BLUE SQUARE Overview Blue Square are one of the UK's premier online bookmakers who launched in May 1999. They are now owned by the Rank Organisation and the latest company reports claim 800,000 customers. The website has just had a complete overhaul and is now one of the best around being very easy to use with all markets easily found. The odds on the site rarely stand out when it comes to racing and football although they are always “there or thereabouts”. The focus is very much on UK rather than European events. Customer service is round the clock and telephone queries are always handled well. Not so good on emailed queries and I’ve sometimes had to wait a couple of days for responses. Withdrawals are normally completed within two to three days. The site also offers poker, casino, bingo and skill games (titled blackjack). The Mobile betting service has won awards and is very easy to use. Current Sign up offerUp to £80 in free bets. Simply place a bet on any football match and we'll match your bet up to £40.

They also run a "happy hour" where they will offer enhanched odds on an event (usually horses) between 1 and 2 every day. Regular free bet voucher codes are posted in the daily papers around big events and any that we find will be posted here Summary A solid betting site with big company backing, great website. Occasionally a little bit slow to credit winners of competitions (Fair and Square). Anyone who uses the legend that is Sir Geoff Hurst to promote their site is alright by us! My rating: 9/10 |
