    • I find the 365 offers are on what i bet on.

      So not being a golf punter, or cycling, nothing here for those. But I get the football and racing ones

        I've found that too, my mate seems to get F1 ones but never racing ones whilst with me its the complete opposite

        • I'm on a bit of a bad tilt at the minute with Sky, bad run of form. But it's grand, the reason I'm bringing it up is, it's strange with what Sky are doing.

          For a few weeks now they are offering me this bet ?30, get ?10 free bets. Now i know fine rightly they are only offering me this due to the fact they are gaining coin from me, and it's a psychological mind set from them to get me to bet more and try get me to think more about the Incentive free ?10 bet.

          Just wanted to know would this be allowed in the future, tieing in with the general thread, with restrictions, affordability checks etc, sky getting away with what they can while they can? I know someone also mentioned Free bets could be scrapped too, maybe it's the likes of these that lure punters in and lose more.

          Now, this "offer" which I use very loosely, is the ?30 has to be on specific markets. Usually 3 random things that I normally wouldn't touch, F1, Greyhounds Derby, Rugby, cricket, then there has been the odd one lured me in, The Open (Golf), a specific horse race, and a football match, but more often the ones I have no interest in.

          Again I know this isn't loyality as they wouldn't be offering this out to someone who was winning off them. Just find it slightly strange what they are doing. Anyone any thoughts on it?

          I had more on this i was going to say, but wsnt ro hear other views before open up a bit more!

          I hope that made sense, in my head it did!

          • Admin feel free to move this into General Thread, probably should have put it there as probably more traffic?

            • For what it's worth Big Buck's , I tend to ignore those type of offers .
              which do spring up often with Coral too ,.
              mainly because i am useless when it comes to sports other than Horse racing.
              Sure , i'll have a bet on an england game , golf major , boxing - big fight. e.t.c.
              But , i just don't do any good on mixed sports betting !. .
              But i do snap up the Odds Boosters for my cheltenham bets. .

                Yeah I wasn't getting lured into the sports I had no interest in or have any knowledge on betting, but I know some gamblers including myself could easily lose discipline and bet on it for the sake of it. Also with depositing more with them recently (losing) they seem to be trying to get me to part way with extra cash giving me these "offers" This is interesting and to an extent to me and i feel it ties in with the affordability checks, can see maybe the other side thinking offers like this lure vulnerable punters in more?

                  That seems a very cynical offer from them, your already on a bad run and they're trying to get you to gamble on sports you have no interest in, bad form indeed.
