Avoid Racebets. I deposited £100 to my account. When I went to place my bet the odds changed from 6-1 to 4-1. I decided to not go ahead with the bet and withdrew my £100. Racebets then emailed me to say they won't let me withdraw my own money unless I bet the £100 with them !!!
They quote some dodgy rule in their "terms and conditions". I have never encountered this with any other bookmaker and am sure it is not legal. They plague you with emails stating they are the "fresh face" of bookmaking. Well they are definitely fresh and very very dodgy. AVOID.

Opened a betting account with Racebet, deposited £50 and the bet lost. Racebet then give me a £50 free match bet once the first bet was settled.

The free bet lost so I'm down £50 of my own money! I deposit another £50 and try to place a bet and they restricted me to £2.27 for no reason what so ever. I called them and they said its a traders decision so I decided to withdraw my £47.73 remaining, however the mobile APP does NOT have WITHDRAW yes you heard that right NO WITHDRAW and had to spend another hour to eventually get my £47.73

BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS COMPANY I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND AND IN THE PROCESS OF COMPLAINING TO THE GAMBLING COMMISION! AVOID RACEBET

This bookmakers is a SCAM
They ripp off clients using two methods
First is that they do not alow you to see the prices of the bets you have matched in your betting history and almost every payout is cut at the price significantly lower than the price client matched.
For example you match your bet at 1,80 price and later they pay 1.50

Second method the use is simply converting winning bet in to a losing by changing the data. 16.07.2017 i placed bet at Cherles Town horse race 2 on Mr. Jacoby horse nr 4 at price 2.2.for 100 USD. They changed this bet in Charles town race 4 on My City horse nr 7. wich was losing bet.
Of course i didn't placed any bet on this horse and this race.

Somebody should remove this scam out of the market and put them in jail.

Die Seite ist inzwischen viel zu aufwendig, bracht ewig. Der Service war immer gut, sie sind super zu erreichen. Der Haken allerdings wie bei allen Buchmachern außer onextwo: Limitierung sobald man regelmäßig gewinnt. Mt anderen Worten: Hier werden sie geschröpft. Wenn sie nur 2-Euro-Wetten machen, zu empfehlen, für alle ernsthafte Wetter ein kurzes Vergnügen.

I am quite proud to see that Racebets is the 1st bookmaker , over two decades , to realise in advance what an excellent punter i am , and instantly exclude me from all offers . Sadly therefore i will not make my fortune from them on this occasion

CON ARTISTS: Opened an account because of the generous £50 free bet offer, Placed a £50 bet on a fav on English horse racing, Then my limits were cut to ridiculous amounts so i could not place my free bet on any selection. Reported them to the governing body that adjudicates them, That was over a year ago and have heard nothing from them!

Worst bookmaker I have ever used. Staggered that they have a license from the Gambling Comission. They restricted my account before I had even finished registering which I complained about.
They then lifted the restriction until my first bet with them won and at the end of the race sent an email telling me I could only have SP's and that I would only be allowed to bet on what they want me to.
Truly awful bookmaker
AVOID

Shady company, got an email from them stating I could have a 50% deposit bonus for my birthday. Deposited my money and found they had banned me from bonuses. Got that sorted out over live chat to find they had banned my from fixed odds betting. They said I am more than welcome to bet on starting price odds and tote bets. OK fine so I go to place a bet to findo I am stake restricted. Avoid this shady underhanded company.

Hi everyone,
I read the negative comments below and thought it might be worth updating everyone.I am a punter whose stakes are under £100 and I do not have any other connection with RaceBets.
I opened my account about a year ago and can well believe the comments below because, initially, RaceBets simply refused to take my bets claiming that they did not have the capacity to take bets before 10 am even though they had advertised prices! Utterly ridiculous!
HOWEVER, since RaceBets came off Oddschecker.com, they have taken my bets on every occasion and well before 10 am, they have offered either top prices or good prices, they have settled the bets correctly, they have honoured the best odds guarantee and they have processed withdrawals quickly and without requesting any identification documentation.
Something has clearly changed and this company is now well worth your (re) consideration.

I opened an account and made a deposit. Without placing a bet, I emailed within one hour to be advised that I had been restricted to SP bets only. The reason is unclear and I can only guess that I had betfair open in a browser at the same time and they didn't like it.

