Am changing from bookie because they have no in play betting feature.
What do yall use of the two?
Cant use bet365 by the way... netherlands
EDIT: Thanks guys, I think I'll go with unibet!

Hey all,
Is anyone aware of the issue they are currently experiencing? Always use a prepaid CC to deposit, even as of last week i did so. Tried again today, states they cant deposit using this card for reasons beyond their control. The live help customer service rep told me they working on the issue but no time table is available. I dont think they even know whats going on..
Anyone have an update or aware of why 365 not allowing funds from prepaids to be deposited?

I've been restricted by BET365 couple of days ago. No reasons why have been provided. I suspect that I'm a winning customer which is something that they don't like for obvious reasons. I was lucky and I have won over 6 thousand Euros over 4 months period (Jan - Apr).
I've been searching after on my own then on the Google and it seems that it is pretty common unethical/possibly illegal thing that they do. I found out that in Spain the group of restricted customers sued BET365 and then in September 2019 they won and the court ordered BET365 to have their accounts become unrestricted. I wonder how many of us are there? Can we join to a class lawsuit?
Here's the link of the above mentioned article. It is in spanish, but I believe that Google can translate it for you. It did for me.

I think when I realised I just blew through £4,000 in less then 3 days is what really pushed me. I'm 20, turning 21 soon, in University, and I first started sports betting when I was 16, using BTC online. As soon as I turned 18, I had signed up straight away to Bet365. Within a few months I had spent my £800 savings. I did have my highs and lows, but I think I had it under control then, I even had a tipping service, and to be honest, it didn't feel like a problem then.
Once I started University (and for those who don't know) in England we get essentially "free" money (free being you only pay it back when you earn a certain threshhold and you pay a bit each month)
Suddenly I had £1500 to do what I wanted with, and guess what, I deposited it into sports betting.
I don't really remember what I had done back then, my memory is hazy, but I don't think it ever resulted in anything good.
When I moved to another University, I moved away, and that's when my troubles really came to light, before you see, it didn't matter if I was with £0 balance, everything was provided, but as soon as I started leaving it started to impact me.
Every start of term, I would feel "rich" sometimes winning up to 3x/4x my deposit, but just as quickly I had won, I would lose, because (to those familiar with the sports betting world, you're supposed to use a bank roll and percentage, but I alwas pretty much did either 50% or 100%)
The first few days I had successes, I would order takeaways etc, enjoy my time watching games, and pretty much it, but the other 2 months where I had 0, I had to eat one meal a day and buy just bread/milk/cheese/ham and repeat
Everytime I came back home, I was skinny
Last few months were the worst, because I blew through £9000 in 2 months.
It started in September, £1500 from the government and £3000 from my parents (to pay for University which I had kept because I took out a loan for the University too..)
Everything was going "decently" well
I had bought a trip to an EU country to visit my gf, the night before after going to town to do some shopping before I left, I had bet on a women volleyball game, and I was pretty confident.
and they lost.. in the last set, something like 13-15 (huge upset after coming back from 0-2 down.)
Anyhow, suddenly I was at a point where I blew through my gambling money, I had withdrawn to my bank £1000 to pay for everything since Booking didn't take the money for the hotel out beforehand.
Anyway, the morning before my flight, I had started betting with the aim to take my £1000 and double it.
I pulled it off, but I missed my flight.
£50 + £150 gone just like that (for the taxi+flight)
I made some excuse to my gf about the plane being cancelled, and rebooked the flight for the next day.
The night before this departure, it was much better, I had £2000 in my account, £1000 in my debit card saved to pay for the hotel and any amnesties while I was there.
I took the flight, kept myself from gambling until I landed and I said to myself, one more game then I stop for the week and enjoy my time with her.
Well, while on the bus, I found the perfect game:
https://www.sofascore.com/valencia-basket-barca-basket/TvbsVvb
Anyhow, I arrived, met her, but the game was still going, it was close and I had to keep checking my phone.
When I arrived to the hotel, it was in the last minute, and the score was tied, I got nervous, cashed out (losing about £200)
Felt pretty annoyed, gambled that evening on another game to try and "make up" and guess what, I lost.
So, I'm sure you can guess where this is going...
I deposited the £1000 that I saved to pay for the hotel to try and make everything back.
Guess what, it didn't work.
Well, queue me being in another country, with literally 20 euroes to my name and 6 days to pay my hotel.
So I called my parents and lied about some books I needed and a course, 400 sent, tried to bet with that, lost.
600 the next day
450
560
Until finally I asked for 1500 and won and stop myself.
In those few days I legit contemplated just leaving the hotel without paying, but in the end, I did pay, went back.
Then spent the next few days depressed.
Then I did the same thing,
400
700
500
every few days.
Soon, £9000 in less then a month.
All gone.
I was sad, but eventually I had forced myself to stop, it wasn't fair.
Well, the next month consisted of me eating literally ham/cheese sandwich, ramen noodle and food I found in the bin that my flatmates threw out.
Well, after what seemed like an eternity, a few days ago I finally got money again from the government, lost that, got money from my parents for university, lost that, and now I'm preparing to head back to University with 0 to my name and survive for 3 months till I come back home, and another 4 months till I get my next allowance.
But the next time, I don't want to gamble and lose it all for nothing.
I guess the sad part is, when I had a lot of money, be it £8000 or £5000, what did I ever buy? Nothing..
A few takeaways and meal deals here and there, but that was about it, the trip was my biggest expense, I sold my phone that my parents bought me, a watch that I got for my 18th birthday + more.
:(
The funny thing is, Bet365 messaged me after my £9k stint in 1 month and asked for proof of funds (they would call me every few months before this saying things like oh am I happy etc, and ofc I would lie..)
I faked some documents, played it like I was a baller with 60k to my name, and after that they wanted more evidence, tax returns etc, and eventually closed my account.
I fucked myself so much that a bookmaker closed my account just to stop me losing more.. (23k in total lost to them over 2 years.)
+ on top of that I have 2 student overdraft, one -£2000 and one -£1500 and a loan which I defaulted on £1000 to the point where i'm being rejected even for normal current accounts.

