SkyBet Review

For such a huge site, they should be ashamed to pick on their punters and treat us like criminals. They tried intimidating me by 'security' after I withdrew winnings. Seems like they hate people winning. FILTHY CRIMINALS just like alot of other casinos.

Wow….I am totally astonished by their complete lack of customer care…I even emailed there MD not supprised I didn't even get an acknowledgment.
In my honest opinion the whole company have a dismissive approach towards their customers…they simply don't care and I am sure this review will also fall on deaf ears…very disappointing!!!

I emailed a complaint to Sky Bet 7 days ago which they aim to answer within 72 hours. Well guess what? 168 hours later I'm still waiting for a reply. You would think a company this big might invest a little in its Customer Services but obviously not.

The whole concept of Sky right across the so called business, absolute rubbish "customer service" has anybody suggested this idea to them yet oh no you can't can you there isn't anyone to talk to zzzzzzzzzz wake me up when they do

Worst website ever so hard to use add a flipping search bar you muppets

Very poor. As soon as I started winning they restricted my account. I was down quite a bit last year, then had a few good wins. Now restricted to very small bets. They only want losing punters, I understand the business model but how can this be allowed? The government needs to put a stop to this!

Will let you bet without been verified and stop you betting with no notice and keep what money they have belonging to you,you contact them through live chat and they all lie to you,they ate thiefs

Its possibly the worst platform for betting, I suggest they should be shut down, the whole company ruin football by fixing matches, honest people lose money on fair bets and they get all the money. Its not the same anymore and the world would be better off without these scamming betting apps. All you see is that the less predicted outcomes always win its a joke, I give them a year until they're found out and shutdown. If your reading this you feel the same way. So leave a review it won't go unnoticed

Possibly 0 rating to be honest. Worst betting platform once you start winning they restrict your account. Dont use them.

I placed a bet on a goals galore 12 teams, due to the weather the Port Vale V Morecambe game was delayed. As a result I only needed Morecambe to score but as I wanted to watch the Grand National I decided to cash out. I clicked cash out then confirm cash out and watched the race. I logged back in later to find my bet had lost so after spending most of the night trying to get on live chat failed first time, let me get from 44th to 8th in the queue before an error then eventually having gone to the back of the queue I got through to someone only to get timed out then after ages in the queue again finally got through to get oops sorry must have been a technical issue. Cash out seems to be a cash cow for bookies as they can claim technical issue not our fault with no questions asked as I also has issues with Ladbrokes previously. I am just glad it wasn't a large amount but it would have been better in my pocket than theirs. As I was told in gambling you pay to learn and I think I have finally learnt to give the online bookies a wide berth or at least Sky Bet and Ladbrokes and I have only tried them two if these are reputable bookmakers I would hate to deal with un-reputable ones.

I am totally against betting ads appearing while watching sky TV, Unfortunately I've seen the devastation online gambling does to persons mental health and the financial devastation to their families, please please stop these ads they are killing peoples homelives. Please stop betting u are putting a match 2 ur money stop now, by the way I gave this site 1 star otherwise it wouldn't let me continue

I have been with skybet and gaming for years I am 71 yrs old and in all my life I have not been treated as badly as I have recently up until a few months ago I would have had no complaints but recently there has been quite a lot of technical issues with there app ie several times I went to do a bet and it would not allow me stating that there was insufficient funds when in fact there was more than enough to cover the bet I was doing when I complained in the feedback column several times and nothing was ever rectified they decided to suspend my account with a substantial sum of money still in an which I could not get access to it I have tried on numerous occasions too many too remember and my account is still suspended 10 weeks later they have sent emails stating that I would be contacted by a member of their staff within 72hrs I am still waiting this company should be reported to the gambling commission and closed down completely as they are nothing but thieves and scammers any body who has any good to say about them must either be very lucky or getting paid to put in a good review as any on that I know feels the same as myself my advice is ( STAY CLEAR ) I also would give zero stars if possible.

