FULL REVIEW - Victor Chandler (8.36)

Victor Chandler is a leader in the online sports betting industry. They offer a large range of odds on a wide variety of sporting events and leagues throughout Europe, including great coverage on horse racing, greyhounds, golf and football.

While Victor Chandler does have a great selection of international football leagues, their prices do not stand out; they are similar to other bookmakers.

After a site relaunch in May 2009, the website is now clean and well organized; everything is easy to find. Before, it was too cluttered. They've also added a bet slip to the site, which was lacking on the old site.

Customer service at VC is fast and efficient, both by phone and email. Unlike other bookmakers, Victor Chandler offers significantly higher maximum daily withdrawal amounts. Withdrawals are also processed extremely fast.

Victor Chandler has a nice offering of bonuses and promotions, such as money-back specials, special accumulator bonuses and free bets. As of May 2009, VC has doubled its sign-up offer, from a £50 to a £100 free bet.

Victor Chandler has something for everyone: a great casino, exceptional poker room, and extensive sports book, all backed by a company which has been in the industry for more than 60 years.

Avoid like the plague-

Worst bookie in the history of bookies. Asked to empty my account, they sent the old 'send images of the card" etc. which I did, 3 times. Kept on saying they couldn't see the pictures clearly. Then, without warning, closed my account and took my money. Emailed them to ask what was going on, and nothing. Going to go to court to get my money back if they don't respond in the next 24 hours. When you got to go to court to get your money back then you know its a bookie to avoid. This was on a losing account by the way.

tossers-

this review is more on the actual bookmaker rather than the site, the site may be just as good as any other but the business is run by complete tossers, i have had 2 accounts closed and now a new one restricted, (yes i use alias) the restriction this time is we cannot offer you BOG,,, absolute fuc**ng joke of a bookmaker. I had my first account for 3 years and never once was offered a free bet, the best bookie by far is paddy power, over the years i have had 1000 pounds in free bets from them, and yes i win money too, fu** chandler and fu** the horse he rode in on.

£100 free bets!-

Sadly I never read this site before parting with my 100, I got the free bet for my 10 single, still haven't recieved my 20 double and was told I would not recieve my 30 treble or 40 quad because all the selections in these bets weren't over evens. On the terms and conditions it says 'a selection is one leg of multiple bet' and I had one leg over evens on both. Complete and utter blatant false advertising! Please do not open an account with these gangsters!

Closed account-

Probably the worst online bookmaker ever. Had an account for 5 years or so, never made much money and only placed small bets. Received two e-mails inviting me to claim free-bets up to the value of £25 and £50 respectively by placing matched amounts on horse racing and a football match. Did this , lost on my original bets and then lost my two 'free-bets'. Next day received another e-mail stating that a senior trader had closed my account! Absolute joke of a site - senior traders my a**e!! Don't use this site!!!

Great site - I am treated like a king-

I am not really a very good gambler since any money I win I always seem to give back. However Victor Chandler is a really great site. They treat me really well and really like having me as a customer. I enjoy being on their site so much but I may have to borrow some more cash to keep paying for my hobby. I'm sure VC will allow me to keep betting. I dont understand these comments about being shut down - it certainly never happened to me. 10/10 it's a wonderful betting experience - I'm sure I'll get luckier soon.

Best website I've been on for betting-

Ive been with the website for about a year and a half now and i can't describe enough how amazing it has been to me, it is very simple and easy to use all the time, you can always bet on mostly any market you want. Ive never experienced any problems with deposited and withdrawals do take 2-4 days i think but thats exactly the same as any bookmakers online. They are very good with free bets and i am frequently receiving free bets and they really do take care of there customers. There 24/7 chat is very helpful and kind and always want to do the best they can for you. Anyone reading this website i would strongly recommend this website, very good. I am saying this about a site that i have never really won anything big on aswell!

