I had to. I was getting jittery at the thought of no chat support for tonights match Grin

If anyone is trying to do a horses 2nd place on the York 2.20 can you let me know which horse your choosing?

titchy · 19/05/2017 10:27

Heyroly - decimal odds are fractional PLUS ONE, so 1/2 = 1/2 + 1 = 1.5. Similarly 4/5 = 0.8 + 1 = 1.8

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 10:28

I had a feeling that was the answer! I've never seen decimal odds below one after all. Never mind!

It's worth logging into your William Hill accounts guys - I had an inbox from them with a reload offer but I haven't had an email or text off them about it.

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 12:11

There is also a free £5 to use on Wish Upon A Jackpot if you click on the vegas part of the site.

I've made £22 this morning off two ten pounds free bets and a tenner qualifier bet.

I placed the bets Last night on horses running at York today, then waited until mid morning to lay them. It's a bit of a risk but I read the racing form guides and picked horses that were well tipped and therefore likely to be heavily backed in the run up to the race, meaning that odds change.
One horse went from 9 last night to 7 when I layed this morning.

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 12:32

I've just made £25 on william hill vegas - not only is there the free £5 on the slot I mentioned above, there is also a scratchcard which I got 5 free spins off and that's where I've made the money. Only X1 wagering on my free spins!

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 12:42

FFS! I went to William Hill (where did you see the reload offer louise, I don't seem to have an inbox) and did see a scratch card. Won five spins on a slot but accidentally hit spin and it took £2. And didn't see the free sodding spins!

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 12:43

How did you get £25 out of five spins? Did you not use any of your own money louise? I'm lucky to win 10p!

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 12:51

There's a little envelope next to the "deposit" link at the top of the page (the log out button is on the right hand side).

None of my own money used - free spins won me just under £3, then when I was doing the x1 wagering I had a big win and won about £20...then whilst finishing the wagering had a couple of £2 wins on top.

imnottoofussed · 19/05/2017 13:19

I won 40p on my free spins Confused

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 13:31

Figured out how to get the free spins.

Won nothing. Zero. Nowt. This is just my luck with casino games Grin

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 13:35

I'm on the mobile site and can't see an envelope anywhere. Either I'm a complete moron or the desktop site has completely different functionality. I've searched everywhere for an inbox!

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 13:46

Ah I see what you mean, I've just tried the mobile site and I can't see it either...can't see an option to switch to the full site either!

SierraJensen · 19/05/2017 13:53

I don't see the envelope either. Maybe we don't have a message and that's why? I got the scratchcard and won 5 free spins and then won a pound!

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 14:10

I'm so desperate for a free bet I'm now on live chat asking how to find my fecking inbox.

They don't know either Grin

Fluffycloudland77 · 19/05/2017 14:15

Has anyone signed their other half up to matched betting too?.

FiveHoursSleep · 19/05/2017 14:16

I've just come away with £30 profit from playing a lot of blackjack at Boylesport. I put in 20, they gave me 20 and I came away with £50. Had to wager £800 but I stuck to the OddsMonkey strategy and it worked well ( was up and down though- highest point £93, lowest £35!)

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 14:19

I haven't got my oh to do it as most offers are 1 per household and it's supposedly one of the fastest ways to get your accounts gubbed.

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 14:20

Roly maybe try asking if there's a way to view the full site on your mobile?

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 14:22

Yeah, I mean I already hunted around for a "desktop site" link but couldn't find one. Annoying.

I got disconnected from live chat Hmm Poor guy didn't know what to suggest anyway.

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 14:23

Yes I've been hunting as well because I feel bad that is was my suggestion that's causing you grief Grin

HeyRoly · 19/05/2017 15:01

Haha! Honestly, I've had the shittest luck this week. Just decided to try betting on virtual sports and, obviously, lost.

But it's a matched bet so I'll get my stake back from Betfred to bet again. Fingers crossed I at least break even Confused Oddsmonkey say there's only one outcome out of four in which you'd lose money...

louisejxxx · 19/05/2017 15:10

My week has been the same up until today - I was honestly starting to really lose heart with it all because I just haven't been getting anything in the way of freebies or reloads coming through. Maybe Friday is the day for that sort of stuff.

Fluffycloudland77 · 19/05/2017 15:45

I've got £195 in Betfair but it will only let me withdraw £155.

Why is this?.
