Matched betting - who's done it and who's good at it? (No Referrals)

i havent read the full thread but i made about £600 with matched betting in a month using the MSE guide, i did have one online bookie that i deposited £200 (supposed £200 free bonus) with and they sent me an email saying they wanted a copy of my driving licence and front and back of the debit card i paid with (took about a week but i got my money back)

i avoided the place 5x£XX bets or ones that you get free bonus after 1/5/10 bet also as they end up with less of a payout.

i keep getting free offers again for the odd £10 but i decided to max out as many free offers as i could and leave it for a bit as i only ever matched on football... good fun while it lasted though and a very easy bit of extra cash.
 
£12 up on Unibet Spin City free spins (download spin city app to mobile, deposit £100 and get free spins, all winnings withdrawable straight away)

£28 up on William Hill Games offer - Wager £100 on slots and get £20 bonus which needs wagering 1x. Had £9 in my account which was enough to wager through the £100 on Starburst and even give me £18 profit (big surprise! :D) then another £10 profit from the bonus.

Will make another £15 or so on the Unibet first free bet offer when it comes through later too. Decent morning!
 
Bloke at work keeps telling me about this and he seems to be doing okay at it. Just reading through the MSE guide now but its still kind of confusing.

I am looking at Paddypower and Leon de Huanuco v Sport Loreto, £25 free bet, odds are 1.53

On betfair the lay is 1.69.

According to the spreadsheet, I need at least £16.09 in my Betfair account to cover the cost of Leon losing right? So if they win I stand to have the lay stake returned to me, £23.32?

As I get it, I am backing Leon to win at PP and then laying the bet at Betfair, which means, I am the bookie as it were and am betting this NOT happening, so Leon not winning? So if they win then I win the backing at PP and if they don't win I win at Betfair?
 
You need to find odds that are close together for this to work right? Going to read over this guide again and give this a blast, the extra money would be pretty darn nice. I shall also ask the guy I work with.

Did the spin city one about an hour ago. Got 9 quid or something, but mistakenly span a quid or so not realising they weren't free anymore. Took 106.95. :)

Made about 150+ this weekend
45+ on Mecca Bingo
50+ on Think Bingo (lucky me and another player shared 100jackpot with 53 players in the room).
77 from racebets (did bet 20 get 20 offer and then they gave me another that required 3 x wagering) - just bet on a load of horse racing which I know nothing about. The favourites I put most if the bonus on won, but my 20/1 shots...less so

Yes, the further apart the more you're "wasting".

Any of you guys heard/used http://www.profitaccumulator.co.u/ ?? This is how the guy in work heard about it. I do not intend on paying for it but it has videos and guides to show you so I am going to check this out as well.

It's well worth the subscription fee. Just sign up to a platinum account and go for it - you'll make your money back 100x times over.

Diddums speaks the truth and check, check, check (when placing bets)!!!!

Forgot to say - avoid Bet at Home at all costs. They are simply terrible. It feels like every single decision they made about their site is simply worse than most rivals. The first time I used them it wasn't too much of a problem as the lay won but the second time it has been a nightmare.

What does it give you? The time it takes to find bonuses, reloads and then close odds makes the profit v time quite small and very boring.

Does the site find bonuses and odds or what?
 
All of the above. They also have a Facebook group where they post offers and people can discuss them. Then there are the Channel 4 refund offers, the acca refund tutorials, and loads more. Definitely worth the money!

Yeah - it's a massive time saver, plus the tutorials for some of the more complicated offers is invaluable.
