Hey everyone,

I am just now approaching the £125 refund for the each-way bet offer for the Grand National, though, I think I read on a PA email (or something similar) that "if you're lucky enough not to be gubbed" in regard to Bet365.

I was just wondering whether this is true or maybe this is slightly exaggerated? Though, they definitely offer the best offers it appears!

Still got my account with them 3+ years later :)

I have no idea. I was really careful. Deposited more than I needed to. Chose well-known teams. Wasn't greedy about odds and didn't even win! Of all the bookies it was the one I was most careful with as I had to wait until I had built my bankroll up to do it.

If you haven't already I'd do a check for iesnare on your computer and block it if it's there. Strange that they've done that so quick.

How do I do that Ted? I cleared my cookies because it did make me a bit paranoid about potential spywear but I don't know much about it.

I've deleted it and emptied the trash. I guess I'm in for some more gubbings.

Me either, I've never worried about deleting it and still have the majority of my bookies - and the ones I've lost are fairly trigger happy ones so nothing that's jumps out as suspicious. It's quite clear that there is no rhyme or reason (that's obvious to us at least) why they gub.

Well I've withdrawn over £2000 from B365 this year and have had another two winners today. If Vieux Lion Rouge wins at 5.15 then they will probably be smashing my door down and taking my laptop away.

Yes, I am expecting to be gubbed

Yeah I just don't think it make sense at all.

I had a look at the company's website. It may have flagged me up because the mystery shopping makes me look suspicious rather than the matched betting.

Or maybe not. I just feel a bit paranoid. It's not been a good week. My Mum is in hospital. She's 87 and it's not looking good. I just don't need any extra problems right now.

Could someone from the same home address or isp address have already signed up using the offer?

A quick google takes you to iovation the creators of iesnare. Their cookies are used to prevent fraud. The homepage states that they are used by 1500 brands including online gaming, financial institutions and online gambling etc. But, they do say, and reiterate that their cookies do not 'collect a person’s name, date of birth, national identification numbers, nor does it track end user’s legal betting behavior, how many times they have won or lost an online game, or their web browser history'. Interesting that this is what their homepage focuses on. Named brands include Leeds Building Society and Skybet.
