BetUK Review

Logged on for first time in 5 weeks and found they had taken my betboosts off me. So punished me for not betting with them. Live chat couldn’t tell me why it has happened and just copy and paste responses like robotsSent 3 emails and not one reply. An absolute shambles

Cash out take little bit longer than other bet site but got my cash out in around 3 hours into my bank great site so far

Very disappointed. Opened a new account and carefully placed a £10 bet following the terms and conditions for the free bet sign up offer. My bet settles and then I ask where my free bets are – they reply to say they’ve decided to refuse me them ‘as per their right in their terms and conditions’.Really shocked and upset – don’t go with this company. They treat paying customers like cr@p.

I have been using these scammers for a while but not anymore. Today I deposited £300 to place a bet and was blocked from doing so. The site said it needed personal financial information from me which included accessing all my bank detail thru my banking app which I refused to do. I tried to withdraw my £300 but was blocked and via the online help was told I was being ‘processed’! I asked for an immediate withdrawal and they have refused. I will be writing back to them and copying the CEO – gustaf hagman to see if that makes a difference. I will also be contacting my bank about these fraudsters.

I put a £40 bet on 8th January 2024 for our next MP to be Nigel Farage. Checked today and couldn’t understand what happened. They took my bet at 100/1 but today when checked they had only taken £1.27 and left the £38.73 still Ok my account. Done on line chat and they stated in chat that the platform used only would accept £1.27 bet . Didn’t inform me in January about anything concerning unable to accept the whole £40.00 bet. All I remember it took 24 hours to confirm. Ist time have betted online and never again. Still bewildered. Feel totally cheated and confused. Stay clear. Shocking company.

DONT USE THIS BOOKMAKERS UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY TO BE WITHOUT!Have being a member of this site for over 12 months, they were a decent company! I deposited £240 over a week ago, account was restricted straightaway asking to verify documents, the information being asked got to say the only bookmaker I’ve used that have asked for very private information, anyone would think you was asking for a loan! 8 days later after providing all info asked for, still can’t withdraw my deposit I made! Speak to online staff, haven’t got a clue so don’t waste your time believe me, raised it as a complaint…. Don’t waste your time, it falls on death ears and they fob you off with jargon that account still being verified and can’t give a timeframe when it will be complete (after using it for 12 months and already being verified last August 23)! I bet if I didn’t have any money in the account the verification would of been done in 24 hours so they could make some money, funny enough seem to only do it when you put money in!Not sure how there in business but so many gambling commission rules they have breached! There own t&c’s mean nothing and now a day away from submitting court papers to them to give me my money back, this isn’t money I’ve won either, it’s my own money, generally don’t know who they think they are but the sooner the new UK laws come in for gambling companies the better as I bet BetUK will go in to admin and fold based on the amount of claims they will have!All the other reviews people have wrote about how corrupt they, are true! Don’t join them or do business with them! It’s all a scam!Don’t listen to there response to this review, it’s all copy and paste from other reviews!Yes I am annoyed BetUK before you state the obvious! Sort yourselves out!

Do not use this site I got an offer of bet £10 on a bet builder and get a free £10 bet I did not receive my free bet and when I got in touch with customer services they acknowledged my qualifying bet was suitable but insisted I would not get my free bet causing me to close my account DO NOT USE THIS SITE !

Easy to withdraw

Give it a rest with the nagging screensSet a deposit limit. Set a wagering limitThen you do it and a few weeks later they’re nagging you to lower it even moreAs if that’s not bad enough there’s constant pop ups telling you about safer gambling every half hour.They can’t differentiate between being logged in and actually gambling Pathetic,I don’t need saving. Ridiculously over the top

Been with Betuk for almost a year, then asked for verification and to send paypal and bank details through there link…that’s fine, so i did and account was still locked, spoke to live chat and was told to send again, repeated this process several times through live chat and the verification link, each time being told need to resend…then was told on live chat all was ok, but need to send paypal proof again, so i did, then got an email saying all has gone through only for my account to be still closed…so back on live chat for the 7th time, only to be told i need to send all proof again, when i told them i had previously been told all was ok, i was then told can this person needed to see my proof….at this point i refused and came off the app…very disappointed with the service, clearly a problem there end or they are not trustworthy, apart from that, was enjoying the site…

They limit my bets for no reason other than for them not wanting to lose more money. I make a profit, but not as much as I should. Bookmakers set odds, and should take the risk. Do they limit punters that lose money to them?

