Betting coverage, Odds quality, Live betting, Live streaming
They allow all ways to place bets, Online betting, phone betting, mobile betting and they offer three odds formats, Decimal (European style), Fraction (UK style) and American (US style).
It is true that their Sportsbook odds in major soccer leagues are fantastic. The same occurs for all other sports with some little exceptions. As far as it concerns betting coverage in different markets, we bet that you can find everything, from darts to alpine skiing. Their new live betting console, combined with their excellent live streaming service, is the best available in the industry.
They operate a simple one wallet system, meaning you have the same user name, password and payment method to wager at Sportsbook, casino, games, poker and bingo rooms with the minimum of fuss.
Bet365 pros cons
They do not have big disadvantages. We searched a lot to find a single minor weak point and this is that sometimes in several basketball markets they have medium-big margins, so no need to worry about this.
The advantages in comparison with other bookmakers are many. High limits, large betting offers, great odds at Asian handicaps, amazing live streaming and live betting console, odds in an even match are @1.90 – @1,90, the deposits and withdrawals are free of charge, and that mobile betting is available, are their strongest advantages.
Also, the Bore Draw Money Back promotion is offered for existing and new customers. If you have a pre-match bet on any football match, and if the game finishes 0-0 (in 90 minutes) they will refund all losing bets on these markets: Correct Score, Half-Time/Full-Time or Scorecast bet.
All in all, talking about Bet365 pros cons, it’s really rare to find something negative to their services.
Reliability
This is probably their strongest point. If we compare them with other bookmakers, most of them have licenses in suspicious countries. The company is licensed in England and is working more than 30 years without any problem, any question about their reliability is out of any doubt. Thanks for reading this review, we hope that we covered you.
Overall rating : out of 5.0
