I kind of see where your coming from - there are very very little or limited warnings about using unheard off/tiny bookies

Almost like a guy collecting the website subscriptions doesn't give a crap about the site users or MBing in general, who would have guessed.
why not - if you're not able to take up some offers due to having insufficient cash then...
unfortunately one of the obvious risks that people who claim 'it's risk free' seem completely oblivious to

haven't got any money left this month.
if you start doing that where does it end.
it ends in you being able to do these offers more frequently

To be honest, I can really remember, but I only had one free bet and the winnings were from a bet that won into the bookies rather than the exchange.
The **** is hitting the fan though. Now The Sun and Mirror are getting involved and IBAS, the gambling regulators.
People are trying to get the premier league teams they sponsor to get involved as well.

Seemingly a lot of people having issues with 12bet/fun88/138 going by a thread on MSE. Interesting to see it get picked up by the Mirror, a few people were emailing various papers.
I did the welcome offer at 138 a ~year ago and the site didn't inspire much confidence then. At that point I decided to stick to using a handful of well known bookies. Still plenty of money to be made without scraping the barrel.
It's worrying to see so many people rushing in to MB'ing and relying solely on sites like PA to spoon feed them offers.

Got those emails from 12bet and Fun88 too.
I withdrew after Cheltenham and used Live Chat twice asking when my withdraw will be cause it took over 10 days. They said there's so many people trying to withdraw after Cheltenham that it takes a while to process all withdrawals.

Its like they've not heard of computers or something....
Genuinely curious, did you have any concerns when depositing with these sites?
If I take a look at the social media feeds and see tumbleweed it really doesn't inspire confidence.

I expected a company that falls under the auspices of IBAS, the gambling commission and sponsors two premier league football teams to be trustworthy tbh.
Are you familiar with 666bet?

Yes I vaguely remember them.
Well then, I guess I just mean people shouldn't take things for granted just because they sponsor a team or two (666bet had Leicester). IBAS/UKGC aren't much use if a bookie ceases to trade.
Anyway, hope people get their money back.
ooh, hello sailor
That bar sounds nice you mentioned yesterday.

Balances being confiscated at Betsafe too, a few days after PA got their 10 year anniversary offer canned. Hardly a coincidence. Now you can see why 99% of my posts in this thread are moaning about that ****ing site.
