    Betfair is way better than bet365 simply because Betfair is a public company and Bet365 is a private company usually private companies can shut your account down anytime and reduce your betting limits. While public companies like Betfair has to be very careful in how they treat there customers or it will affect there rating on the stock market.

    Bet with betfair and you'll be satisfied and its the only book you will ever want to use!!  GL

    Other problems with bet365 site is when sometimes when your gambling on live betting there lines with disappear and you cant cash out your bet and when sometimes when they do maintance on there site there site will disappear from radar and thats bad for betters and there site wont go up for another 2-3 hours.

    Betfair is much bettor there lines never disappear especially when your on live betting and they hardly do any maintainence on there website.

    I give betfair A+ rating while I give bet365 a rating of a B-

    Betfair is garbage. Had an account with them and it was nothing but trouble. Withdrawing money was like having teeth pulled. Never had a problem with Bet365. or Pinnacles.

    If you received your money from betfair then everything is A OK!!

    My account was recently suspended from Bet365 cause they are accusing me that I have a gambling problem which I dont!!  A supervisor named SIAN at BET365 called me up and I had to answer there 9 questions to see if I had a gambling problem my answers were evaluated by management and they SHUT MY ACCOUNT DOWN no questions ask. I have ask SBR to evaluate those 9 questions to see if bet365 shut my account illegally!!

    I have also reported bet365 to the gambling commission!! Beware of Bet365!!

    BET 365 IS CORRUPTED SPORTSBOOK BELOW ARE THE QUESTIONS THAT WAS ASK AND IT DOESNT CONSTITUTE A GAMBLING ADDICTION!!


    The questions which form our Responsible Gambling questionnaire are as follows:

    1. Do you gamble to escape from a boring or unhappy life?
    2. When gambling and you run out of money, do you feel lost and in despair and need to gamble again as soon as possible?
    3. Do you gamble until your last penny is gone, even the fare home or the cost of a cup of tea?
    4. Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of money or time you have spent gambling?
    5. Have you lost interest in your family, friends or hobbies because of your gambling?
    6. After losing, do you feel you must try and win back your losses as soon as possible?
    7. Do arguments, frustrations or disappointments make you want to gamble?
    8. Do you feel depressed or even suicidal because of your gambling?

    In a recent interaction you have answered all the above questions with "No".

     

    I confirm that following a recent Management review the decision has been made to close your bet365 account on a permanent basis.

     Kind regards,

    I have information on bet365 that will really show you everything. From customer discrimination, corruption, misleading advertisement, bribery and more. 

    Ive been treated so bad too. Check the status updates from a third party that has some of my information

    The questions which form our Responsible Gambling questionnaire are as follows:

    1. Do you gamble to escape from a boring or unhappy life?
    2. When gambling and you run out of money, do you feel lost and in despair and need to gamble again as soon as possible?
    3. Do you gamble until your last penny is gone, even the fare home or the cost of a cup of tea?
    4. Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of money or time you have spent gambling?
    5. Have you lost interest in your family, friends or hobbies because of your gambling?
    6. After losing, do you feel you must try and win back your losses as soon as possible?
    7. Do arguments, frustrations or disappointments make you want to gamble?
    8. Do you feel depressed or even suicidal because of your gambling?

    In a recent interaction you have answered all the above questions with "No".

     

    I confirm that following a recent Management review the decision has been made to close your bet365 account on a permanent basis.

     Kind regards,

    Interesting how BET365 took this decision.

    By the way, Bet365 won a case, and is officially licensed for sports betting in Bulgaria So Betfair and Bet365 are now both licensed in Bulgaria.

    The issue with Betfair has always been offering American sports with the ability to wager above 100 dollars.  There are never enough offers in sufficient amounts to make it worth your while

    I've checked them out, but they don't compare to matchbook with matchbook you always have the ability to wager bigger amounts. 

    I have my doubts whether matchbook is truly a matching sportsbook as their CFL game lines almost match Pinnacle's lines exactly and when Pinnacle's lines move, so does matchbook's.  So, of course that leads one to believe that they are playing the role of bookmaker as well.  With commissions of 1%, who cares who you are betting against?

    There's been log in issues with my account at matchbook, and they haven't offered WNBA or overnight NBA lines, but other than that, they have been a good sportsbook.

    Betfair is a better compare to bet365. Been enjoying making bets on Betfair and as of now I don't encounter any problem with them. Bet365 is a scammer they just close my account without giving any explanations.
