Placed a bet on a football game . Apparently the bet ends after 90 minutes . Extra time is not included. I bet on a match result, not on how long the match would last. Thieves.

So, last night I qualified for the free £5 weekly skybet offer and the app showed that I had qualified but all of a sudden the free bet disappeared. I contacted skybet today asking why this happened and was told I'd cashed out a bet. The only bet that was cashed out was the Harry Maguire winning bet. I could not have won anymore or lost anymore on that bet so I did cash it out. The winnings were the winnings on that bet. I explained this on skybets twitter but again I was told because I'd cashed out the bet I had not qualified for the £5 free bet. Please be aware of this. I'll be closing my skybet account shortly.

Like most bookies Skybet do the same , although I did think up to this point they were better. After a big 2k win off a horse yesterday I found today I had been stake restricted, no explanation given except it was a decision by the trading team yadda yadda They would be quite happy to take someones money whom was on a losing streak but don't like when you win. Why even open this type of business then? Quite frankly I believe it's legally grey as it does border on discrimination, can you imagine a restaurant refusing to serve someone x amount of food or tesco saying you can't buy as much as shopping as someone else. You either treat all your customers equally or you shut down. Hopefully Parliament will be applying more scrutiny on bookmakers in the coming years.

FRAUDULENT WEBSITE - They should all be locked up. I placed a bet and It came in, meaning I won, but they won't pay out as it says 'within the 90 min' ...when I was placing the bet it did not say anywhere that it was within the 90 min, they conceal their rules elsewhere within the website, this is how they con so many people daily out of their money, this is FRAUD

Disgusting service, they don't let me withdraw the money, every time I want to withdraw they suspend my account. Worst service I received by far, I had my account suspended for two weeks and nothing happened, don't use it, please.

if Skybet wont let you withdraw or access your money, contact thisisgambling.com ASAP!! it is illegal for them to withhold your money and they would not keep getting away with this! thisisgambling.com currently have an open court case against them and are willing to help those customers who's money was stolen!

Awful experience. Tried to cash out a bet but was not available because they lost connection to the game - or so they say. Following a complaint got a really rude reply. Live chat was also rude and did not pay any attention to what I was writing. App now deleted, will never use again. Definitely a company to avoid.

I have used Skybet for a large number of years and cannot understand why they are given such a low rating here. I have read some of the reviews and it seems people have had individual problems but I have never had an issue. It is the most user friendly gambling website I have used and they have very regular promotions, much more so than other bookmakers I have seen. Only reason I don't give them 5 stars is the customer service could be better and somewhat more polite.

sky bet is STEALING customers money!! gambling commission is doing nothing to help users get their stolen money back! it is gambling commissions job to prevent crime, so why is sky bet getting away with stealing thousands every single day!! thisisgambling.com seem to be the only company speaking about this issue and the only company that's actually trying to help customers!! dont trust sky bet they will steal your money!!!

I would not recommend this betting company to my friends. My view has changed through the pandemic as Skybet have "moved the goalposts" to give them a bigger advantage. For instance, their best odds in horse racing. Now they do not offer best odds on extra place races. Today, 17th June @ Royal Ascot there are 7 races and 5 are extra place races.... someone has done the math and offering an extra place or two must give them a bigger advantage than paying best odds on that race. As if they dont make enough money. Bring back best odds on all races. Thats what attracted me to Skybet in the first place. I think I will take my money elsewhere..

All the suggested bets where terrible at euro 2020's don't use suggested bets as they are proven not accurate. Use the promotional offers you might win off. Terrible gambling app.

Have decided not to honour a recent offer by refusing to pay out customers on Bale having a shot on target against Switzerland. If you can't trust a bookmaker to pay out in the event of you winning your bet what's the point in placing a bet with them?

before I start I actually rate skys sports betting as 1 of the best, BUT over the space of 1 week I've spun nearly 2500 spins on 1 game (not all my own money, little wins here and there) and not landed a bonus once, 2500!!!!!!! that's absolutely disgusting. stick with sky for your sports betting but never, ever, ever play their slots.

The only good thing is faster withdrawals. Bad odds for sport and the games are very low RTP, one of the worst in fact.

flooded with extra place races with no value. Then extra place voids best odds gaurantee. Rule 4 yesterday 20p but sky was 40p and no one to answer questions why they took 20p more than EVERY OTHER bnookie...Accas or L15s they rip you off. First race NR so void and now down to a treble. Can you cash out your stake and replace the bet with another pick??? Nooooo its a cashout offer less than half your stake. Got to be the worst online bookie going and have left after just toooo many rip offs with no customer service available to query any of it.... Avoid

Had a bet on a horse, he started running too far ahead of the rest so I decided to cash out when it popped up as an offer. I pressed ‘Cash Out for £15’ I then pressed ‘Confirm Cash Out’ button. After the race, no cash was paid out. Contacted SkyBet, was told that’s just bad luck that the cash out didn’t go through and “we will not be paying you out for your bet”. Outrageous, and it was only £15 - given how much I’ve given them over last 12 months I will never give them another penny. Never, Never, Never use SkyBet.....

