    Changed from 365 to sky because of a free bet every week. Looked at Marathon since they sponsored Hibs but their site is really poor on my iPhone

    I have over £100 in my bet365 account that I can't withdraw, apparently I need to keep betting to get my winnings

    I liked sky bet because of the free bet club but now it's £25 a week minimum they can ram that up their erse.

    What's the minimum top up on bet 365? I like just putting £5 bets on to give me an interest, sky bet is £10 minimum now so another reason to pie them.

    Marathon bet website on my phone is a complete waste of time.

    I take it they're bonuses? I never bother with bonus offers as you have to bet so many times the original stake before you can withdraw.

    Bet365 are my bookie of choice as well, in addition to their huge choice of markets there are also a load of live streamed games to watch.

    On Bet365 you can deposit £5 if you use your debit card. For Paypal it's £10.

    GC i had a similar problem with Corals online when i won over £500 on a bet last season. I called up and they said i had agreed some kind of casino bet, i explained that there was no chance that i was going to bet that kind of cash, and that it was a syndicate bet, when i mentioned the press they paid up

    Betfair is the best for odds, gives you the option to trade in running as well.

    I normally use Betvictor. They usually have the best price when checking on oddschecker and their normal and phone sites are easy to use.

    Just checked their site and they are offering new customers 5/1 (max £10) on the Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool treble. Industry average price for the treble is 5/4 they say. Only available until 12:45 obviously.

    Their minimum deposit is £5 as well.

    Agree Betfair has the best odds 80% of the time, you can bet in play and in running on many events - which is useful if your horse falls at the first fence and you want to back another - and all the markets the others offer.

    On top of that you can 'lay' a team which in effect means you can bet for a team, horse etc not to win.

    You should look at Oddschecker before putting any bets on. I've got an account with all the main bookies and shop around first.

    Betfair for me too, especially for outsiders in whichever market you invest in.

    I have opened accounts with just about every online bookie, if you are new to online betting and want a bet every week. Then sign up to a different one every week, you will get some sort of free bet with each one.

    Then after you have exhausted them all, pick which one you prefer.

    I use betfair these days, unless i get a free bet from one of them through an email they all send out.

    Have to agree, always amazes me why people still bet in shops when the value is on the exchanges. Horses is a good example, Ladbrokes gone 16s when Bentfair is 40s!

    But with the football Laying a team is my favourite wager, make a fortune. I use the software BetBotPro and lay all favourites to a % of bank liabilty ie £10 liability each fav. In front every weekend.

    There is no such thing as a good bookie, have the cheek to win a few quid and see how they treat you. Open accounts with them all take any bonuses and play with their money.

    For single bets it has to be betfair. Far bigger odds than anywhere else.

    Pinnacle are often better than Betfair once commission is taken into account.
