how many hours work has it been? and have you actually got the cash??
(not being sarky, I really want to know!!)
Well I didn't do any for about a week. In total I might spend no more than 1 hour on a bookie. Could spend longer to find better odds which means more profit but sometimes it could be an hours work for 10p extra or so.
Probably in total done about 10-15 hours. No more than that. Might take a couple of hours every couple of nights. Not just find odds but keeping a diary and spreadsheet aswell. :rolleyes:
I would have the cash but I've built up a float of around £600 in Betfair so I don't have to keep depositing but if needed that money could be in my account in about 4 or 5 days.0 -
not a bad return then!
Got a hectic week planned (big exam next week) but after that might have to have another look at the matched betting thread..:rolleyes: after all, if you can do it... :rotfl:When people show you who they are, believe them the first time0 -

Got accepted for a Barclaycard and it arrived this morning! :j First I knew about it was it turning up on the doortstep! :rolleyes:
Limit is £1,950 @ 4.9% for life which is just about enough to cover my HSBC card with the 0% deal ending in about a fortnight which is quite pleasing as that was starting to worry me.
Just done the BT so when thats all sorted will see what HSBC have to offer me or it's snip snip!
Got a load of paper work to file but think I'll leave it until Tuesday!0 -
On the downside my bank statement arrived and because of all this matched betting malarky it's 11 pages! :eek:
Only used to be 4 tops! :rotfl:0 -
