Bet365 blocking/locking bets

Wed Dec 04, 2024 3:48 pm

Hey guys! I have experienced the following problem in Bet365 for the past month:

Sometimes when I try to place a bet on a certain match, Bet365 does not allow me to do that even though the prediction or the whole market is active.

The prediction becomes available for placing either after 5-10 minutes or when the line/odds change to worse.

This problem is new and I don't know if Bet365 are testing something with it or not.

Before this problem occurs, there was a similar problem but at least I could place €10 and if I bet the prediction multiple times with €10, I was still happy with this, because maybe the limit of the certain prediction was low but now it seems that some bets are like frozen even though they are not blocked or unavailable, Bet365 just doesn't allow you to bet them at all in the first 5-10 minutes or unless the line/odds change.

Have you experienced this problem or do you have any information if Bet365 are testing something?

I will be happy to hear your opinion :)

Hello there! I have experienced same problem in the last 2 months as well on some picks. It seems that Bet365 only blocks the bet you want to place when many people want to bet it at the same time. Unfortunately, I don't have info if it will be fixed as well.

They do not have only a max bet limit per account. They have a max bet limit per event betting line too, globally.

Seems to me like their response to recent odds monkey value betting services.
