SkyBet Review

Taking them to court . Bet should have been Void , contacted Sky Bet they said no bet stands , then you get the “ is there anything else I can help you with ? “.
Don’t you just detest that so much , when they couldn’t care a hoot about your query.
See what you say Sky bet when you receive the papers .

When you look at other reviews on here they are associating two different sites, sky bet and sky vegas. I've used both and when it comes to sky bet odds are a bit lower on certain markets but great choice of markets and fast withdrawal. Sky vegas on the other hand I would give 2/5.

Over past 3 days I've had over £1000 pound taken from my account but will sky bet sort it will they hell. I've been in touch with bank and they are looking into it but all sky bet keep saying is I must of give my details to someone else to spend all my money the company is a joke and I will not be using them no more

Will never use this company again. Someone hacked into my account and deposited and withdrew money to my bank account. £328 seems to have gone missing from my bank account on small bets during one day. Bank notified and cancelled card. The bank then wrote to sky bet and asked them to investigate. Sky bet come back with a letter to bank accusing me of 1st party fraud. Bank have now taken the £328 out of my bank. Asked Skybet for details of transactions – they wouldn't send me these, telling me to report it to the police.
F'ing joke

If I could give them no stars I would do …useless the worst customer service I have ever come across. They suspended my account because I gave them my middle name which I usually use in most of my account but I happened to have used my first name when I registered with them. When I tried to explain I actually do have more than one name got constant questions of whether my first name was my legal name?? They are both my legal names. I just happen to use one of them how difficult is that??. I then called to cancel my account and withdraw my money that I had on the account and was met with more rudeness being accused of being rude when asked to spell my name I said its exactly as it sounds. I was then kept on hold for over 10mins probably in the hope that I would hang up this after the gentlemen constantly interrupted me as I tried to figure out what was rude about what I said. It's all round crap, the bets are s**t its constantly suspended and clearly they dont care about the clients.

There price boost odds aren't even as high as the normal odds on other bookies.

Whiles I Reed the rest of the reviews I see nothing has changed. I sent all profs needed and still account suspended. Quick to accept you when you are losing but when you are winning soo many issues to keep your money.
Cokez115; I am still waiting to access my account and withdraw my 7k, no fraud or wrong doing here.

Sky bet has the WORST bonus payout I have ever encountered, sky vegas, bet £2000 and get up to 50 free spins….
The spins are worth only 10p each, not worth having.
There millionaire machine is a total joke, I have spun it 50 times and won 98p total..
There sports bets promotions are the worst in the industry too..
Sky bet will not reward loyal customers even if you spend £5000 a week..
It's just another company that turns over 100s of millions penny pinching.
There are much better companies out there.
Avoid at all costs!!!

I was questioning my net losses as it was saying 57 pound on my side of things and the advisor said that was because of the 5 pound free bet. Also I wasn't getting my rewards from the promotions I even provided the screenshot saying could not load game etc contact customer service. I did an use that against me amazing customer service. You lied to me over the phone no matter which way you spin it but you guys are making me out to be a bad customer that doesn't warrant an account. Okay mate no worries as I said in the last email you guys were desperate to close my account and congratulations you have done it 👍

Shocking company won a a bet and then they restrict the account saying I need to send documents as the account is in my partners name but my card, quick to take the money from account no problem but get a win then there's a problem…once this is resolved I'm off to bet365 as cashout aswell is shocking

Reply

They pay badly on accumulators even under your investment when you win. Their return prices are not real. Absolute waste of time and big time loosing money risk.

Reply

Absolute joke of a company. Have taken away my Best Odds Guarantee and get this…I tried to put £13 on a 66/1 shot horse and they said maximum allowed is £1.52. Last night I bet £10 on a horse and the cash out was £7.61 straight after (price hadnt changed). With Bet365 the cash out is the whole amount as long as price hasnt changed! Will be closing account today and telling them what I think of them. They are not fit for purpose. I cant understand why apart from an odd bet anyone would use them as their main bookmaker or show them any loyalty. They certainly dont show their customers any! AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE IF YOU WANT FAIRER DEALS!

Absolutely terrible company to deal with. I’m done with this lot.

I am shortly to stop betting with these utterly useless tossers. They ask for feedback and never, ever, ever reply or acknowledge. Three times I've asked them why Sheff Utd v Burnley is not listed for 2nd Nov even though it's one of their Super6 matches. Happens often. Plus I've tried for weeks to get £100 bet on a team to finish above another inthe Championship. No chance with Skybet. Their site is a baffling waste of time. I am closing my account as soon as it suits ME. Do not waste your time and money with these chumps.I wish I could give them no stars not one.

