Anyone used this firm - seem to push out prices on horses rather randomly.

Yesterday they massively pushed out price on horse (doubled to about 16 from 8 or so), same horse traded 1.2 in running, so not sure why they do that.

automated seems odd given that.

yes i know but the prices will move in and out v quickly

pretty easy to see if books are using automation or actually someone is moving like normal

I've found them okay. Got a winning treble on some minor Scottish cup games where few others had markets. Was worried about getting money back (though was only just over a ton). My debit card had expired so the withdrawal couldn't complete so after a couple of emails I sent them my international banking details and got the money through bank transfer 5 days later.

Only had one other bet since which was a place win on a 37/1 shot at Cheltenham (when BP elsewhere was 33/1's) and had no problem withdrawing that straight away as well.

Saying that they may be giving me the benefit of the doubt as I didn't take advanatge of their free bet offer for some reason. Think I forgot about it.

They are automated linked to betfair for their prices. When they launched they must have got killed as were drifting out as soon as bf did so punters were just putting 2 quid up at big prices, doing the bet on betbright then cancelling. They've adjusted their program quite a bit since then and are way less competitive. More in line with Jennings, Betinternet nowadays. They are pretty quick to restrict and don't support e-wallet deposits. Seem ok for payouts but wouldn't keep a balance there.
