Skybet now offering payments back to debit cards in under 2 hours

[ed skull murphy]

Of course it's a good thing, and I believe that the Scandinavian countries were the first to put pressure on the banks to speed up debit card transfers, but I can imagine some mad crazy gamblers backing-and-forthing the same cash many times a day, which might piss some people off.

I remember a guy on the betfair forum who was backing 1.01 shots at £100 a pop and requesting a withdrawal of £1 every time he had a winner, i think his words were something like "it's so easy, it's like 'penny for the guy' for adults", until the inevitable happened, . But the point I'm trying to make is that betfair and his bank had to process each £1 withdrawal, and swallow the associated costs of each transaction.

Fast withdrawals are great; too bad Sky is a rogue group.

only rogue for affiliates, not for players

Phew, I was about to reclassify myself as a crazy gambler; luckily you elaborated - I can sleep easy! Now that's some crazy shit! £1 withdrawals!?!

Never had one problem with them myself... I deposit hundreds a week and find the game play and speed of withdrawals exceptional. Customer service is lacking, but all in all it's my go to..

People on the betfair forum are nuts.
Quick way to lose all your money, I used to lay 1.01 in running (as well as 1.04, 1.07, 1.10) and made quite a bit from it.

"People on the betfair forum are nuts."

Bit of a sweeping generalisation, there, Col, but this bloke was definitely a bit bonkers.

Soon learned his lesson though.

This now seems to have increased to £500 per transaction.
Shame no other casino seems to have implemented it