Soooooo slow to pay up. Quick to take your money though

Absolute joke of a company! Takes ages to settle bets and don't care about customer service!
I am a YouTube influencer and I have 2.6 million viewers who I will be passing this onto. Absolute disgrace

Please do not use this company. I have had my account severely restricted and now I am going to tell you why. I have studied the behaviour of the skybet traders and compiled a dossier over the past 2 years and I now have sufficient evidence to prove that they have people on the inside passing on information to the trading team which they then use to put up so called 'price boosts' knowing fine well that these boosts wont be winning. They are cheating and manipulating markets to con mug punters out of their hard earned cash. I know which Jockeys, Trainers are on the skybet payroll and also have photographic evidence of skybet representatives sitting in jockeys weighing rooms and mixing with jockeys and trainers in order to gain inside information. People need to be made aware of these underhand tactics and stop using skybet. This brings the integrity of racing under scrutiny and I am sure in years to come we will find out what exactly skybet and other betting firms have really been doing in order to make their massive profits. Please pass on this information to others and stop people making these companies even more richer. They are defrauding the general public.

Seems like it's liability management month at skybet… Anyone who dared to back winners are Not Welcome… The betting restrictions are a joke when they kick in… You want 20 or 30 quid on, they'll tell you can only stake 2 or 3 quid.. All best odds guaranteed and Free bet offers taken away also.. Faceless traders, who make decisions, but cannot be questioned.. As people have already stated in previous reviews, Mug Punters are all they want…The most disgraceful bunch of Cowboys in the industry. Do Not bet with them,and tell all punters you know to go elsewhere.. Try Bet365, Coral or Hills…

Reply

Only interested in losers they have informed That they have informed me that following a recent review by there trading team mY account requires tighter liability management I can no longer be eligible for any free bets or cash credits offered as part of any promotional offer from Skybet.
What they are saying is we don’t want to give you any of the offers and that they give it the big one advertising fantastic offers that they offer to try to get MUG PUNTERS HOOKED when they realise you are not a MUG PUNTER they restrict you ironic they restrict me in RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING WEEK SKYBET ARE HYPOCRITES ONLY INTERESTED IN LOSERS

There site is the best to use. For ease and to find what you need. They’re Vegas is shocking. Promotions are appalling and payouts are none existent. Thousands spent with no returns. More fool me for thinking I’d win. Steer clear!

Reply

The payouts is fast and within a few hours… But other than that nothing special and the interface is very clunky.

These jokers just keep trading!! How? With all the dreadful treatment they dish-out to their customers, or should I say ex-customers, judging by the huge number of 1 star reviews on trustpilot. They surely can't have many punters left? I urge any punter reading this review, to help us all to hit these Cowboys where it hurts!! In the pocket!! Simply, don't ever bet with Sky bet again, and urge all other punters to do the same. If we all work together, we can get rid of these betting industry scammers!!!

Their in-play is atrocious. Just waited during last 10 minutes to bet on Scotland rugby game and it was constantly suspended. Poor in play performance. Not a patch on

so i participated in the 10% tennis back promo and even though I made all the bets correctly just because i did not click the opt in button, despite it being clear I place in-play tennis bets for the promo they would credit me all because i didn't press a silly button. All this talk about levelling the playing field one at a time on the advertisement is nonsense. They did give me a 30 pound free bet instead but that nothing as they owed me 60-100 pound cash avoid at all cost.

i feel it is about time i reported this site. i have had many bad experiences. and its finally gone beyond a joke. skybet has on two occasions in the last couple of weeks stole two debit card payments at exactly 01:41am (including this morning) i got my bank to reverse the payment back. because i bet quite often on the football they think i will NOT notice when money gets taken out of my account due to many pending transactions. but i do. my brother warned me about them when they used to steal money from his account. but i did not listen. i have had to also call them when they have not paid out my full winnings on bets. they then refund me. if one team get postponed or abandoned the amount of money they take off your bet is ridiculous. the only reason i joined skybet was because of the fast withdrawal. which again has been a problem. i have had to call them to withdraw my money manually well after 2 hours. this thieving corrupted site DOES need investigating. see for yourselves people

do not use thease frauds i had 3 wins in a day now they have restricted my account and refuse to pay out .They are scammers and staff are thiefs

Reply

Stake restrictions after 2 days of winning bets. Even though they tell you that it has nothing to do with winnings or amounts withdrawn they stake restricted my account right after I had 2 winning day's streak and witdrawn £800. Customer service is useless as they just copy and paste whatever it says on the help artricles anyway and do not give any reasons.

