Matched Betting

Did the first 2 offers on the free sign up on Profit Accumulator website and made about £35 and used £23 of that to pay for a platinum membership for a month.

Tomorrow will end my first week and I'll be up around £100 which is not bad as I'm still learning.

Been reading up a bit about accounts getting restricted and will start making some mug bets like £2 accys on the football or betting a fiver on a favourite horse and laying it on an exchange. I generally tend to back/lay horses so it's almost always the lay that makes the money so the bookies are probably glad of my business.

Cheers for putting me on to this Billy. Read over the guy Jamie's blog you linked to (anyone thinking about giving this a go should read it - pretty much explains everything). That's me just over a week in as a platinum member and am up about £450 already, not a kick in the arse off paying for christmas off it :)

Going to get clued up on all the reloads for the new year as after reading the thread in the private members forum about how much all the members made last month from reloads. You read that thread Billy? I couldn't believe what I was seeing, loads of them doing £2,000+ and some boys doing £3,000+! They're obviously putting a few hours a day in to it for that sort of return but I've no problem with that at all for that sort of tax free wedge.

Had a look into this earlier today, already had a coral account but done the betfred deal, waiting on the Middlesbrough game tomorrow on that one.

Bought the platinum one and think I should be £49 in profit of betway if my calculations are right in just two bets but what do you do when you've ran out of accounts to open?

Apparently there's over 100 bookies, not including casinos. There will always be at least a few offering up free bets and deals at any given time.

I'm in a fortunate position to have a few hundred quid stashed away in a separate account that I can use as a basis for this. I'm definitely going to give it a bash for a month and see what it yields.

Will be difficult having money floating here there and everywhere and as most of us are aware, winnings being paid into the bank certainly slow proceedings down so I will be keeping a tight rein on incoming and outgoing amounts.

My first match is on Notts Co as a qualifying bet with Coral tomorrow and matched lay off for a loss of 7p and my £20 free bet is on the Malaga match, layed against on BetFair with a liability of £51 and smash. Either outcome returns £14.89 clear profit.

I'll sign up for bet Fred tomorrow and pick wisely in 48 hrs when that free bet is credited to the account. It seems the more you can afford to put out as potential liability, the greater your profit amounts, so I could feasibly get off to a decent start before trying it out for a month on platinum.

I dare say there will be a lot of paperwork involved in tracking how much is sitting in what account at what point a while down the line.

Once you've ran out of accounts to open you just concentrate on the reload offers. I'll be getting right in to them properly in the new year myself as I'll have completed most of the sign up offers by the end of the year I reckon.

From what I've been reading from the other members in the private forum, there is plenty to be made every month from the reloads. Some guys doing £2k and £3k+ a month from them. I'll be delighted with anything over 5 or 600 quid a month from them to be fair, don't think that will be difficult to achieve.

I'm going to work through them and see how far I get.

Done the sky bet one this morning. £50 on Real Madrid @ 1.67 then laying them at 1.68 with liability of £34.84 so -£0.80. Free bet on Stevenage @5 and laying them @ 5 with a liability of £161.40 so just under £39 profit guaranteed.

No problem at all glad you're making cash. I've been doing it 2 weeks now and am up about £250 r. just started the advanced offers but still have the 2 exchange offers and bet 365 ones to do from beginner section.

Haven't looked into reloads yet but read about sums of money getting made. Been spending bit of time reading up about mug bets/keeping accounts healthy and started mugging already although you apparently don't have to until you're doing reload offers.

There's loads of spreadsheets on the forums to keep track of cash flow. I'm using one just now.

I nearly lost £50 doing the Bet 365 channel 4/1 offer. I backed and layed a horse which won the 3.00 at Cheltenham on Saturday which entitled me to a free bet on the 3.35. I placed my £50 which lost but the £50 wasn't refunded. I went on live help to find out what the story was. After checking my account, it was explained to me that I was not eligible as I had cashed out my original bet on the 3.00. What I had done was cash out my bet after it had won for full value to get the money into my account quicker. I explained this and was refunded the £50 as a gesture of goodwill. An example of how careful you need to be with the terms and conditions

I've gone £20 on Chelsea tonight and layed it off on BetFair to qualify for free in play tenner for zero loss.

Will look at in play markets at half time and lay if off for a gain of about £8. Doesn't seem much but will build up over time I suppose. Might even just pop the free tenner on a mug bet for zero loss given its only a reload offer and will be repeating itself all month. As I've said I need to get my head around the fact that money is spending a lot of time floating about until I get the pot built up.

Load of my mates have skrill accounts to minimise money going to/from bank and get plenty of bonuses off them too. Seems a good idea but not suitable for me.

Yeah, I'll have a look once I'm fit and able to fully commit to it.

I did mug my free tenner on 2-1 Leicester at HT. So alls well that ends well ;)

It's a lot more maintenance work than it seems. You should really be placing several 'mug' bets and laying them for a few pence loss every week it seems.

I've read a few folk saying now that account maintenance takes more time than reload offers and the likes.

This. Someone I know has multiple accounts for each bookie and dedicates a lot of time to mug-betting, occasional roulette spins etc to keep all his accounts. He's full-time and works a good 10 hours a day.

Personally I prefer to learn a skill like trading to make money for less effort but if you can do matched betting sustainably then go for it.
