Theoretically, if the majority of your betting activity were withdrawals to your bank account, would they still have such an issue?

Id say so, its probably yes/no thing for them. Does he gamble: Yes, then its a big mark against.

If your bank statement is marked with deposits/withdrawals from a bookmaker, it will only be viewed one way, a risk, which an underwriter won't like. Banks are (now ) quite risk averse.

Try and keep these transactions off your primary bank statement, using the options suggested above.

Oh, I use paypal pretty much exclusively, but just interested to hear if they would mark a "winner" the same way they would a "loser".

Use a seperate bank account

Not only eliminates the problems outlined but takes any variance in betting outcomes out of your weekly cashflow

This would only work if you dont transfer money from your other accounts into it.

I use the o2 card as you can put cash on with (albeit with surcharge) and you can deposit/ withdraw from/to it and you can use it as an atm card.

They would. It would be a mark against your application for finance, either way.

Re Paypal and Moneybookers, havent used paypal in ages but does not not have on you bank account "paypal (paddypower)"?

There is also a trail to and from Paypal and Moneybookers, we noticed you deposited 500 to your paypal the second week of March and withdrew 500k a week later....

I transferred my bank when I opened the "betting a/c".

It's grown since so only one deposit 3 years ago

I withdraw cash to punt in shops occasionally, always deposut it back in branch to the same gambling a/c. Basically saying I have zero transactions traceable to the betting a/c from my "main" accounts

Thats for this coming Cheltenham, had to have the hand brake on last which was **** timing as I had the most amount of winners I ever had.

Lads does anyone know what the story is with Seaniemac? Same prices as Boyles, same site except different colours and names and I have the same restrictions on my accounts with them, are they the one company

ft9

They are yeah. Got my Boyles statement and it had a free 25 bet showing. The one I got for signing with Seaniemac.

UrbanSea

9 have they restricted you yet, had 25 free bet in my Seanie account, they wouldn't let me have even a quid on a 4/1 shot tomorrow. Rang them up and went on hold while she went to a trader they'll let me have it at SP, I'm assuming that'll be the same with Boyles so

ft9

Yeah I'd imagine it'll be the same deal. Haven't had a bet with em since.

UrbanSea

Quality finish from Dzeko, scary how good City are going forward

Boyles, Seaniemac, apollobet and betmclean. All the same site and risk team. Get restricted with one and you'll get restricted with all. However, since they're 'different bookies' you can freely open an account with the other ones, just punt away until they catch you

Ah lads I was out the other night and some skobie in a Millwall jersey started a fight with me I dared him to throw and punch and see if he could stay on his feet for 2 seconds after. Then I see him second guess himself and tells me he is from Tallaght, I said I couldnt give a **** where you are from if you want a fight you can throw the first punch and spend a month in the hospital nearest Tallaght.

Funnily enough the Millwall bottler was too scared to throw a punch. Why are scumbags all the same if you put it up to them they back down unless there are three or more of them and you are on your own.

Bloody Millwall scum.

Scumbags are Cowards at their best. If they had brains they'd be dangerous.

Alternate nights.

So Thursday - Saturday or Friday - Sunday ?

With school on a Monday I usually go for Thursday - Saturday.

One of my visits to Ireland taught me that Thursday was a fantastic night for student pussy. Can I say pussy ? Or is it p*ssy ?

UrbanSea

100% out saturday but I've work in the morning but could get through it since it's Friday. The walk to the offie is a killer though

Goldcupfav

Can someone confirm how many total corners were in the Villareal match tonight ??

MyStubbleItches

Stag weekend sorted. Kenmare on Gold Cup Friday, degenerate drinking and gambling. Straight to the pub next day for final day of six nations culminating in Ireland v France.

Couldn't ask for a sweeter weekend.
