i had £530 stolen from my account over night. I brought this to the attention of Sky Bet who basically said someone logged into my device and spent it. I asked for proof of this including log in times IP Address etc and they closed my account and stopped talking to me. Customer service ? what Customer Service you make a complaint and their attitude is go away and then close your account. I'm not the only one they have done this too read all the other reviews. They wont help you they just want your money then treat you like dirt. Absolute disgusting behaviour from a Multi million pound company. Rip you off then then ban you . What's worse is they just do not give a damm. Just look at how many replies they have made to negative feedback on here a grand total of Zero, that says it all in a nutshell.

Do not trust this company absolute joke.Cashed out 2 bets clearly cashed out only to see the cashed out bet back in my bets slip seconds after the other team scored.If you are ever cashing out a bet Make sure you screen record it getting cashed out these cowboy clowns are scandalous. Protect yourself and screen record anything you do on skybet. they just give you the usual we see no bets cashed out do you have a screen shot. Avoiding this site from now on back to trusted ones that dont do the dirty on you.

Unless you bet ew on the extra place races DO NOT bet win or win multiples. No guaranteed odds saving them a fortune while little loss for them in extra place

They still haven't paid out on Messi having 2 shots on target against Mexico even though he did. Won't be placing another bet with them and will be joining William Hill.

Just watching Croatia v Canada and just before Croatia got their 3rd goal I was looking at cash out and it was suspended due to supposed VAR. I realise tv is 10 seconds or so behind so wondered what was happening. There was no VAR as nothing happened and Croatia scored. False in play information. Not good and could be construed as being fraudulent behaviour by Sky imo.

They are scammers. They won’t pay you out for shot on target bets when it’s clearly a shot on target and they will hide behind a 3rd party stat company that is nothing to do with sky bet themselves. Save your money and bet with Williamhill

Absolute joke. Do not use virtual bets its a carve up. As my losing bets go through.but I've had three bets that I've tried to put on thats been rejected (somehow I thought I had connection issues) which after viewing the results actually won! Now I've put money on Messi over 1.5 shots on target against Mexico which apparently opta ruled one was a cross!!! How much are they paying them???

Has been fine for the past year, no problems, then I had a decent month and then SkyBet restricted my account so that I could never win more than £100 on a horse race, refused to explain why other than "we can do what we like, it's within our terms and conditions".

I am trying to close my account and get money due refunded for over a week 1st it was user name, then DOB , then favourite question , then proof of ID (passport had to be scanned) Now the crooks want a proof of address ! I only want my account closed , nothing else, meanwhile they hold onto my money. Requests for them to call me go unanswered, absolute scum and lowest of the low avoid at all costs,

I have been with them for a couple of years, betting regularly & losing money overall, but not much. I have now had my stakes reduced to pennies. I only bet a few £ per bet anyway. I can only assume that as I offer them no long term value, they won't even entertain any of my business. Petty shareholder serving behaviour, but not surprising.

BOG biggest joke out there - many companies will honour the Industry standard BOG not Sky bet - they supposedly enhance extra places that no one benefits from and then point out their T’s & C’s when queried - seems like a standard response no empathy or caring at all

Made a registration with them and funded the account straight away. Within 5 minutes of my deposit going through my account was suspended and I can't withdraw my money. The only option I have is to send them my passport, bank statement, bank card and driving license. No way to withdraw so they basically just stole £50 from me and won't give it back without demanding personal information

Just the worst app. Been with them for ten years. Wouldn't let me bet in a simple bet so tried to withdraw funds and they wouldn't allow me to put my own money back into me account. Absolute crooks. Avoid at all costs. Because it will cost you loads when you want to transfer all your winnings back into your bank account. Complete robbers. They don't like you winning. Reported.

Disgrace of a company. 21 years as a loyal customer, and they self-excluded me against my will because 10 years ago i had self-excluded from Paddy Power and now they are the part of the same family group of companies.I thought the whole point of self-exclusion was that it was something you were supposed to do yourself, not something to be forced upon you without question.I was informed that the group wide exclusions became policy on 8th June, yet it took them until 1st November to actually implement it. They were happy to accept around £3500 of deposits in this period of time. Surely if they genuinely thought gambling was a risk to me and that exclusion was for my own protection then it should have been implemented straight away and not 5 months later.Never had a bad word to say about Skybet prior to this, now wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

My blind disabled nephew had his account blocked for no reason after being a loyal customer for many years.He was robbed and had his bank card stolen so I let him use mine on his account. He recently put his new card back on his account.He called to ask if he could get his account rewards back and the racist customer service staff suspended his account and blocked him from messaging them again. I have asked for a phone number the the bullying racists won't give him 1. He rarely leaves the house since he was attacked and ribbed. His only enjoyment is to have a bet on the football and listen yo it on the radio. Now the racist bully's have taken that away from him.

Skybet traders appear to be on another planet. Won't payout on bets I have where the results have been confirmed. The traders are saying they or it dioesnot finish until December. Buick top jockey this season colin Keane top irish jockey this season and Paul nichols top trainer last season. Saying that one or more don't end until December. They have all ended. Sky are showing alot of incompetence. You should pay out

When using the casino as you start winning they gradually reduce your time to make a bet to give you less time and if you continue to win all of a sudden you loose signal which interrupts your game sometimes not letting you rejoin ,have also had large wins just wipped off and when I challenged them was told it was nothing to do with them ! I know this sounds like a sore loser but for real gamblers it's not about the money but when I can see I'm being ripped off that is when I have to say no more !

I agree with others that hate the no best odds /extra places rule and they just make prices up that are shorter.Prize machine is a fix everytime I win it's just 10p ,the odds of that happening on a RANDOM spin is million to 1.Anybody won bigger prize on free prize machine

Sky bet are bad but they are not alone, all of them are the same. Where do you want to start? Extra places from 1/4 to 1/5? What to do think this mean? Of cause extra money for them. They make the pricing as well as providing you with the information, and you try to win money from them? near on impossible. This is what happens when you leave a massive company governing themselfs without accountability, they are free to do as they wish. There's so much I know for a fact about this industry, but if I start to say everyone gonna thing that I am crazy. Best ways! Only spend what you can afford to lose.

Awful..no one wants extra places we want best odds. When you bet on their specials (eg over goals in prem lge games) they don't pay out till all games complete stopping you reinvesting till all games are over..useless

Terrible experience, I wanted to cash out on a bet builder. I had 6 out of 7 legs up and wanted to cash out. The bet was suspended for over 12 mins until a goal was scored, this ended my bet. I will be closing my account and will never recommend this rip off company.

They did a credit check on me and then refused to tell me why they had done it or how they got my information. The customer service was just like don't worry you can remove it from your credit report, but that's not the point. Either they have bought my information from someone, or someone has set up an account in my name. Either way they refused to help and weren't even bothered about it

Ive been with company quite a while,opted in for SkyBetClub..spend £25 and get £5 free bet..recently changed to £2.50 sportsbet and 25 spins,qualified,got my £2.50 free bet,but no indication of 25 bets.Went on Sky Casino,Google and Youtube..no sign.Eventually it expired after a week.Now,Gas and Electric through the roof,mortgage gone up,same as food and fuel..So Rupert Murdoch decides to increase the price of your chance of a "Free Bet" from spending £25 to £30 a week.Thanks for your loyalty,and trying to win a bit of breathing space for your family..When other companies are trying to help..this is what you get from Skybet
