Our members have tried and tested many uk bookmakers over the years and here they share with you their honest thoughts. Each time we add a new bookie to OLBG we ask our users to try it out and review it. This personal experience of using betting sites is valuable. We have highlighted some of these real user reviews in the content on this page as we feel that their feedback is really useful in helping you to choose your new betting account.
Every user that leaves a review for a bookmaker since 2002 has been asked to leave comments as to the strong and weak points of the bookie and leave a star rating out of 5 overall.
We encourage both good and bad points of view so long as they are not libellous in any way, or refer specifically to an ongoing dispute, which may in time be resolved.
The top bookmakers will be scored in excess of 4/5 on the ratings and this coming from many hundreds of reviewers we are confident that it is a very good representation of what a new customer may expect upon registering a new account and using the bookie site.
You too are encouraged to leave a review for any bookmaker you have used previously or one that you may join through the pages of OLBG so as to help potential future readers of the bookmaker review pages.
The best bookmaker for you may not be the best for the next person. It will depend much on the sports you like to bet on, if you are looking for the most generous welcome offer, or are looking for great value odds on a day to day basis, or promotions for weekend betting activity.

We have reviewed all the bookmaker reviews submitted to OLBG to try to understand why our members may rate a UK bookmaker highly. These are some of the key reasons.
These are some of the key reasons given by OLBG members for giving low bookmaker review ratings.
Often you may find on the pages here at OLBG bookmakers that you've never heard of. Primarily this will be because they do not spend huge amounts of marketing money on sponsoring Premier league football clubs or undertake huge advertising campaigns. Usually, this means they operate at very low margins, giving better odds to you the customer. Just because you've not previously heard of a bookmaker in Ireland doesn't mean they are not good. In many cases, they are better than those you see all the time.
By the same token, you may find one that doesn't offer any free bet or welcome offer for signing up. Just consider that everything given away has to come from somewhere and that is usually from the odds offered to customers. No Deposit offers usually mean good and competitive betting odds.
You may come across online bookmakers online in Ireland that you've never heard of, in which case you can check the list here of bookmakers in Ireland to see if they have been reviewed and how their welcome offers stack up.
You may also spot some bookmakers here on OLBG for the first time. Firms like Marathon, 10Bet, or perhaps one of the newer ones like MoPlay or Quinnbet.
Rest assured if they appear recommended on OLBG, we have tried and tested and listen to our members and only recommend fully licensed and safe bookmakers to bet with online in Ireland
