I remember they had a great free bet every month on the casino with ridiculously low turnover requirements.

I remember suddenly having about £600 appear in my bank account maybe early 2008 , which was the first i realized they had closed operations.

Yes i think they were taken over but they had to pay the balance back rather than transfer it to the firm from what i recall.

Laid me £5,000 to £50 each way Greece to win Euro 2004.

They actually sent out the We Have Become Concerned About The Nature Of Your Business ... Regret To Inform You ... letter before the Final.

Seems incredible in 2016 that a telephone bookmaker would lay a bet of that size on a standout price. No wonder they disappeared.

Oh bugger.

30 January 2005 was the first day I ever touched a computer. Too late for Euro 2004. Took me way too long to acknowledge that I'd have to learn to use one, and that the days of taking on the opinion of a bookmaker without access to the Betfair tissue were over.

No wonder they laid 100/1. Doesn't explain why they were so eager to close the account over it though.
