    Default Ladbrokes closed my account

    It seems that serious limiting wasn't enough for them and they decided to shut me down competely

    Dear xxxxxxx,

    We are writing to let you know that we have recently reviewed all of our accounts, with a view to improving the general quality of service we offer customers.

    As you will be aware, until now your account has been heavily restricted and some of the bets that you have wished to place haven’t been accepted.

    As a result of this, we have taken the decision to close the account rather than continue to offer you a restricted service. Any outstanding ante-post bets will be honoured, please contact us when you believe the bet should be settled.

    If you have any funds in your account, please contact our Customer Services team to arrange a withdrawal.

    Yours sincerely,

    Ladbrokes Customer Service Team.

    UK books now close accounts instead of cutting limits.
    this way you can't play at their games,poker and casino.

    it's a nonsense.

    It's a bit surprising tbh - some of those limited in the sportsbook will lose at the others.

    I don't really care about the closure since I placed like 1-2 bets / month.
    There are much better bookies that I use.

    I used to bet high on basketball some time ago, but then they removed this option with a limit.
    Lately, there were only value bets when Ladbrokes was offering the best odds (or sleeping odds) on the market.

    Ladbrokes has the worst odds of all Uk bookies i think.

    If they have closed your account it is a good idea to ask them to remove any personal details they have about you from their system.

    Yesterday I got new personal limits at 888sport. Now I can't place bets with stakes more than a few cents. There's no difference between such limits and closing the account.

    I only placed soccer bets. I have seen a lot of different types of limits but such limits are ridiculous. After 2 weeks I got limited. Since then I had a personal limit of about 1/40 of the normal betting limit. Low, but for the main soccer markets still useful. Now two years later they reduced my limits to 1/8750 of the normal limit.

    Ladbrokes nowadays limits the player immediately after deposit. Preventive.

    Yesterday they reduced my limits to 0 EUR. After one week in which I have lost a lot more than I have won.

    Just got my own '€0 max' :/ I'm a bit lost now since this was an important bookie for me... for those saying there are better ones out there, any hints please? (I suppose you're not talking about Pinnacle, 12bet, SBO.. right?)
    Edit: forgot to mention I use them all for arbing..

    Nothing new, if you are an arber, just move on, there are a lot of books to hit.
