    Sky, is it just one free bet maximum? Or is it say 3x accumulators that meet the requirements you get 3x £5 free bets? I looked at the T&C and can't see anything.

    Yes, it is just one free bet.

    Are asian handicap markets included in this promotion?  I.e. Man Utd AH-1 with Chelsea AH-1.

    Do you just need to place a £5 bet for this to be valid?

    I tried seeing somewhere to "opt in" but couldnt see anythin anywhere

    You'll need to opt-in or "Join" the Free Bet Club first. Go to https://www.skybet.com/free-bets log-in, then "Join Now" then you're good to go!

    wonder if I have done this right anyone want to confirm for me I opted in through the join now and then a put 4 teams on to win qpr/celtic/reading/leeds it said 4 fold accumulator 9.88/1 and I bet £5 have I done this right ?

    also i`m not a betting man apart from poker so expect this bet to lose lol.

    I ended up havin to call them up, i signed in and placed my bet.

    When i called up to double check they said i hadn't opted in!

    They opted me in over the phone and had to place my bet again/ cancel first bet.

    Give them a call bud to double check it, 0800 0724777

    As i posted on twitter earlier this week, very dissapointing promotion. Billed as more generous and exciting than previous promotion, misleading claim. Wont be availing myself of this 'reward', bookies benefit. With no reward, shall be taking most of my betting to either pp or vc as odda generally better and more markets, esp pp. No value now.

    Few winners today. Good start for the punters.

    I make no apologies for bragging too! (don't worry skybet, you'll get it all back inevitably ;))

    Yes Liam, winners still get a £5 freebie, should be with you on Monday I think.

    Remember the freebet you only get to keep the profit on the bet, not the £5 'free stake'.

    wp! Did it in style too, Celtic left it late (I had em too) but Leeds must've been well into injury time!

    Best way to win :D

    In Response to Re: £5 Free Bet Every Week from Sky Bet : Think you are possibly overstating the value difference between Sky Bet and other bookies. They are very competitive and this adds more value for customers. For example, we picked three teams for this opening weekend which are a fraction of odds-on (like the examples people have given above) compared the odds and here's what came out... The teams were QPR, Nottingham Forest and Reading all at home. At Sky Bet, these were currently 5/6, 4/5 and 10/11 respectively which pays 6.29 (so just bigger than 5/1). We looked at around 20 bookies and it was second best value out of these, only beat by one other. FWIW, the highest paid 6.38 and the lowest paid 5.72 with the odds as they are now. Thanks Sky Poker
