Betfred con

Hi.
First post from me .
I signed up to Betfred last week .
Made a £30 deposit from our bank card .
Which was accepted.
I placed an £11 football acca bet . Which was accepted.
I tried to log in next day and found out they've closed my account, with no reason given.
I've been on to their support and they won't give a reason . They won't return my deposit without photos of bank card , passport, utility bill.
They didn't ask for any of this when I deposited my money.
It seems crazy to me .
Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Cheers

You need to read their T&Cs - it is shoddy but it’s standard procedure from this crowd and probably most of the others.

I know where Fred lives if you want to go knocking on doors :)

Was the £11 football acca successful ?
Have you any "previous" with any of the other schmooks...i mean books ?
What are the customer support actually saying when you contact them - are they saying they know the reason for closure or they don't know ?

Ignore the shysters posing as bookmakers and use Betfair or some other exchange. The days of taking on these glorified accountants are over, sadly. Take a trip to the racecourse and see the sanitised betting ring. It would bring McCririck and all of the other colourful racing old timers to tears.
