Betfred Review

Started off well, with plenty of offers and good odds on some matches. But started to decline when I won an ew bet on odds of 20, with bets not accepted. Did not take them long to restict all my bets to small amounts. Their KYC is a bit off a faff too, the worst I have used. I didnt have problems withdrawing though, thank goodness

Live chat is terrible. Just fob you off and don’t help at all. They just want to get you off there as fast as possible. Their manners left a lot to be desired as wellIf you email instead all you’ll get is just a copy and paste template which is absolutely no help at all

please do not bet with this company.my husband has and they asked for every detail about you for verification.he gave a bank stement.driving license but still wanted pay slips and tax returns very.very personal and if you do not provide the documents they block the deposit and withdrawals even if you have money in your account which my husband did. asked for the money to be transferred but said wanted more identification this is well open for fraud to which my son does work for the police in that cetain dept to which i will be looking into.they make you feel like a child.please do not bet with them.0 stars if i could.just look at the reviews they have been getting lately and make your own mind up.should be closed down.

Hi Lot people think Betfred is a scam but I have to correct those that think this Firstly you gamble to win or lose This does mostly go in favour of the site But there are some lucky players that do win its purely luck So please dont leave poor feedback because you have lost its purely down to being in the right place at the right time and not to over spend it gamble over your budget Use the tool to stop allowing you to deposit more to chase your loss Be safe and play wise using small stake on slots ? There there for enjoyment and fun Be safe there is absolutely nothing wrong or untoward going on in this site Use it wisely its simple

Tbh I like paddy Power yes I’ve lost some but I also win compared to other sites. Bad reviews are from people that struggle to grab the concept of gambling. I play on all major sites and spent thousands and lose but on paddy Power I think is much more fair keep it up paddy.

Update, As soon as I closed my Account, they sent me an Email offering the 100 free spins on Starburst, but they know I cant go on there now coz the Account is now closed, what A SCUMBAG move. Absolute Criminals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!They didn’t give the New player bonusThey didn’t give the New player bonus as advertised, and the money I deposited to get the Bonus was only able to be played on the worst slots possible. Forget customer service also, its an absolute JOKE!!!!!!!!!!Go to a real Casino !!!!!!!!!!

Closed my account, reason being is that was ‘a security issue’, customer services do not get any more information to give you than that. There was no security issue, they just wanted to close my account & keep my money. They can do it to whoever they want, whenever they want & claim ‘security issue’. Betfair have done the same to me. Do not use.

If you start to win often they will put restrictions on your account, I can only bet a maximum of 2 at a time, dont use these scumbags

Long explanation but to keep short they, through no fault of my own took money out of my account causing account to go overdrawn! Wheet the feck how can that happen.Got locked out of account with bets running, despite being offered cashout was not able to do so. Bets unsurprisingly lost. Closed accountPs this dumb trustpilot site would not let me use a common three letter internet abbreviation to express my displeasureSecond time something like this happened, closed account last time and reopened.This time its permanent

Won an 8-fold both teams to score last night. They have retained my winnings and wont pay out!! Said I have another account with them. I have never used Betfair before in my life, I set everything up yesterday and there seemed to be no problems until I withdrew my 120. Logged me out and tried to log back in and they had closed my account down. When I spoke to them they had told me they will be retaining my winnings and my account is closed and there is no where further to go, end of basically. Do not use!

I deposit and deposit and play and never win and I bet 50p and get bonus what I get 60p from bonus game..what a crap .never play this site again

Absolutely scammers. You read the reviews from the gambling site reviews and they have 4.5 stars. It doesn’t actually let people leave reviews. The gamble sites that review them are paid off obviously. They changed the odds on me and when I turned it into upper management they said those were the odds. I have a video of me placing the bet and they changed the odds on me from when I pushed the button. They have 1 managers that flat out lie. There system doesn’t work all the time. I put a bet in for a -3 and it put my bet in as a +3 for the other team..I had to forfeit 30% of my initial bet to cancel the one I didn’t want. I used them for 2 weeks and got scammed. Gaming does nothing but protect them and harber criminals. Stay away from.this site that lies and scams people

I banked my winnings on a Saturday so I had some stake for the Melbourne cup Tuesday passed no money it’s now Wednesday and still no money in my account. I rang up customer service and was told one to five days and that I wasn’t forced to make a withdrawal. I won’t use bet365 again. For a bookmaker to do this and have me miss racing’s biggest day in Australia is pathetic. If U lose and just give them money it’s ok but if U want Ur winnings it’s crap

Reply

These company do not honour their own welcome bonus. Lure you in with offers and do not pay them which constitutes a breach of faith. Customer service agent agreed that she should correct the situation only for her supervisor to refuse. Unpleasant people to deal with generally.There is no shortage of book makers so within a few hours Ive withdrawn my business. Avoid this place or play at your own risk. Terrible place.

Reply

Not to be trusted. They will do whatever they can to prevent you from withdrawing your money so that they could steal it from you and keep it. Full of excuses and b*llsh*t.

