Another poor experience. 4th week running spending £30 to get 50 free spins. 50 free spins to win £2.11 hahaha. No wonder they don't have any wagering for new customers when you don't win anything anyway. Not giving them anymore money now.

I bet on a stoppage/knock out on a boxing fight.I bet on the underdog at 6/1 and the favourite was 1/5 on.Sky bet advertised the fight as 12 rounds.There mistake it was 10 rounds.3rd round stoppage they voided my bet and offered me £10 good will gesture.Sky bet call ursellves sky u sure dont pay out on a winning bet.Horrendous company avoid at all costs.You cant even call a helpline the numbers dont exist.Scumbags

Customer for 14 years, increased deposit limit. Broke even for the month, they suspend my account demanding 3 months of bank statements. Blackmailing is a new tactic from skybet. Any issues you guys have should be reported to the gambling commission, these fraudsters need sorting out

Skybet off again with the moneyback as free bet all losers in 1st race each day At Cheltenham, what they don't tell you is there's no best price!! and all the prices are shorter than elsewhere! Last year I backed a winner 4/1 even though It was really 6/1 with every other bookmaker that returned 8/1 but only got 4/1,are they really making betting better?? NO!

Blocked account day 2 after 2 bets won in a row. Refused to pay the wins on 2nd bet and blocked my money including initial deposit. Been trying to talk to costumer service, and they refuse to offer any information. I just want to withdraw my balance. They can keep the account closed...who cares? plenty bookies around. Shameful!!!

Sky at the cheating againg. Bet on Jude Bellingham to have shot on target v Chelsea. He did from inside the box with power and goalie saved it. Sky say it was a cross. This company are pure and simple cheats. Save your money go elswhere. Ps don't let them pass you off with 'they're bound by opta stats'. Pure con

Third week in a row being ripped off by these. Spend £30 unlock 50 free spins and win 40p from them 50 free spins. Absolute joke. Not getting another penny off me.

Never ever use this betting site. They understand what bets you use then take money out of your account that match the pattern of your bets , e.g if you bet £30 on a regular basis they will then take several amounts of £30 from your bank, thinking you won’t notice them. You complain and they cut you off as they know you are right and they can’t answer why they are taking money out of your bank . Scammers

I use to think this app was fair and one of the best around but l was robbed twice in 48hrs. Was repeating a bet and had £6.25 on 11 on roulette and last minute it removes my bet saying bet not confirmed and of course 11 comes in. Then to add insult to injury l was doing exactly the same on another game putting £5 on a special feature (walters spins) and the screen buffers and kicks me out and won’t let me back in and Walter lands paying 1200 and l had £5 on it so 5 x £1200. Rigged, scum of the earth. Stay well away. Customer support are useless. No help whatsoever. They always blame it on network issues but l know and they know full well it has nothing to do with network issues. Scamming at its finest.

This is the worst company of any of online sites. When you lose they won't say a word and a day when you covered little bit of your losses they blocked the account and hold the account blocked without a reason. When you send all the documents they still hold it for weeks. Worst company ever. Beware and run away for sky bet

I agree with what everyone else is saying scumbag company that tries to force you into gambling lots of money and if you don’t and god forbid win even a few pence on one of their free games you immediately get your account reviewed and restricted, for no other reason than they haven’t managed to entice you into becoming a regular gambler. Don’t know how the gambling commission allows such disgraceful behaviour to continue by such an unscrupulous company. Their motto should be if yous have any fun, we will make sure it stops. Clearly set up to push customers into gambling excessive amounts and your account gets restricted if you don’t. Just switched to BT sports from Sky and my mobile phone contracts will be getting cancelled next absolute scumbag company

My account has just been restricted following a ‘review’. I don’t bet an awful lot, probably £5 a week roughly. I have just had some success on a free bet which is the only reason I can think of to restrict my account. Disgraceful, I will not be using sky bet again, I will also be not be renewing sky sports, I will have no further activity with sky.

Sky ScammerHaving opened an account around a week ago, i have being playing with sky bet, losing as you do, i finally had a win, nothing to rave about, just a 10/1 football win, i more than likely have broke even, requested withdrawal as normal, message saying should be 1-2 hour, deposited around 1 hour later to play some more, just after this my account got suspended, i never received my withdrawal, and live chat is non existent, i think sky need to learn a few simple gambling laws, 1 being - a withdrawal cannot result in extra ID checks - Lost my money, have no access to chat with sky bet, so will report to IBAS

The only bookmaker who doesn't guarantee odds on all races ...they claim this is because they offer extra places on each way bets ...bit I don't back each way ...yet they still don't guarantee prices on singles .... disgusting

Absolutely disgusting people. Lots of talk of a fair betting experience but god forbid you actually win any of your bets, they'll immediately punish you by restricting you to betting pennies and ban you from any promotions. Should be done for false advertising. Customer service have a horrible attitude as well. Take your money elsewhere!

Covered every single number apart from number 4 on the roulette. Wonder what the chances are it would land on number 4 with my last bit of money. Chances are very strong when they want you to lose. I've never had enough in my balance to even withdraw from this site. Someone needs to step up and look into their site. If its one or two people saying the same thing you turn a blind eye but when nearly every single review is the same you know it needs looking at. They're ripping off the people who keep them in business. How ironic.

