I don't see what all the fuss is about, Martin said to put £25 in, bet it all, then they'll give you back your £25. I read the ts and cs, and they said the same.

I've bet the £25, I won £26 (put £2.50 bets on lol, now I wish I'd bunged it all on the winner, obviously), and I've just logged in and have £56 in my account.

My only bugbear is the fact that they're taking their own sweet time to varify my age...I emailed them twice yesterday (once in the morning, once at about 11pm), now I've used their secure server to upload my driving licence. Martin did say this would only happen if you used Electron/Solo (as under 18s can have these cards), and I used a Visa Debit, (my parents both had the same thing, but have credit cards). It's a pain, but I'll live (as long as it happens eventually lol).

Same here..

I have a bank account and have lived at the same address for 5 years and am on the electral register (am way over the legal limmit by far) But they still cant verify my age either! Have emailed with drving licenece but still waiting! Rang the no and the guy said it should do it automatically when i explained all of the above, but still not sorted out!

The fuss is about the OP who has not bothered to read Martins post or check anyones questions in the thread properly before jumping in unsure of what they were doing, and of course instead of accepting they went wrong somewhere they are blaming Martin. The fact they did the same thing last year seems there is a lesson to be learnt. Slow down and read things before rushing into something they are unsure of!

Maybe next year they will get it right.

A couple of people have mentioned the verifying their age process.. I had this last night when i tried to withdraw funds so that night i took a photo of my passport and the next morning when i logged back in i didn't need it because they must have checked me out on electoral register.. so to those who are wondering how they verify their age just wait a bit..
