Has anyone experienced this problem like Graham?

I received these emails on Thursday from Graham, and I asked Graham if I could show you the emails as you might have an answer, a theory, some advice or just comment.

Like Graham say’s, it will be interesting to hear the experiences of others.

The first email said...

Just a quick message to ask if you are finding the online bookmakers are now restricting your deposits? I spent over 2k with Coral in March then put 900 in, which I lost in April, tried to deposit again and they said you have reached your deposit limit of £100, which basically gives me no chance to recover the 3k I have lost. This is like theft and punters should not be tolerating this. Do you have any experience of this?

Kind regards

Graham.

Then he wrote…

Yes, no problem.

I have used Betfair for a number of years and have been a fairly high stakes player but they have dropped me to 1k a month unless I send all sorts of documentation, which I am not prepared to do. I feel it's a violation and my history with these companies should be enough on its own. In Ladbrokes and Coral shops I have spent a small fortune over the years and, as I said earlier, they have suddenly set my limit at £100 without warning or negotiation. I put 2 lots of £200 into a new account, Betvictor, then they too stopped me playing until I send documents. To me, this is taking control freakery to a whole new level.

It will be interesting to hear the experiences of others.

Many thanks.

Graham.

Obviously they don’t like something because Graham finished off with…

Just to add.....I have been a VIP customer with Betfair for a long time and would frequently receive decent bonuses and free bets and was often invited to hospitality events at Ascot and Chester, amongst others. Now I am lucky to receive a 50p bonus. I only started opening these online accounts after Betfair reduced my deposit limit but one after the other they have become worse. It's getting to the stage where I won't be able to put a bet on soon, I feel like the world has gone mad...............yet I still see Betfair matching 8 million on top football matches.

Graham.
