Bookmakers will usually contact you via email and SMS, depending on your preferences Adam.
It’s very rare that they’ll contact you via post, however, it is possible.
If anyone else is looking for guidance on qualifying bets and what selections to look out for, please see my new Qualifying Bets Guide.
No problem at all @TheBigA and congrats on the profits figure!
Very nice work indeed.
Thanks for flagging this up.
It looks like they’ve replaced their welcome offer with a weekly rewards club offer…

Hi Harris,
I don’t think there’s an opportunity here unfortunately.
If you were dutching with back bets, you would want as high odds as possible to lock in a profit. With lay bets like this, you would want as low odds as possible, certainly less than evens.
Hope that helps.

Maybe they stopped showing MB2 in the list of races when they stopped running the offer daily to everyone.
It seems to be open to everyone on big race days like Saturday and Sunday this weekend and then invite only on regular race days.
Bookies will usually notify you of a restriction/gubbing, so fingers crossed your account is okay.
Just a reminder @scabbadab, that promoting your own products and services is against forum rules.
To be clear, your contribution to the forum is and has always been very much appreciated, but at the same time, I can’t have one rule for one person and a different set of rules for everybody else.
Any issues or if you want to discuss this, drop me an email. Thanks.
You can only lay combinations Gabriele, if the exact combination is listed as a market at the exchange.
For example, the exchanges offer a ‘Winner and both teams to score market’, so that allows you to lay things like ‘Man Utd to win and both teams to score’.
For the ‘Winner & Under 1.5 Goals’ example you’ve given, that’s basically saying the team will win 1-0, so you could lay that particular example in the Correct Score market at the exchanges.
Hope that helps.
That seems odd @vicky.
Open bets should always show in your account.

Hi @jeph32,
Things have certainly changed a fair bit over the years.
You can find all of the available sign up offers on my New Customer Offers page. Just have a read of the terms and decide which ones you want to take up. My advice is to start with the free-bet offers, then move on to risk-free offers and bonuses. Always make sure you have enough funds to available to fulfil any wagering requirements and if you don’t like the terms, feel free to leave it and move on to a different offer.
The general consensus nowadays is that you’re going to lose a few accounts along the way, it’s inevitable. The bookies are a lot better nowadays at monitoring accounts and identifying those that display patterns suggestive of matched betting. You just need to mix things up as much as possible and keep them guessing.
Oddsmatcher’s tend to be a premium tool nowadays. I would recommend OddsMonkey if that’s the route you want to go down but it’s not a necessity. It’s easy enough to find your own bets.
We can actually lay multiples on the exchanges now. Both Betfair and Smarkets offer a selection of pre-built accumulators for us to back and lay.
You’re right about the exchanges. If you’re doing a Betfair Sportsbook offer, it’s best to lay your bets elsewhere. The same applies for any Paddy Power offers as they are now in business with Betfair.
Hope that helps!
Matt
