 WEB SITE

Bet365.com has been developed to very high level in last years with many useful changes. Web site layout is set in pleasant soft green colour. Interface is very intuitive and friendly one. Users have fast access to the betting tree in the left side of the page, current live events and different promotions links in the center, and the always-seen bet slip in the right. There is a live-betting link, which loads the console in a separate window. Following a sport's link from the betting menu, users can choose between all currently available events and markets for this sport. There is a drop-down menu for faster access to the different events of a market. Bet365.com offers many helpful features such as stats, bet searh and livescore. The site isn't the fastest for navigation though, this being a result of the many betting markets and options available. Still you will hardly ever experience some traffic problems with bet365's site, even in pick hours. Users can choose their favourite odds format: decimal, fractional or american style. Site is available in 14 languages: English (UK and American), Spanish, German, Italian, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Bulgarian, Greek, Romanian and Chinese. You can select an appropriate currency (27 different worlds currencies are available) and a convenient time zone too.

 COLLARS

You can stake as little as 0.01 unit for a single bet and 0.20 unit per system slip. The maximum stake available for each bet will be displayed on your bet slip.
Bet365 reserves the right to set individual betting limits for every account holder, which is a common practice for nearly all Europen bookmakers unfortunately. Bet365 trading department decision for limiting certain accounts is based on factor as: average size of the wagers placed, events played (small and unknown leagues are considered more dangerous for the bookmaker), arbitrage betting, etc.

 CUSTOMER SUPPORT

Customer support can be contacted through live chat, e-mail, telephone (including call-back service), fax and post. Most recommended method is live chat. There are enough customer service agents available 24/7, so you won't wait long before one of them connects (usually up to 1-2 minutes). They will help you in a professional way to solve any problem with your account. Bet365 is amongst the market leaders in this area.