Reply

Always quoting terms and conditions as to why you can’t win this bet,why that bet is void, can’t qualify for this promotion. Boring 🙄

Horse odds are on a timer and they’re automated to be taken down at the exact time of the race regardless if they’re running late or not. Obviously way too much effort to pay a person to press a button when they’re off. I’ve told them but they don’t care about customer feedback When they start taking odds down before the race it’s shambolic. Log on 5 minutes before race and there’s no odds. They’ve been taken down. Race video shows nowhere near being off in fact it was late by 7 minutes in the end.Needless to say it wonCustomer service team don’t have a clue and just fob you off with none answers then have the actual cheek to ask if they can help with anything elseWon’t use again

Reply

Customer service team is full of people who don’t gamble and don’t know what you’re talking about. All you get are copy and paste responses sent. It’s like banging your head against a brick wallEven if you email them that takes days to get a reply and then no help. Absolutely shambolic

more like BETCON UKI have just signed up with this firm and each bet that i place has to go through and be passed lol probably by their so called traders so when its near to the race being off im not sure wether my bet is accepted or not i do find this behaviour very devious from a betting site and i then build up trust issues against them now on top of that they tell me a 10p ew stake is to high on a multiple bet today i therefore placed my bets on bet fair instead of bet uk don’t think these fools ever realise that you continually just drive us all to the big firms like bet fair as your just more trouble than your worth and as for my £30 free bets that also just looks a big conThis is an update as betCON UK replied to this review quickly you ask me why you didn’t come up to my expectations lol is it an underage person working on your site that doesn’t understand what i have written? or are you just in total denial of what you do or don’t do ? The £30 free bet is a total CONand you know that where’s mine ?

Easy site to use lots of freebies cash back into my bank very quickly customer service very quick couldnt ask for anything better Keep up the good work

Reply

They give you the free bets and then restrict the maximum stake you can use meaning you only get to use a very small amount of the free bet and forfeit the rest of it. Which is unlawful by the way but if you complain you just get told it’s their conditions. They say in a reply further down this page that they operate under strict conditions but one of the conditions of the gambling commission is that free bets that qualified before a player is notified of stake restriction should be honoured in full. So not adhering to those rules. Live chat don’t care

Reply

Customer service is terribleLive chat just bombard you with copy – paste terms and conditions Email takes days to reply and then they simply quote your issue without dealing with it. It’s a shambles Please ignore Betuk caring replies on here because it’s all for show. A waste of time

Reply

They refuse to let you withdraw funds and just lie and make things up all the time as to why you can’t have your money always moving the goal posts so you cannot withdraw

Reply

Do not bet with them. They rob customer’s take their deposits and then close their accounts. You then complain and they ignore your complaints and also don’t give you the details needed to escalate your complaint further.

Reply

If you show any knowledge then you’ll get restricted and have your promotions taken away. Greedy horrible firmIf you email them they’ll be no use at all. The people who you deal with on email have no authority to help you. Pay no need to the bs responses they give you on here. It’s all for show. They have no clue how rotten they are. Customer service don’t help you. They aren’t educated in gambling

Reply

Stay away. I signed up and they didn’t give me the sign up offer and said they couldn’t comment why I didn’t get it and they don’t need to give a reason why they didn’t give it to me even though I qualified for it

Reply

A typical UK site that is operating for the odd £1 bettor, if you attempt to bet anything more than pocket money they’ll either restrict you straight away or ask you to provide proof that you are of sound mind and have gained authoritisation from your conscience to make those bets. If you fail to convince their bet police that you are all that they’ll tell you that you don’t know what you’re doing and they’ll bar you from the site.I don’t think it’s their fault, unfortunately the Gambling Comission is all over these companies now and the industry is not going to survive for the long run. Such a shame.

