Samcro late switch?

365 are doing the rounds, they have restricted two of my friends in the past 2/3 weeks to pennies, both of which are lifetime losers, neither of whom have had a bet over £50 in their life, and both have held their accs for well over 5 years...

Were they both restricted for the same "offence"?
 
To my mind no-one can consider taking a flyer on something like this because it's so unlikely to happen, that if it did and your bet copped, you're guaranteed to have a flag against your account as someone with info and get restricted/shut down.

Weigh up the pros/cons, you win a grand and lose your account, short term gain but the grand will disappear and you are still an account down....

They'd be able to tell from my betting patterns I am not in the know :highly_amused:

There was no offence GC, both got e-mails on the Monday morning (a week apart) so maybe there's a review team meet early Monday, one would place in excess of 100 bets a week across about a dozen sports, the other just bets horses but rarely for more than £10ew, it's senseless, and of course they're cowards as you can't argue your case.
When I lost my 365 acc I was in the middle of a losing run with them so no idea what their strategy is.

Every chance they have someone monitoring racing forums so would love to hear from them, the scum....
 
Debating a 5U play on this.

At worst I’ve just predeposited some on the day betting funds

But Bet365 by going NRNB so early are encouraging folk take flyers like this without any risk. They probably know that a lot of the refunded money will be recycled rather than withdrawn. I would agree though that if in doubt err on the side of caution because decent accounts are few and far between.

Yes, but should the unthinkable happen they will know it was unthinkable and if you backed it to happen you must know something, so shut down...
 
If they shut me down all they are doing is costing themselves money so their loss!
 
I know it's just part of the game but it's such a shame that we have to think of whether an account will be closed or not when placing bets that we think are good value.
 
They've hung samcro out at 14's
Apples Jade for champion at 25s
and left monalee high for longer than most for JLT.
I've lumped on all three.
If samcro switches, monalee goes JLT and buvuer dair slips on some ice.
I'm expecting to get taken out before the festival even starts.

I have been amazed my 365 account has lasted as long as it has but think it might be on its last legs now. All my accas are referred at the minute.
 
Bet365 are just like the rest Old Vic. I had that account closed after an enforced suspension lasting 6 months. That was for winning £3,500 on small stakes e/w 4 and 5 folds. I do recommend this type of bet for profit. Another forumite ,apologies I cant remember who but he also won using this type of play. It was hard withdrawing funds too.
 
Tried putting £50 and “hit maximum limit for this market”
M1st time ever with bet365
 
Finally took the 14/1 NRNB Samcro. I don't think he will go but if he did he would be very short and the most likely winner.
