I use it every day - very useful for my style of betting.

Oddschecker reminds me of Jim Bowen

look what you could've won. (about an hour ago before the price got slashed, but we'll keep the price up anyway just to wind you up)

Mokegibboni -  Can only assume your 'style of betting' is to back horses after odds have been cut

@wiseguy - no - I take the prices about 20 hours before racing (ie. the evening before) when the prices that I manage to get are generally (but not always) higher than the SP. Some bookies restrict the stake amount on my selections, so I then split the bet between 2 (sometimes 3) bookies offering the same or very similar prices. Prices very often halve in value overnight, but sometimes they go out in which case BOG comes into play.

Surprised

I'm shocked.  Somebody actually uses Oddschecker and actually can have a bet with a bookmaker....have I woken up in 2004?

@The Baron - but I have had account restrictions/closures in recent years. Victory Chancer closed my account completely. BOG gone from Paddling Power and UniNobet plus stake limitations on the higher priced selections. Both BFS and SpoilSports restricted me to pennies, so effectively those accounts are now defunct as far as I'm concerned. No multiple bets at prices allowed the evening before apart from 3 bookies.
