Can my partner also do MB, I think I've seen that some bookies only allow one account (or was it promo signup) per IP address, obviously most houses will only have one IP address.

However, each time you connect to your ISP you could be assigned a different IP so I don't see how the bookies could keep track of which IPs had taken advantage of an offer.

some bookies all you both to do MBing

Some won't

Trial and error...

Unless you have found a way to upload cash to the bookies, your registered card addresses being the same may be a bit of a giveaway

Good point about house address, but you could legitimately have two or more gamblers per household - particularly as HMO are on the increase.


*edit*
Second question.

So I've made money from my first two bookies, I'll probably upgrade to Platinum on PA now - what will this get me to do next, will it be all sign-up offers, or will it take me straight in to learning about reloads or spins/slots?

I'm sure the answer is "just sign up and see" but I'd like to know what's coming before I do that.

All those will be there, and it is your choice which to do, however it is generally better to do a chunk of the sign-up offers before doing reloads/casino (PA have a specific 'transitioning to reloads' task at the bottom of the sign-up offers page)

Thanks for that. I've been concerned about the reloads part.

I can see free £10 casino bonus on my account, which it says I must wager 10x - how would I make a profit on this?

Just pick a slot and start spinning. If you have ny left after doing £100 worth of spins you keep it

I'd say go with Juice booty as the slot

 

[Xorro]

Thanks both.

That was a learning curve, I made some cash but didn't realise that I'd completed the promotion and carried on spinning, so now I'm down 50p - grrr.

I think I gained about £3.79 before I spent it again. Could've been worse!

 

[Stims]

Just doing my totals for April; approx. £483 profit from MB and related activities. Still got some ACCAS in play etc but that'll go into May's spreadsheet.

It's good to be heading back in the right direction.

 

[katykicker]

Done a couple of offers this weekend, made £71. Not bad for an hour or twos work!

 

[rninja]

Katykicker, which offers did you do this weekend? I had an average weekend here, about 60 quid profit

Good to see you've got your mojo back @Stims after a bit of a downer

 

[RedAlix]

I've lost skybet now. I've given up again as I just don't have the time, I've done a few offers but not making enough to cover the PA fees.

I am hoping that once we move (in a few years time) I can resign up as a new customer with new address/ip/bank details etc.

Mostly just stuck to easy ones from the PA email tbh, nothing spectacular until last night!

Last night I did a Sky Vegas 'VIP' offer or whatever they call it 'exclusive for you' and I made £262! Wager £50 for £20 bonus, 10x. Hit it lucky a couple of times with nice bonuses.

I'm confused about the results of some bets on Coral, below is an example:

Free bet of £5 at 2.37
Sportsbook bet Stake: |3:35 Gowran Park| - |Somehow| |Win or Each Way| @ 11/8 (Live) web -5.00 GBP

I'm expecting £6.85 for the win, but instead get £7.50...
Sportsbook win | web 7.50 GBP

Somehow came first, is the extra cash something to do with "Win or Each Way" as I don't recall selecting e/w.

TIA

@Uhhhhh - Any ideas?

Maybe the above settled at best odds guaranteed of 6/4 instead of 11/8 as the horse might have drifted in the market before the race. Check Sportinglife by googling fast results then searching their site for full results, then sort by date and meeting.
