SkyBet Review

Won about £500 over the last nine months. Now I receive an email banning me from receiving any further free bets or cashback offers. So it's my fault that I have taken advantage of offers they have pushed my way? Sorry for not doing what I'm there for i.e. losing!

Avoid. Prize machine a real joke, win 20 grand, please someone tell me if they have won ?? Else useless 10p bonuses gonna delete and use a high street bookmaker if I want to have a bet.

Everyone saying they’re rigged , this site is great, you win some you lose some. Nobody knows how to gamble that’s it. These sites get all this hate, but how else are they suppose to profit from a business, you’re not always going to win.

Removed offers but refuse to explain why. Happy when people lose but not when people win.

Extremely useless customer service, once you closed your account can't get back

Well well well, I'm such an idiot.
Why don't I ever seek out these review sites before I join up.

I've been playing since lockdown last year, didn't everyone in the country do the same thing?

Drinking up
Smoking up
Depression up
Gambling up.

I'm part of the gambling up brigade.
Here's how I'm doing in September 2021.

Since 13th November 2020 your account is £1444.92 down.

☝️That's a wake up call – when do I get a percentage of it back?
I have made some withdrawals but lately it's been one way traffic.

Just think what I could've done with £1444?
Could've purchased that new bed I need, could've purchased a new microwave or a new sofa.
I'm so angry with myself 😠😠

In the words of the Twitch streamer Trainwrecktv " Where's the juice" Sky?

It can't go on like this, if it doesn't change shortly then I'm out.

Thanks for all the other reviews pointing out sky bets awful dry slot machines they have been so helpful.

To anyone reading this review – all the negative reviews can't be wrong .

Hi all,

Please, please do not put any of your money there way.
As an avid and controlled gambler and most certainly not under any illusions that every time's a win time.
I have been part of Sky Bet for two years and admittedly it has never really been my personal favorite site to use. However, the returns are shocking even over multiple games to the point the win cycles feel very very very scripted.. the only way that I can describe it and to be fair it's my own fault continuing to waste money with them for so long. Really this is a genuine call to consider joining with them; better player return and fun plays are to be had elsewhere..

I have only recently joined sky bet a week ago. To be honest I liked the layout of the app and it seemed fine until I had a bet that looked like winning. I had a 10 euro stake for a few football matches and it all went onto the golf last weekend. The payout was 2k plus. All selections were in awaiting the golf.. From the final day of golf, I never had a cash out. However it was available in another bet I had done. So the big potential payouts cash out option was disabled. Not once over the course of the day did I have the option. I would have cashed out on several occasions through the final round of golf but couldn't. At one point my selection was 1/66 in play so my cash out would of been very high. Nonetheless my bet somehow lost but I was frustrated beyond belief as I would have got some return had I the option. To limit someone's cash out based on the winning potential is unfair and unjust .don't offer the facility if you are only going to use it to your own benefit. Disgraceful service..stay well Clear

They blocked deposits and then suspended my account for winning too much. When i tried to resolve it, they asked me very personal questions over the phone and didn't unblock my account.

Dreadful. Account suspended immediately after opening with £250 deposited in it. The account has never been used – not a single bet placed. Emailed several times over two weeks, but still no progress. It feels dodgy and I would certainly advise anyone considering opening an account with them
to think again.

F1 Grand Prix , how can they settle bets when 2 laps completed behind safety car and no overtaking allowed, this is out of order surely???? No more will be spent on this site

Twice in a week i have had two very big acca's lose because i couldn't cash out. A game in each acca had finished correctly for me, suddenly those resulted games grey out preventing me from cashing out. Oh but lo and behold the cash out becomes active when you're about to lose. Not a con though and not in any way deliberate.

Absolutely disgusting, cash out really is the thing that should be looked into as these companies are cheating us out of money with this.

I've been with Sky Bet for years and you put up with it, but the last two just tipped me over the edge. They lost a loyal customer, hope they crash and burn, disgusting company.

Reply

Complete negligence across the company. Failure to act upon a serious complaint instead passing the blame solely to the customer before closing the account in question and not responding to follow up calls/emails made from myself causing further discontent. Unlawful

So on Saturday 21st August 2021 I had a few bets running with sky bet, one of them was going to lose so I tried to cash out at £5 which was to get my stake back for another bet, cash out didn't work, I tried numerous times but it just wouldn't work, I messaged them on Facebook and they admitted the cash out feature wasn't working but the final result would stand so they've basically admitted that because one of the features of betting with them wasn't working but they're keeping my money, yes it's only 5 pound, I can live with that but it's the principle, how can their advertised feature not work which they admitted but they still took my money. I deleted the app and I'll never deal with any part of sky ever again. I tried to leave a review numerous times on the Google Play store but they keep getting removed, sky bet obviously doesn't want to let people know their app doesn't work. They are frauds and thief's. Disgusting behaviour from a one of the biggest betting companies around. Hopefully this review doesn't get removed.

I thought I'd sign up a Skybet account as never had one but was stating i already had an account with them. After contacting them it would appear someone fraudulently used my details for an account. Skybet confirmed the account was fraudulently signed up
and banned it, but then they told me as a precaution they're also banning me from ever signing up an account with them and told me it was my fault for letting someone steal my details. Absolutely disgusting customer service, demanded to speak to a manager an they refused.

