I am a novice at this but I put a £5.00 bet each way = £10.00, on grand national on Saturday 15th April The lady was very helpful with explaining and I went away quite happy...After the race my horse came 1st Corach Rambler...9-1, 2nd Vanillier...16-1 and 4th Noble Yates ...11-1 Yet when I went to collect I was only given £20.20 which I thought was not very much.. Can you determine if this is correct as I also thought you got your stake back too. ..can you tell me if this was correct,

Very good app with good games. I've had a big win but I've noticed that after a big win, I don't really get profit for a while. Which makes me feel the sites rigged even though its probably a coincidence.But I do love the games. Best ones are blue wizard fire blaze and big bass splash. They pay ?

Shame there’s not a zero star rating for this one! Just a word of warning for any non seasoned gamblers who try to sign up for one of the “welcome promotions”… don’t!It’s not worth the hassle. And don’t dare deposit your own money via PayPal as apparently that makes you ineligible for their scam sign up deal, regardless of the fact it’s a valid option on their app and site with no warning not to use it with a code! Live chat was a waste of time, incorrectly advised I’d get my bets, then told I was eligible for a different promo but that I actually wasn’t! Chat and the app went down several times, agents were blatantly dismissive. The whole experience from start to finish has been nothing short of enraging and a complete waste of time

The app was very slow at Cheltenham and Aintree , I lost £5 when I put a bet on and it would not work so I put a fiver on my sky app but the bet was on and so I lost a tenor instead of five .Do like the app thou and will persist

I put a bet on of £4 on a race at Aintree. I went to the race to watch it live and got "there is no live stream viewing available, you must place a bet of £1 " (or similar words to that !) I was logged in and just a minute before, I had placed a bet of £4 !! I have already reported all this and all I got was an insulting reply from Toni W. (probably a machine ?!!!! ) saying,"You must bet at least £1 and make sure you are signed in" !!!! PLEASE , do NOT insult my intelligence and try reading my message properly ! The same thing happened again later in the afternoon. It obviously didn't cost me any money but as a new Betfred customer, I wasn't happy being denied the pleasure of watching my horse run and even more annoying was the standard of customer reply.

Poor offers on Sports so thought I would try an offer on their slots. Staked the correct amount and then the page 'timed out' as I selected my free spins.Thought it would be no trouble sorting with the live support. They made up a story about how I had staked money on their casino a month ago (completely false) and then basically said 'we're not going to resolve this so let's close the chat'. I suggested due to my poor experience I wanted to close my account. Then I tried to withdraw my funds and it failed, turns out they closed my account immediately after the chat without any more dialogue! Yet to receive the funds back in my account.Absolute rubbish.I'd go to Coral, Paddy Power or LiveScore, much more helpful if there's any issues.

Absolutely scamming people. Deposit a lot before and taken my money without any issues but when I withdrawal my winning 280£ they immediately closed my account and asked for verification which I did replied back with all what they asking for and yet after 4 days still not paying out my money and nothing heard back from these scammers. Contacted the bank and been advised that I should report to the action fraud which I will be doing next for sure. So stay away from these scams.

think it's appalling that you penalise antepost betters betting on the Grand National in advance - I put my bets on days in advance and wasn't able to view them on the day, because you limited it to bets placed in the last 48 hours. This penalises people that aren't your casual betters - we bet early because we're regulars. Pay attention to your core customers - you should be looking after us! I also talked my mum and dad through setting up an account, the day before the national, so they would each have a welcome offer to use. They are both in their 80's and haven't done online betting before. My mum didn't receive her WELCOME40 bonus, which was also disappointing and unfair!

Easy to set up and placing a bet is also easy, it's anything else that's a problem - try finding your bets, or who you've backed, it's not user friendly and, to top it all I managed to forget my username (email address is too long). I got blocked because I couldn't sign in, when I tried to reset it I couldn't and, when I tried to access online help I was told it was shut because the grand national was on... I only opened it so I could bet on the grand national. When or if I can get in , I will take my money and, go on to a different betting site. This site is hard to get around and, even harder to find out simple facts like if you've won or list etc. The only bits that are easy are when it comes to giving your money or setting an account up! STAY AWAY!!!!

EDIT: Customer service was wrong / saved face. Fast reply so upgrading to average. If I didn't fight it it would be over for the customerSigned up to a great offer. Apparently I'm "ineligible" even though I got an email saying the bonus is in my account. Nonsense. Got sent a promotion link by the person with what I signed up for and it differs. They claim I already took a promotion under my IP but nothing in my email, no one else gambles under this IP and my first sign up. I think they are trying to cause issues before the grand national race as I signed up the day before which is ELIGABLE!

