Immediately banned with no explanation

• After opening an account with them for the first time I deposited £10 into my account. Within 30 seconds of this I was immediately banned from ALL promotions from their site for no apparent reason.

Demanding emails

• been a customer for over 20 years. They have recently started sending emails that my account is overdue even though I am no where near my credit limit.Have complained before and they just make the excuse of the emails are automatic computer ones. Well maybe get the robot who cant think for themselves to judge each case as an individual.Have got tired of trying to reason with these people so have told them theyll receive a poor review on here every time I receive one of their demanding emails.Im 60+ not 6 years old so am capable of managing my own finances without their interferences.

They Instantly Removed My Welcome Bonus

• made my account with their offer and not even a minute after the account was made they decided that i did not qualify for the promotion and i wont be able to claim any other promotions offered now not to overreact but i literally just made the account what could i of done within that 30 second timeframe for them to decide this guy clearly is a threat to our betting siteoverall waste of time thanks for that

Don’t waste your time opening an…

• Don’t waste your time opening an account. They stop you using the site at random times claiming max stake limit without any justification. Many more betting sites available with a better service.

Scam Bookmaker

• Same as everyone else is saying. Signed up placed my first bet and then they said that they would not honour the welcome offer. Gave no reason apart from telling me that Id done nothing wrong?Here is a copy of the chat that I had with one of their agents:15:19:05) *** Dougal joined the chat ***(15:19:05) Dougal: Hi. I joined the site yesterday and placed my first bet. I have logged back in today expecting to receive the welcome offer free bets but cannot see them anywhere? Could you let me know what is happening please? Thanks Dougal.(15:19:15) Rudi : Hi Dougal(15:19:20) Dougal: Hi(15:19:20) Rudi : Please could you confirm your username or account number?(15:19:57) Dougal: DoJa42 BA6145Z(15:21:41) Rudi : Unfortunately we sent you an email upon creating the account informing you that you would not be eligible for the sign-up offer or any other promotions moving forwards(15:22:22) Rudi : This was a decision taken after a marketing review by our accounts team apologies for any disappointment.(15:22:55) Dougal: Yes I saw that which I didnt understand? But it also stated that you would honour any promotions that I had already started so I was still expecting to receive the welcome offer?(15:23:37) Rudi : The email was sent at 13:33 your bet was placed at 13:36. So you were informed about this prior to placing the bet(15:24:02) Dougal: So was there any reason for this?(15:24:25) Rudi : This would just be a business decision after a review by our marketing team(15:24:39) Dougal: What does that mean? Did I do something wrong?(15:25:58) Rudi : You did not do anything wrong this would just go down as a trading decision. I can not elaborate anymore than that Im afraid.• Sporting Index reserves the right to exercise its sole discretion as to whether or not to open account facilities for any prospective client. Sporting Index reserves the right to amend withdraw or restrict this offer at any time without notice.(15:26:53) Dougal: Seems like a bit of a blag to get people to sign up and then not follow through with the offer? But okay not to worry thanks for your help.(15:28:04) Rudi : Sorry about this Dougal have a good afternoon and thanks for contacting us(15:28:15) Dougal: Could I get you to e-mail me a copy of this chat thread please?(15:28:27) Rudi : Sure I will do this as soon as the chat ends.(15:28:32) Dougal: Great thanks.

False offers

• False offers. Avoid at all costs. Scamming customers in.

They don’t honour the sign up bonus

• They don’t honour the sign up bonus no reason given I met all the criteria but they just took my money and said I am not eligible. I complained and that also fell on deaf ears. Avoid at all cost!

No problems add great service …

• No problems add great service withdrawals into my bank waiting 5 minutes even on Sunday

• They have a confusing website that lets you go in to debt I placed a £10 bet at what I thought was 2.4 odds and it turned in to a negative balance of £230 I called within a minute if the incorrect bet being placed and they say there is nothing they will do and I have to clear the negative balance up. I have a deposit limit of £10 for sporting index and they have told me the deposit limit doesnt apply to spread betting and I need to clear the balance seems like a scam to me and customer services were a joke no empathy or an ounce of decency avoid at all costs

Rubbish

• Dont fall for the promotions you wont get themAbsolute Joke

AVOID AVOID AVOID

• So my husband normally uses sky bet and came across this website ! Unlucky for him he never read this reviews and what he thought was a £20 bet turned into £180 ! Within minutes of not realising why and so confused on what had happened he immediately stopped the bet. Contacted customer service! They were rude and unhelpful and a waste of time and for the privilege of coming across this rip off company we are now at a £180 loss for a bet he didn’t even continue with and should have only cost £20. Website very confusing and misleading I will be notifying watchdog and speaking to my bank .

ZERO STARS IF I COULD

• Awful site service and bonus system. Happy to take your money and then you get zero rewards. Save your money !

Absolutely terrible service and…

• Absolutely terrible service and continually cannot make a deposit ended up going elsewhere. Also live chat staff were rude and really slow and of course no manager to talk to just to make a change AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Also they never give bonuses for loyalty

Scam company

• Scam company. Let you sign up deposit the money and place a bet for a free bet offer then immediately cancel those offers before you can redeem them. Customer service is also rubbish.Plenty of other decent betting websites. This is an absolute shambles.

Payed out all good

• Brill just brill

Absolutely terrible and do not reward…

• Absolutely terrible and do not reward you for loyalty and when you try and discuss it with them they say it is generated by a computer. Let me tell you the computer is broken. So gone elsewhere and Bet 365 have got vem an amazing joining up reward and give you amazing specials and I have had a reward cash bonus both weeks since joining without having to ask. So avoid Sporting Index as they give you nothing and even when you contact them you get nothing AVOID AVOID AVOID

Bet £10 and get £20 in free bets. Not!

• Bet £10 and get £20 in free bets. Sounds great but then once youve deposited the money they e-mail you to say you wont be eligible for any free bet promotions. Sick of these scamming bet sites and not sure how theyre allowed to continue.
