Ladbrokes Reviews and User Ratings (original) (raw)

Full Ladbrokes Bookmaker Review

Ladbrokes is such a good bookmaker. They cover so much across their product that it doesn’t matter what you’re into, you’ll find it on Ladbrokes. Every possible sport that you can imagine is covered. Of course there is horse racing, football and tennis, but to have fishing, beach volleyball, the GAA and rowing, plus plenty more really displays their commitment to offering something for everybody.

The only downside is that their odds aren’t market-leading, but that’s nit-picking. Their good, without being spectacular, but they make up for it with loads of price boosts, all clearly displayed from the off (as is their cash out options).

There are plenty of deposit/withdrawal options, the sign-up process is probably the most thorough in the entire market (you can’t start betting until you have proved your identity and your address) and the app is great.

Ladbrokes Review Summary

If you like casino and virtual sports, there is that too, but in terms of their sportsbook alone, Ladbrokes remains one of the best around.

Advantages and Disadvantages

All explained in greater detail in this review, these pros and cons allow users to scan and understand where the strengths lie quickly.

Pros

Cons

Who Are Ladbrokes?

Who are Ladbrokes?

Established in 1886, Ladbrokes is a leading UK sports betting brand, offering services in-store, online and via their app as part of the Ladbrokes Coral Group. Punters will have seen Ladbrokes betting facilities at Premier League grounds, leading racecourses such as Ascot and Cheltenham, plus plenty more.

First Impression of Ladbrokes

Luke Bradshaw Lee

This Ladbrokes review was conducted across the desktop and mobile versions of the site, as well as on their app, so will reflect all three platforms. There are a lot of good things that Ladbrokes does. We conduct data on all UK bookmakers, reviewing how good they are at hundreds of different aspects of gambling. As it stands, Ladbrokes make our top ten in the country for darts, politics, entertainment, cash out and acca insurance. There aren’t many bookies that can match Ladbrokes for this high-end consistency.

- Luke Bradshaw Lee, Commercial content manager

Ladbrokes Live Betting

Live in-play betting is available on Ladbrokes, just look for the in-play section of their main menu. The offering is great. There’s some football, tennis and cricket, plus handball and esports. Look a little closer and you’ll find beach volleyball, badminton and table tennis. They’ve got most things covered.

The tennis in-play section does have some supporting stats, as do a few other sports. You can see how it compares to our best bookmakers for in-play betting list here.

Ladbrokes Live Streaming

With live betting comes live streaming and Ladbrokes do this better than most. Within the In-Play section of the site, you’ll see the menu bar list all the sports that are available to bet on in-play. Right next to them is a tab called “Watch Live”, and it’s this that directs you straight to any live streaming options at that moment. When I went there (on a weekday morning) there was tennis, snooker an darts, but other sports are included. Users just need to be logged in to watch.

Ladbrokes Betting Odds

Ladbrokes are one of the biggest betting sites online, as well as one of the leading high street bookmakers and are instantly recognisable from their logo. Universally known as 'The Magic Sign'. Ladbrokes are along with William Hill and Coral one of the best known UK bookmakers.

Above are details on which sports Ladbrokes were most competitive last month. The percentage figure demonstrates how often they were one of the best odds bookies, or joint best odds for each sport when compared with other bookmakers.

EG: 60% means if you used only this bookmaker for a sport, you would have got the best odds 60% of the time. You can quickly see where Ladbrokes outperformed their main rivals.

Ladbrokes Betting App or Mobile Site

The Ladbrokes mobile app does an excellent job in covering all your betting requirements when on the go. As well as the Ladbrokes sportsbook, there is gaming, slots, tables and casino options available, once you have initially downloaded the Ladbrokes app.

The A-Z sports tab was in the right place and the black coloured headers stood out and separated the different sections of the app. The menu was incredibly user-friendly, no whistles or bells, just a list of sports, exactly what you want. The Ladbrokes app didn’t all meld into one, which made finding what you were after simple.

The Ladbrokes app was one of the best apps we tested in the navigation category, in other words everything I was looking for on the Ladbrokes app I found easily. When you are packed in like sardines on a commuter train, or looking to place a bet whilst in the queue for coffee, placing a bet via an app needs to be simple.

