chump

I'm thinking of availing of some of the bookies join-up deals and have been checking a few for ease-of-withdrawal, and what exactly the deals are...

Question: does an EW bet count as a "single" bet?
I think the answer is no, but want to confirm...

The problem with a lot of the free bets that you listed are that the stake is not returned as part of the free bet. By far the best free bet is with Victor Chandler www.vcbet.ie , if you make a bet of €40 they will give you another €40 to your account. So you can bet 40 and if it loses then lodge the €40 they give you back to your credit card, meaning you can't lose.

Of other similar free bets, SkyBet give you €15 free if you lodge €10 with no restrictions and Paddy Power lodge €10 to your account when you bet €10.

I've taken advantage of the VCbet bonus before, it's excellent value.

About skybet (or bluesquare), they don't send cheques and those with mastercards have to pay 20euro odd per withdrawal via wire transfer...

Which is a pain...