Had 10 free spins 3 times in the last week on the prize machine. Could be worse right? I won £0.26p off of 30 spins.

Sometimes you got to wait over an hour for the bet to settle, awful.

Gubbed after 3weeks,

Skybet give the worst cash out.
If you are winning the will put a team thats half way through half time on suspended so you can't cash out.
I had 3 teams out of 10 winning and the other 7 not even kicked off yet but the cash out was quarter of the bet that i paid. Most of the time they won't put the correct shots on goal or possession on the ball to confuse you when betting on in play matches.
Please avoid this site.

Do Not use these lot for a bet whether it's a toss of a coin. Seriously STAY AWAY. I have warned you!!!

Most ridiculous losing runs ever seen. £500 played and not one withdraw-able win over £100. This all in 2 months. Shocking company; do not recommend.

WHAT A DISGRACEFUL COMPANY
THIS COMPANY DESERVES TO GO BUST I WILL SUPPORT ANY WAY IF IT MAKES THIS HAPPEN.
There should be a law brought out against any betting company stake restricting anyone

What a pathetic way to treat a customer of nearly five years, I normally bet less than £50 a week just as a hobby so I cannot understand why there is a problem and you need to restrict my account.
I feel very sorry for the people who work for you in this such vile industry.

Do Not use these Cowboys.. They're not bookmakers in any way, they are an investment capital company who only want "Mug" punters… If you keep losing your money, they love you, but dare to Win!!! Then restrictions kick in, and they will only lay you 2 or 3 quid!!! Complained about these jokers a few times, but my last complaint they objected too, basically, accusing my of lying? When I called them corrupt and scammers, when reviews over the last 2 months on Trustpilot have called them, Corrupt, Scammers, Dubious, Fraudulent, Fraudsters and criminals, but all these reviews have remained on Trustpilot.. I'm not sure if it's getting personal, or skybet really do not like everyone knowing the truth…

Don't play Super 6, they give the prizes to people who have lower scores!!! Been playing for weeks now, and scored higher than most of the 'winners'. Absolute fraud!!!

Reply

They only want the Mug punters, As soon as you start wining they restrict your bets and don't offer you any of the bonuses.
I wasn't even betting huge amounts £30 max(for a liability of £30) and they wouldn't take it.
I wouldn't bother using them, take your custom elsewhere where your likely to be treated fairly!

Surprised to read so many bad reviews and I have been using Sky Bet for years and have never had any problems with them. I only bet on football and few other sports and don't use their other platforms i.e casino, games, poker. I like their fast withdrawals. I won £300 couple months ago withdrew it logged out of the app and checked my bank account and the money was there in an instant so very good if you need the money ASAP!

Reply

Easy app to use but if a popular bet is looking like it will pay out Sky Bet will Not allow you to cash out till the end of the football game. Prime example England v Kosovo. Had a – 3 for England and they were up at half time 5-1, couldn't cash out yet my colleagues on Bet365 could. Deleted account and using something else now.

Reply

Very bad company. I withdraw a lot of pounds and I never received it. They suspended my account after withdrawal. They are ordinary thieves. I'll never back to them.

Reply

The app is pretty good and easy to navigate. The profit loss function is also useful to help you manage your spending. However.. They definitely scam consumers. I had a football request-a-bet where 6/7 of the options were coming in on the 47th minute but it was only showing 5/7. It didn't show that 5+ corners each team had come in, which would have boosted my cash out. I spoke to them on twitter and noticed other users having the same problem, sky's response was that corners may not show until after the game, but not to worry as the cash out value wouldn't be affected! Of course it's affected, its another part of the bet that's already won, therefore the chances of winning the overall bet increase, boosting cash out value! I was just waiting on a player being booked.. The corners section of the bet was finally ticked in the 85th minute.. and the player I needed to get booked got substituted 20 seconds later. I don't think thats a coincidence. Thousands of people had this requestabet and sky prevented everyone having a decent cash out. Very corrupt.

I think this company is going down. They treat me like garbage asking for documents from owner of the house which I am renting. And it looks like my last withdrawal has not even been processed since I am not getting the money in my account. And I can't check the situation through my account because it is suspended and I don't have access to it.
