Thanks @titchy Really helpful. Will have a look tomorrow.

Whisky2014 · 25/10/2017 22:25

You did well titchy. I didn't make that over all the sites I played added together!

MissFitton · 26/10/2017 09:20

I had a go on one of the bingo sites yesterday and including my bonus I'm currently £4 down Hmm. I'm going to do some more reading up about it before I stake anything else.

HeyRoly · 26/10/2017 16:08

I've done four bingo offers and made a loss on three of them. I'm not going to bother with anymore!

Alittlepotofrosie · 26/10/2017 16:14

I dont understand bingo! I have just got my head around slots!

titchy · 26/10/2017 16:20

Not your fault titchy, it isn't risk free after all Smile

Whisky2014 · 26/10/2017 17:24

No its not risk free. However they say generally just by statistics you should gain more than you lose. Ones like the heart bingo deal and jackpot joy are profit makers because you use the refer a friend deal with the guy on team profit and oddsmonkey. (The split the referral bonus with yoh)

MissFitton · 26/10/2017 20:09

No worries titchy - I did go into it knowing they aren't risk free! Question though - as most of these bingo sites are the same company is it better to use the same username or, as with the bookies, have different ones? They'll have all your personal info so I can't decide if it's better to keep it consistent or not. Any ideas?

midgetjen · 27/10/2017 22:44

I've nearly completed the welcome offers and am looking at what to do next...are accas the next thing to look at? And is there anything to do with extra place offers at all?

noodleaddict · 28/10/2017 09:13

Placemarking! Looking to start this v soon so will no doubt come back with questions...

midgetjen · 28/10/2017 14:47

Just done my first inplay offer and found it a bit stressful as the odds kept moving! Think I will wait until half time next time!

mamahanji · 29/10/2017 13:16

I’m making my way through reading this thread as it’s really interesting. I definitely think that singing up for one of the guides and helpers will be invaluable. I don’t mind spending the money to make the money, but which one?

Odds monkey?
Team profit?
Profit accumulator?

Which one is the most comprehensive and helpful for a complete newbie?

Alittlepotofrosie · 29/10/2017 20:48

I learnt everything i needed off odds monkey, very easy to understand. I went with that as its cheaper.

titchy · 29/10/2017 21:22

OM here too.

Bingo - you can use the same email as your login but not same login - it recognises you! So I'm titchy1 on everything (well not exactly that!) but titchy2, 3 etc on the bingo sites.

I've got a £5 bingo credit from coral now (only just started via oddsmonkey), how to use that? Or will it be covered by OM?

DottyDotAgain · 01/11/2017 00:49

Eek! After watching this thread for ages and mulling over it all I've finally placed my first MBs this evening and now literally can't sleep because I feel so nervous about it all... I joined team profit, watched all the videos and have started with £100 via Betfair - places bets with Coral and Sky bet- all happening tomorrow evening (football!) - THINK I've done it OK but a bit of me is very worries I've done it all wrong, so I'm mentally pacing to see what my totals are by the end of tomorrow evening! If it all looks OK I'll keep going..! Grin

DottyDotAgain · 01/11/2017 17:54

Still pacing...! I had a couple of questions in the middle of the night last night - sorry if they’ve been asked lots of times before.

So I get the whole thing about placing a bet for Team A to win and then the other bet for Team A to lose, but what happens if Team A draws..? Confused

Also, does opening lots of betting accounts affect your credit rating..? I’ve only got a debit card and one bank account so have to use this to open the accounts - will it have any kind of negative impact?

Thanks everyone - might get some sleep tonight if it’s all gone well..!

titchy · 01/11/2017 18:38

The other bet (the lay bet) ISNT for team A lose - its for them to not win so the draw is covered that way.

Noodle - bingo bonus probably not worth it - it'll depend on the wagering
needed. It'll probably be 20 x or similar, so if you win £5 you have to then spend another £100 in order to withdraw that £5! But if it's free you may as well buy some tickets - you might be lucky and win £5, then strike a £1000 jackpot on the first go of your wagering.

Good luck!

In a bit of a rut at the moment. Not fancying some of the welcome offers that I’ve got left to do and can’t often find accas that haven’t got really odd leagues etc so I’ve not done a bet since early last month.

Whisky2014 · 01/11/2017 19:11

imnot I know what you mean. I have had a few this past month prob made 100 quid but it's definitely not the same as horsing through all the sign up offers. And I just can't be arsed doing bets for 2.50 here and there

DottyDotAgain · 01/11/2017 19:46

Thanks Titchy - you've put my mind at rest..!!

Sorry - have got one more question which was keeping me awake last night. I'm going to watch the videos again, but you know how the 2 x bets should be within 10% of each other, should the Betfair bet (the pink one!) be within 10% higher or 10% lower..?!

titchy · 01/11/2017 20:09

If the pink betfair odds are lower than the bookie odds then that's called an arb and you're making a profit even if it's a qualifying bet regardless of outcome! No more than 10% lower is the norm for a qualifying bet.

OP posts:
DottyDotAgain · 01/11/2017 20:57

So pink being lower is really good but pink being higher is also OK as long as I've used the match calculator?!

titchy · 01/11/2017 21:14