My first good review of a bookie

Great offers great service, instant settlement and crediting. only way to improve would be a 2up early payout promo

apparently the cards are random… but if is a blackjack game where you can bet on pairs hardly ever comes in…. you bet on a game where you can't bet on pairs they come in every other hand…ive seen 3 x perfect pairs on the run…..amazing…….

Terrible service. Didn't pay out my bet which won. A proper cowboy company. How are these allowed to trade at all. Shamballs.

0 stars these crooks deserve. I’ve just close my account as it’s a total fix. Every roulette spin is on a number I don’t have anything on and every blackjack the dealer wins. How can the dealer always get 20 and constant 21. Thieves

Would give 0 if possible. Astounded that Jeff Stelling is prepared to have any association with this bunch of crooks. EVERY single time I place a bet on the correct score of a football match, if I try to cash out, they ALWAYS seem to suspend the bet. On 3 seperate occasions this has happened, only for a goal to be scored soon after and then surprise surprise I have lost my bet !
When you deposit money it is immediate, when you try and withdraw 🙄 they make it borderline impossible, with ‘can’t connect right now’ and other delay tactics to keep your money with them. Even then, when you finally get the withdrawal done it takes up to a WEEK before you receive your funds!!
I am in no way a sore loser, I can simply recognise a cheat & a scammer when I see one and SkyBet, that is you !! When you contact their customer services to discuss your issue, they just don’t want to know. You are treated with disdain and arrogance. Biggest mistake you EVER make is downloading their app.
May I suggest to all who read this that there a far fairer and more honest companies out there such as Betfair & Bet365 that deserve your bets !!

This is an important message to everyone with a sky bet account. Do not play their online scratchcards, slots or live games. They are a waste of money. All they do is take your money and give a little back and then take it all back again. It is an endless cycle. You are not going to win big money playing these games, it is all false advertising. All the games are controlled by computers. Even the live games. Do not fall prey to this liberty taking company. Be smart people and think twice before you use this company again. If you really want to have money in the future, the best way is to save as much as you can when you get it.

Just another muppet betting firm!
Have used Skybet on and off for several years now – everything is hunky dory when you the punter lose but start lumping on winners and wait for their attitude to change!
Won about 700 in the fall of last year then placed a 200 bet on an 11/4 shot
which came second at 5/4 – their oddsmakers are idiiots – they then e-mailed me to inform me that their 'account liability management team' had swung into action and that I could only have pitiful amounts on sine die effectively stopping me betting!
I've got a new jingle for them –
Skybet – it matters more when you can get on!

Come to log into my account and I was told it was closed. I had only ever signed up and that was it. Spoke to customer services and they said it was a "business decision" stupid as I had only just signed up!
I will use other bet agents instead!

I have never had such a bad service from any organisation that offers the same facilities of skybet. I disputed a bet that had won & sent them several documents. I also disputed something and they blocked my account instead of getting it resolved. They won’t allow me access & have advised that it will remain blocked.

Been playing roulette in casinos and online for decades..and most major sites now are reasonable re reuturns..but Sky net is not!!!!..if you bet small your returns are reasonable and a fair chance…every time i have increased over past 6 months ..have lost..so ONLY BET SMALL..

Not happy that they voided my 'next London mayor' bets esp. after saying that they would keep them open after the 2020 election was postponed. I was on some really good bets with great odds.

But service otherwise has been fine/good. Yes, I've had to contact them more than once to settle a bet that wasn't settled on time (most recently 7 days afterwards) but customer service did always fix that.

Like most bookies they've restricted my stakes and banned me from promos because I'm good at picking value bets, so they only want 'mug punters'.

It took more than the normal protocol for me to get my money withdrawn from them. First they kept using delay tactics with me in ensuring my money is not given to me by requesting all sort of documents. Later, they requested an exorbitant withdrawal fee which I paid reluctantly. It was when they requested for a document which I had provided earlier, I figured something might be wrong. I reported my situation to Mrs Joanne a renowned recovery specialist Joannedawn56 via email and I got my money back after a long charge-back process.

