1 of my accounts have set a limit to all my bets to £1 :lol: Bit of a joke really, it did get limited to £8, but now it's a massive £1! Obviously don't want me betting with them anymore! :( Anyone else been barred or had limits set? I've emailed to complain but I doubt it will get me far.

If you dare to take the best prices or win a few bets, you will get limited. They don't like winners, also each way thieves and arbers.

It's been lifted now cos I rung up and complained, I dunno what it's at now tho as I haven't bet anything large there yet. I'm presuming my bets will be monitored so I'll have to be a good boy from now on :lol: I don't see the problem really tho it's common sense to take the best prices available to you! :?
I never even got an explanation just a 'our traders monitor accounts from time to time and set limits accordingly' blah blah blah!

Fully barred :shock: Wow, I didn't think they could do that I just thought they limited you enough to stop you betting with them, forcing you to bet elsewhere.
Tried Sporting Bet again today was allowed 60p maximum bet :lol: I've withdrew my funds now. I'll be back tho under my girlfriends name :P

There was a mass culling of accounts with VC done last Monday, all the arbers/match betters.

The gambling forum on MSE went in to meltdown. :lol:

No good arguing or appealing with some call centre person in Gibraltar.
