Vickers Bet Reviews & Ratings UK 2021

No doubt the voice in the back of your head has stopped asking ‘is Vickers Bet reliable?’ – at least for now – and started asking ‘but, are there any promotions at all?’ Well, on the bright side, Vickers Bet UK does offer two continuous promotions for existing customers – Bet Club and Best Odds Guaranteed on horse racing.

Seeing as there is currently no welcome bonus to speak of, in the first section of our Vickers Bet reviews we will go over the details of the two available promotions existing customers – Bet Club and Best Odds Guaranteed on all UK and Irish horse racing every day between 10am and midnight.

Bet Club offers all members a chance to get a £5 bonus bet every week, you just have to place £30 worth of bets at odds of 2.00 (evens) or greater during each qualifying period. Here are some of the rules and restrictions:

• You need to bet on at least one selection with 2.00+ odds to be considered for the bonus, while making multiple bets with 4+ selections would contribute towards the promotion regardless of selection price.
• Single, each-way and accumulators only!
• All of your bets need to be placed and settled within each qualifying period Monday to Sunday.
• The bonus bet expires after a week.

As for Best Odds Guaranteed on all UK and Irish horse racing between 10am and midnight every day, it does what it says on the tin. And although not technically a bonus offer, it is still a promotion that rewards existing fans for their loyalty. Take a look at some of the terms & conditions:

• This offer only works for bets made on the day of the race.
• You can’t use it on any promotional offer races, including all money back offers and Extra Place races.
• It also doesn’t apply to ante post betting, tote pools, pari-mutuel betting, enhanced accumulators, or any other specials.

Although both of these promotions may seem a little disappointing at first glance, especially as they are the only two available, they do have one major benefit over almost all other standard bonus offers out there: they are continuous, meaning you can use them as many times as you want! What’s better than getting one large bonus that costs a bomb to fulfil the requirements? Getting infinite small bonuses that cost significantly less!

If these promotions from our Vickers Bet ratings aren’t your cup of tea, or if you’re specifically looking for a useful welcome offer, then you might want to take a look at our Karamba review or our Hollywood Bets rating – or both!

But before you give up on Vickers Bet UK, bear in mind that the website was only launched in 2020. So even though there isn’t a promotion aimed towards new customers yet, chances are there will be one in the near future.

You’re back to asking yourself ‘is Vickers Bet reliable?’, aren’t you? Well before we get to easing your mind, next in our Vickers Bet reviews we will discuss the usability, look and feel of both the operator’s desktop site and – if there is one! – its mobile app.

So, how does the site usability fare in our Vickers Bet ratings? When you head over to Vickers Bet UK, your first impression will probably be the simple green and yellow theme, which isn’t exactly eye-catching, but does serve its purpose of making the site look uniform and professional.

Some may feel like the website’s design is somewhat cluttered; for new users, the number of choices available on the homepage might be a little overwhelming. However, once you get used to the format this shouldn’t really be an issue. Vickers Bet also features a handy FAQ section to answer any burning questions you might have before placing your first bet.

If you’re the kind of gambler who, like us, loves to bet on the go, then have both good news and bad news for you. We’ll give you the bad news first: there is currently no Vickers Bet UK mobile app available! Now for the good news: the Vickers Bet website has been optimised for mobile. So you can access the site via the web page in your mobile browser wherever you are – as long as you have an internet connection, of course!

In the next part of our Vickers Bet reviews and Vickers Bet ratings, we will discuss the payment methods available, as well as anything else you need to be aware of before making your first deposit (or if you’ve already jumped the gun on that one, your first withdrawal!) at Vickers Bet UK.

No doubt you’re still wondering ‘is Vickers Bet reliable?’ Well, the way an operator handles payouts can often (but not always) be a clear sign of whether or not they are reputable, as dodgy betting sites are known for low withdrawal limits and long processing times.

