Customer service from the dark ages. There is something very sinister about how they keep your money and become very elusive when you try and get in touch with them. Avoid at every and all costs.

Believe it or not since this coronavirus has hit I’ve not one a single dime on this dreaded 2 bob site so people do the right thing and keep your money in your pockets they are robbing people

AVOID AT ALL COST. Hit with a account suspension on the 25th of April, send all my documents same day and been chasing up every 2 days to be fobbed off even though it's the 4th of May today. Wouldn't normally be an issue except I have £300+ stuck there. ABSOLUTE ROBBERS. Signed up for BET365 and got verified within 24hours instead. AVOID SKY BET

I really like the platform and can’t find anywhere that is as good but after 3 years of being a loyal customer I have decided not to
Use SkyBet anymore.
I have recently in the las 6 weeks been killing it where I was up by about £1000 once tarting to play with sky. £2900 this year but over three years only £1000 up.
Sky bet have started to remove my cash out facility and put heavy restrictions on me capping my maximum stake. Make ing it impossible
For me to carry on in my current betting strategy!

I bet £130 on 3 hands at 3 positions on blackJack, was delt 5|3, 10|9, and 5|6 the name of the game is try to get 21 or near without going bust so obviously I would of hit on the 5|3, stood on the 10|9, and hit on the 5|6 but bizarrely my screen went blank for nomore then a nano of a second and it wouldn't give me an option to hit or stand and the call went strait back to the dealer who announced 21/blackjack without even looking at the second card before pulling it out of the card holder which I found very strange. Obviously if there was some sort of clitch my bet should of been returned or at the very least the dealer should of delt atleast one other card on the 5|3 and 5|6 hands as it would of been impossible to bust, who in there right mind would stand on 11 or 8 on blackJack. (You can tell from my previous bets/history that I would not have stood on anything below 11) I did make a complaint but still waiting for a reply which im told could take upto 10 days which I think is unfair as it was my money and obviously that some sort of glitch occurred through no fault of my own.

More bad reviews for his disaster of a company. Winning bets / going to withdraw much needed winnings and then hit with an account suspension and requiring all kinds of personal docs and information to get it unlocked – and it will take 6 days for them to look at it! Total disaster of a company!

Be warned this site's slot games are more corrupt than a politician

Stay away from sky Vegas and casino. You have no chance when betting on the slots. I'm more than happy to lose if I am being greedy and I have done reviews saying this but skybet doesn't give you the chance to be greedy. Absolute con artists.. avoid wasting your money.

Tested this site and deposited a total of £40 and played King Kong Cash kept count how many times was spun a chance of getting the Kong feature in total the feature was available on 54 occasions but only successful 7 times that is roughly a 13% success rate that tells you that this site is very poor

Absolute shambles of a betting firm! Worst prices and terrible traders who are so slow Updating prices that its quicker to run to your local bookie and put a cover bet on than wait for their traders who are all surely aged 6 or under! Shambles keep clear guys! Me done with them.

Very poor site have been playing Kong Cash,on the very few times got the King Kong feature was rewarded with a £0.15,£0.17,£0.46 and£0.54 feature wins .This companies payout percentage is by far the worst even moreso than Jackpot Joy

Skybet and all Sky related gambling sites are in my mind the best by a long way, the bonuses are good with a few daily freebies that are fun and above all winnings carry no ridiculously impossible wagering which is great as so many online casino's etc. have hidden weighting and little tricks like using real cash before wagering which is often up to 99x your so called winnings!

Also they take gambling responsibility very seriously and are honest regarding the expectations of long periods of play, only yesterday I received an email stating the following:

"The outcome of each 'event' – so each spin, each card, each number called – is completely independent of the one that came before it.

The odds are always in favour of the gaming company (something called the 'House Edge'), so the longer you play – and the more cash you stake – the more you’re likely to lose."

Which is so great to see some truths even if it may be a forced responsibility it is clear and not hiding the facts.

Website is clearer than most so again no hidden surprises and withdrawals have been almost instant for me (using Visa debit card).

Well done Skybet / Vegas / Lotto / Casino and any others I've missed.

Skybet has a very user friendly interface, both web and the mobile apps work fine, Live chat staff are always very helpful and friendly I have made so many mistakes placing bet and they would void them if you asked, Never had any problems withdrawing either.

Skybet are now paying out on winning bets on the fc nacka iliria vs assyrian united game. I did some research, contacted fc nacka iliria vis facebook and the found out the game was not abandoned and resulted in 7-0. If skybet have not paid you and get in touch and complain about it.

Trying to submit a complaint through online chat and complaints to say that someone used my name and email to open an account with sky bet. All I keep receiving is that they need my personal details, full name, dob, mother's maiden name etc.to be able to speak to me in the first place. I have never opened an account with this organisation, therefore it should not have my personal information, and whoever opened that account have also used someone else's bank details (so did not have all my details I suppose) and I cannot get this resolved, my details already been compromised and I only get one date of birth and one mum. Ridiculous.

Same as the previous review however mine was even worse. As the game started i bet £10 the correct score of 7-0 at odds of 100/1. They said the game was abandoned in the 83th minute but they had live coverage until the 86th minute and william hill had coverage until the 88th minute. They told me that they paid out to customers who put fc nicka to win as a good will gesture. Those odds were terrible. Completely about what money could save and not pay out. Spiteful decision since i had the hardest bet going right and yet they paid out on the easiest result. Closed my account. They don’t deserve my custom. Also they took the cash out away a minute after the 7th goal went in(75 minute). Correct score disappeared but all the others were still available for cash out.

