Ladbrokes Sports Betting Review 2024

We’ve already mentioned how Ladbrokes proudly displays a range of different promotions on its home page, but just how much value do these offers really add for players? Here, we’ll be taking a look at a few promotions in order to give you an idea of the kind of quality you can expect from the bookmaker. Please bear in mind that we won’t be reviewing every single promotion but rather just putting a select few under the microscope. At the time of writing, there were 10 offers on the promotions page, although some of these were more benefits than bonuses, such as a cash out feature and best odds guaranteed on greyhounds and horse racing.

Additionally, some of the promotions are time-sensitive, for example, if they are related to a specific sporting event. Therefore, don’t be surprised if the promotions listing has changed somewhat by the time you visit the Ladbrokes site. On top of that, we’ll only be including the terms and conditions that we deem to be the most relevant when assessing a promotion’s value. So, for the full details, make sure you visit the site for yourself. Bet £5, Get £20 in Free Bets: This new customer offer lets you get up to £20 in free bets. Simply register an account using the code 20FREE and place a qualifying bet of at least £5 on win or each-way sports wagers with odds of 1/2 or more within 14 days. Your account will then be credited with four £5 free bets, which must be used within seven days. Note that customers depositing funds via Moneybookers, PayPal, Paysafe, Neteller or Skrill will not qualify for this promotion. All in all, this is a generous bonus to kick things off.

Tottenham, Man Utd, Sheffield Utd & Derby All to Win 70/1: Another offer for new customers, this is an example of a time-sensitive promotion from Ladbrokes. After signing up, use the promo code ACCA and deposit a minimum of £5. Place a £1 bet on ‘Tottenham, Man Utd, Sheffield United & Derby to win 70/1’, which can be found in the ‘My offers’ section under the Promo tab. Winnings will be paid in cash based on normal odds, with free bets topping up your account to reflect the enhanced odds.

Give Your Odds a Lift: Add selections to your betslip and use the Odds Boost token to increase the odds on your bets. A minimum of one token will be applied to your account daily and will apply to selected markets only, with only the first £50 of stakes being struck at the boosted price. This is a really great way for Ladbrokes to give their customers a little extra bang for their buck.

Overall, Ladbrokes’ promotions offer real value for customers, with time-sensitive offers adding an extra level of intrigue. It’s exactly what we’d expect from such an established name in the industry. The only thing we’d like to see is a little less padding out of the promotions section but that is only a minor complaint in what is an otherwise excellent offering.

Ladbrokes certainly doesn’t disappoint when it comes to its selection of sports to bet on. They cover an extensive A-Z of sports, from American football to volleyball. These include a huge selection of different leagues. Take football, for instance. Alongside all the English leagues, you can also choose to bet on everything from Spanish to Swedish and Mexican to Macanese divisions, with the bookmaker globe-trotting between leagues. Non-sporting options are available, including movies, politics and TV specials, with e-sports also getting their own dedicated section. When it comes to the Ladbrokes betting selection, we really can’t complain.

If you want to be able to bet on the go, then you’ll be happy to hear that Ladbrokes has a dedicated free mobile app. Including both its sportsbook and casino offerings, this scaled-down version of the main site is available on iTunes and Google Play. It features all the great promotions, as well as in-play and live streaming features. It’s a slick, seamless and all-around superb way to get all the best of Ladbrokes straight to your fingertips.

Most betting sites don’t offer any live streaming at all but then again, Ladbrokes isn’t most betting sites. They have live streaming options on a number of different sports, including a range of football leagues, tennis matches and horse racing events. It truly is a very impressive selection. If that wasn’t enough, you can also fully immerse yourself in a world of virtual sports. That’s because Ladbrokes offers smooth and seamless virtual options on horse racing, greyhounds, football and more. Top marks here.

You can find an informative comparison table of all the various deposit and withdrawal methods at Ladbrokes in their Help section. This is really appreciated, as some betting sites will hide this important information away or lack vital details. Being able to see everything from minimum amounts to processing times at a glimpse is just one example of Ladbrokes’ expert attention to detail.

As a quick overview, you can make deposits at Ladbrokes by credit or debit card, Apple Pay, Skrill, PayPal, Neteller, Paysafecard and, of course, by cash while visiting one of their physical stores. The minimum deposit amount is £5 or equivalent for credit and debit cards, Apple Pay and Paysafecard, while Skrill, PayPal and Neteller have minimum amounts of £10 or equivalent. All of these deposit methods are processed instantly. The same options are available for withdrawals, with a minimum withdrawal amount of £0.01 or equivalent for all methods. Processing times vary between a minimum of six hours for Skrill, PayPal, Neteller and Paysafecard and one to three days for debit or credit cards and Apple Pay. Please be aware that a registered card is required for withdrawals using the latter.

The only thing missing from this table is information on fees, although there are details on these under the individual payment method pages in the Help section. Considering just how great Ladbrokes has been elsewhere on the site, we can only assume this is a design oversight.

A world-class betting site needs a world-class customer support service and Ladbrokes doesn’t disappoint. The Help section is full of FAQs so you can quickly and easily find answers to common queries. And if you can’t find the answer you need then don’t worry, as they also have that all-important live chat feature, which is available 24/7. In our experience, we found them to be friendly, informative and quick to reply.

Alternatively, you can also contact them through Twitter, email or via a free phone number, with dedicated lines for sports, gaming and exchange customers.

We doubt many people will have concerns over Ladbrokes’ reliability. After all, you don’t enjoy decades at the top of your industry without being trustworthy. However, to set your mind at ease, Ladbrokes are licensed and regulated by the British Gambling Commission for customers within Great Britain and the Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner for elsewhere. You can also rest easy that your sensitive data is secure on the site – as they utilise SSL encryption – and that the games you’ll find here are fair. Ladbrokes use a certified and audited Random Number Generator on their casino games, which is regularly checked and tested. They are also dedicated to responsible gaming, with the option to set yourself daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits, alongside links to organisations that can offer support to those concerned about problem gambling.

In addition to their selection of sports promotions, Ladbrokes also offers a number of bonuses for casino players. These include super daily jackpots, daily cash prizes and comp points that can be exchanged for cash. The casino welcome bonus lets you get your hands on a £50 bonus when you sign up and stake £10 on selected games. The wagering requirement is 40x and must be met within 30 days. Although this may not be the most creative or unique of bonuses – and isn’t as good as some of the sports offerings – it’s still nice to see Ladbrokes rewarding their casino players too.

From their huge selection of betting options to the generous promotions and dedicated customer support, Ladbrokes excels in almost every regard. Sure, there are a few minor tweaks that would improve the overall site experience, such as stripping out bonus features from the promotions page and including information on fees within the payment methods table. However, we really are just splitting hairs here.

Overall, Ladbrokes is a site that is truly deserving of its exceptional reputation. No matter whether you want to play on site or on the go, enjoy casino games or wager on sports, virtuals or e-sports, we’re confident you’ll find everything you need here. No betting site is perfect but Ladbrokes is pretty much as close as they come.
