waynecoyne Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 my normal stake is £20 which I consider a small bet in bookmaking terms increasingly however I find bookies refusing to take £20 and offering £10 for example instead a prime example of this is stan james who I thought were bigger than this Ladbrokes and bet 365 will usually take a £20 bet without restriction there all also lots of 'smaller' bookies like sportingbet for example who offer you 50p does anyone have advice on who will take a small bet without complaint or downscaling?

steeljs Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Dont know where are you from but you can try Pinnacle, for them the minimum bet is 25 euro Are you interested only in sportsbook? I would recommend exchanges - there are few chances that the bookie will interfere bcoz you place the bet agains others and here the bookie will not lose money in case you win.

waynecoyne Posted May 4, 2018 Author Share Posted May 4, 2018 this is a good one: boylesports- the last 2 times I have tried to place a bet they have cut the odds while I was depositing I went ahead nevertheless and was refused as 'they have automatic risk control in place' I rang up to query and they hung up on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy2shoes Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Stan James are truly shocking and after a small time with i just closed the account down, they restricted ALL Bets to a Max of £25, they should just open a bakery or library or something because they are certainly NOT Bookmakers Ladjokes, Mmmmmmm where do we start, They have chucked promotional money on adverts to the likes of, Chris Kamara, Ally McCoist, Brian Blessed and now Jay from The Inbetweeners It's a shame they can't spend some money on MOST of their shops as they are FAST becoming rundown shite holes and if you gave MOST of the staff HEROINE it would perk them up And into the mix i had a nice win a few weeks ago and within minutes i got an email saying they can no longer offer me BOG Thanks Ladjokes Ladbroke life My Arse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never used an agent myself so I can't really comment. I always advise people to keep the amount of money they have sitting idle in a bookmaker account or exchange account to a minimum - especially if your funds are not protected in the event of said company becoming insolvent. I know it's tedious but always read the t's & c's when it comes to player fund protection - it varies between vendors. Keep as much of your gambling bankroll in the bank as possible at any one time. It's safer for you and it helps to protect the world financial system as an added bonus. The age of the individual along with the freedom of the individual will only survive if we act responsibly as an individual. The caveat to all this is that often bookmakers are charged when a player deposits, withdraws or both. It's one of many factors that can make a bookie limit or ban you quicker if you're a winning punter and make lots of transactions. The way to negate this is have lots of accounts with different bookmakers and exchanges and make smaller deposits with each. If you're a high roller then exchanges are the sustainable way to go, again I can't comment on agents because I haven't used them up to this point.

I'm still trying to find a safe way. I have some friends in Spain and most of them bet through an agent. I'll ask them to check. I understand losing money at betting is normal, but once i met a guy that told me he lost all his investment in a bookie (dont rememmber the name) cause the deposit was with crypto and he has waited more than a year and the bookie is just inventing the excuse that with them is not possible to withdrawal with cryptos!!! WTH?? in first place, why do they receive deposits with it if theyre not able to give you your money back?? i guess through an agent you avoid that.
