    The question now: is Yahoo sports fantasy worth it?! I don't mind depositing a fiver is I'm 50/50 to make it back, but I can't see any roulette-type games on there.

    I'm the same... Ladbroke also offered me 5 free spins for the Frankie Dettori game. I made £4, managed to bring it up to £5 on the roulette and withdrew. So that's 2040SB, a refunded fiver and an additional £5!
    I had the free spins too but didn't understand it, but I went back and had a better look and won another £2 from that so cancelled my first withdrawal of £8 and and changed it to to £10 so all in all not bad for 30 mins work.

    £5 is my limit I think, anymore than that I'm too chicken in case I don't make it back.

    I've done it, lost my fiver and it's not credited yet. It does say it takes 40 days so I've not submitted a ticket but I know a few people have and not received the SB yet. It's up to people if they want to risk it but I'm not recommending it like I did the Ladbrokes (as I knew that credited straight away and it's easy to win back your money anyway).


    There's no roulette on there, it's a fantasy football game. You have to choose players to form a football team and enter that line up in whichever competitions you choose (either PL or CL games). You're playing against other people's line-ups and whoever get the most points (for things like goals, tackles etc.) in the real life games your players are playing in wins. It's quite fun if it's your sort of thing but it's very hard and like I said, I'm not sure the offer will definitely credit.

    You just inspired me to search and I got the Earth Day collectible. Very pretty it is too :)

    If the greyed out Swago board is the real one then save some SBs back as you need to buy a giftcard for one of the outer squares.

    I'm still waiting for it to credit. I've seen some on Reddit say they have had it credit, but I'd say to do it at your own risk.

    I did this recently and it hasn't tracked. The site is suggesting it should track within an hour. Did it track OK for you?

    Just wondering as the site was very unclear. It didn't even mention depositing £5