Was going to place a bet on the Europa league final and deposited £240 to my account. Had a think about it and decided against it. Tried to withdraw MY MONEY and they suspended the account. Had an email asking to send my Driving License, Utility Bill, and screenshot of my paypal account. Done it 3 times, spoke to live chat twice... not even an acknowledgement from them. This wasn't winning, this was my money from my bank.. Thieves, plain theft.... never even placed a bet. Not sure if I can report it to the Police

They give u wrong odds deliberately then instantly change it after you’ve put your bet then they eliminate that game so you can’t bet on it again it’s a huge scam even in horses they misinform so I’m switching to William hill

rip off or scam you decide, been using sky for a while, but now it just seems a waste off time, early prices are always always one of the top 2 for least value, site crashes or freezes regular, prize machine free spin offers the worst freebies on the net, and as for the poker its expensive compared to other bookies poker and the cash you win for your entry is CR*P, , if you try to complain it takes ages and in my experience is never ever sorted propley, dont be a mug go some where else to open an account and if you have an account close it and move your cash else where, or expect a crap service crap freebies and crap customer for the rest of your stay with sky, stay and be a mug a very very big mug

What a joke. This company should be closed down with immediate effect. Spent an hour trying to sort out my online accounts with them. Questions of the questions of the questions. Also they restrict your spending so it’s impossible to win back any money: avoid avoid avoid.

Placed an each way bet on the PGA Championship. When it won on a placed finish they paid out about 1/3 of the advertised 1/5 odds. They pointed to the each way terms which state that if that place is shared with other competitors the each way odds are split. On review, you have to click through 2 discrete links from the point of sale page to find these terms. These links are in grey font - no doubt intentionally so that people don't see the catch before placing the bet. Customer service staff are obnoxious too. Won't be dealing with them again and advise you not to.

Scum and Scam!!!! Had a 10 fold on today. A £5 paid out £3000 as Spurs where 2-1 down it offered me £40. 3 mins prior to Spurs equalising they had cashed me out for £36, at full time the bet had fully come in and now are refusing to pay out the £3000 that I should off won. They say a fraud claim has been made but we all know where this is going. I’m certainly 100% losing my winnings. To strip such a large amount off money from a person because they have been done over with a bet is a horrendous.....I’m absolute fuming at it! Scummy site!!

Haven’t won any money this year (5 months). They have stopped my account and stopped all offers. Don’t bother opening an account look elsewhere, they don’t want your custom and they are not a “proper” bookmakers. Absolute disgrace of a company that won’t even discuss why!

Absolute theives!!! I have NEVER done a review before, but I am absolutely fuming. Won some money on a bet. They suspended my account. They asked me to send in my driving licence, my marriage certificate & my bank account. I done all of that, then they told me they have removed my account. I am not allowed to ever bet with them again & never to get another account with them. I asked for a phone number as I wanted to speak to another manager and they said no & they closed the chat. I am taking this further. They have my personal details & have not told me why. I want these removed. Absolute fraudsters. Disgusting!!!

Absolute criminals set up my account verified all that no problem placed a few bets won a few lost a few everything all good.Then i started winning large amounts of money this is when they decide they would ”temporarily” close my account because they wanted me to send in more documents so i did this exactly as they asked they then told me to contact their live chat team to book a call with there team so i waited about fifiteen minutes in line before i could talk to someone they gave me a number to call only the number was not real.When i went back into chat it had closed so i had to wait in line again to talk to someone i also asked if they could ring me beacuse i did not want to waste my credit they said no.Evantually i was able to get correct number had to wait fifiteen minutes before someone answered at which time my 20 euro credit had run out so call ended so i then had to top up again 20 euro. I managed to get through in 10 minutes this time and was able to schedule a call asap from them. I am currently waiting on that call. Hopefully i recieve that call soon and can get into my account to withdraw my money that i desperately need although knowing these criminals they will probably make me jump through a few more hoops first and make this whole proccess as stressful as possible for me. Absolute disgrace they are its all good when your losing money to them but as soon as you start winning money from them they do everything they can to try and shut you down and take your hard earned money.Steal from the poor give to the rich

What a scam artist place. Placed a bet on a game and then when they scored markets got suspended and I couldn’t cash out of it. I had placed a double and that game won so I was waiting for 20 min till they could get the game broadcast back and didn’t let me cash out . Had to painfully watch the other game loose after 20 min . Somehow miraculously when that game finished the other game was back on and showed the correct score . No refund given no remorse or apology. Just took my money and ran, so fishyyyyyu that they suspended the game and didn’t let it be broadcasted when the team scored absolute scan artists .

After being a customer for over a year, I was suddenly excluded from offers without any email or notification. I was betting all week and being advertised offers without any way of knowing this. This is terrible practice, I was risking my money without being told that my terms had been changed. I was being advertised offers which I was excluded from and then trying to qualify for them. Skybet have profited from misleading me in this way. That sounds illegal to me, I'll be looking into the issue. Support chat refused to say why I had been excluded and admitted that I was not contacted regarding the issue. A company the size of Skybet should operate with honesty and transparency. In this case they have acted incredibly shadily and I would certainly have spent less money with them this week had I actually known I was excluded from the offers I was taking part in.