App is awful. Once you place the bet, you can't see it again because it says they're too busy settling bets. However if they fixed this, I like the way they set out the stats for the horse racing.

I have been a betfred customer for 20+ years but my three friends and I will NEVER set foot in any of their shops again the shop staff in Barnsley are great but the customer care staff are absolutely awful especially Emma if they ever bring the weakest link back she would give Ann Robinson a run for her money. My friends and I had a £400 bet on the price boost the bet was taken by the shop staff I was not told that the maximum bet was £100 even the ignorant Emma didn't this. Personally I think they should change the name to customer don't care.

Very good app , but the deals offered by bet 365 are far better. When your team gos 2 up its a win on football and best price guaranteed on horse racing. Also there price boost are better. Keep trying and watch what theg do.

So many bad reviews about Betfred, and here comes another one! Closed my account couldn't tell me why or the reason for this, just that the safe gambling team have decided to close my account, for what reason? Had no email even though they have said I would get an email? Been 2 weeks no email, when I try asking live chat to why my account has closed they can't give a reason and close the chat. They've lost a good customer and looks like they'll continue to lose customers as they keep expecting customers to deposit and play and than block there accounts after. I hope something is Done about Betfred, bet365 and betfair as all these company's are the same and they all need to be closed, the gambling commission aren't doing there job as there letting these bettong company's Rob customers.

This is a poor company. Customer care doesn't respond. I withdrew $3000 from my investment wallet at Planoff..Investment..Company and deposited it here so that I could play some games but the money did not reflect in my account.I have reached customer care in the last 24 hours but nobody is giving a suitable reason why my money is yet to be reflected.

Rude, dismissive customer service who weren’t willing to help when I misunderstood a very poorly worded & defined welcome offer.At almost every casino I’ve used customer support have been all too happy to help and override promos not working or If there is a misunderstanding, finding a solution BetFred have extremely condescending staff, who are rude, dismissive and not even willing to helpSurely the point of a welcome offer is to provide a great first impression. Very poor and not recommended

I don’t want if the bonus finish you need start again always and log in back on. Is hard to put it back on the original playing that you have. Always not continue in your game.

Awful company and staff and managers don’t care about you and they never give you any free bets even if you have staked thousands of pounds all they do is end your chat their end. AVOID AT ALL COSTS go to net 365 every week they give you free bets and lots of them if you are a good customer win or lose

Spoke to a customer service representative (Nathan H) who was extremely rude, and had no idea what he was talking about, he told that if I want to win I need to stake more money and deposit much more frequently. These betting companies are becoming outrageous and outright insane, when will these companies be looked into?

I joined bet Fred today & put on a few low value bets £1. £2 & on two of my bets I cashed out 1 for £18 something & the other for £96 something & it said cash out pending but it didn’t pay me anything. So I called the com up & spoke with a advisor & in a casual remark I said I could do with the money as I’m skint & stated my case & emailed the company & I’ve proof of the cash out pending as I took a photo as it was taken so let no to pay me. 2 hours later the company called me & said they was from the safer gambling group & cos I said I was skint they was blocking my account . ( witch is now blocked) & im still waiting to here back from bet Fred support about my cash out payments it seems this is just a way to not pay me anything that I’m legally entitled to. What a way to treat a new customer rob them & then block them terribly I will be going down a legal route if I don’t get what I legally won

Slot games are full of dead spins, and if you are lucky yo get a connection on a spin its minimum payout. Over 4000 spins at 20p and 1 bonus, which gave me 8 dead spins and a total win of 32p. Gates of Olympus drops a scatter on nearly every spin so if you do get a connection it cant multiply. Zeus is just there to fill the space as he never seems to move. Betfred will blame the number generator ( yes ive heard it all before). Lets get these sites from Gibraltar shut down by not depositing on them.I have put a complaint in to Gambling Commission.

Bloody awful site cash outs are terrible and it’s saying watch live and when I placed a 70 pounds bet couldn’t watch it called in and said oh it’s because your balance is zero you have to have. Apenny in your account never heard such rubbish opened a complaint and have to wait 3 days for a manager call back that shows how many people are having complaints AVOID AT ALL COSTS go to bet 365 far better and none of this crap like Betfred

Giving good odds before bets & good odds when matches in play, offer good deals prior to events & pay out quickly when fortunate enough to have a win, keep up the good work ?