Awful, been waiting 45 mins for an online chat, still no reply

Reply

Just complained to sky bet regarding their app stating my accumulater had gone down when the second half of Brighton and Watford only started. My bet was still live but it said I had lost. Joel at their web chat told me that it was a glitch in their system. The game was still live and my bet was dead, Joel ended the conversation stating that Skybet cannot do anything without allowing me to respond. I had waited 28 minutes to start the chat this was 5 minutes into the second half and the chat was answered at 7:07 and once the game had ended Joel ended the chat. Very poor service and a bit weird that he waited until the game ended before saying bye and cut me off. I will be terminating my account with them immediately.

As per usual loads of bets were in or looking really good for coming in and should have been offering great cashouts and low and behold the site starts glitching loads of games going dark and not allowing it shambles of a company I will be self excluding myself from your website for life after this review

Best slots and nice wins. Withdrawal is always next day. But my last withdrawal £3500 still not received it? Hopefully will credit my bank by Friday. 😉👌👍 Luckybrad89

Terrible company.
If you have a few wins they will restrict your bets to pennies.
Should not be allowed a bookmakers licence.

Reply

Cash out of your bet don’t place any of these as when your winning and have multiple bets on the go you will not be able to tried 3 times, then couldn’t find the bet by the time I found it was suspended and lost.

Piece of shi….
Never play hire
They never let you win.

This company allow you to deposit £5 but will not let u withdraw the same amount. They seem to think if u have less than £10 that its they're money. Absolutely shocking that u cannot withdraw ur own money. Straight up theft.

Probably the vorse bookie in the world
After my wifes many loses, finally get a few bets up, and then, they just put account on restrictions, even more, dont want to accept wiining bets, they already 2 monts shows like a won, but still not settled, and after many calls they say, the bets is under investigation…B U L L S H I T
They like onliy when people lose a money

Another UK operating gambling company, registered offshore that doesn't like to pay out when you are winning. Placed a few bets in the last 2 weeks, mainly winners and they restricted my account due to "tighter liability management" to avoid any further loss for them.

Don’t use sky bet if you like a cash out! Complete scammers

Reply

They really have got worse lately. Dodgy cash out trends, random timescales for withdrawals, suspect periods of downtime, weird times can't even log in, there are far better platforms out there too.

Skybet is the best
Skybet is the best betting site, they offer good odds and they pay out very fast,I won allt within the past last week with the help of PLATINUMTIPS__ on Instagram, I would recommend you message him if you wanna win, his the best though, please make sure you switch to Skybet today, they are the best

This company is a joke,they have all sorts of tricks like fading out in time play , putting red card where it will confuse you, showing a team attacking in order for you to cash out quickly and lots more.

Reply

I had a dispute with them over a price because they no longer give you best price when they offer their special place prices. Turns out their rules cover them but would not bet with them again, plenty of bookies pay out on places and also offer best prices.

Reply

I've had my account restricted because I won on their live roulette tables..
Seems unless you're willing to just throw your cash at them and loose all the time then they don't want you there..
Terrible company..

Absolute disgusting company who will bleed you dry and dont care the about the effect it will have on you and your family. Stay away from these thieves or they will ruin you. I am taking them all the way in a dispute and wont stop until i get a black mark on their operators licence !!! Scum of the earth !!!

I was offered a Cash Out on an ACCA on Saturday which I chose and confirmed. Next day I checked my account. I contacted them only to me told that they had a system issue so tough. Apparently they can have a system issue that is not visible and despite me confirming that I wanted that doesn't matter, Sky keep my cash. Shocking

Avoid, make ridiculous decisions on a number of issues. The straw that broke the camels back was getting my account suspended for a single digit typo on a chat trying to get my fantasy football league password changed. Having spent £25 gambling at the weekend I’ve then been told that I need to provide 2 forms of ID to get my account open and fantasy football league open. Shambles just wanted to play fantasy football with friends

Slots ratio win is terrible! Their free spin daily is awful!

Should at least credit its customers with some free bets after robbing its customers out of cash outs. 2 very decent cashouts I had on 7/8/21 and like many others end up with nothing.

Reply

Wouldn’t let me cash out, after repeated attempts ‘are you sure you want to cash out?’ Press yes- nothing.. it’s actually stealing money.

Reply

I put 1000 in a skybet account off my card which was accepted any verification should of been asked before accepting my 1000 not only will they not let me withdraw the 2030 what I turned it into they have my 1000 stake this is a disgrace they advertise all over the television bet responsibly they are responsible to not to accept my 1000 in the first place they want their cake and eat it a total Liberty and disgrace

They are scammers , burn in hell

I was on for 16 hours I was given no advice just on a machine for 16 hours non stop
Never again I thought sky was supposed one of the best

Skybet offer cash out but then when you try to use it, it doesn’t work. They advise that this is an error due to so many games changing in the last 5 minutes. Isn’t that what happens every week?? However, none of my games changed and we haven’t even started with the Premier League yet. Take my advice and use another betting platform.

Trying to help sort an account and live chat and e-mail are the only contact points, why no phone number??

Used customer services Nick dealt with my request he was quick and efficient I would give him five stars but the company I wouldn't give any stars they robbed me of £400 when I wanted to cancel a bet even though my first horse had one they wanted to keep the money at all costs I wouldn't accept the bet should have been a single and not a double so as a company I don't recommend them

Customer service is awful, no help, lazy.

A decent bookie for footy betting ,but if betting on horse racing use other bookies as sky dont do BOG on a lot of races due to extra places.
