    BB can you not do it all in your oh name? So you can get the free bets, or is that not allowed?

    some bookies allow partner's at the same address, but we don't live at the same address. We also have separate debit cards etc and if I re-registered (for example) with William Hill, it would recognise my card.

  • I've been reading up on Lou's site. Does it only work once ie when you have free bets from opening an account?

    that was another one of my questions - I'm guessing that once you've taken the profit from a free bet you then use that as real money to go back tot he same bookie? Otherwise you could never return? Dunno.......:confused:

    Bookie, from what I've gathered previously, the opening offers give you winnings and then you go on to re invest, using the initial winnings as seed money.
    From Lou's site, I did wonder how they calculated the amount of lay stake. I know that there are spreadsheets that can calculate this for you (I possibly missed a link on Lou's site though :rolleyes: )

    Don't forget to use Quidco when opening an account ;)

    Many bookies keep having recurring offers for existing customers to try to tempt you to bet - i.e. Cup Finals etc.

    Does the payday loan one actually work?

    Well at first yes but you will get follow up offers in the form of free bets on an ongoing basis. Friend says that about once every 3 months is an average time frame for these offers.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I hope the Payday loan one works! It did for BB and Buffy so I am not worried at the moment. I am just going to get the minimum £100 and pay back the £120 to get the £50 cashback..........£30 up Kerchingggg

    Nope cause you will win at the bookie, its all about breaking even so you get your hands on the free bet money......so your bet costs you nothing but when you win (and you always win on either the bet or the lay bet) you walk away with the winnings:D


    hmm......still being thick....ok, your back bet (ie with Corals) wins. You get your stake money and your free bet money. This means your lay bet loses. Doesn't that mean you have a liablity of the amount you put as a lay bet?? Or do I need to go back again and re-read...... :o