The Ladbrokes app could not be faulted for ease of use. Take a look at the carousel of screenshots below, we think you will agree that it looks intuitive, even for novice bettors we expect there would be no issues. The Ladbrokes quick bet facility is a boon, when you select a price on an event a quick slip instantly opens, meaning you can get on in seconds. App users can also set a default start page, where having checked OLBG tipsters football predictions or horse racing predictions you can choose the football or horse racing start page.

Ladbrokes Football Betting

At Ladbrokes, the football odds are good, but on top of that there are regular promotions (the welcome offer is a football one), enhanced accas, odds boosts, and more, which definitely elevate it. There are price boosts, identified by the yellow arrow icons dotted about, and as expected, there is a huge variety in global leagues covered on top of the Premier League and major European leagues.

Bet Builder

The Ladbrokes bet builder is really good. You’ll find it under the “Bet Builder” tab and can combine different bets to create a tailor-made bet. There are heaps of different markets, and plenty of ways that you can tailor your bet to you. You can delve into this in more detail on our 10 best bet builder sites.

Bonuses

Outstanding Odds Boost

Odds boosts allow you to get even better odds when you're betting on a specific event on a daily basis!

You can obviously use the welcome offer to place football bets, but on top of that there were a couple of football-specific offers that I could find in addition to the bet boosts.

There are loads of price boosts listed, as well as pre-made bet builders with boosted odds. You can also choose to supercharge your odds on selected markets on top of that. Ladbrokes features early pay outs if your team goes up two goals and there are a number of different free to play games. These involve predictor games and half-time quizzes that can win users thousands of pounds in free cash.

Cash Out

Cash Out is, of course, available at Ladbrokes. Handily, every single market where cash out is available, has a small “Cash Out” icon listed by it so that it’s immediately clear if this is an option from the off or not. It also shows just how many markets have cash out available – a lot.

Ladbrokes Horse Racing

Ladbrokes horse racing page

This is something that Ladbrokes is known for. Their horse racing product is really good and you can see how it compares to our Best Horse Racing Betting Sites here. Within the racing section you’ll see racecards for upcoming meets, all the races which have extra places offered, as well as the ability to build your own racecard.

There are extra places offered on a load of races, an £100,000 guaranteed placepot tote guarantee and a Totepool betting guide available on all races in this country.

Ladbrokes offers Best Odds Guaranteed to its customers. You can get BOG after 8am on race day of all UK and Irish races, including in multiples, and with a maximum restriction set at £2,500.

Horse Racing Betting

Best Odds Guaranteed on all UK and Irish Racing from 8am every day and Only Spins and Horses are two big promotions for Ladbrokes Horse Racing.

Ladbrokes US Sports Betting

A full range of American Sports is available. At the time of writing, all the major leagues are in full swing.

American Football Betting

When you land on an American football section, you want to see game lines, with spread, total and moneyline markets right there. Thankfully, you get that at Ladbrokes. Some UK bookmakers try to Anglicise US sports, but removing the spread is completely the wrong thing to do as it’s the main thing punters look for from the off, so it’s great to see Ladbrokes avoiding this common mistake.

Just be aware that Ladbrokes do call the spread “handicap 2-way”. It’s worth checking out our best NFL betting sites to see how Ladbrokes compares overall.

Basketball Betting

Ladbrokes, of course, covers the NBA, that’s a given. On top of that there are events for the top leagues around the world, including Greece, Spain, Italy, and Australia. In terms of specific markets, you’ll find moneyline, total points and handicaps, plus plenty more. You can also bet in-play, with odds available quarter by quarter. Keep tabs on the top basketball betting sites though, to see if they make it onto our list.

Baseball Betting

For MLB, you can choose from markets such as the outright winner of the series, the two teams that make it to the World Series, as well as all the usuals – Run Line, Winning Margin and Team To Score First Run and so on. There are also markets for the Korean and Taiwanese leagues.

Ice Hockey Betting

The NHL is front and centre, understandably, in the Ladbrokes ice hockey section. You’ll also find competitions in Finland, Germany, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and more, as well as US college competitions. Their betting markets include Puck Line, Money Line, Total Goals, Highest Scoring Period, Double Chance, Winning Margin, Win/Draw/Win Betting and a selection of 3-Way Handicaps.

