Have any of you guys used Sportingbet / Bwin before? What do you think of them?
I’m just asking for as yet undisclosable reasons 
Also looks like today the company that owns Sportingbet - GVC - bought Bwin, so maybe those sites end up getting merged.
I have used both as a customer and have them advertised on my websites/blogs.
Sportingbet is the better of the two. The drawback with bwin is you have to pay withdrawal fees so it’s one thing that I always make known to people I refer to them.
As for merging, I doubt that will happen. At the risk of sounding like a conspiracy theorist, I think there is a reason all these bookmakers are teaming up and it’s not to create one singular brand.
They’ll be merging their operations in some capacity for sure 
but yeah they’ll still have separate websites and store fronts.
Sorry, I didn’t mean they wouldn’t be merging as I know Ladbrokes and Coral have done so already and Betfair & Paddy Power are close to.
I meant they wouldn’t merge into one entity.
Weird I use B’win but not tried to take anything out as yet - how can they charge you to get ya own money out?
That should be illegal - they make enough when you loose as it is out of you! 
No problem with Bwin, think they charge to withdraw, but they will take a bet.
Sportingbet are a disgrace, and limit accounts to pennies if they think you know what you’re doing. (I don’t, so they’re not even good at doing that!)
