SkyBet Review

I have used SkyBet's sports book for years. The issue I have had is with a bet on a tennis overs market. The same totals markets that are offered on tennis normally were displayed on this match. The format of the match however was a very abnormal format that is never used in the regular season. Normally it is best of three sets. This was best of three but a tiebreak is played as the third if both players win a normal set. In this case, my selection would have won in the normal format that is used all year, as both players won a set and a third set would have been played for my total. In this unusual format, the total went under as the third set isn't played to it's full games potential. There was absolutely NO clarification on the match listings that this very unusual format of tennis was being played, yet they still were offering the exact same total markets that are used in the regular format of tennis. This is very poor on their part, as they should take some responsibility of at least making customers aware of changes to sports formats, particularly ones that almost never happen. Failing this, they could have, at the very least, lowered the totals they allowed us to wager on, but used the regular totals they display in full best of three tennis. I most certainly would have NEVER bet on this market if I had known this, and when I expressed this to customer support, their trading team essentially admitted that they werent making customers aware of this significant change to the format on the listings, and I was offered no help or consolement on the issue that cost me a lot of money. While this is not exactly a scam, its hardly short of that. Very bad practices on their part that allow customers to lose out under unjust circumstances. Disappointed as a loyal customer.

Joined them a few weeks ago played blackjack casino thinking sky is reputable I lost over 2000 which is okay but it logged me out in the middle if game even though I had good internet connection, and I lost a hand made me stick on 5 against an ace !

They don't even entice you with a fair chance! The roulette is tacky and basically downright awful. If you don't believe me, waste your money with these mugs.

Sky bet stole my money.
User=Everton2021
Through some link they have with a poker account, they did not have years ago, but years ago I excluded from this poker account, they since joined with it, now in retrospect, they froze me and stole my money.

Small claims court next. Thieving bar stewards.

Don't touch them, they will twist everything in their favour, even when things look absolutely a mistake.
They are a disgrace.
See you in court THIEVES!!!!!

If I could give ZERO I would.

THIS WEBSITE IS A CON. They have kepted my balance for over 5 and half years. I am permanently self excluded. They make a permanently self excluded member ring them after he stopped gambling i have emailed and rang them so many times but they stolen my balance.

I been asking for my balance from the start. I quit gambling after the shocking experience here. They stole my balance and never resolved it. They made a problem gambler who quit to keep coming back to them to ask for balance this is against responsible gambling. It does seem fair that they got fined for keep self excluded members money but they did it to me before this and ukgc should investigate everything.

My second point is a self excluded. After my terms was nearly up i went on live chat to open my account during the process the chat disconnected. They should have suspended my account until they could confirm that the process was complete. I went on to chat and the agent agreed that they would suspended the account until all protocol where followed i have screenshot s7of this.

I will post the court date here. If anyone has had any experience please

Had a Sky bet account for a few years now. My favourite bookie, never a problem with payouts on winnings. Only bet on sports, would never touch the casino stuff, but that's a personal choice. Even gave customers a free bet when a horse didn't come out of the stalls, and when he did junp he was already 10 lengths or more adrift. Not many would do that. I garuntee all the moans on here are people not reading terns and conditions properly. Top bookmaker.

I have been with a sky a while now, I find most customer service rude, I have on few occasions now been wrongly paid via offers , you try to speak to these people half the time they don't know what offer, a few times I have had in play 10 percent of the winnings up to 50 in a week I have 2 of these football and general 10 percent of in play, you speak to customer service they just say we go on spread sheet but common sense say you get 10 perce in play back you get that , ok cash out and games not started don't count but as most people know to start in play get 10 percent if win example last wee I won 343.10p in a week not including stakes on in play part only I received 5.71 now to knowledge that's 34..03p I should have got not to mention no money back slot now for the 1o percent offer on football, now I do find you speak to staff it's more or less tough don't like don't play ,not the best attitude in the world , now I'm sure theres some nice customer service operators, but this is my review and would be curious to see if it's just me not receiving proper in play money back

Excellent service, always keep to their terms and side of the deal, NEVER a problem with payouts on promotions and bonuses unlike some other sites, good offers, free games and easy to use site.

Dirty thieving scumbags. Don’t use! Never pay winnings out and they steal your money. Scott from the fraud team is a complete and utter c**t who thinks fraud on your card is perfectly ok.