Ladbrokes Darts Betting

I’m pleased to report that in terms of darts betting sites in the UK, Ladbrokes is pretty good – in fact they rank no.9 in the country. You get great market coverage at Ladbrokes, with at least eight markets on most games, even during smaller events. For bigger tournaments that accelerates meaning that overall it’s hard for darts punters to find markets that they can’t bet on. In addition, Ladbrokes also regularly offer out free bets no deposit that you can take advantage of when making your darts bets.

Ladbrokes Snooker Betting

By Steve Madgwick - Regardless of the time of year, you should find outright markets on the game’s three biggest events – the World Championships, the UK Championships and The Masters – and it’s great that that’s the case Ladbrokes. Other events feature throughout the snooker season, and it's good to see Northern Ireland Open markets up. The odds are decent, but on top of that, there are a number of price boosts across the day and these get updated each morning.

Ladbrokes Rugby Betting (Union & League)

Rugby betting markets (across League and Union) offered for individual matches include 3-Way Handicap, Total Points, Winning Margin and a range of Try Scorer options. All the major leagues and competitions are covered across both codes which is great to see. You can see how Ladbrokes does compared to our best rugby betting sites.

Ladbrokes Cricket Betting

By James Banting - The event coverage is good at Ladbrokes, with domestic competitions in India, Australia and the UAE all there, as well as outrights for future World Cups and the Ashes, also.

There are some price boosts today for World Cup games, some of which are very generous. Betway currently tops our Best Cricket betting sites right now, with huge market depth, great odds and lots of promotions. Ladbrokes actually matches them odds-wise, so hopefully they can up their market depth and they’ll be in with a shout of being one of the best around.

Ladbrokes Tennis Betting

By James Banting - The tennis betting at Ladbrokes is nice. There are price boosts on some of the games today which not all bookmakers do. There are all the majors listed for next year, with outrights offered on all, and for upcoming matches there is a decent selection of ATP matches, as well as Challenger Series matches across the world. There’s also some enhanced accas offered at the time of review which is always nice to see.

If they could add in more markets then they’d definitely be closer to getting into the top 10 tennis betting sites on OLBG.

Ladbrokes Golf Betting

By James Banting - It’s difficult to fault the golf output here. There are future markets on all the majors, as well as the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup. There are also LIV Golf Events, the Andalucia Masters, BMW Ladies Championship, plus a few more. You will find golf odds on the likes of Top 5 and Top 10 Finish, Round Leaders and Dual Forecast right here, and even Hole In One markets.

There are also dome imaginative #getaprice specials listed. These include Charlie Woods (son of Tiger) to win a major before he turns 21, or before he turns 30, plus Rory McIlroy to win two majors next year.

Ladbrokes Motorsports Betting

By Andy Powell - This has pretty much everything that you’d like. There is a motorsports tab in the menu, but to be honest each different sport seems to have its own section already as there are tabs for Formula 1, Speedway, Motor Bikes. I’d guess the former is where smaller events, as well as international motor sports such as Nascar get listed. Overall, it’s really good.

Ladbrokes Boxing Betting

By Frank Monkhouse former professional boxer - I like betting on boxing with Ladbrokes. There’s plenty of bouts listed, with loads of markets in each, including Round Betting, Total Rounds (Under/Over), Round Group Betting and Will The Fight Go The Distance. Closer to the time of each fight you get good bonuses and promotions added, too.

Ladbrokes Other Sports Betting

Whilst these sports might sound very niche, there is a massive market for fans, and millions of them in the UK, so good coverage of niche sports and events is key to be reviewed on OLBG.

Other Sports at Ladbrokes 🌍🏀🏐🚴🎮

Ladbrokes offers diverse betting options: handball 🏆, volleyball 🏐, cycling 🚴, Aussie rules 🏉, and esports 🎮. Explore global matches, detailed stats, and infinite markets.

Ladbrokes offers extensive betting options for Handball, volleyball, cycling, AFL betting, and esports. Handball includes global competitions; volleyball,covers European Championships and various tournaments; cycling features future tours and current races; AFL betting has comprehensive stats and esports offers all major games like League of Legends and CS:GO.

