I got a similar email from them [member=2023]fynsgran[/member] but for a £5 free bet.
It was there when I logged in, I placed my bet and now they have sent me an email saying the last email was a mistake and there would be no free bet in my account. Lol, very odd

I also got that (although for the £20 free bet) and the subsequent email cancelling it, and also an email for a risk free £10 one too. Is the £5 you placed still there in your open bets?

Yes [member=4240]jkg-jkg[/member] it is. I also got a mail for a risk free £5. I'm not sure whether to chance my arm on that one

I'm using oddsmonkey and it doesn't let you amend the lay stake unfortunately. I might check the forums to see if anyone has a spreadsheet

I always copy mine into Ultimatcher 4 http://blog.themoneyshed.co.uk/ultimatcher-beginners-guide/ . A bit laborious but it does allow me to make adjustments when needed and does then also keep a record

I've joined Profit Accumulator today, I have to say I'm disappointed that half the matches that popped up were far into the future, well the ones for decent odds anyway.

I also had trouble finding loads of matched on Coral.

I now have to wait until Monday to get my profits, pretty annoying really.

How much do people really make with matched betting on a monthly basis? Is it really possible to make £1k per month in reality or is that people at the very top end who do it none stop?

Waiting until Monday to have made £15 is a bit of a joke tbh, had to put like £60 in Betfair plus the deposit in Coral so it's a big chunk of money out of my account until Monday.

You are looking for matches at crazy o clock based on the time of this post.

Horse racing etc doesn't usually come online with coral until 8am and oddmataching tools can only ever show what data the bookies provide

Are you just trying to bet on U.K. Football because the reason there is a gap until the week of the 14th is because there has been so much football over Christmas they always have a bit of a gap afterwards

It is possible to consistently make £300-£500 a month with less than 1 hour a day. I make a lot more, as do others here. I don't do it non-stop.

You always have to wait for payments, most are faster than they advise. That is the nature of the beast. However, once you build your bankroll up over the next month or two to 1k+ that won't really matter anymore.

[member=920]katykicker[/member] can you help, so I placed my £30 free bet today using the calculator at back odds of 4 and lay odds of 4.3 which states I should get around £20 profit... great

So I have just checked the bet and it won, so I lost the liability of £69.89 but won £135 says odds 4 but underneath says best odds applied selection settled at SP?

Although again this has worked in my favour I feel like I am missing something, not ticking a box?

I thought I was following the rules but now i'm not sure i'm getting it!

Thanks
Emma

[member=2431]Uhhhhh[/member] is really well equipped to explain this to you. When I try and explain things to people I just end up confusing them more with matched betting haha!
