    I do not think SBR has a lot of pull with a monster book like Ladbrokes in the UK

    I could be wrong but they have so much fukkin money and massive amounts of players I doubt they would care

    Good report though!!!

    Maybe... but it is probably embarassing for them and they would certainly have preferred this video not to go up. There is a certain amount of prestige involved if they want to be "the biggest and the best" (not saying that they are)...

    We saw betfair/someone got that youtube video on betfair taken down.... so it kind of looks like betfair cared despite so many saying here that it does not matter to betfair.

    Thanks for the warning anyway. I have used my phone to bet with them before... will not do that again!

    True

    However, if there should happen to be a LB customer using their mobile device, at least this thread makes them aware of major issues with that platform.

    This is solid reporting be done here, something we need more of around here.

    Very interesting. I would like to hear more about this as it develops. I imagine that as mobile betting grows in the US that this problem will be heard of again.

    why is it the odds changed and the phone didn't update it???

    do any games have odds that go from +200 to +150 in 1 minute????

    to me this looks 100% like ladbrokes is just saving $ by paying out less to their winning bettors from mobile bets.

    they sound like a scam book.

    I have used BM's mobile betting -- it is the same as DSI's, and never had a problem with it.
