to be fair, you need a lot of time to do matched betting and if you dont really want to spend time reading this then you may not understand it fully and lose patience with the process

best thing to do, read though the first couple of pages, then fixtheodds website

Are there many <£25 free bets around at the moment? Keep trying to save up some money, just to cover liability, but keep spending it :L

They have live chat. Speak to them and ask. Bookies are generally quite reasonable.

£25 is generally the most common freebet currently around. Yeah its not good to keep spending your profits. Using them to increase your float means an easier time matched betting.

I'm up to almost £3000 profit now and I haven't withdraw a penny. I'm just using it to make more money.

P.S. EuroGrand have now locked my account 'for security reasons', having reset it for me and following a request logged to withdraw my initial deposit.. dubious much?


Casino's like that are generally quite bad. Its just a case of doing research before you join and scouring the terms and conditions. If you do both of these you wont go wrong. Does sound a bit strange.


Mega reply post!

If you monitor horse racing for a while and get the feel of how the market moves I'd reccommend placing your freebet on horses.
You can easily get odds like 6-6 there.


I see, it looks kind of complicated though. Perhaps after this free bet is out the way.

Still even struggling to find any good odds today :frown:

Right click - view - show desktop icons? If they've been deleted they should be in the recycle bin.

If not, run this software. Recuva

Who actually has time to do that though.. spose it was naive of me to assume the bonus would be anything other than insidious.. ho hum!

They claim they've locked my account pending reception of proof of age.. funny how they weren't that bothered while I was rolling but as soon as I finally seem likely to actually get at least my deposit back the ***** close down my account citing legal grounds.. it's a damn good thing they're not based round the corner this lot take the piss :angry:

EuroGrand have just been a constant headache - AVOID!!


Making money takes time. learning matched betting takes time.
if you don't have time then you're probably going to make mistakes and lose money so don't do it.

The terms and conditions are there for a reason. To ensure we can read the terms of the promotion. Its never as simple as they show it to be.

Did you find a bet? What bookies are you trying to match?

Nah I didn't. Trying to find high odds 7+ etc for £25 free bet on Stan James / Betfair.

I thought I found some good odds on Correct score, but they are laid out differently on Stan James to Betfair and I really don't want to mess up my first SNR matched bet (done 1 SR before).

Same, can't see a lot good to use it on though :frown:

It doesn't explicitly state SNR, but I presume all their free bets are SNR.

Ah well, what I didn't understand was why to bet on odds of like 3.5 when I thought you were supposed to use 7+ on SNR?

Bluesquare bonuses are generally SR so get low odds for qualifier and bonus if possible
