Which bookmakers can you trust?

It is extremely rare for punters to experience problems when betting online.

Bookmakers use secure servers when processing clients' information - you can rest assured that sensitive data such as debit/credit card details are safe.

Card numbers are encrypted when travelling over the internet. As such, even if someone were able to monitor traffic between your computer and a bookmaker server, they would not be able to decipher the information.

Bookmakers adhere to the Data Protection Act and upon registration you will be prompted to specify your marketing preference, that is whether or not you would like to be contacted by the organisation and/or third parties with regard to their products or services. Some bookmakers are also regulated by the FSA (Financial Services Authority).

There is a broad choice in terms of bookmakers offering online betting accounts and, commensurate with the competitive nature of the industry, the lion's share of bookmakers offer incentives and sign up bonuses to new clients. Typically, bookmakers will offer to match a clients' first bet with a free bet up to a certain value, usually £25.00.