Beware Betuk. Tried to cancel account and withdraw MY money. Suddenly they want passport or driving licence which I don’t have, they didn’t ask for these when I deposited. Beware!

Reply

Website doesn’t always work properly on iPhone but they do have some decent offers until you actually win a few bets and you get restricted. Same old with bookies. Don’t want anyone doing well and only losing money. I earned some free bets by doing offers and then I was restricted on the amount I could use for the awards even though I’d already lost my own money obtaining said offers.

NO !!! NO !!! NO !!! DON T TRY THIS SITE !!! JUST STAY AWAY AND AVOID IT !!! An absolutely terrible experience with this company and this site. My account has been blocked for a month (immediately after I deposited money) for reasons of verification (verifications that were carried out before). When I contact them on chat, they have the insensitivity to lie to you day after day without shame, telling you to calmly wait for their answer because they appreciate that. They don’t have a timeframe to resolve these situations, so you can easily wait for 2 years without any answer, and after 2 years they will tell you the same thing. For your peace of mind, AVOID THIS SITE AND THIS COMPANY! I am sure that they will also respond to this post with the famous lie that they are sorry for the unpleasant experience and that they are a fair site and do everything legally. JUST A LIE! THEY ARE ONLY THIEVES AND LIARS!

Reply

They tell you they’re sorry and to contact them but they know you’ve already contacted customer service and they just do it for showThey haven’t got the authority to do anything. All the decisions are out of their hands. All customer service team do is send you copy and paste replies The odds leave a lot to be desired on soccer. Deliberately going above 1/5 on most matches so they can’t be put into the acca boost. Teams which other bookies go 1/5 or lower on. Betuk are very sneakyDon’t bother telling me to contact you. I’ve done it and you can’t help

This company are terrible, you cannot speak to anyone over the phone, just on a live chat which is useless or email and you never get a response the same day. They asked me for documents last month as is required by all betting companies, however i sent them proof of address, and other documents, but they asked for a photo of my bank card both sides without covering any digits!! I did this but insisted on covering the middle numbers. then yesterday i deposited £250 to use and found my account blocked, they asked for proof of my address again!!!! They also wanted photos of my driving licence, i gave them but cannot understand why they did not do this last month with everything else? Another day later and I have been asking for my money back in my bank, they are refusing to do this until all checks are completed. I need this money and they are holding it without my permission. BEWARE OF THEMSo they have replied on here a hell of a lot faster than the emails and i never said i was scammed? I just want my funds that they are still holding without my permission and if closing the account this should be done fast. why they are saying to go to live chat is a joke, no point, useless. they need a phone line so we can speak to someone

There were no odds for the 3.17 at towcester greyhound race. Even worse as soon as the clock ticked to start time the market was taken down even though they were running late. I’ve told them about taking markets down before they’re off but the customer service team don’t have a clue and the traders don’t careI’ll go bet elsewhere. Ps don’t insult me with your copy and paste response PPS unbelievably you insult my intelligence by obviously not reading my complaint. I’ve never encountered such clueless staff. Maybe stop taking odds down early?

Reply

You get odds from oddschecker and they’re in the betting slip on betuk home page. However when you log in the odds change. Of course none of them ever change in the punters favour and even worse many of them go over the 1.20 threshold so you can’t use the profit boosts . Example a team 1.20 changes to 1.13 as soon as you log on. Please don’t insult me with a copy and paste reply saying you’re sorry or asking me what the issue is. When I emailed you about it you didn’t understand what I was talking about. The customer service team need educating. It seems if they can’t copy and paste they don’t know what to doEdit, you would love to know why? Are you simple or is it just an AI response.. I’ve told you what the problem is

By far the worst betting app ever used , ridiculous customer service and tricky verification process, tip. Don’t use a virtual card , wow ….what a shaddy company 🤢

****THEY ARE THEIVES STEALING MY MONEY***Absolutely shocking service from this company. No flexibility. I lost my bank card and they are refusing to release MY money in my account. I have sent extra verification and they have asked for a document from my bank…. cannot get this from the bank. I have been told there is no other way to get my money…no one I can speak to…no management nothing..I cannot remember the last time I was so annoyed at a company.Do not put your cut and paste reply with a generic email.

