. I would not say that this is the most fantastic betting website on the internet but it isn't the worst, again ... ...and i also believe that the layout of the site is abit dull and boring, it doesn't shout out at me to bet there.
As i said in my negative part of this review i believe that the website believes all punters are experienced on the types of bets available when as i know they are not and to get infomation on the available types of bets is non-existant.
A positive for the site is that it has a specialist page for football lovers, now i love norwich ...

Advantages: Customer service Disadvantages: none for me
I have accounts with 20 online bookies and I have found bet365 the best of the lot. They offer far more and far better offers than any of their rivals. Speed of navigation is the best I have seen. Price wise they seem to take their own veiwpoint more often than some of the supposed bigger bookies and if you disagree with them they offer the best value. I have needed to contact customer service three times and on each occassion got my problem dealt ... ...wrong on each occasion but on one case they realised why I might have misunderstood the offer and the returned my stake even though they need not have I also contacted them about a complaint about another online bookie and they showed me how to deal with my grievance. They send email offers and news that are unique to them so I dont regard them as the usual junk mail you get from some companies. all in all a great bookie ...
