Topic: 188 Bet, again, a case of money for the club over convenience for fans

[rewood]

Is it just me, or does anyone else find 188 bet useless? This is my latest escapade with them.


I entered this  coupon onto your system on Monday 15 August and it has still not been credited to my account. I received the confirmation e-mail ok and it is just not good enough. This money should have been available to me today in my bank account. LFC fans don't like 188 bet, they want to be able to collect their money in the bookies straight away. Cases such as this do not help your case.

Cheska: Thank you.
 
Cheska: May I please put you on hold for 3-4 minutes to check if we have received your claim and may I ask the amount?
 
Rewood: ok
 
Cheska: May I know the exact amount of your winnings on that date?
 
Rewood: £21.70
 
Cheska: Alright, we have received your claim and its currently being processed by the relative department.
 
Cheska: We are sorry for the delay. But rest assured that we are already working on this.
 
Cheska: Your patience is highly appreciated.
 
Rewood: Well that's really not good enough! I should have had this money in my bank account today
 
Cheska: I am sorry to hear that.
 
Cheska: We are doing our best to have this credited as soon as possible.
 
Rewood: what is the problem and when can i expect this money
 
Cheska: There is no problem on your claim.
 
Cheska: We are just waiting for the department concerned to credit your winnings.
 
Rewood: why can't you simply credit this amount to my account now so i can transfer it out?
 
Cheska: Please be informed that there is a separate department doing this. We will chase them so they can credit the funds as fast as possible.
 
Cheska: We will monitor this from time to time.
 
Cheska: Once again, your patience is highly appreciated

Bookies like your money more than you do, why give it back when they can have you phone up - was it a free call number?

[Greebo62]

You never see a poor bookmaker.

Easy really, don't bet & you won't lose, or have hassles getting them to pay out.  Gambling is a mugs game.  The entire system is designed to relieve you of your hard earned wonga, and put it into the pocket of some slime dweller who hasn't earned it!!  simples.

 it was just one of those live chat ones.  Sorry, i should have said, this bet was in the ground last week, first goal scoror for Suárez. I just like to bet at the game and think that again this deal with 188 bet has probably made a lot of money for LFC, but is a pain in the arse for fans.

Nothing wrong with the odd small bet, first goal scorer always adds to the game but I tend to use other bookies on my phone than at the ground.

Ive never had any problem with them and have claimed on about 10 winning coupons from the match. Also transferred money out of my 188 account numerous times as use that for my online betting.

Ive had online accounts with numerous companies and they have all taken roughly the same to process the money out, and none do it especially quick.

[Wingman]

Cash is king ... it's the principle of it ... etc etc ... but seriously, a thread about it over £21.70?


Don't use them anymore then .... and stop whinging about it like a fanny

[OohCampione]

Not had any problems with them and have always picked up my winnings from the match.

My only gripe would be that they are far shorter prices at the match than elsewhere.

Was the same when it was Ladbrokes too.

Use Stan James, never had a problem with them.

I don't think you can disagree with his principle and his facts. Aside from the odd punter his statement is pretty much factually accurate.
