    Woah, they've actually verified my age via the electoral register. wasn't expecting that to happen! did have to give them loads of info though, didn't really feel comfortable with them having so much info...damage is already done though!

    Dont worry - standard practice for online bookies/casino's etc.

    You can certainly trust Betfair

    Prob a dumb question, but can i now sign up with Paddy Power (done fairbet earlier) i am persuming that it will be ok, as i think both are different companies, but thought i would check with you Pros first, dont want to lose my £50 because im being too greedy, as well made up with the £50..

    Yes you can but please look at the gambling loopholes section you could be wasting risk free money otherwise.

    you cant place a bet at PP and then withdraw the free bet they credit you with - you have to bet that. The risk is that QUidco doesnt track and you lose both your deposit and free bet. The free bet at PP is stake not returned too so not as advantageous as the betfair one.

    It is possible to make money from these type of offers but you have to read up on matched betting on the GIOL board.

    I've said it before in this thread but I guess its too long for people to read through - this offer will not work with any other free bet type promotion at other bookies.
    The early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese :cool:

    betfair are partner friendly so your partner can sign up but best to also have a new quidco account in your partners name

    Will read up on the GIOL, i wasnt going to withdraw free bet, i thought offer was i put in £10 they match the £10 so i would have £20 to use for bets (im not a gambling person at all,) and i thought then quidco will give you £25 for opening a PP account.

    Have i read it wrong.:o

    Dumb question (well another one!!) - how do I know I will get the £25 back? I used the MSE code but I have not received any confirmation e-mail - is this normal??
