Owned by one of the world’s leading entertainment companies, BSKYB, Sky bet is a relative newcomer to the sports betting playground and was previously known as Surrey Sports. Although lacking in experience, the site certainly does not lack any punch with a whole host of features to keep you entertained.
Not only does Sky bet offer the traditional free bet associated with most of the top online bookies, it also offers a number of other promotions its customers can benefit from. These do change from time to time but have included money off a Sky HD box, prize draws, and cash back on certain types of bet.
The site itself offers a number of features to assist you. It operates a sports radio station offering live commentary for all the top horse meetings, dog races and football matches. There are short betting guides, if your betting knowledge is limited, that cover such things as horse racing rules, tricast bets and each way betting. They also have live sports betting allowing you to bet in game.
Skybet’s Free Bet
Unlike some bookmakers, Skybet’s sign up bonus is very straight forward indeed. Simply register a new account, place a bet and Skybet will credit your account with a free bet of the same value up to £50 .
Customer services
Compare Bookies has contacted Sky bet customer services on many occasions and have always been happy with their helpful and courteous manner. Not only do they provide free phone telephone assistance- there is also a live text feature so you can have a chat with someone online. This is handy if you are betting from abroad or if you only have a mobile phone as most networks charge for calling 0800 numbers.
