    Default A don't use Ladbrokes Thread

    Reasons not to use them even though they are rated A-, not really a rant thread I am just annoyed at Ladbrokes and don't want them to get anymore business. There is no way they should be an A, they are a B- at best. Also there are tons of much better alternatives.

    There are plenty of other good British books, many with much softer lines and not 20 cents of juice on each side - Stanjames, Williamhill

    The said websites and others have much better support, livechat and will not email you 2 days later.

    The other books are not shady and will not turn wagers into losers which are clear pushes.

    I like Ladbrokes.

    What you said gives no reason not to play there.

    Stan James to me is the best of the bunch, average w/d time to moneybookers is 20 mins to 1 hour in my experience, and takes 1k on their lines without a whinge or resulting 5c limit like Lads and Hills

    the reason I don't play there is that they won't let me stake any amount worth visiting them for

    Stan's just as bad as the rest of the euro books in limiting to the extent that they aren't worth maintaining funds at

    I dont maintain funds at any book really, w/d back to MB post settlement, been doing it that way for years, no limit issues at Stan, 365, Coral, Boyles, or Tote. Hills and Lads allow me max €1 and Paddy won't let me do horses anymore but no limits/issues otherwise.

    must waste a lot of time every time you want to place a bet

    no - takes 15 seconds at most to deposit from moneybookers

    ruifgal - I keep no more than 200€ at a book as a balance as a general rule and keep my pool in moneybookers for ease of relocation/use

    Agreed, Hareeba. WillHill isn't much better either, at least in my experience.....

    I must be lucky with 365 Stan and Coral then ... no limit issues and do at least 50+ horse and football/soccer bets amongst them every week consistently, and never leave more than 200-300 balance in (shrug)

    Never been able to get more than $300 on anything at SJ, and usually it's more like $85.53 or $23.34 (seriously how do they come up with such random #'s).

    I think they may limit by Euros. if so, they then move your limits from there to American dollars.

    Sterling actually is their base ... sjbet.at is their Austrian partner and odds there are occasionally identical although sjbet do clip the over/under odds downwards a bit