Reply

Don’t bother taking any notice of the replies by customer service talking about they’re sorry and they wish to know more to help youThey have absolutely no power to resolve anything or change restrictions. It’s all for show . They are clueless and all they do is copy and paste if you chat with support Your embarrassing reply just proves you don’t even read what the issue was. Copy and paste drivel

Had no issue with the site for a long time, quick withdrawls and good experience. However, it has been overshadowed by the poor “review procedure” they have and the length of time it has taken to complete it. 2 weeks ago today, I deposited money, and then straight away was restricted from the site for a review, i should have never been able to deposit if that was the case and then they would not let me withdraw it. Every day for the past 14 days, I have asked for an update and I have had the same answer, “the relevant team (who only work until 4pm – no evening staff) are reviewing it and will be in touch when complete.” I understand there is procedures but no customer should be waiting this long. Have been patient but enough is enough, they are keeping a balance from me I would like to withdraw.

Apart from winning, it was a reasonably slick site. The only downside was I found it fairly convoluted to get to find my open bets

Typical scamming bet site avoid

Really good site with great customer services. I hadn’t correctly activated my feee bets and the staff helped really quickly to release them. Good site

All those who gave a 5-star rating to this company are fake accounts created specifically to improve the score. Don’t be fooled! This company is a scam. They don’t pay, they don’t offer the promised bonuses and they keep your money blocked for weeks! Do not join this company in any way!

Can you quit with the constant pop ups telling me I’ve been logged in for a hour babbling about safetyThere’s a big difference between being logged in and actually betting. Can’t your system tell the difference?

joined today deposited 10 pound lost it and no welcome bonus ,it states awarded instantly it wasnt ,spoke to support they were unable to help as they did not know what the welcome offer was ,jokers AVOID ANOTHER LOAD OF SCAMMERS

It needs some improvement. Annoying part is constantly having to sign in if you leave the app just for a minute?Slow payout?Having to close the page to get to another page?

Reply

OMG !!!!!! Avoid this website disaster! A bluff!I deposited 350 pounds and immediately in the next second they blocked my account, on the reason that checks are being made. Ok, I’m waiting for the checks that were done when the account was opened. After a day I start contacting the live chat to see what is happening. No one on the chat knows anything and I get the same answer: THE TEAM NEEDS SOME TIME TO PERFORM THESE CHECKS. When you ask how long it takes, you never get an answer. Every day I contact the chat and email and receive the same banal answers! Even up to this moment, my account has not been unlocked and I have not received the money back! This has been happening for more than two weeks. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE! It’s a scam site!

Quite simply a very user-friendly site use. Easy to deposit money and no hassle withdrawing money. Putting bets is also easy and straight foward.

Reply

When you’re losing they are fineHowever if you win a good bet they’ll instantly demand all sorts of information from you and cancel your withdrawal Isn’t it strange out when you deposit they don’t care, only when you win and want to withdraw

This site doesn’t even offer match result and both teams to score football bet options are pretty limited. I also had an issue at the weekend where after playing lightning roulette for half an hour where i didn’t get a multiplier, it rejected my last £8.40 bet when one of numbers then got a x250 multiplier. Probably something to do with me opting in to the jackpot where they take 9p off you for each bet but that shouldn’t have stopped (superseded) my bet going ahead (nothing in T&C that a bet won’t be placed in this circumstance, will take to GC if need be). They should ensure the 9p is restricted to be put on. No one available on live chat for hours. Eventually raised but 3-4 days later still no reponse

I have never seen a bad company like this who take over three weeks to action a simle request , i dont have millions or even thousands in my account. When i asked for my own money to be transferred back they said they are investigating my account , All this time when i giving them money they never complained. Whenever i ask for an update only get thank you for being patient. My account balance is not massive. it is matter of couple of hundred pounds. its getting ridiculous. I might add yet to receive my credit (balance) back in to my bank. Dear bet UK team ,I have uploaded my 3 months bank statements 3 weeks ago ,still every time I go on live chat they say thank you for being patient.it is matter if £400 that I want transferred back into my account

Great fun easy to use and very fast withdrawals.