Absolute con I won on the daily free spin £100 withdrew it straight away and the day after they send me an email saying my account is restricted and I can no longer play the daily free promotions So because I rarely deposit and won from a free game I’m banned from them

This site gets worse and worse. Havnt one good thing to say about them. How can it land on the only number you don't pick on your last bet and this is frequently too. Get good skybet then the other reviews on here wouldn't be the same. Need looking in to immediately

I had an email saying I had been banned from receiving sky Vegas promotions. I told the agent I'm sure Brandon was his name and that I don't ever use that platform and it is discrediting my name He refused to let me know why and treated me as disgraceful. Avoid this company. Customer service is shocking

Cashed out on Newcastle v Liverpool game. All went as normal. Ie cash out, confirm etc. Checked my account soon after and zero balance. Initiated the online chat where I spoke with Helen who was very nice but also defended the company with great vigour. I wasn't getting my money back. I've used skybet as my only betting outlet for years. I'm truly disappointed they didn't listen to me. But I have a choice and I'll move on or I may stop. He he. In a nut shell.( skybet is great until you have an issue) so long skybet. You'll miss my weekly 6 team acca. I hear now promise to donate my well earned cash to another betting company. When the fun stops ????

Cheats. They say they have random number generators. These always work in favour of the bookies.Robbing bar stewards.Oh customer service is slow to respond. Also if you have a query try and get a senior person to deal with it. The junior folk are garbage.SKYBET - I’m sure you’ll respond with your standard answer. I’m not disappointed at losing - I’ve made a profit. You are ROBBERS AND CHEATS

Sky bet have twice in 2 days removed "cash out" on me. Spoke to customer service the first time and was told it was a glitch. 2nd time I had a 100-1 & 80-1 acca with 1 result needed. 20 mins left on the game and cash out removed. Spoke to customer services "glitch" again. What are the chances. Offered me a £10 free bet

I was blocked by Sky Bet for no reason and when asked to clarify ID they asked me for driving license or passport. I said my passport and my disabled badge, plus I showed a letter with my address on it as I don’t have a utility bill. My bills are sent via emails and my bank statements I sent via my app which I provided them with that as well which this was not acceptable so they carried on with the block on my account and have not taken it off, I feel like I’ve been victimised for no reason I advise people not to use SkyBet as I do not stick to what they agree on this site. Plus they block you for no reason they know you’re in the right stay away

Won e bet on football of 58K on 23/10/22 and to this date all i got back was £2200 the deposit only. I have sent all the requested documents what they've asked and still skybet didn't honour my bet. The agent by the name of Sunil has been treating me like a dirt and now he won't even reply to the emails. I have made a complaint to the complaint department via email only as they don't give out their number and i wonder why! So hopefully they'll reply shortly or else I will pass my case to the solicitor. Skybet has suspended my account from the day of the big win.

IF YOU BET £5ew..£10 win..£5or £10 on football,play slots and casino,Want 10p ew lucky 63s,20p ew lucky 31s,50p ew lucky 15s or better still a little less then SKYBET is perfect for your needs,SHINNERS comes on tv and says theyve seen money for one!!!! That means some mug punter has had £100 on the nose because if skybet have any big players they must be doing theyr brains in,these lot along with betfred must have a monopoly on all the pensioners in the UK with theyr 5p round robins and 5p lucky 15s because they simply wont take a bet or a risk

Same as others have said, I self excluded from betfair years ago after they robbed me out of a casino win. Fast forward years later and skybet have suspended my account as they are now part of the flutter group. Gambled 1000s since I closed my betfair account so if it’s a safeguarding safer gambling reason then it’s a load of rubbish.

Todays rogue skybet price 'Mykhlayo Mudryk 2 shots on target 'was evens' 'now 2/1'......its a 5/2 chance on Betfair...was never even close to evens.....its like me selling a car for 10k but telling (lying) the punter it has been reduced from 30k. Basically they can set the original price at whatever they want and pretend your getting a bargain...in any other industry this is fraud....utter disgrace....Gambling comission should be ashamed of itself for having zero oversight over it's industry

I was supposed to be self excluded and they allowed a bet. Their excuse was that it was a sister company and it was apparently earlier before they joined with said company that I had the exclusion and they had only just noticed after I won and then lost my money. Disgusting behaviour and economically predatory.

Complete joke. With no limitations and several offers, we opened an account in January and have now incurred a three-figure loss. When September rolled along, we made a three-figure profit. Our highest wager for the entire time frame was a £12 win, with the majority being £3 each-ways. Yes, Sky has recently restricted us in all areas; there are no longer any promos or free fivers for weekly spending over £25; and the maximum bet is now only £2. Yes, one pound both ways. When the fun stops, they cease, or when the sky stops paying your mortgage. Avoid signing up with SkyBet, and if you have, leave. Just one star because you have to!

I’ve been with skybet years now and I receive the absolute rock bottom on offers due to me closing the Vegas side of my account a couple of years ago, all these are interesting in is people loading up on the slots and casino and don’t treat the sports customers with any respect at all, an offer of £2 refund for the biggest betting event of the year (Cheltenham festival) is the final straw my normal stakes range from £5-£20 to why is my refund £2? Cos I don’t play the games of course!! Avoid these at all costs
