1 of my accounts have set a limit to all my bets to £1

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

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

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

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.

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