Ladbrokes new 'Odds Boost' feature

Mine was unavailable yesterday during the day but was there last night

Just got a text from Ladbrokes offering me an additional odds boost for today. It didn't say come in spinner

I'd prefer it next Saturday

Ladbrokes aren't very happy with me, they keep texting/emailing me offers but I hardly bet with them. I think they think I owe them something... possibly because I had $100 the win on Prince of Penzance in the cup last spring. They are still hurting it looks like

Does it matter if it's a horse they think will run poorly? You've backed it and you're getting better odds about it. That doesn't add up to a scam.

Maybe it was just me, when I contacted them to use it they said that the message was sent to me by mistake.

I have 9 accounts. 2 I'm not using atm WH& crown

I bet mainly the place. My biggest outlays on gallops place bets. I also bet substantial on in play nrl (half time) and a bit of afl

I look for the best odds. I've found I am using Ladbrokes far less than I was before the boost. I think their odds have become less competitive. I rate their app the easiest and quickest to use

Unibet (not Ubet) used to attract about 2% of my outlays have gone to my highest for win bets. They all off a sudden are betting good odds

B365 by far offer the best place odds on gallops 80% of my pkace betting is in that account also they are also competitive with in play footy bets

For betting on fixed odds just before jump time Betfair are definitely the most competitive but it is tricky with the limits etc

I see they now have Jockey for nearly every horse adding a comment for their mount.

Normally only 1 horse/bet per day 

yes 1 per 24hr period is my understanding.

Surprised it lasted so long!

Not bad I thought so logged in and hey presto they cut my boost by two points. Have since checked a few against my experience of what was "normal" and against their $50 limit boost which always reflected the normal boost available and sure enough they've limited my boost. Pathetic, esp as they are regularly unders in many  markets on horses I'm interested in.

I have 9 accounts. Since they have added odds boost I m certain their odds have become less competitive. At one stage I was betting more with them than anyone. Now my volume of bets with them has dropped to 6th

They have the most efficient AP. You can place a bet quicker with them than you can with anyone else

I like Lab and SB websites but will concentrate on SB from now on. Two things with Lad and Bet365 that annoy me no end - acceptance of partial stake only on what I classify as not particularly big liability bets, and cut off times. 

The odds boost variances have halved in the last week. Has anyone noticed ?

Ladbrokes also has "Enhanced" odds.