Political Betting

By Nigel Skinner - You can compare Ladbrokes to other political betting options and see if you agree. We have them as the 8th best in the country based on all our collected data. In addition to its general UK and rest of the world offering, Ladbrokes’s specials are interesting, quirky and intriguing to punters looking for something a little different. UK and Irish markets are extensive, although you won’t find as many international options as some of the other bookmakers on this list. That shouldn’t detract from what is still a great option for betting on politics.

Entertainment and Specials

By Jake Ashton - As with its politics offering, Ladbrokes is fantastic for entertainment and specials, too, and are the 6th best in the country based on our ranking of the best entertainment bookmakers in the UK. While the actual number of markets available may not be as high as the others above Ladbrokes on this list, it still offers plenty to keep people interested, and odds to rival them all. It scores very highly on stake limitations, and even has a few novelty bets not seen on other bookmakers’ sites.

Casino

Ladbrokes does have a full casino offering. You can read it in detail in our Ladbrokes casino review. You can also check our casino sites page for dedicated new online casinos and slot sites.

Ladbrokes Account Opening Process

You can register from this OLBG page or the OLBG App; either way, you will receive the latest offers. To create your new account, you will need to click the banner on this OLBG page. To register, you will need to:

  1. Supply your full name.

Overall the navigation is very good. There’s a lot of information crammed into each page which may be a little disorientating for some, but I never found it hard to find anything and, to be honest, kept seeing little alerts or icons telling me about various things (if there is cash out, price boosts, live streaming etc) that normally you have to hunt around for. You definitely get the sense that people who bet regularly are involved in designing the product.

Reviews on both the App Store and Google Play are great, with both sets of users happy with the app. Ladbrokes's app has a rating of over 4 out of 5 on OLBG's best betting apps ranking with plenty of ratings provided.

Placing a bet

This section should only really highlight if there are issues, as the process is almost identical on every site.

Placing a bet on Ladbrokes is straightforward with the betslip instantly popping up on the side of your screen on the desktop site. This adds your selection straight into your slip with the speed of placing the bet after clicking it less than a second.

The app is fairly similar to the desktop site with the betslip going at the bottom of your screen as soon as you pick your selection on there. In-play betting will always be slower to place a bet but from the example bets that we did we found that the prices stayed the same for the few seconds it took for the bet to process in-play.

Managing your account

An integral part of any betting site is the account management side of things with the ease of access to various account details always important. Plenty of options are available in the My Account section of Ladbrokes including Bet History, Banking History and overall transactions.

Safer Gambling portals can be found in the account section too with Ladbrokes's safer gambling portal a brilliant tool to use on the site and app. Deposit limits, current time alerts, specific product restrictions and more can be found in the safer gambling section.

Ladbrokes Responsible Gambling Features

This is an excellent part of the Ladbrokes product. By going to their Responsible Gambling menu in the navigation, you can turn deposit limits on or off, and then obviously set what these limits are. You can also deactivate your account through their Self-Exclusion tool, add a timer to monitor how much time you’re spending betting or take a self-assessment test to monitor your behaviour more closely. Overall, it’s a really good showing.

Responsible Gambling

Ladbrokes has a full suite of responsible gambling tools for your protection and may request further identification after certain depositing levels are exceeded or stakes are increased quickly.

“Great for the inexperienced”

Reviewed: October 2024


I’m not a big bettor by any means, which will probably tell you that I need things very simple. The Ladbrokes site is easy to use, they get their market prices up early for events and they settle open bets quickly. They have a instant chat help section, which is great for the inexperienced as there is always someone there to point you in the right direction. I haven’t had any problems with them and recommend them regularly.

“Ladbrokes: A Betting Tradition with a Modern Twist”

Reviewed: October 2024


Ladbrokes, with its rich history in sports betting, seamlessly combines tradition with innovation. The platform offers a user-friendly experience, and its competitive odds make it a compelling choice for bettors. Whether you're looking for classic bets or the latest features, Ladbrokes has it all. It's a testament to how a respected name in betting can evolve to meet modern demands while retaining its core strengths.

“Improvements”

Reviewed: October 2024


Ladbrokes deserve a mention, and a pat on the back, for the recent website improvements, which were much needed. They've simplified things, with a new drop down menu/navigation bar, meaning it's easy to find what you're looking for. It is what it is, and if you use odds comparison sites you will see that there are opportunities to benefit from betting here, just as elsewhere. On the matter of refusing bets, I really can't comment, as I've had no problem with Ladbrokes in this respect, but can understand that if restrictions are applied, I've suffered this elsewhere, then it becomes a waste of time trying to bet with whichever bookmaker has implemented the restriction.

