Then 'lost' is the option you should choose - you will know this is correct as there will be a little message in red saying you should stop laying. Always a bit of a pain for the first leg to lose as your QL is now locked in and there is no chance of reducing it as the other legs were likely to change in your favour. You do now need all the other legs to win to get the free bet so you do need to keep an eye on them.
Thanks, yeah that is what i thought and i did mark it as L and it did indeed tell me to stop, just wanted to be certain before next leg today

Think I’ve been busy with school hols/being away with rubbish reception etc. I’ve not had a sky horse refund for a while. Gubbed by BFSB! Need to just get on with some regular accas. If I’m at £350 per month MBing I’m happy. June/July were both £500+ so averaging out ok, but just need to crank it up a bit!
Hi, @Lizziew24 :)
What sort of stuff are you doing for £300-£400 a month, I definitely need some pointers! I still haven't got into acca's yet :( don't want to do sequential in case I forget/miss any legs and also read that if the odds go too far out you can lose money and I think the lay all at start is not very good because of minimum odds or something (been a while since I researched it all).

Do you just do acca's for the Free Bet if one leg loses offers, so that essentially it is the same as a normal Qualifying Bet ie. the acca is the Qualifying Loss for the Free Bet?

I'm gubbed with Sky, Lad, Coral, Betway, Unibet :(

@mabozza, Hi, think I messaged you on OM the other day to see if it was YOU, ha ha! (2nd being a clue).

Yes, the W or L, win or Lose in the Acca Matcher refers to the bet at the Bookie winning/losing.

Hi @Knopfler i do some regular offers which are the sky horse refunds, and I do the Unibet, 10Bet inplay football bet 5x£10 for free £10. Coral bet and get for £5. William hill boosts at 12pm each day on the horses, although not every day;) I have PA set on alert to let me know of boost offers. Often they are only £2 profit at a time but it adds up. William hill are doing a scratch card each day in sept, which offers the odd £10 free here and there. Today redsbet have got an offer on for deposit £100 get free £60 once £100 worth of bets are settled (it’s invite only mind). I just scour the sites/PA for what I can find. I haven’t done any accas yet this season, but the ones I used to do were the acca Insurance where you get your stake back if one leg lets you down. Having said that, I’ve forgotten to lay some legs on the odd occasion! Have no luck on the 2up offers. During the World Cup bet365 was my friend with the £50 free bets! I try to average £10 per day in some way or another!!

was that from a 0.20 spin ?
Technically yes, but it was part of wagering £100 to get free spins.... since then i have won £130 on one spin in a slot and on 4 other bookies won about £70 each on various slot offers... Just checked my balance and am £833 better off than when i got up this morning... really should stick a £1 on a lottery ticket LOL

So its not normal then? Wasnt sure if this was an acca thing, seems very odd eh? I think i will leave the acca to complete and see what happens... am almost 99.9 certain i never put £100 on it (Balance on Lads hasnt been above £150 and still have £104 at the moment)

This looks all wrong to me. You need to check exactly what bets you have made. Like you say you can't have a £100 stake if you still have a £100 balance from £150.

Can anyone help please? I’ve had a beer with Sunday tea and can’t think straight.
I thought I’d placed a £10 in play bet on arsenal game to be a draw. And I obvs also layed it. But when I went back to the bookie I had a message to say my bet hadn’t been placed, by which time arsenal had won. Am I up via the exchange??
