Ive read discussion on OM where people are grubbed before they've even deposited.
I know OM links are supposed to be safe but I always navigate my way to the site and bets away from OM. I've noticed that sometimes the new sign up offer from hitting the bookies is different to what OM says and I winder if that can be a flag? NetBet for eg, on OM the sign up offer is a £50 bonus (making a risk free bet) but going via Google is a bet £10 get £40 free bet. The OM sign up off is still valid but I wonder if clicking to the site and landing on a older sign up offer, gives it away that you've arrived there via a third party site? I went the free bet offer as there's wagering etc with the £50 bonus. Less hassle.
I created a shrillness count but have not used it, read a discussion on OM and people seem to have very mixed feelings about it. They take percentage of your balance in fees, they also charge £5 per withdrawl to your own actual bank account, you can apply for a card that can be used in stores and online but again, you are charged. It appears though that if you hit bronze level, the card is free, if you hit goes level then cash withdrawals to your bank is free. Some open olé hate it and think it's dodgy but tigers love that it allows you to move money around quicker than waiting for it to hit personal accounts.
I don't mind using my current account. I keep track of every deposit and withdrawl, check everyday to see what's cleared, I've not been withdrawing from exchange as I know it'll be used in future offer so tbh the only ins and out are from bookies, which are slowing down now as I can afford to leave a little bit in the main bookies.
Won £3 bonus money on the free skybingo, its not withdrawable but if I win anything on a bingo game with it, it's mine :)
£30 profit from PaddyPower buy in match for blackjack, used blackjack strategy from OM. Have £40 free bets to place too.
Am trying to quit smoking as I may have COPD and have been listening to Alen Carr (not the comedian) audio book, you read it and just stop, no withdrawals etc, he has over 90 per cent success rate, I don't know if it's working but I've not had a cigarette at all today, haven't felt the urge and didn't even realise I hadn't had one. I always get withdrawals by end of day one on past attempts but haven't even noticed today. I'm hoping to add the money I'm not spending to my float.
Pretty good day for me in general really.
