My guess is Greek is #1. I'd put Cris and Pinnacle up there.

Greek can do transfers in under a day - kind of like Fidelity

Betfair is the most stable one, they have a stock that trade on the london stock exchange and they hold their money at the Royal Bank of Scotland, the largest financial institution in the world.

If you don't have account at Matchbook, then you throw your money away.

Agreed, but what does that have to do with their financial stability, which is clearly not Top 5?

They always pay and they beat everyone else's lines by a mile, good enough for me.
Bookmaker #1? They call you at home and beg for deposits so I doubt it.