Avoid. Bunch of cheats-

Deposited funds and placed bet for £500.00 Was then flagged that only £25.00 was maximum bet as was a 'manager special' I was told after phoning them. No mention of this on their site at all. I therefore withdrew my funds back to my bank and was advised this would take 6 days!!! Total rip off and lying to get you to deposit monies, which they then can keep for days and earn interest on. Disgusting.

closed account-

when i started betting with victor chandler, i won a few bets and i lost a few bets, but when i started winning more than i was losing my odds and stakes were restricted and then my account was closed. This is by far the worst betting site i have ever encountered and if you like winning choose a different site, very very poor

The worst-

Lasted 7 bets . All losers . Lost £1150 . They are a joke . Victors dad would turn in his grave having built up one of the best betting firms in the world only for his philandering son to sell most of it to Tabor !

Promotion Bullsh!t-

After signing up with my first ever account with V.C I was waiting for my FREE £25 promotion cash. After me lumping £25 into them in order to receive said promo cash....it never arrived. After several e-mails to ask when i would receive my welcome bonus there response was... Well Marc, you already have an account with us so your not getting it. I said, I haven't an account blah blah, where is my free cash. They say my account matches another account..... similarly and gave me details of this other account. and quote "I.e your name is the same but spelled differently, username is quite the same" now this guys user name was obviously his name and d.o.b, my username is my favorite hobbie.....so explain how someone;s Christian name is 'gardening'??!! So to sum it up, name = not the same, d.o.b= not the same, username = not the same, password = not the same, address = not the same they conned me out of my money, avoid Victor Chandler. True what they say, nothing is free is this world.....

Avoid-

OK for best odds etc., but don't expect an easy time if you want money back from them. Don't accept switch/,maestro so had to deposit with my credit card. Bank then started charging me £3 for a deposit into the account. When I wanted to withdraw some money after a win, they wouldn't/couldn't pay me on the same card. Tried a BACS transfer which went through, then was cancelled later (was never confirmed if it was them or the bank that stopped it). I decided to close the account and had a fight to do so. They insisted on having a copy of my passport and a utility bill/credit card bill, even though they did not ask for either when I opened the account. I sent them a copy of a credit card statement for the card I has used to deposit, then they agreed to close the account. Took their time sending the payment. Would not use again.

Avoid All Victor Chandler Brands-

I manage an online poker portal much like this one and I was recently robbed by the crooks at Victor Chandler. I entered into a relationship with Victor Chandler Poker whereby I would be paid in relation to how many players I brought them. It took a while to get things rolling, writing content and performing SEO. Slowly but surely I began to bring them a number of players. All of a sudden, they disconnected my links without informing me. I contacted them and they responded by telling me that we weren't bringing them enough players so they were discontinuing our business relationship. The bastards also informed me that they would be keeping the money that I rightfully earned bringing them players. Let us not forget that their CEO was recently arrested in Israel for illegally distributing Prepaid Cards. These cards allowed players to access the casino from Israel, where it is illegal. They were also busted for transferring $9 million dollars in cash earned from the fraud without reporting it to the tax authority...real class act. Victor Chandler does not respect their business partners and they do not respect the law; do not expect that they will respect either you or your money. The "face" of the Victor Chandler brands is Victor Chandler himself, a debonair and classy-looking wealthy fellow that evokes feelings of trust and stability. What a farce! Just a bunch of crooks...better off just burning your money and saving yourself the trouble.

no problem-

i have been with vc bet for about a year now and i have had no problems at all with them. i only bet on football and they do the best odds week after week, also if you have a five-fold football accumulator and you are 1 down you get your money back! so i think its very appealing to football gamblers.

VC or WC?-

They closed my account after just 14 £100 bets on horses. I was only £100 up when they decided my account wasn't profitable for them. It makes me wonder how Mr Chandler has the gall to plaster his mugshot on all the advertising and promotional bumf when his company can't seem to run a book properly.

VC is now one of the worst online bookies-

I was shut down earlier this year. My crime was only betting at VC when they had the best price. I don't arb, ever - what's the point of going to all that effort for pennies? I have never read so many bad reviews about a company. It is the same at several other betting sites. This was a great company once - not any more. Are they in serious financial trouble - if they haven't shut you down already maybe it's time to get your money out. Remember Premierbet, Luvbet, Netbetsports etc - all had a strong UK following.
