Betfair Review

Wish they had zero stars

I didn't even have that much money and they blocked my account, and held up my money for months, they kept lying and saying they had to verify it, perhaps it is a slow process or they are just liars

either way you will lose your money and never see it again. I have a few hundred pounds lost to them and I can't afford a lawyer to get it back.

This company has turned out to be crooks. I think they are going bankrupt soon, as i've heard lots of similar stories of them refusing to payout

DO NOT DEPOSIT A CENT WHATEVER YOU DO

Use smarkets its great and has 8 hour withdrawal times. Verification is fast and easy. 0% Commission too.

The exchange is superb, a must to try, but the Sportsbook is a total joke!! Tried to have 40 on an early priced Greyhound.. They put up 4/1, but would only lay me 1,25p!!! Can you believe that?? Betfair Sportsbook is a total disgrace, and should be struck off!!!

What a joke and complete waste of time on live chat with these dikheds. I use my account that I've had for years at least twice a week for football betting. Today I placed 3 different bets. I wacth the one game that goes In my favour . I couldn't remember my other games so go to log in to check my bets. I can't access my account. It's been closed. Apparently I have another account that I can't remember that if has been used it hasn't been for years. They close my current account and tell me I can never access it again and that I need to use my old one. I may have won (although I'm pretty sure i didn't) but that's not the point. I have a right to see my bets I placed the same day. The lady on the chat wouldn't reason with me or call me even though I kept asking to speak to somebody over the phone. Wouldn't even acknowledge my request to be called. Kept telling me I can only use my old account. Apparently the phone lines have discontinued. Fishy? Joke? Bull! When I speak to someone on the betting lines they can access my account and tell me about my bets. Why can't I have my account back? You can see it . Fuc in joke of a company. I will never put another penny Into your company. Stick your betting where the sun don't shine. S h I t customer service. I'm fuming about the whole thing.
Done!
Ps. Your app is actually crap.
You should do coupon betting like on William hill app. when I want to do btts or match result & btts I don't have to keep going back and clicking on each game. Soooooo long . Soooo s h I t. So long fuc ers.

Has its problems, mainly with loss of platform performance, loss of streams, etc, but they're still a market leading company.

Hello. My name is Lillian Collier. My review of Betfair:
This is a typical fraudulent company that blocks your account after depositing money.
They ask for a bunch of documents that they then sell to the same scammers.
If you deposited funds with a credit card, ALWAYS write a complaint to VISA / MasterCard, they will chargeback your money to your card and sooner or later stop working with these scammers like Betfair

Tell the truth to all your friends. Save them from this crime. Where the police are looking …

take weeks to verify your account if you have money with them

withdrawal takes ages

USE SMARKETS INSTEAD. fast verification times, super fast withdrawals, way cheaper fees too.

wouldnt touch these guys with a bargepole

Reply

Considering they are supposed to be the biggest and best they are the opposite !

Poor platform, they display suspended markets for no reason, update ultra slow and with a pathetic poor service, high charges and crap experience tells you to all you need to know.

The **sports book is a **con with crap prices and they are intent on not just offering very poor service but fleecing you of any value when you do have a win.

Bookmakers are all the same these plebs are no different!
VERDICT ! CRAP

Don’t use them big scammers. As long you lose they very efficient as soon you need to resolve any issue there is no phone number no direct email address and live chat is only let them know then forget about it as you not going to get any reply. Live chat agent totally useless will terminate the chat before you come to any solution. Most of the time they don’t have a clue. If you wish to speak to someone you can’t my friend there is no one there for support beware recommend you not to use them at all.

For the second time this week I have been robbed by Betfair as once again I placed edged bets, reduced odds on place bets, only for Betfair to advise the each way box wasnt ticked LIARS as I had my bet checked before placing it
Stay well away from these conmen and bandits

Run by typical stupid, greedy people. UK bookmakers and exchanges are unscrupulous in that they will close/limit your account or stop you from betting in some way if you dare to win.

I don't know why they call themselves betfair because fair they are not. They have put me on a "premium charge" and want 20% commission. That is ludicrous. Goodbye and good riddance you bunch of numpty clowns.

It is a NO WIN – NO WIN situation. Either you lose like 95%+ of all gamblers or you win a few thousand and are stopped from betting. Stay clear of betunfair.

Betfair have suspended my account and are withholding my access to funds because I cannot provide them with a picture of my ‘Apple Pay Card’ that I’ve used to make payments to them with. Yep, that’s right an Apple Pay Card. The customer services rep seem wilfully ignorant that such a thing does not exist, and don’t seem to be aware of the mechanics of Apple Pay. Reading the other reviews on here I can only conclude that Betfair are now rogue and best avoided. If you use an exchange try Smarkets, Matchbook or Betdaq, anyone but these gangsters.

4/1/20… Kempton 4.40, Love my life 5/1 on course and the exchange had it at 10/1 right up until the off.All the appalling odds on the place side of the race in extra place races only started to appear when Paddypower bought Betfair about 2 years ago.How you would permit a bookmaker buying an exchange with all the possibilities for abuse that entails i have no idea.It is about time the monopolies commission had a bloody long hard look at what is being done.

Once again have just had the most pathetic customer service EVER. They have suspended my account because I was talking about the bad year I have had with personal issues losing my Job at end of year and son and ex partner who has Huntingdon's Disease. I was querying a loyalty bonus that was offered as didn't get a payment i was expecting today and wanted see if I could use it Monday or something and this cow decides to Suspend my account because I tell her about a few personal issues! Absolute p*ss takers they are

Absolutely shocking site. Total rip off. Don't waste your money on here you wont get a win. Betfair? More like notfair!!