The deposit methods listed on the site (found via the ‘FAQs’ link) are Mastercard, Visa, Maestro, Bank Transfer and Cheque. This is by far the least number of available payment methods we’ve ever seen, and that includes online betting sites that are just as new to the industry as Vickers Bet. So if you prefer to use ewallets, prepaid cards or (God forbid) the elusive cryptocurrency, then you’re out of luck.

The processing time of withdrawals will vary depending on the payment method you use. According to Vickers Bet, a withdrawal made to a debit card takes 2-5 working days.

It is our suggestion in these Vickers Bet reviews that you should always take a look at a website’s FAQ section before contacting their customer support, as you should be able to figure out any minor or common problems yourself.

Vickers Bet’s ‘FAQs’ link is at the bottom left of the web page (there are actually two of the same link very close to each other). This FAQ section is far from the most extensive we’ve ever seen, with only 14 frequently asked questions. However, we do expect this to expand as they increase their offerings, and ultimately end up receiving more frequently asked questions from their punters!

If you can’t solve your problem or answer your query yourself, or if you prefer speaking to trained representatives, you will only find one customer support option available to you at Vickers Bet UK: an email address. This is the bare minimum when it comes to customer support, which is a bit disappointing. Most online betting sites also offer a live chat feature, and some even offer a phone service. However, you can also contact Vickers Bet using its Twitter account, which isn’t a common option.

If the operator’s customer service team is unable to help, they have the address and contact details of the Independent Betting Adjudication Service (IBAS) conveniently listed for you right there in their FAQs.

The helpfulness of an operator’s customer support team can also be an indicator of the answer to the question ‘is Vickers Bet secure?’ Vickers Bet may not be up to scratch quite yet, but displaying the details of a third-party adjudicator is definitely a good sign. So even though we have to give average Vickers Bet ratings for their customer service at the present time, we expect things to improve in the near future.

Just as we did in our “Is BetVictor safe?”, “Is Mr Green scam?” and “is Betfair reliable” reviews, it’s time to ask the question of “Is Vickers Bet secure?”. As the main focus of our Vickers Bet reviews, we’ve taken these questions into account as we’ve explored each aspect of the operator. Now it’s time to get to the bottom of this once and for all. So, is Vickers Bet reliable?

The answer isn’t quite as clear-cut as you’d expect. Being such a new operator, there is very little info about this operator – much less than we’ve become accustomed to when reviewing online betting sites. In fact, there aren’t even any other Vickers Bet reviews online yet!

After some research, we discovered that the answer to the question ‘Is Vickers Bet secure?’ is yes. But we know you won’t just take our word for it, so we’ll let you decide for yourself. This is what we found out:

Although the website was only launched in 2020, Vickers Bet UK has been trading in physical locations for over 30 years. Such a well-established fixture in the betting industry is never going to jeopardize its stellar reputation by scamming customers online.

Also, Vickers Bet is licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission. The UKGC is renowned worldwide as one of the ‘Big 4’ when it comes to regulatory rules and licensing standards (along with Malta, Alderney and Gibraltar).

Between the longevity of the Vickers Bet brand and being regulated by a licensing authority that is far beyond reproach, we believe – and I’m sure you’ll agree – that when being asked ‘is Vickers Bet reliable?’ or ‘is Vickers Bet secure?’ the answer is yes. So we’re happy to award top Vickers Bet ratings in this section.

If, for some reason, you’re still not convinced, then you may want to compare this operator with one of its close competitors; we suggest reading our review which answers the question ‘is BetBull reliable?’

Other than the two promotions we mentioned in the first section of these Vickers Bet reviews, there are no other programs that reward existing customers for their loyalty.

Although the promotions currently available are useful for the reasons we’ve already discussed, they are not exactly up to the standard of the usual VIP programs that other online gaming sites offer. The most common VIP programs award you loyalty points for frequent play, with some type of level or tier system that you can progress through as you accumulate points. The higher the level or tier you achieve, the better the perks you receive.

Without this version of a VIP program, we can’t give high Vickers Bet ratings for their loyalty offerings. If you’re looking for extra rewards, check out our review of ‘is BetUK reliable?‘.