I won on the ITV7 game back in September. Skybet didn't pay out until nearly 2 months later. During which time they asked for bank details, which I gave them, then they paid the money into another account. So I am checking the account that I have given them and moaning that my money hasn't been paid. When it had been paid into another account that is not used that much. Also I am looking for a payment from skybet and the payments come from a company called Hestview Limited. I have posted this review for two reasons one to make people aware of how skybet work and when checking for winnings don't expect it to say skybet.

I'm quite a new customer on sky bet but so far so good. Nice wins and the funds reach my account within about 24 hours. I like the way its laid out, everything is easy to find.

Have had a Sky Bet account for over 10years which i have used the same bank details for that account, usually gambled and lost. The past few months ive started winning regularly and withdrawing the winnings. Month before Xmas Sky Bet server went down for 24hrs, when it returned the option to withdraw money had gone. Contacted Sky via Live Chat to explain the problem where i was asked for account details, which were provided. Was asked for the address i was living at when the account was created, which i explained i wasnt sure of which address i was living at when the account was created. I gave the call handler the 3 addresses that i had lived at to be told i had provided the wrong address and my account was suspended. Provided details but still refuse to let me back into account. Customer Service is a complete joke, continually moving the goal posts and still refusing to to unblock my account which is paramount to theft. Sky Bet are the worst Betting site i have ever used, absolute disgrace and have only suspended the account as they dont like losing money. AVOID AT ALL COST, NOTHING BUT CROOKS.

Absolute reprobates…they have been allowed to punch way to far above their weight…and are getting away with it, after winning a substantial amount of money they suspended my account they’re trying to find a way not to pay out…after providing all the ID they requested, I then received a telephone call from some wannabe worm of a security guy, who was intimidating and threatening trying to suggest a third party involvement, come on people they’re using an off shore tax haven…one of these fine days someone will drag them through their own mud that they have created, and I can’t wait to read about it in the press, customer service..What customer service! I myself will make it known to everyone who will listen what Absolute Crooks these people are…and I intend to fight them every step of the way. STAY AWAY….

They use OPTA to score some of their markets which allows them to manipulate the results. They settled 2 winning bets as losers. Tried to contact them which is almost impossible, using the online chat was the only way. Didn't check my query & had no intention of helping. They told me to screenshot the conversation if I wanted a record & then promptly cut the conversation before I could do it. Now I have to take it up with the Gambling Commission. Complete scumbag organisation, avoid at all costs.

Played as a loyal customer for weeks and they just banned me from all promotions on a whim. Is it because I’m a whopping 80 up? Come on Sky, you should be bigger than that and your customer service representative- who you wait for hours for – should be more than the awful Stepford reps they are. Awful company – don’t waste your time.

I placed a bet on Vardy +1 shot on target (Lei – Crystal Palace match). He did not start the match and cash-out option was available in the first half for 10 pounds (stake amount). He than was brought in as a sub and played for 26 minutes without a shot on target. Any other bookie i bet with (at least 4) would consider t this bet voided. The sky rules description online dont have this particular market, but has player most shots on target which state that the bet would be void, if the player does not start the match. In this case, they stolen so much money by offering enhanced offer with their own rules, which are different than any other bookie in the UK. I would advice to avoid at any cost, they cannot be trusted. Customer Support did nothing to fix this, just saying they understand the frustration, bla.bla.. I have a couple of more bets for this week which i already placed and then leaving them for good.

Not even worth 1 star, they change there statistics more then katie price changes blokes, but obviously they don’t accept reliability for putting up the (wrong) statistics, which was actually the right statistics, but they’ve clearly got a bunch of tards working for them who can see a shot on target. Full on scam site, don’t bet on here.
