Gubbings and Withdrawals

  • I just made a reply to a post made by Johnbo about getting gubbed after making a withdrawal at Ladbrokes. No one really knows what criteria bookies have for gubbing people, but gubbings often seem to come after a withdrawal.

    Do people think this is what caused the gubbing or is it just coincidence. Now each bookie must have far too many withdrawals every day to have enough staff to enable scrutiny of every single account that someone has taken money out of. They would need to employ hundreds of traders in order to facilitate this.

    I wonder if perhaps when a withdrawal is made the account is alerted to a trader if it has already been placed (automatically by some kind of software prog) on a watch list. This would of course limit the amount of accounts a trader would need to look at, and hence prevent the bookies having to employ hundreds of staff.

    I have lost quite a few accounts, not one of them happened after a withdrawal, but often happened after a series of successive largish wins over a short period of time on some of their promotions. For example Skys acca boost, or B365 4/1 offer.

    In conclusion I think most of us will be on watch lists with the bookies (they probably have some kind of points system) the higher your score the more likely you are to be looked at by a trader.

    If you are high up on their score then withdrawing money might just push your score over a threshold which causes you to be scrutinised.

    Good shout Matt. Just changed my user name. What about bookies owned by same people gubbing you by easily spotting matched betting? Im thinking of skybet,paddy,betfair sportsbook, all vested interests. All gubbed me. Makes sense as this means they lose money. Any others we should know about?