Worst site ever. Worst customer service team ever. Absolutely biggest thief’s. I would advice you stay away from Betfair.

Went on a football match on the exchange it got abandoned at halftime , betfairs rules state if not played within 3 days you get you stake refunded , nothing happened got in touch with customer service , well if you can call it that ,they asked for my bet id , looked for it it had disappeared but my first half bet which I lost on was still there have bet fair got the rights to steal your money they should be rebranded betunfair , it's about time everybody boycott it for a week let's see what happens then

Placed a bet of 100 total return was 130. Money is taken out of my bank instantly but withdrawals take 2-5 days. Typical of these sites. I asked why and told it's the way it is! I bank with Lloyds. I'm informed if I banked with HSBC, BARCLAYS it's same day. What difference does my bank make if it's a major high street bank? It's time these online sites were ordered to pay out as quickly as they take the stake.

Why does it take so long getting Betfair to transfer money/winnings bk to your bank 😕😕 ??? Befair is pretty much a 364 day operation and most banks operate the same…n if it's possible to deposit at a weekend either to Betfair or for friends and family into our bank account….why does it take Betfair 5 days to make this transfer…not happy at all…Betfair do a fast cash transfer but only with 3 UK banks n guess what my bank is not one of them…it's all in betfairs favour n try contacting them about it…they dangle you with an agent for ages…so fellow punters beware 😢😢😢

I USE THE EXCHANGE MAINLY….. Best site for liquidity and choice of markets. Low commision now with the 2% option. Plenty of in play options. Very speedy withdrawal of funds into your account within a couple of hours. The best exchange around by far. I have tried others namely Betdaq and Matchbook but BETFAIR is by far the best.

It's the worse site I've ever used, the promotions and bonuses are non existence and the snow globe well I've not won once on it, and I suggest to players to go try a different etting site as you will be disappointed with betfair

Reply

I got 5 free spins off the snow globe on Tuesday to play buffalo blitz live and won 57.80 on the 1st spin, I’m not really a casino player just bet on football but every time they give free spins I do tend to win so they can’t be all that bad.

Same as many on here. Slots, arcade, jackpots are all a lie. This site is not accurate on rtp paypits and unless you like wasting money dont bother. Easier to call thier head office and make a donation. Thieves.

Reply

Unbelievably rude and arrogant even after they're admitted their mistake….. I have honestly never in my life come across such bad customer service….Slow slow slow to respond and don't seem to have a clue.Unfortunately there isn't an option to give a zero star rating on this site. Absolutely dreadful….. Avoid at all costs.

Didn’t have any major problem with them except that they’ve suspended bulgarian clients but that’s a mix from their decision and my country law.

Endless promotions and win I happen to win something worth pence it never seems to work. That 1 free spin superman is not working on iPhone app or safari same as similar previous competition last week. They give very little away and when they do it’s not working.

I’ve been on Betfair for a couple of years and have won and lost which is fine. But recently I have noticed that when I have or should have a cash out normally towards the end of game it either goes blank or disappears. It has cost me a couple of hundred pounds in the last week, I believe this is deliberate and there is nothing you can do about it. I’m going back to the online bookies where the odds are no different and at least I’ve never had a problem cashing out.

Betfair is fun to play if you are bored and don't mind losing the money you put up. The slots suck. specifically double diamond. If you are new to BetFair, the preprogrammed, monitored, and controlled system of games will make sure you win $600 to $800 within your first week of playing. But don't look forward to anything much after that. I have been playing off and on for the past 3-4 years. And the gains are so little, and they get so much money from consumers to payout SO LITTLE, so NOT often. You might think, "Well, I only played $40 and lost it, not so bad." But imagine, there are a million other people that paid $40 or more in the same day, and won nothing, and BETFAIR continues to get richer. Also DO NOT play double diamond or Triple diamond (my favorite games to lose at, when I'm feeling bored) if you want to win big. Because there are NO BIG WINS even though they call it that when you win $162 after playing $100. YOU WILL NEVER SEE 3 double or triple diamonds. TRUST me. Also, what the heck is that damn red 7 for? It pops up every now and then, makes this loud MISLEADING sound, like something big is about to happen, and then, poof, it's followed by unmatched symbols. Like really, what is that red 7 for in double diamond? Anyway, I still play, because I'm willing to lose the couple of dollars that I put it in, but honestly after so many years, and deposits, you would think, that I would have at least one MAJOR win to write about, as BETFAIR collects millions of dollars on a daily basis from people. Nope. SMH.

Wow. I have played literally thousands of spins on the arcade game 'Bonanza' without a bonus. The advertised RTP% really is an absolute scam. Apparently this (the RTP%) is a number based on 'millions of spins across the board'. It pretty much means that you aren't receiving the specified and advertised percentage. How can the ASA and UKGC allow such misleading and false advertising? I realise that some players need to lose to allow others to win, whilst keeping the profit margin, but I feel totally cheated and the customer service is beyond a joke. It's like they've employed a set of robots. Do not waste your time with Bet'fair'. They are a disgrace.

Shameful… on a number of occasions I have placed football bets and it transpires that the quoted score was wrong, my bet was therefore a waste of money. Betfair comment that at the bottom of the website they have a disclaimer saying you cannot rely on the accuracy or timelines of the data! what a shocker… so they will happily create odds (often attractive) based on live feeds, take your money and then abdicate any responsibility !! that's like a retailer selling you a blue jumper and a red ones turns up and they tell you tough, you cant rely on what it looks like on the website. NO REFUND. Very poor…. why isn't there better regulation!!
