    Are you on the right race 5th April 16.15 as i was previously on Aintree 3rd April and obviously this is the wrong race.

    I wondered if you had done the same thing as me ?

    I don't think I could EVER become a gambler. I've sat for over an hour trying to work out how to place a bet and I'm still none the wiser! I've placed half a dozen bets to the value of £25 (to win only) but now its saying that I haven't enough money in my account but I put £10 in as instructed. I'm giving up, maybe if I have my tea things will look clearer!!!

    Where does it say place a £10 deposit you need to deposit £25 to place £25's worth of bets and if your bet wins or loses you get refunded this 25

    I've just signed up and sent in my £25 as per using my Maestro card.

    From what I've read it should have confirmed my age as only 18+ can have Maestros. However on the My Account page it still has the please confirm age box and asks me to put £2 from credit card in. Is this right?

    Thanks in advance ^^

    Placed bets this morning (can be several not just 1 at £25) luckily all horses still listed at the minute! Got £25 credited back to account about an hour later, so withdrew it straight back into bank. HTH

    Hi everyone

    I've been following the thread and the instructions with a bit of stomach-ache as I've never bet before.

    For those lost on betting there's a tutorial. Anyway, go to the grand national section, unclick the boxes on top of the list and then the list will simplify. You'll see names on the left and a figure on the right.

    I was all excited and bet £10 on the first name just to realise later that due to the odds my profits were far better on a different name. The bigger the number the better the profits (that I understood from doing it but I might be wrong).

    Anyway, apparently you can bet any amount over £1 to any of those names. I also saw the "suspended" message but refreshed a couple of times until it was gone. So pick a name and bet an amount. They will ask you to confirm so you'll understand what you're doing at some point.

    I registered through Quidco on which I'm newbie too and can't see they've tracked me. Maybe I'll just have to wait. Anyway, all this gambling have giving me a headache and I'm feeling like a gangster.

    I am hoping to get money from Quidco and the £25 back from Betfair and ran away from all this hussle.

    By the way, where do I check if I've been traced in Quidco? is it under earnings?
    Thanks a lot. This MSE website has been really helpful. :T

    Luck to all

    Put £25 in last night via paypal, bet 5 x £5 bets. £25 credited to my account already.
    I can draw that out, sorted! - max potential earning of around £2000 (i put a 400 - 1 bet on!!)
    Bit of fun - if quidco tracks i'll be a few quid up!