Just fake the reviews say it allPaddy power and bet fair both run by the same company. Both places a complete rip of. Paddy Powers reward club is fake spend 100 pounds and get 5 pounds off free spins. OK so first you won’t win with your 100 pounds on minimum steaks. And when you get your 5 pounds of free spins you won’t win nothing. I have played here for nearly 2 years and iv never had a win that has paid me 200 x my bet size on slots. So when I tell them this they say its not every day you will win big. They should say not every year you will win big. And is a 200 times your bet a big win when slots can pay up to a 50.000 x now they are the wins you don’t get often. Not wins like 100 x, 150 x, 200 x, what are common now the last 50 bonus round on slots have only paid me less that a 50 x. Now I use to build Web sites and I know that they can control what you win and loose all players who have been a member for over 3 months will start to notice that you will not win big. You will win if your a brand newel player. As they plant the seed in your head. It took me over 25 minutes to get my first and only slot bonus round what paid me a fantastic 3 pound and 37 p. They say its all random but is it. So you have paddy power and bet fair at 1.4 star rating. OK my second point is, Game provides won’t give casinos with low ratings lots of big winning rgn numbers what are random number generator. But is it all random. Nope this is what I know game providers have access to this information regarding random number generated so they simply put more loosing spins in 1 million spins what they sell to casinos and them games providers do have shares in other casinos what there friends own they want to get the ratings up on them casinos to help friends and take there share prices right up. Its all a big con at the end of the day. Now I want you to read at least 1.000 reviews on here and see how many people who. Say they have won big of had a big win in 2 years

Ok for a bet as long as your not a consistent Winner like all bookmakers theyll soon but the brakes on you !! If you choose to play the games youll get cleaned period!!!! There will be no mercy shown -the plus is you will never get restricted because youll never win its that simple ??

I would give minus 10 starts if I could.Absoloute con, didnt recieve welcome bonus.. Apparently because i said i didnt want one… Ehhh hello why wouldn’t I want one.Was nothing but polite on the chat then said they are obviously running a scam, no apologise or anything theu just cloased the conversation.Avoid, avoid, avoid

Paddy is very good for a bet with very quick withdrawal to debit card instant with PP plus card .Probably the best for rewards and free promotion offers .The mobile app is very dependable and easy to use as well?

Beware when frying to withdraw any amount over a couple of hundred pounds. They’ll start messing you about ,asking for ridiculous amounts of I.D, citing all sorts of rules and regulations. I think this is done to keep the money in their accounts for as long as possible, earning interest. As well as it being incredibly frustrating and unnecessary , it gives the impression that they might go bust at any minute.

betfred has stole 16,000 from a customer and refused to return this money until thisisgambling.com took betfred to court! gambling commission knows about this and still issues licence to this company! be very careful with those crooks, if you need help getting your stolen money back, thisisgambling.com will also be able to assist you.

This site has access to slot settings and makes them never win use a site like jaak or a sister site to jaak those guys know how to set the slots up betfred is a complete scam they say they use an rng but ive predicted 3 scatters over a 100 times now when you get your money toYour last 3 spins worth it will drop a near miss of 3 scatters when you need 4 to make you think there is a win coming so you deposit again ive noticed its only this site that has this weird feture im reporting them to the gambling commission to take a deep and hard look at there profits as every slot should only earn them around 6% of whats put in by everyone clearly its going to be a lot higher

Closing stores early without warning . Unable to place betsPoor service

Another bookie happy to advertise good odds and perks but unwilling to lay unless your a mug. 1 maximum bet says it all. Hides behind responsible gambling banner making you jump through hoops with documents, bank statements, P60s, wage slips, pension statements etc which will take months only to be told you can bet on the casino which I never have or never want to or you can bet a 1 on the horses, very responsible!

Horrendous company. Rob, steal and cheat their customers.Stole 200 off me claiming they forgot to turn a market in play and so voided bet. They have no contact telephone number, no email address but only a sh1tty Live Chat service staffed by foreigners who leave you waiting 30 minutes for a reply and don’t understand English.Yes the company is that bad!Betfair and Paddy Power are run by the same people so stay clear of Paddy Power aswell.They are forced to advertise heavily on TV and Radio as no one has a good word to say about them, so they are looking to prey on the naive who have no idea how corrupt and unscrupulous they are.Do NOT join Betfair or Paddy Power as they will take your money and try to ruin your life. There is no proper regulation in the industry so they behave how they like, (see Football Index saga where over 100 million was stolen).

New to this site and wished I had read reviews before hand. If you like a spin on slots then stay away from this money grabbing con merchants after just a few deposits, the spins were so bad I closed my account.

What a great start with bonuses, then a week into the site I placed a bet and it deducted the balance said the bet was placed. I come back half hour later thinking I won and bang no trace of the bet and my stake given back. I contacted them and their response was, we are sorry have a good night and your stake was given back to you. Wow so generous and caring. Also Sportnation I hope you respond to this and Ill throw the transcripts in for you too.

