Bet365 Reputation

: 4.9/5

Bet365 have a solid reputation in the industry, due to the strength of their sportsbook product, which includes excellent customer service offered on a 24/7 basis. Having been around for over thirty-five years, we are talking about a trusted brand that treats their millions of customers fairly, thus encouraging loyalty in the process. There a few things that set them apart from the competition, not least the fact that they bet to competitive margins across the wide range of sports for which markets are offered.

Bet365 have also identified the growing trend for live betting and you’ll struggle to find a better In-Play product in the industry. It’s completely user-friendly, has great odds and the range of markets is impressive. Allied to this, their sportsbook also streams thousands of sporting events on their website every year. You can watch football, tennis and a host of other sports completely free of charge.

 

Bet365 Bonuses / Value

: 4.6/5

Bet365 have one of the most generous new customer bonuses, offering a 100% deposit bonus up to £200 (or currency equivalent). To qualify, open an account and you will receive a 10-digit offer code by email. You then need to make a deposit between £10 and £200 and bet365 will match this with a free bet balance, which can be seen quite clearly on your account. To bet with your bonus, you need to play through your initial deposit once, while a withdrawal can be made once you have played through your deposit and bonus three times. You should note that any bets placed containing selections at odds of less than 1/2 (1.50) will not count towards any rollover requirement.

There is plenty of other value to be gleaned, with bet365’s 100% Euro Soccer Bonus proving popular with customers. If you place an accumulator of three or more selections including teams playing in the Champions League, Premier League, Serie A, La Liga and Bundesliga, you will receive a bonus on top of any winnings. It starts at 5% for three teams and goes right up to 100% for fourteen teams.

We should also mention bet365’s Best Odds Guaranteed offer for horse and greyhound racing. They were the first UK bookmaker to do this online and means you can take an early price on your selection and get paid out at SP if it’s bigger.

 

Bet365 $$$ / Security

: 5/5

As you might imagine, bet365 put tremendous emphasis on ensuring that customers can bet safely and securely at the site, no matter where they are in the world. They use the highly-commended Thawte SSL web server certificates to offer secure communications by encrypting all data to and from the site. Secure pages can be verified by the presence of the padlock symbol that is displayed in your browser.

It’s pretty easy to make a deposit or withdrawal at bet365, who devote a large chunk of its ‘Help’ section to illustrating the various methods available. A summary list of all deposit methods in the UK is provided below. Although there are no bonuses available for particular payment methods, bet365 are notorious at paying out customers quickly, so you should expect winnings on a debit card to come back within 48-72 hours.

Bet365 Customer Service

: 4.8/5

As previously mentioned, bet365 have all angles covered when it comes to customer service. The site is available in seventeen different languages and the vast majority (including English) have 24/7 customer support available.

You can contact their friendly and efficient staff using a number of means, including telephone, email and live chat. You can phone on a free number and you’ll nearly always get through to a member of staff without having to wait. The representative that we spoke to was polite and very knowledgeable about the query that we had.

Bet365 Software / Website

: 4.6/5

It’s easy to see why bet365 is the number one choice for so many customers in the United Kingdom and Ireland. There is a great deal to like about the website, starting from the moment it loads up quickly on your browser right through to easily placing your wager with them.

Indeed, bet365 use proprietary software for their sportsbook and their In-Play betting product is clearly the coup de grace in terms of technological development. These guys seem to be the flag-bearer for live betting and streaming events to customers, with the Australian Open and Wimbledon tennis being notable examples.
