I've been thinking about doing this for a couple months now, really should start. I'm dropping down to part time after having a baby so would like to make some extra money especially paying £600 a month in nursery fees as well as reducing income.

Thanks Katy!

Gonna give the matched betting a go once I can get a few quid together to start with

Thank you for your encouragement [member=1]Jon[/member] and [member=920]katykicker[/member] I read both your posts on matched betting and feel like I have a better understanding of how it works, so I'm not so nervous about it now. You both did a good job of making it easy to understand.

I do have a couple of questions, if that's ok. I understand having a separate account for matched betting, but does it matter if the account is with the same bank as your main account? I have a spare FlexDirect account that I opened for the high interest rate that's now ended, and I wondered if I could use that rather than have to open a new account.

Also, is there a good amount to start betting with, or does it not really make any difference to your earnings how much you start out with?

Thanks in advance

Hi [member=1238]MintySky[/member] - absolutely you can use the same account, the main reason that people use a separate account is to not have any transactions over than betting ones. It is also worth thinking long term about if you are going to want a mortgage etc. If so then you may want to use a separate bank account for matched betting.

Sorry - hit send too early!

Also, I started with £100, most started with £50-60 here. The more the better as you can work through the beginner offers quicker.

I only started with £50 and haven't ever put anymore money in

Hi MintySky

I'm new to Match betting and it took me ages to pluck up the courage to start, I messed up on the 1st beginners offer on Profit Accumulator just waiting for my free bets with the second one, (Betfred) you really can over read on this and it's best to just do it. I only made a mistake on the 1st beginners offer as my family turned up, I panicked and closed everything down... so if you haven't made your first bets yet my advice would be to ensure you have time, peace and quiet, and don't be afraid to post any questions on here. Good luck

BJ

I didn't really want to use my main current account as I already use that for my business as well as day to day use, and I don't want to make it over-complicated! I just wasn't sure whether using a different account, but at the same bank as my main account, would cause problems for mortgages or other credit-related things. I already have three current accounts (nice interest rates!), and I thought it might be easier to use one of the ones I already have, rather than opening a fourth!

Thank you all for your encouragement, I'm excited to get started now

I've been doing matched betting since the end of September and I've made just over £1,300! I LOVE it - as others have said, it's by far the easiest way to make a lot of money from home, and of course it's tax free!

I started with £100. It is a bit slow in the beginning because you can only do one offer at a time if you don't have the funds, but it's amazing how quickly it builds up!

I'm applying for a mortgage soon so I've just been using PayPal for now to keep it out of my bank statements all together. Most of the beginner offers work with Paypal but most of the bookies in the advanced section don't. I feel like this is limiting my earnings quite a lot at the moment but as you can see, still made a pretty decent profit and I've got most of the signups still to look forward to!

Also, I've just realised that I've finally got enough funds built up to do the Bet 365 offer worth £200 - yessss!! When I started I thought I'd never get there!

Good luck anyone starting out!

I really need to get back into this, I did most of the beginners offers and then ended up withdrawing all my funds as I needed the money but I'd love to start going again and hopefully earn enough to pay off my credit card, it's just trying to work out how much spare money I'll need to start off again

Hi [member=4063]DisneyB[/member] you should be able to start up with £100 maximum. You'd need to give it time to build your pot but much better than waiting months to save a bigger one.

I finally did my first qualifying bet But I think I messed up :-\

I signed up to both bookies via topcashback, and betfair said bet £10 to get the free offer, so I put £10 on my qualifier. But I've looked at it again and it says betfair sportsbook, so does that mean that anything I do on the exchange doesn't count towards it? Have I already managed to mess it up on my first try? :-\

You're using Betfair EXCHANGE alongside the coral offer not Betfair SPORTSBOOK

So you should be fine, just follow the instructions on PA and do what they do in the videos and you'll be fine

I know I'm supposed to use the exchange, but I think the cashback and possibly the free bet on betfair may have been on the sportsbook side. Does that matter? Are we supposed to go after free bets on both sides or only on the bookies side? And how long does it generally take for free bets to credit?

Ok, I'm sorry. I did follow the PA instructions, I just got confused. Just waiting to get my free bet now.

 

[Jon]

You should get the free bet from Coral near enough instantly after you have placed your qualifying bet with them

I'm waiting to get my new PC and then hoping to return to MBing. I will aim a more realistic £300ish each month due to time constraints etc. I still had some beginner offers when I took a break for the 2nd time. It just didn't work for me on a laptop - I know strange but that's me :