“One of the best online bookies”

Reviewed: October 2024


I find that Ladbrokes generally have competitive odds, and you get one daily boost per day, so if you're a casual gambler your daily boost usually puts their odds right at the top of the market. I've had my account for many years and only once had a minor problem (they initially didn't credit a free bet offer, but when I raised the issue they quickly resolved it). Overall, one of the best online bookies.

“OKish”

Reviewed: October 2024


The site is easily navigated and every sport is covered but they are very picky about which markets they put on the app. For example top run scorers markets in cricket matches are not available, well they are available if you go to something like odds checker and go through all the palaver or if you can get to a shop but not on the app. Related bets are also an issue ,I tried to place a bet on the current T20 world cup top run tournament run scorer and wicket taker in two singles and an each way double and it was picked up as a related double online, I placed the exact same bet in the shop with no problem. So, some issues but generally a 'mid table' performance from Ladbrokes app.

“Don’t really like Ladbrokes.”

I used to use my local ladbrokes. Now i don’t. Since lock down I have used a few other bookmakers online. Haven’t been in my local ladbrokes for ages. Reasons being that their odds were always skimpy compared to other bookies. A know punters that preferred to travel a few miles to get better odds ( deals) than place money on with ladbrokes. Examples……another local bookie would offer say 10/11 on a football team. Ladbrokes offer 8/11.( makes a difference to a serious punter ). Remember once having a winning bet on Phil mickelson. I took 12/1 with ladbrokes. Heard that other bookmakers had him at 14/1 and even 16/1. There are many examples like that. And always Ladbrokes offered shorter odds. Don’t ever remember them offering better odds. Also noticed that Ladbrokes do not offer great ew incentives. Other bookies offer 5…6 …7 and even 8 places. Not Ladbrokes. And no real incentives in the free bet department. And maybe this is just a problem with ladbrokes in my area, but they were always slow in paying out a big bet. Sometimes taking days. So to sum up, I don’t like ladbrokes. Don’t like their shops. And wouldn’t sign up with them online. Sorry about that. Can’t like everyone.

“Read the terms first .”

I thought I had taken up a generous sign up offer only to discover that I did not qualify as I used Paypal to deposit my cash . I should have read the terms and conditions more carefully , my fault . It did not help , however , that the sign up page has a Paypal logo prominently displayed , saying that it was an easier option for signing up . This was a bit misleading . Other members please be aware . Saying that, the site is easy to navigate and the " boost " feature on certain races is a real bonus .

“Not for me”

For what is one of the original High Street bookies, I have never liked their site, not the easiest to navigate round. I only use them if they offer the best prices. They are very tight with the offers

“Really slow and unresponsive website”

Reviewed: October 2024


I'd love to give Laddies a better rating because I've used them for years and their odds are good, extras and promotions okay plus they do a pretty full offering on the gee-gees which for me is important. They do lack a good selection of pro-card ways to bet in a race plus they don't always offer great extra places for big races. They DO offer BOG which is good plus you can link your online betting to in-shop card which means you can cash out and review your in-shop bets online. The main problem with them is their damned website is SOOOO slow and nigh on impossible to use at times, particulalry when busy. I get the impression that they know they need an overhaul and to launch a good app to go with their products but because they are such a massive bookies, its going to be a big deal when they do it, Overall, a decent enough in store bookmakers but not one I'd rush to use online or if playing exotics. However, they are one of the more comprehensive bookies out there if you are intersted in multi-sport international betting.

“Let me have a bet!”

Reviewed: October 2024


I have been using Ladbroeks for 10 years or so, of late, they decided to make changes to my account, I can no longer benefit from any offers they have, BOG etc, I no longer recieve marketing emails, and I've had 2 bets accepted in a 1 month Period. Today I attempted to place a £2 bet at 40's, and was told that it exceeded the maximum they could except, and that I would have to ring! I also tried to have a £5 bet on the football at 9/4, was again told it exceeded my limit, priceless, and after 10 years with them!
