No wonder there is so much money bet illegally when the legal bookmakers will not take a bet!!

it is really strange, my first bet with 365 was £100 win on 12/1 winner and because it was my first bet with them they were offering to match your deposit for the same amount up to £100, so I stuck that £100 on as well. Then I merrily bet away for a few years without problem and being a winning account, but I rarely back less than 10/1, so there are plenty of losing runs. Then one day I had a £10 e/w trixie, the first one won at 20/1, the second one won at 16/1 and the third one was 33/1 but got backed down to 5/1 FAV. They offered me something around £16k to cash out and I took it. The third horse came nowhere. That was the beginning of the end. BOG went a week later and the bets were limited soon after that until a few more weeks when I was sent an email saying that my account was restricted to zero.

Algorithms Foyles, probably quite sophisticated and taking into account many aspects of betting activity.

Over the years I have been closed down or restricted by ****, Willian Hill, VC Bet, Betfred, SportingOdds & Betbright. **** & SportingOdds hurt as Betfred used to give me a £50 free bet just in time for Cheltenham and SportingOdds often had free faller bets up to £100.

Recently Betfair blocked me from any Exchange free bets, prompting me to switch to 2% commission. So now they are blocking me from Sportsbook freebets, I'm getting this message "As you have previously been blocked from receiving promotions with Betfair, you are unfortunately blocked from playing" It makes no sense as I was paying 5% commission to get the free bets and hardly turn in a profit with Betfair apart from laying Arsenal not to win tournaments. Clearly they don't lots of small bets and occasional large bets.

The conclusion I've reached is it worth trying to avoid triggering algorithms through obfuscate betting; I do it by dropping in the occasional L15 or losing £50 in the casino. This has allowed me to keep my Bet365 & Skybet accounts going, although Skybet are rubbish prices most of the time. If I get restricted by Bet365 (and I am concerned as they threatened to restrict but didn't follow through and recently I have been in profit four out last five years), I will probably have to go somewhere else.

the great majority of my bets are ew singles always over 10/1 as said fred wont let me play after 2 losing bets ,corals seem to let me have a go which is strange as they gave me a free score bet on opening the account and i put it on one at 20/1 that won at 11/2 thought tatd be it but no they still let me bet tho i dont used them that much i try to spread the bets around ,bills i am deffo losing quite a lot wi them they are my jinx t with them i always seem to lose so dont bet so much unless they are best price . sportsbook an paddy around 50p ew max often 10p ew  and these were often ante post bets many months or weeks away ,so  obviously i dont bother with them .
