    I got a phone call from Betfair saying that if I bet upto €50, that I will get refunded that amount if I lose, Is this legit, I have not come across it by searching the net.

    Was it 50e for sure? They have a long-standing 30e/25pounds offer going.
    https://promo.betfair.com/sports/uk/betting/seo/?promotionCode=BET234&rfr=3013&sid=10

    Paddy Power do a 50e one though.

    Make sure to read the conditions carefully. Only specific bets qualify and often people assume any old bet works.

    Plus you'll find you need to make a min. 15e deposit on Betfair anyway so that sort of sets the ball rolling if you like a punt (this being the target demographic for these offers I reckon) and you'll need to pay 2e to verify your age etc. Before you know it you are pretty much sucked in. Fine if you are into all this, as I am, but just keep your eyes open. As they say if it sounds too good to be true...

    Yep it is legit. They tend to offer it to customers who have not used the site in a while.

    It's legit all right.
    You can either go for an odds on shot and get the return on it or go for a 10/1 knowing you get your stake back if it loses.
    Paddy Power do a 50e one though
    Don't think they give you the stake back.

    Just wondering do you know on the betfair 30e one, what bets is it limited to? Could i sign up and stick it on any old football match do you know?

    One more thing, is it only 1 bet of €50 or accumulative, like bet 5 here, 10 here, etc up to 50.
