Does anybody know why Ladbrokes have done this to my account?  I only ever place v small bets, often the night before a race:


"We wish to advise you that we are restructuring our approach to bonuses, concessions, Free Bet refunds and Best Odds Guaranteed.

As a result a number of accounts, including yours, will no longer be eligible for bonuses, concessions, free bet refunds or Best Odds Guaranteed of any kind, effective immediately.

This restriction will be included in all future terms and conditions. All other terms and conditions remain the same and we sincerely look forward to your continued custom at Ladbrokes.

Please note any pending bonuses or concessions attached to your account have also been withdrawn.

Kind regards
The Ladbrokes Team"

After Broyles they are the worst firm out there, the Magic Sigh are nothing but a joke outfit, nicking prices for whatever stake will only lead to the inevitable restrictions with these wasters.

night before punters! seriously there are a million and one arbs and prices way out of line at that time - why would you think they'd want to restrict you??

I agree, betting the night before with BoG does often lead to good value, especially when compared to SP.

But if they aren't happy with punters taking advantage of this then why offer BoG at all?  I have hardly taken them to the cleaners!

I withdrew my £68 and won't be using them again.  I think they'll survive!

Xabis - the bookies either want you if you are a going to be an overall loser or very occasionally if they consider you a good marker. The time you bet with them rules you out of the first category and they probably don't see you as good enough to be a good marker.

Its how they are I'm afraid but if you want your accounts to last betting overnight is a no no.

It's called the "Mugs only policy". All bookmakers use it !

agreed with opinion on here - you cannot back night before horse racing and expect your account to last any time at all

Bets placed the night before don't qualify for BOG anyway (Ladbrokes)

"We regularly review all of our accounts and we will let you know if this changes in the future."  What happened to " the traders decision is final"! Have they gone soft ?