Skybet is the best betting app I have been on
Quick & easy to navigate & the promotions are fantastic. No1 app ☆☆☆☆☆

Bad customer service. Not helpful what so ever. Suspended my account and even after proof of documentation they still wouldn't sort anything. Spend my money elsewhere

Reply

Very poor customer service. I had a genuine query and was fed a standard response by their chat operators. I questioned the fact and in response they suspended my account because my wifes debit card was being used. A card that I had been using for months without them complaining. Beware of this company they are vindictive and fail to look into genuing querys

i want to give just 3 stars for small odds but i give 4 stars 🙂 because they have instantly withdraw if you have account barclay s or nationwide,never i had trouble with them maybe because just i play clean 🙂 sometimes when i m boring i play poker

Same as another reviewer! Cant win nothing on slots etc for about the last 10 weeks( since lockdown) definitely been switched to tight mode! Other sites more generous👍 something very dodgy going on at sky bet?

Reply

decent application and good promotions…5 free after 5 free bets, although incredibly annoyed that you have to keep opting in! Also they're player is useless, I often place bets on live football but can never see the matches..They provide basic help scripts to troubleshoot. Been a member for 5 years and never worked on an system, PC, Phone or tablet..

Was ok ,on start-up of Sky bet app turns my off.errrm useless it is.unbelievable Jeff.

Sky bet is a total rip off .all it does is take your money never ever pays out any win for instance it will take 200 pounds and give you a total return of 10 pounds if your very lucky

Reply

Found the slots to be total theft, you have no chance to win at all. Bonus games when they do happen, pay out less than the cost of the spin.
Worst online gaming experience I've ever had. In my opinion they should be charged with fraud.

Reply

Would give 0 stars if i could, no such thing as a win on sky, you just get rinsed for every penny you put in. Daylight robbery. The tables especially the virtual roulette are extremely rigged against you. Bunch of scamming hooligans and thats put nicely. It loves to give you a run of 14 blacks when you put red everytime but never gives you the same runs in your favour. Deleted the app and removed my card details. Will be advising people to stay away.

Worst betting site by a country mile!!!

Still waiting on payment which they say has been paid. Been nearly a week and no payment. Customer service a joke.

Reply

Like the review below if it's still there avoid sky been waiting for a withdrawal of usually have they say they don't have it my bank say they don't and they both tell me nothing is wrong but clearly something is

Reply

Customer service from the dark ages. There is something very sinister about how they keep your money and become very elusive when you try and get in touch with them. Avoid at every and all costs.

Reply

" BEWARE" Skybet has at this moment got withdrawals problems I am waiting to be paid money, so I recommend no one join this betting company until there withdrawals problems have changed.

Believe it or not since this coronavirus has hit I’ve not one a single dime on this dreaded 2 bob site so people do the right thing and keep your money in your pockets they are robbing people

Roulette what a scam I bet between 1 and 30 and 31 to 36 came in 12 times in row make your own mind up

Reply

I really like the platform and can’t find anywhere that is as good but after 3 years of being a loyal customer I have decided not to
Use SkyBet anymore.
I have recently in the las 6 weeks been killing it where I was up by about 1000 once tarting to play with sky. 2900 this year but over three years only 1000 up.
Sky bet have started to remove my cash out facility and put heavy restrictions on me capping my maximum stake. Make ing it impossible
For me to carry on in my current betting strategy!

More bad reviews for his disaster of a company. Winning bets / going to withdraw much needed winnings and then hit with an account suspension and requiring all kinds of personal docs and information to get it unlocked – and it will take 6 days for them to look at it! Total disaster of a company!

Be warned this site's slot games are more corrupt than a politician

Stay away from sky Vegas and casino. You have no chance when betting on the slots. I'm more than happy to lose if I am being greedy and I have done reviews saying this but skybet doesn't give you the chance to be greedy. Absolute con artists.. avoid wasting your money.

Tested this site and deposited a total of 40 and played King Kong Cash kept count how many times was spun a chance of getting the Kong feature in total the feature was available on 54 occasions but only successful 7 times that is roughly a 13% success rate that tells you that this site is very poor

Struggling with online chat and stake restrictions are severe

Absolute shambles of a betting firm! Worst prices and terrible traders who are so slow Updating prices that its quicker to run to your local bookie and put a cover bet on than wait for their traders who are all surely aged 6 or under! Shambles keep clear guys! Me done with them.