I had an account with them with which was already verified several years ago. I recently made a deposit after I had moved to a new country and they requested a new proof of address. I sent a utility bill but for some reason they didn't accept it and asked for another one. As I can't provide any other document (nor would I bothered to waste so much time for 20 euros) I asked them to simply give me my deposit back and close my account, but they refuse to do so and say that they will confiscate my money.

All this to scam me 20 crappy euros; you can imagine what they will do with larger deposits.

I went to put a bet on one of the antepost markets at Cheltenham (4m National Hunt on day 1). After depositing my £200, and then trying to place the bet it said please wait. I waited 3 minutes, only for them to say it was too big. Fair enough. Then, as I tried placing £50, THEY CUT THE ODDS INTO 16/1 FROM 20/1 WITHOUT ME EVEN PLACING A BET.
This is such a quiet market at this time of year, and clearly they saw me wanting to take a good bit of early value and trimmed it because I flagged it by wanting a bet. DISGUSTING. At least other bookies offer you a smaller stake.
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THESE GUYS

Saw these listed on oddschecker, I followed the link through and saw a signup offer so decided to give this company a go, I put my details in and as soon as my account was made I received an email to state I couldn't participate in bonuses, why advertise something if you cannot offer it, asked them to close my account and remove my details, cowboy website.

I opened an account, placed 1 bet (which won £75) and immediately received an email from them stating that betting restrictions had been placed on my account, effectively making the account unusable. I have a lot of bookmaker accounts and I am aware that bookmakers do impose certain restrictions on your account but never have I experienced this happening after the placing of just 1 bet. As I have no betting history, the decision to make these restrictions can have no basis whatsoever. I wonder if the same decision would have been made if my bet lost. I would imagine not! If this is how they treat all customers, I'm amazed they are in business. Completely unacceptable.

Tienen la costumbre de eliminar a los clientes que consideran bajas sus ingresos o porque les da la gana o simplemente porque eres de otro pais, en mi caso llevo ingresos netos de más de 300€ en 3 meses y sin más motivos me han echado. Lógicamente viendo otras opiniones está claro que pequeños inversores no les interesan.

NO a Race Bets van en contra de la libertad y son unos clasistas.

Les animo a que se den de baja hay muchas opciones

Joined Racebets had a few losses amounting to £1000 then a couple of lucky wins totalling £1400. They immediately restricted my account ,removed all bonuses and limited my max bet.

I tried to withdraw my winnings and struggled. They wanted every bit of verification that they could out of me and that wasn't enough. Apparently a passport isn't enough of a proof of identity!?

Still no pay back, not even my deposit. Only option left is to open a complaint with the gambling commission.

Avoid at all cost. There's no honour, they only want #MugPunters!

I would also like to add that as far as the website goes. It's not at all intuitive. It's impossible in the mobile version of their website to place any double, accumulator or lucky 15 etc and their odds are not competitive.

as soon as i verified my account was told i was not allowed any bonus even before i had placed a bet also i was told i was not allowed too place fixed odds on the account, these jokers should not have a licence to take bets,. AVOID

Hello, thank you for contacting RaceBets. How can I help you? Can you please provide us with your username?

yes its kyleacc1

We regret to inform you our Traders have restricted all fixed odds bets on your account. You can still take prices at SP, via the SP column as opposed to the fixed odds one, however these bets will also be restricted to smaller stakes, in which case you will be notified via a pop up, as to the stake amount when attempting to place a bet.


As you are currently trying to place bets on fixed odds with your bonus they are not able to be placed


2:42 PM Kyle Smith

Why Is this, seem rather unfair?!


Afterall I have placed 1 bet as per the terms and conditions. I lost that bet. I would not have placed that bet if I was not going to get the free £50 bet


Can you please give any reasons?


2:46 PM Mandy Williams

Unfortunately, our Traders do not share any information as to what lead them to make this decision.However they are well within their rights to do so.I can only apologise for any inconvenience.


However please note you will be able to wager the welcome bonus on bets placed on SP odds.


2:52 PM Kyle Smith

This is not on. You have no grounds to change the terms and conditions of the initial contract. I will be making a complaint to the Malta Gaming Authority.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED DO NOT BET WITH RACEBETS UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR MONEY STOLEN!!!

If you do decide to give them a try, you will for sure find your account restricted (or closed) for no other reason than you were fortunate enough to have a small win or backed horses that were over priced thus beating the SP.

Their verification process is long winded and their payout is slow.

The last two positive reviews on this site (prior to mine) are almost certainly not genuine and probably written by someone associated to Racebets - don't believe a word, just read the negative reviews to get a feeling as to the shower you are dealing with.
