bet365 review (UK)
The deepest product in our UK set, with the best-rated app, broad payment options and fast reported withdrawals. We cannot yet measure its prices, and Trustpilot reviews are very poor.

Offers change often and can differ depending on how you reach the site. The bookmaker's own terms apply. How to read an offer
What it does well
bet365 is the product other bookmakers are measured against. Bet Builder+, live streaming, full and partial cash out and early payout offers such as 2 Goals Ahead are all well established, and features like the Tennis Retirement Guarantee and Position Payout on selected racing are rare. Acca Boost runs from 2.5% on doubles to 100% on 20-folds.
Prices
The data feed we use returns very few bet365 prices for UK football, so we do not have enough to measure it. Its rating counts prices as average, so it says nothing about value. Compare the price on each bet yourself.
Payments
The payment list is one of the widest we found, including debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Pay by Bank, Revolut Pay, Trustly and PayPal. A third-party review reports most withdrawals processed in 1 to 4 hours, and up to 24 at busy times. bet365's own help pages refused our checks, so treat these as reported, not published, figures.
Trust
Hillside (UK Sports) ENC holds the betting licence. In April 2024 the Gambling Commission agreed a £582,120 settlement over social responsibility and anti-money laundering failures. The Trustpilot score of 1.3 covers all markets and about 89% of reviews are one star, so it says more about disputes than about the product. It does suggest you should read the terms closely.