Good odds. Easy to use site.Could have more promotions.Reward points could be more generous.

AVOID! I’ve been betting with these a week, had a few winners, made a few withdrawals, account gets locked and asked to verify. I send my documents in as asked. All this time though my account is locked so I can’t use it, over a day later nothing still. Asked to withdraw my funds as I had done nothing wrong, ghat request got ignored. I have money in my account but can’t access it. I have some shocking reviews, the fact you have to buy or earn best price on horses is a joke. It was ok ish untill I started .among withdrawals, oh and I was told its with the safer gambling team aswell so if you like a bet on your day off do use these because if you place more than 1 bet it’s makes you look like your not in control and they review your account to make sure you can afford it. I will be withdrawing funds and closing account as soon as I have access again, when ever that will be.

When I first used this site I found it satisfactory but obviously far below the main sites like bet365. What I liked about it was it has a decent loyalty scheme where you earn points on every bet and these aquire over a short period of time to a decent free bet. However, this site dramatically changed when I started to do well and have a bit of luck. I managed to build my balance up to over 2500 with some very lucky football bets and after a lucky weekend I went to put on a Monday night accum only to find my max bet allowed was 1p, yes 1p. When I contacted them initially they said it was their traders and nothing to do with customer services and then after some gentle pushing they quoted some small print about basically they can do what they want. I asked for one reason why they were doing this and their response was that they were unlikely to revert any changes made. Bunch of amateurs and it was clear by my betting pattern that I simply got lucky and if they had have done the right thing they would been on the right side of me in a short space of time, STAY AWAY.

False advertisement. If I could leave a photo here I would. Signed up lost my bet and got no free bet as stated I would on sign up. Sad site Sad treatment. Sites like this are obviously on there way out. Not worth the headache and unusual odds on games somethings not right here. In my opinion.

Reply

I will just basically say what everyone else did.Scamm and rigged games.6 different games deposit to play each not even a one bonus all games catching errors just to interfere with you getting bonus.They scumbags should be prosecuted.They deserve proper fee from gambling commission like some other sites.Hopefully soon it’s going to happen.Karma is always coming back and I’m sure those shameless thieves will pay.Highly recommend to avoid those thieves.Shamless without any qualities or dignity.

Proper theives, i have a account with betfred only last sunday 10/10/21 got a tx and email off them saying have 5 free spins on us they call it super spins day… There is also promos which you opt in and get free spin rewards on the monday they call that one free spin acc, so i thought might aswell opt in if im going to play anyway!!! When i went to login i was shocked to find out that my access was denied and the reason was safer gambling team were reviewing my account. Its now saturday after and account is still the same, no access and ripped of all my bonuses… I find it really insulting that they can do this after spending good earned money. I mean come on would you shut a book if you wanted to study it? Betfred get a grip or get lost you theiving bunch of c@#*s.

Basically I could write a whole SA on why I'm so furious with Betfred , but what's the point , they won't listen , and they don't care??

IV spent a lot of my own hard earned money with these jokers , and I'm going to take my hard earned money else where , you have lost a loyal and honest customer Betfred tut tut , your customer service and compliance team stinks I'm afraid , Absolute con artists !!
I can also see by your trust pilot reviews , you won't be in buisiness much longer ,if you carry on the way you are !!!!!!!

Deposit not even lasting a minute!!! Such a joke. All these sites have got pure greedy since covid with constant take take take!! No bonus no features. Disgusting.

I gave in money and won. When I tried to withdraw it they said that they can't withdraw Mastercard. So basically you give your money in and if you win you can't withdraw it. I have screenshot of the conversation where they refuse my withdrawal.

Pieces of scum refuse to withdraw your own money

Take great care not to deposit here

I too have had a problem with betfred regarding their greyhound promotion. I have placed various bets as I always do on the grey hounds usually of 10 wins. But they say i haven't qualified for the promotion due to not being within a time scale.how can you check these when you online account doesn't allow you access to these things. I have to take their word for it but I know I placed more than three bets within their time scale. Rip Off comes to mind. Dont use BetFred go to a bookie that is big and seldom make mistakes like William Hill. Their site is much better!

Wow wow wow!! This is by far the worst betting site and also the machines in store are just as bad. Just avoid playing or betting with them so they go bust. It’s a complete scam. I’m a gambler and I’ve won and lost thousands with many betting companies but I’ve literally never ever won with betfred. It’s not just bad luck when I use them, it’s scamming!! If you are going to have a bet with someone then just make sure it isn’t betfred. They need to be taken down!

Reply

The returns on the games on this site are a disgrace. Although they claim similar return to player percentage to other sites on the same games you consistently get at least 20% less returns the games also start playing slowly which almost always means you are going too lose. If you enjoy losing your money without getting any value or decent gameplay this site will deliver that. I would not recommend this site to my worst enemy. Definitely one too avoid
