We have to admit that bet365 are one of the more traditional forms of online bookmakers. They have been in operation since 1974 and they hold a UK based betting license. They operate a huge number of betting offices and as a result; unlike many online betting operations they do have a telephone number; a head office and someone to talk to should you ever need it.
One of the major advantages with bet365 seems to be the variety of sports they offer. They have a great deal to choose from including the not so popular darts. Handball and others. As a result many people recommend them as a num
ber one.
We took a look at Bet365 today to see what is exactly special, and whether or not they are worth the time spent to get an account.
The first thing we took a look at was the online casino room – because we like a bit of a flutter. Sadly we have to admit that while there were a great variety of games, we did not find we had much success. It could have been luck, but sometimes Betting operators like to "bolt-on" more features to their operations, and the casino side of things just may be one of them.
Bet365 Sports-book. We have to admit, that since Betfair launched a few years ago, it has been the buzz of the internet, however as we said in our previous reviews odds are not that much better than mainstream bookmakers. Betting exchanges have their place as well as bookmakers, and Bet365 are one of the giants in the industry. Their website is not the greatest, but it is service you are after, and on that side of things they do deliver. Being established online for well over 10 years, they know what they are doing and their website has a professional look that is not childish or cartoon-like compared to many others.
If you take a look at the Bet365 homepage – you’ll see they have a huge choice of sports. We played with one rule: Keep it simple. We didn’t use exotic bets, and we kept our sport to the horses, and we had absolutely no complaints with Bet365. Bets were executed quickly, and after we had finished playing, so was payout.
Overall we have to admit that Bet365 may not be the greatest thing since the online sports-book was invented, but honestly they are not too bad. Give them a try with a promo they have and what’s the worst that can happen?
All in all – 7/10
Good Luck!
