Looking on PA and a Facebook MB group I am in it seems there was a mass gubbing.
Oh well! Onwards and upwards

I'm unable to enter the sky bet club had no e mail about it and the first I knew was when I tried to enrol again as I'd missed a couple of weeks!! Sky's not one I use regular as their odds are shocking and I wasn't worried about the £5 a week, not tried any promos lately so I think it will be just a couple of mug bets every now and then for a while!!

I got gubbed by Skybet yesterday as well - seems to be just on the sports side, no mention of the casino or Vegas on my email.

Do they ever have any offers (apart from the £10 sign-up) - they don't seem to ever come up on the offer lists?

Basically 1 step forward and 4 steps back for me consistently.

Don't know but they have screwed me (and others on PA it seems) over by somehow vanishing away a winning bet :mad: :mad: :mad:

That is definitely bad :mad: Hope it does eventually get sorted out

Yeah same for me.

If I include the subs to PA i'm -£8.56 on my MB for January

Vast majority of my efforts have been in Accas (doing the refund method), I've had some refunds but they haven't covered my losses.

I know Jon will be screaming at me here but I think the lock-in method would have worked better...

This is the first month I've been in the red (in-month) in about 18 months of MB. Noting a general slump too.

I'm considering taking a break from MB and moving my efforts to Affiliate Marketing - I may just need a break, have a holiday booked in Feb so that will do me good too.

If it wasn't for payouts from SwagBucks, OnePoll, and the phonelottery thingy (all of which have taken negligible time over the past couple of years) my Online Money Making this month would be quite depressing.

Still smiling though :)

Just explain to me again with threads on the PA forum that hand hold you through making either £300 a month part time or £1000 a month you are at -£8.56 for the month of Jan...

::)

- Not hitting any (or very few...) acca/horse refunds so you just absorb the qualifying losses - even "mere pennies" add up.
- As above, for the specific events that need to happen for football refunds.
- Total of all qualifying losses taken from mug bets.
- Not having the time to put into it, maybe just an hour on a Saturday morning etc.
- Making losses on casino offers; those £10 or £20 punts on offers add up if variance isn't on your side. We often see people comment that they're £40-£50+ down from offers that involve doing x amount of spins for x amount of free spins.
- Not having done the sign-ups for all the bookies therefore not being able to do those particular reload offers.
- Being gubbed for particular bookies therefore not being able to do those particular reload offers.
- Making a mistake and incurring a loss.
- Not being able to follow these threads on PA for multiple reasons; gubbed/restricted on half of the bookies they list offers for, unable to do the daily bets due to being at work or for fear of being gubbed, not gaining any profit from the casino offers.
- At the end of the month you minus your subscription fees for whatever service you use.

Bad months happen. If you're unlucky and manage to incur a handful of those mentioned above then the profits can dwindle. SHRUG.

[member=2116]MuckleMaker[/member] At least next week we're in February and you can start again afresh! A little break might do you good though, like you said. Getting into a slump is really demotivating, I know :( hope you're feeling more energised about it soon!

Yes just what we don't need!
Do Cheltenham at the risk of losing the Accounts you have left. ;)
Can't even arb otherwise the amount you can bet just gets restricted to pennies.

Looking at going back to PA for a try. Is the Match Catcher the Acca tool and is it extra, website not hugely clear! Do you have to have the main PA one or can you just have the Acca bit? Is it worth having both?

I have regular PA + Match Catcher + Acca Catcher for £14.99

you can 'I think' if you just want the extras you can go to apps.profitaccumulator.co.uk and get them there..

[member=1]Jon[/member] is right (although the pricing he quotes is his 'loyalty' pricing - Match/Acca Catcher is a £15.99 a month sub for us 'normals'). I just have the Match/Acca Catchers at PA, and my main account at OddsMonkey. You do at least need the free account on PA to be able to save your accas (I found I could be logged into the Acca Catcher and it wouldn't save my Accas unless I was also logged into the PA free account).

Thanks [member=2431]Uhhhhh[/member] your list sums up my thinking sufficiently enough.

Just out of interest [member=1]Jon[/member] do you follow the "£300 a month part time" or "£1000 a month" threads 100% - I know I don't, but wondered if you do?

I follow the £1000 a month one as much as I can just because everything is spoon fed to you by James on the forum. Links / Value / What to do etc.. Click Click done!

You really realise that all the small amounts do add up and when you grab an easy £30-£40 a day that's an easy £900 odd a month

Outside of that I obviously do Horseys on Saturday and around 5 or 7 accas a week. I also do 1 or 2 Lock in Accas to cover any of my qualifying losses on my normal accas

hope all that makes sense lol