Worst online bookmaker by an absolute mile backed a team at half time last night team were leading 3-0 so i backed them -4 goals at odd of 5/4 they were leading 7-0 on 83 minutes match finished at this stage and they declared the result void every other online bookmaker settled the result as a 7-0 win

A lot of scams going on here, that are set up between sky, horse trainers and jockeys etc. Never use the so called specials. They’re all scams. And won’t let you cash out when you click the cash out button! Fraudsters!

Con bookies I won on the horse racing the horse won bigger price I took they didn't pay me out on Guaranteed prices they should not be able to get away with this but they do

They are a load of crooks, i placed a winning treble they told me it was not placed, balance in my account disappeared and when i enquired they suspended the account. Last year because Frankie Dettori was getting a few winners at Goodwood they would not allow you to back him in doubles or trebles

They are a disgusting bunch i would advise punter to stay clear

This company has a new Con going on. In their Live Casino there is a Buffalo Blitz game where during peak hours they have between 40-100 people all popping bets on this slot and having gone through one 4 hour sitting the payout was less than 10% or a loss of over £1200.

But wait, at 2.30am 3 people on the game won 500 times their bet.

Lets look at this. If everyone in the hour they paid our something won say £300 each or £900, this equals a loss to Skybet of £900 then in the other 23 hours 50 people lost £250 each that's 50 x 250 x 23 = Profit to Skybet of over £287,500 every single day.

Just another example of bent sites

Not bad business.

Absolutely shambolic. I have been a customer for nearly 2 years and they claim to offer Cashouts on most bets. I have had 27 bets where the cashout is available but their system makes it Unavailable (not suspended). In all instances the bets will still as decreasing cashouts and you can never cashout. Strangely 26 of those 27 lost.

I have over 100 cashouts that were successful and 97% of those would have won anyway.

Hence it would appear they are manipulating markets.

I actually pulled them on this and they accessed my account while it was happening and it proved that they are at fault. They assured me that they had fixed the issue and after 8 successful cashouts I had another for nearly £500 which I wanted to cashout and that too became unavailable. They have since denied all knowledge of the previous issue and called me a liar and that the market was suspended.

I suspect that I am not the only one who has faced this issue so if I am not alone please use IBAS to register this with them and bring this company to justice. It appears their Traders are purposely manipulating markets and they see what i see but they use magic buttons to stop you cashing out.

I Had big problems getting my money off of Skybet. Put £30 into my account. Placed a few bets and ended up winning a 4-fold acca on the footie for £156.73. Went to withdraw it and they want me to send in my ID. Have now sent it three times, to different people, and the situation isn’t resolved. Just pay me my money ! I had to blend in but answer that 6-question survey and help me change the industry https://forms. gle/YbNttedF8cpxjcXE8

My friend had a bet for 150 pound they didn’t give it him because he had a over so many tackles even though he had more they said no 3 other sites said he had had that they refused to honour his bet because on there site it said differently pmsl 😆 and for my own experience the dealer on black jack got 3 blackjacks and won or pushed with me when he had 13 by hitting a 7 to push my 20 and a 8 to make it 21 but more mad for my mate pmsl 😆 they did offer a 5 pound free bet as there sorry to him not 150

Easy to use. Great betting company. Beats all of the ones that i have ever used, easy to use the app, and payouts are quick and within 1hr if you use Barclays. Good customer service teams always available at hand, with fast response time.

Don’t bet with this company!! I just placed £300 on the game goonies and the most I won was £22 on the bonus after that nothing!!! I filmed it to show everyone in YouTube what a rip off they are!!

I tried to open an account with them today after I heard an advert on the radio but I wasn’t able to deposit money because my Revolut debit card wasn’t accepted. I was told from one of their customer service agents that they are treating Revolut debit cards as a credit cards and because of the new regulations credit cards are not accepted anymore for gambling purposes my transaction cant be processed. I know it’s their business and their rules but they cant twist the obvious which is a debit card is still a debit card not a credit card plus their customer service is zero, the agent was arrogant and end up the chat without trying to assist me what else I can do.

Appalling bullying by this company. No wonder they have a 1 star rating. Go elsewhere…
I had an account with a company called Surrey Sports, for over 25 yrs. SkyBet took them over and so then they now held my account. Bear in mind, I've therefore never opened an account with Sky Bet, nor agreed to their terms etc.
This year they blocked my account, no reason, no call or email..nothing.
When I rang, the guy went away to speak to his 'team'. He then came back to say ' we aren't offering you an account any more, so it's closed'. MY account had over £70 so they've effectively stolen my money. I said, fine..I never opened your account..you ve inherited mine, but you re not taking my money.

I asked for the name of the legal entity that now owned my account, so I can issue a county court claim for my money. He then went away again to say ' the team will contact you to advise you about your money'

Thieving bas@@@ds. Not sure if I will get my money. They simply took over a company that I had my account with and because the terms of my account are different, since I've not agreed to THEIR terms, they want to close it AND take my money.

Just another case of how big companies bully the man on the street. They don't care, they do what they want. It's up to us all to stand for what's right, however small. It's not the £70, I hardly bet, it's just the occasional game etc but we should all take note.

Always when I back against favorite and they lose the game my bet is suspended. Favourite team come back and win and I can't cash out all game. F*** you skybet

Panzer 7: have been reading the reviews on this site and they have confirmed my growing fears that sky bet are at least a dubious gambling site and NOT to be trusted. E.G on their Prize machine competition i spun the wheel and surprise surprise yet again i won a 10p scratchcard and for the umpteenth time i couldnt play it because the game only loads uo to 98% and stops there, it never fully loads.they claim all their games are fully tested and verified by an independent source ( apparently somewhere in Alderne ) Lol what a joke.Lastly i tried to place a tennis bet on the ATP Dubai final and guess what its not featured anywhere on the site ( very cynical )could this be because Djokovic is in it and will more than likely win , so they would have a big payout ( COWARDS !!!) No more Skybet for me.
