      I mean having beat the Bumper winner it already reads well so would be surprised if it was because Fakiera won today being a second season novice who had already ran well in races last season that it's urged you to go in again.

      • Anyone else having an issue with WH not giving them the free bets? Usually every week they have bet 20 / 50/ 100 etc and they match it - same today. The last 3 times they have never credited the free bet to me.
        Had to get onto support each time to which they told me there is a known 'technical issue for some customers' but basically unless you tell support your due the free matched bet you won't get it.

        Just one to watch out for if using them that your getting your free bets.

        • I hate to say it, but I wouldn't be surprised if you get "THE" email in the next week or two...... saying that you are no longer eligible for Free Bets etc...

          They are more than happy to give them away... until you start using them wisely!

            I have no idea how Hills work, 6 weeks ago they were giving me a free ?100 bet on football which I put on a season long bet, that was a Friday, on the Saturday I won a few quid on horses and they restricted my acc to pretty much nothing, so it’s impossible to know when a review will end you...

              Yeah 'A known Technical Issue' which has being going on for 3 weeks.... ; the fact its also 'known' but yet still push out the promotions & won't give you the matched free bet until you contact them... they get away with murder the bookies.

              • What annoys be most about Hills is that whilst I've been restricted for some time, their latest offers always pop-up whilst I'm using the App (and I'm logged in - so they know it's me).
                If you click on the offer, they then just remind you that you aren't eligible...

                Why push them in my face in the first place....

                • I had been using the daily scratch card with WH and getting a ?1 or ?2 free bet every few days which I put on bets for the festival but in the last week or so I've had to bet ?5 to get these bets.... today I got the dreaded email that my sports and gaming concessions have been removed. Could only get 80p on St Calvados to win the Betfair Chase
                  Wish I hadn't bothered with the stupid scratch card now!!

                  Is my only option now to ask a friend nicely to open an account for me?

                      Bookmakers push endless concessions at punters but when they use them regularly they (all but) lose their account for years, it’s a big scam.

                      The latest I have lost this week was Paddy Power, seemingly for using the ‘Power Boosts’ offered to me, to bet on antepost bets. (Lost Ladbrokes and William Hill the same way last year)

                      Thankfully I have no bookies offering boosts from anyone allowing them to be used on antepost betting now, so I may be able to keep the remaining accounts open through the NH season.

                      If I have, then I won’t be taking the price boosts anyway.

                      I am not sure how asking a friend to open an account would work anyway (for any bookmakers restricting us)
                      - whose personal details, email and bank card would the account use?

                        • Yeah its a scam alright and I will take heed of this lesson and not use any of these free bet/free spins from other bookmakers in future. Apart from the weekly Sky free bet. I'll even give up the boosts too. What bunch of crooks

                          I was just thinking my friend could open it in their name with their details and money and just I'd just transfer the stake over to them... I need to get working on my speech to persuade them

                          I've been proper sulking today!!

                            It’s a very one-sided relationship that bookmakers have with their clients.
                            Some that have restricted me to under a quid bets, willingly promote casino, power and bingo bets to me, unrestricted, as an alternative.
                            actions of criminality.

                              I’ve put one message up in the National Hunt thread.
                              That's where the Cheltenham November meeting posts will be, as well as spilling in over here.
