Interesting question, i'll also be starting up in July as a complete novice. I'll be spending much of June researching and learning i think.

Why not start now? Your missing a lot of Euro2016 offers otherwise
Very good point, i think i'll be spending most of tonight reading up on this then.
What's the best site to sigh up to? I've seen a few through around on here.

Yesbets and Profit Accumulator. I prefer Yesbets because they're cheaper and they're still in the honeymoon phase of running the site so they're really trying and they respond quickly. Profit Accumulator is almost double the price and they leave most of their queries to the community to respond.
If you want to use Yesbets drop me a trust, I've never had a referral before

I don't know what match catcher is but their matching system seems to be the Odds monkey one from what I can tell, so the same as Profit Accumulator. The fee is £15 a month.

well this seems harder than it looked lol...
when making the lay bet how to you get the correct odds? when it went through i seem to have been given different odds.??
i was meant to make a back bet of 2.25 odds to win which i did but my lay bet seems to have gone wrong, i put 2.38 odds in the box but its given me 2.36???
now i think im 7p short on my lay stake, i assuming this wont make much of a difference
think im confused on how to pick the correct lay bet...

Hours a day?! Maybe a couple hours a week, but most of that has been when I'm sat on the sofa watching TV anyway. There really hasn't been much effort involved. I missed out on quite a few of the intro offers too as I already had a few accounts with various betting sites. I was lucky and I had a fair bit of spare cash laying around which allowed me to do one of the higher return wagering offers, without that I would be about £200 down on my profit. Most of the other offers, you don't need much capital, and the way YesBets is structured it lets you work through the offers to build up your exchange balance.
It's a definitely a great time to start as there are a lot of offers coming out now for the Euros!

Yep, TONS of Euros offers. I just wish I had enough bank to profit from them all 
Is YesBets worth the premium fee?
For me, definitely! I signed up as a basic member first and did the free offers, that netted me about three times the premium fee so I figured it was worth a blast as I wouldn't be out of pocket either way.
Definitely... it's worth it for their Euro 2016 matched betting guide alone.. helping me get so many more bets on for the same liability!
Came across matched betting several years ago but didn't really get into it. I've now joined yes bets to try and give it a go.
People who've been doing it a while: once you've used up all the new customer offers, is it just a case of doing 'reload' offers? Is there enough in these to get you the consistent 500 or more a month or are you doing something else?
Cheers.

Yesbets have just put their Euro 2016 guide up. It's really helpful as I was starting to get a little confused with all the offers. Know exactly what to do and when now.

Ah OK thanks. Even a couple of hundred quid is not to be sniffed at. The general idea of this is pretty simple (bet on outcome, lay against, free bets and repeat), but I think sometimes the way offers are dressed up can be slightly confusing to noobs like me until I get a bit more proficient.
Still, done a few tonight and stand to make just over £17. Would be a bit more but StanJames have already blocked my account (after I'd deposited and bet, but before I could get my free bet
), apparently requiring photo ID..so I'll sort that tomorrow.

Thats completely standard. Get a folder on your PC loaded with photos of passport or driving licence, front and rear of bank card (the digits you have to block out varies with each bookie) and proof of address. You may be asked for it quite a lot as you sign up with different parasites, Sorry, I mean bookies.
