Review of Betfred.com

Betfred are another online bookie that come from a betting shop background having opened their first back in 1967 and currently run more than 480 across the UK.

Betfred.com launched in 2004 and are currently ranked as England's fourth biggest bookie and are often regarded as a massively improving competitor to Ladbrokes and William Hill.

Over the years Betfred have also gained a bit of a reputation in the online betting world as the 'Bonus Kings' due to the great free bets and betting bonuses that Betfred offers members.

Betfred also offer a great range of markets to bet on with their UK sports betting markets particularly impressive with only top rated bookies like Ladbrokes comparable.

Some of Betfred's live scores and results sections are also worth a mention due to the amazing level of detail they go into and can really help deciding what bets to place.

odds opener

Even though they focus heavily on UK sports betting markets we've found that Betfred consistently offer decent odds on a wide range of sports, including football, horse racing, greyhounds, rugby, golf, tennis and cricket.

Although online bookies odds can obviously always be better, Betfred's odds are decent enough with only Bet365 and William Hill regularly offering better.

markets opener

Betfred offers extremely good football betting coverage for both the English and Scottish leagues as well as the main European and International fixtures.

They also offer Asian handicap style betting odds football as well as odds on a wide range of markets including: horses, boxing, cricket, greyhounds, golf, American football, rugby, darts, snooker, Gaelic football, bowls, tennis, and ice hockey to name but a few.

website opener

The Betfred website incorporates excellent navigation and offers members a quick and easy bet selection process. Betfred's world famous 'betting bonuses' are easily accessed as are all of the member only sections including deposit and withdrawal options.

Betfred also use 128-bit SSL software throughout their website and utilise Platech for all of their games sections which is one of the more sophisticated providers in our opinion.

service opener

Although not quite as large as some of the best bookies we feature, Betfred's customer service department is easily accessed via email or by simply picking up the phone.

Betfred's staff are all pretty much up to speed with most sports betting and website related issues which usually results in a prompt and friendly service on most matters.

The Betfred website looks pretty slick, is easy to use and showcases all of Betfred's betting offers perfectly and is well worth a look if you're looking to try out a new bookie.

Plus, Betfred have also been the official bookie for Manchester United in the past, which only galvanised our opinion of them being focused on European football and UK based sport.

The odds that accompany Betfred's markets are fairly decent with no one market standing out as better than the others. One of the best aspects of betting at Betfred is the coverage they dedicate to both European football and UK and Irish horse racing.

Betfred's account opening process is pretty straightforward with just a few personal details, including your address, finance preferences and a password usually all that's needed.

Once you've registered simply log in with your username and password, click on the 'My Account' link, then on the 'Deposit' option and you'll be able to fund your account.

Once there's money in your new Betfred online betting account you'll be able to place your first bet and claim the free bet that they currently offer new account holders.