I had this soccer special on bodog today “Lyon, AZ Alkmaar & Feyenoord - All To Be Winning at Half Time (+1200)” all three of these teams were winning at half time but my bet was considered as a loss. I called in and spoke to someone who said it would be looked at cause I made them double check all the games as I had full proof that I was correct. I also sent an email in so I should be fine was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else before?
Edit: They actually adjusted it and I’ve won the wager now

Lump on. That is what the Football Association would like you to believe Kieran Trippier told his friends shortly before his move to Atletico Madrid. It implies a ring, a sting and big, big rewards, hence his 10-week ban. It was nothing of the sort.
Transcripts reveal a more earthbound reality. The circle trying to win a few quid, the player trying to be a pal. One of Trippier's mates asks if he should 'lump on' — the first time the phrase is used — and gets the reply: 'Can do mate.' Later, pressed, Trippier adopts the same turn of phrase. 'Lump on if you want mate,' he advises. It is the tamest of endorsements.
Yet, as the friends swiftly discover, lumping on really isn't an option. Bookmakers don't want anyone lumping on a transfer bet because the only person who would enter such an unpredictable market with cash and confidence is in the know. Nobody is betting big money on a hunch.
So it's a win-win. If the move collapses the bookmakers keep the cash, and if it delivers they have the safety net of football's governing body to do their dirty work, if betting patterns indicate prior knowledge. So one of Trippier's friends had his stake 'massively restricted', and another got £300 on, but only at odds of 1-6, giving bookmakers a liability of £50 and a red flashing light.
Some of the other bets were laughable: £8.75 at 1-2, liability £4.37; £20 at 1-2, liability £10; £20 at 1-3, liability £6.66; £25 at 8-13, liability £15.38. The biggest bets were undermined by short odds: £100 at 5-6, liability £83.33; £120 at 5-6, liability £100. Another bet of £300 at 4-11 gave the winner £109.09, while £80.34 was wagered at 3-10, a return of £24.10.
The significant numbers here are not being made off book-makers. 'Levy just wants £500,000 more,' Trippier told his acolytes at one stage. According to FA evidence, the fee was finally agreed with Tottenham for £25m, which rather puts that £4.37 into perspective, or even the big hit, £109.09. As does the £482m Denise Coates was paid as chief executive of Bet365 across two years between 2017 and 2019.
And, yes, it's the principle that counts, not the profit. Trippier should not have been sharing privileged information with people he must have reasonably assumed were using it for gambling purposes.
Yet, why, exactly? This isn't a match. He isn't affecting the outcome and therefore the integrity of a competition. Bookmakers have chosen to make a market on his life, and in doing so have placed him in jeopardy.
Who makes significant career decisions without discussing it with family or friends, without taking counsel, or offering progress reports? Trippier did not ask for this book to be opened, and receives no revenue from it. Maybe that is what should change.
The only way these bans and fines would be fair is if book-makers had to seek permission from the individuals involved, who would receive a cut of the revenue as part of their image rights. Then, if a player was found to be manipulating the market, or offering the inside track, it would be fraud and he could be penalised accordingly.
This is just the FA acting as bookies' muscle. If they didn't pursue cases against players such as Trippier and Daniel Sturridge, the gambling houses would soon tire of losing and the problem would go away. It is the FA that facilitates this by acting as enforcer — as if the grubby charade is any of their business.
This is now being tested. Atletico Madrid have challenged the ban which is suspended, pending appeal. The club will go to FIFA and then the Court of Arbitration for Sport if unsuccessful.
Their case is simple. They bought a player. They had nothing to do with a betting scandal that took place when he was still under contract to Spurs, or a punishment handed down from a different country. Had Trippier served it as administered, he would have missed 13 Atletico matches including the home Champions League fixture with Chelsea. As he would not even be allowed inside the training ground before March 1 — or to attend a game — his place in the Madrid derby scheduled for March 7 would have been in jeopardy, too.
And this is a huge season for Atletico. They top the table with a two-point lead and games in hand on Spain's big two. They could win LaLiga for only the second time since 1996 — and Trippier is their first-choice right back.
Certainly, it did not escape Atletico's attention that his ban did not impinge on any international fixtures, leaving the FA and English football unscathed. Atletico protested and FIFA listened. It could mean, if the punishment is delayed but upheld, that Trippier misses the European Championship. That leaked this week as if the FA were trying to put the frighteners on.
Yet, so what? It's their trumped-up ban. Given the friend-of-the-right-back's-cousin's-best-mate's-cleaning-lady source of transfer gossip is such a familiar trope, how preposterous is it that the FA make passing information a crime? Equally, why are they prioritising protecting the sanctity of an artificial betting market created to separate mugs from their money?
Unless some mug knows somebody, of course. Then, they'll refuse to pay, turn the source over to the beaks, and the FA will prosecute as if they've cracked the crime of the century. Strange, isn't it, that they're so fascinated by £4.37 — but rarely with the part where the real money gets made?

The line was clippers -5.5 on bet365 before the game, ended up being +51, for a 56 point difference in prediction vs reality. Has this been beat?
Edit: just remembered the bulls blowing out the bucks by 54 in 2015 playoffs. I chose a proline tie on that one lmao
