As the last thread is almost full, here is a nice fresh clean one.

In a nutshell, matched betting is a clever way of making ££££ from the bookies without ever having to gamble.

When you select your bets to use the freebies on coral, on the betting slip there should be a drop down box to select one of your free bets for the stake. Double check its your free bet being used as stake and not your real money before confirming.

I'd withdraw my real money first but that's just me. Your free bets may win at coral end and it might be easier to keep track if you withdraw everything all in one go rather than several smaller transactions. Just double check its using freebie if you have a real money balance when placing.

MaidOfStars thanks for advice i'm just worrying that my profit isn't calculating or something - i'll have a good look at it later and check its all adding up. I've got two more wagers to do before I can withdraw anything.

MrsWombat · 27/04/2017 17:22

MaidOfStars Yes! Blush This was before I realised they were the same company. My Betfair account seems unaffected although I am slightly concerned. It might just be that they didn't like me winning all my bets then wanting to withdraw them. Confused

MrsWombat · 27/04/2017 17:31

Interesting reading. Well for me, who knows nothing!

neonrainbow · 27/04/2017 18:04

I've had my first reload offer! Not sure whether to do it or not. I was going to do all my free bets first.

MrsWombat · 27/04/2017 18:29

neonrainbow I've been doing mine as I get them in case there are time restrictions on them.

MaidOfStars · 27/04/2017 18:41

Can you post the details of the reload offer? I'm unsure what format they take.

neonrainbow · 27/04/2017 18:47

It's from william hill:

Simply place a bet of £10 and we will hand you 3x £5 free bets – this applies to any sport bet you place over the next seven days.

HeyRoly · 27/04/2017 18:53

I'm getting really annoyed with 188Bet. I have £20 of free bets sitting in my account, but as their odds change lighting fast, they are never what Oddsmonkey says they are. Site is super slow to load as well.

I've wasted so much time this afternoon waiting for the site to load, only to find that the back/lay odds aren't a close match at all, so there's no point placing the bet.

imnottoofussed · 27/04/2017 19:09

I had the William hill reload offer so I used it and since then I've had another to use this week.

MaidOfStars · 27/04/2017 19:37

How many mug bets to trigger WH reloads? I have one tonight and money in my account.

MaidOfStars · 27/04/2017 19:38

(I only signed up to WH yesterday. Turned over both QB and FB last night)

neonrainbow · 27/04/2017 20:16

I haven't done any mug bets with anyone but i only bet on the english premier league.

OverthinkingSpartacus · 27/04/2017 20:20

@heyroly

188 took ages to load for me too, I switched browsers to opera and it's much much better.

I've only done my QB bet and 188 odds matched OMs but they lay odds at betfair didn't, was only a difference in pennies for qualifying loss though.

How's everyone done profit wise up to now and how long have you been going?

I hit £100 profit today, started on the 23rd I know it's not as high as others but for an hour or so a day effort for five days I'm happy..

titchy · 27/04/2017 20:40

£370 profit! Blush

12 new accounts over nearly two weeks, all intro offers, one reload offer and one enhanced odds offer all used. Now waiting for more reload offers....

SandyDays · 27/04/2017 20:50

Wow titchy that's amazing well done!

NeegansWife · 27/04/2017 20:50

Does anyone know if 188Bet credit your free bets straight into your wallet in your account? I'm used to seeing free bets in separate sections on all the other bookies websites, this is the first one where I'm £20 up in my wallet instead.

imnottoofussed · 27/04/2017 20:51

Not sure how quickly william hill sent me anything but it was definitely only a few days after placing my qualifying bet and winning.

I'm still struggling with recording my risk free bet from unibet - my brain is boggled!

On one section of oddsmonkey it says to treat risk free as stake not returned but on the actual unibet tutorial it says to use the qualifier as risk free and the follow up bets as normal.

So I am completely lost with what i've done so far and how to record it on ultimatcher.

Can anyone help?

I paid in £30 to unibet - back bet £30 at 6.5 and lay £25.88 at 6.6 - won at exchange - loss £5.41 but now have a free £30 at unibet.

Following instructions on oddsmonkey I placed a low odds normal - back bet £30 odds 1.55, lay £31.42 odds 1.53 - a loss at exchange of 15p giving a bookie balance of £46.50.

Placed a 2nd wager at unibet to try and withdraw the funds or win them back - back bet £30 at odds 4.35 lay £33.04 odds of 4.00 - this wins at exchange giving a profit of £1.39, leaving me a balance of £16.50 at unibet.

So I don't know how to record my bets on ultimatcher to start with, I put the first one on as qualifier with special bonus. The second two on as qualifiers. I can't figure out how much profit I have and how I wager again so I can withdraw from unibet - I have to wager the bonus 3 times in order to withdraw.

Im about 100 up including cashback through quidco. I've done 4 bookies.

louisejxxx · 27/04/2017 21:08

Ooo had an email from betfair about a free £2 go on deal or no deal in the arcade.

SecretNortherner · 27/04/2017 21:18

After a few minor stuff ups I've got the hang of it. Started out with a £40 float and have about £100 profit floating between exchange and various different bookies as well as waiting for money to be refunded to my bank. I've been going since just before Easter so slowly finding my feet.

A few people have said about alternatives to bank accounts... try skrill or Paypal. These are alternatives to stop 30/40 bookie transactions a month on your card. Just check the t&c's of each bookie, sometimes you don't get the bonus if you sign up with skrill or PayPal.

louisejxxx · 27/04/2017 21:38

Hoping that the Manchester derby score stays the same so that all my money ends up in Betfair so that I can withdraw. Does anyone know how long it takes for funds to reach your account from Betfred and Betfair?

HeyRoly · 27/04/2017 21:50

I laid Man City as well, so I'd rather it stayed nil-nil too! I'd much rather the money went to the exchange.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 27/04/2017 22:04

I'm confused - I seem to have won on my bet and my lay Confused

Lay £3.57 at odd of 3.9 ( 3.57 back)
Back £5 (free) at odds of 3.75 (won 13.75)
