Question LadBrokes

At the risk of being flamed...why can't I find Ladbrokes in the SBR listing of bookmakers????

I searched these forums and found heaps of posts that include Ladbrokes in the discussion, so it is clearly a well known book, yet I can't see it in the SBR lists anywhere.

Am I missing it, or hasn't it been added? If it hasn't...why the heck not?

It's rated A+ by SBR.

That is a puzzler. I'm not sure why it's not in the Ratings Guide right now. You are correct: Ladbrokes is a top bookie (particularly compared to some of the riff raff on there) and should definitely be listed.

I would have guessed they would be rated right in the "A" range.

I can't help but think something unusual has happened and there is an explanation. I'll check into it.

It's rated but mysteriously missing from the rating guide list. If you do a search it says that it's rated A+ (see above post).

Yep, I hear ya David. I'm thinking there must have been some little glitch with the Ratings Guide.

Yeah, Playboy (a quasi-member of the Ladbrokes family) is also off the list as well.

Aegist - you might want to have a look at the links in your signature since I'd be amazed if you're allowed to advertise other sites here. However, if you can then I'm open to any sponsorship offers.

Damn Aegist, I wish you had given me something to flame but all you did was make a good point. Thanks for the heads-up and welcome to the forum.

LOL. Sorry for the disappointment mudcat

It seemed like a really stupid question... like, surely Ladbrokes would be somewhere.... I was certain I missed something really obvious.

Quite glad I didn't....

I've been extremely profitable on their site and I don't seem to have a limit. I had a $1200+ wager on with them a week or so ago and it was accepted (and won).
