Oh what the hell, I'll have a go. I've already got quite a few accounts, so I should hope for some reload offers.

100 ACCA per week would require a serious bank roll.
My WH ACCA for this week could require a £208.81 lay on its 6th leg. I can't remember if this is what it'll 'cost' in the exchange, but let's say on average each ACCA requires £100 lays... that's £10,000 you'd have tied up.
Just done 3 this week as I'm not at a PC this weekend but I might try giving 10+ a go next week.
So far I have completed 6 ACCAs
Lost one @ £20
Lost one @ £50
Lost one @ £50
Won one @ £40 (got free bet)
Won one @ £50 (got free bet)
Won all legs on ACCA made about £10.30 (adjusted lays etc)
With a bet of about £50 I aim for a loss of about £20 on 1st lay, reduce to about £12 on 2nd lay etc.
So overall I'm probably about:
-6.14
-21.50
-21.50
For the losing ACCAs
+70 (I'd say a £50 FB is about £35 each unless you wait for really good matches)
+10.30 for the ACCA that won all legs
= 31.16 profit for 6 ACCAs (£5 each)
They're not that time-consuming once you've selected the best teams for the week.
That guy, James, has a technique to always make money but I can't find it on the PA FB as it's horrendous to navigate. ;/
Going through the sign ups on our joint account atm. Hopefully bag another £500.
That mumsnet post that was linked seems to be about 80% males trying to 'push' PA...

Never a way to guarantee profit on accumulators, as you have to lay them sequentially and can't guarantee the lay odds when you start.

Careful there, some of the sign-up offers and reloads state one per household, so technically you'd be breaching the T&C's, assuming the joint account is registered to the same address.

Easy.
I'm at £5700 in 11 weeks.
That is multi accounting though - excluding those I'm at £3200 on just my accounts.

Can you give a nice newbie overview of this multi accounting thing? Or is this the same as multiple accounts i.e. friends/family and VPN?
Not too fussed either way to be honest.
It's getting a bit tedious trying to do just ACCAs, a few reloads a week and Skybet/888Sport stuff.
That.
Right William Hills free £50 has credited already, Red32 £10 free credited and already bet to win £7.50 or so profit.
Need to find something for the William hills bet but might need more in my betfair to cover the liability. Will edit later with running total !
So £33 quid profit with another £7.50 to come overnight, plus another £35 or so from William Hills free bet once I get it on tomorrow - So that £75 no risk profit. Still a bit of work involved to get use to it - already thinking I need more than 1 screen to fit all the windows/tabs I have open!!

Sky Bet refunding £25 if your horse loses this afternoon
Ah the only bookie who has ever closed my account. It happened years ago though and I can't say for certain it was for my MB work (think it happened before that), anybody had any success in getting accounts reopened? If not what are the odds I would get caught opening a new one (new address and bank cards now).

Did this, terrible odds but suppose that what you get when it's a freebie.
Managed to get 17/16 for the freebet too.

I currently have £2500 in betfair, £500 in smarkets, £800 across various bookie accounts and £2000 in the bank account.
Just mug betting my accounts for one day can empty my betfair account.

I usually favour smarkets due to the 2% commission, but I guess that if you're laying serious bank, to get it fully matched you'd need a bigger market, is that why the betfair is the highest balance?
