However, the similarities end here as a 1.5% processing fee will come into action for making a deposit using a credit card, the first time we stumbled across a company making money off the back of a simple transaction which, unsurprisingly irks many a customer.

One of the oldest names in the world of betting and therefore among the more established and reputable, Ladbrokes caters mostly for the UK market. It’s no surprise then to see Football and horse racing as their primary focus but they’re by no stretch a one show pony and are known to offer wide range of other sports also.

Credit/Debit Cards

Credit/Debit Cards are the most commonly used payment methods and allow you to deposit up to £99,000 instantly.

However, the maximum you can withdraw differs based on the card used. For instance, VISA permits £55,000 to be withdrawn, while with a Mastercard, the max you can take out is £36,000. Any amount of over £30,000 will be subject to being authorized via the Customer support team.

The processing time of between 1-3 banking days to withdraw money stated is a bit quicker than the industry norm however Ladbrokes make it known that this can sometimes take a little longer for matters beyond their control.

Formerly known as Victor Chandler, BetVictor is one of the more unique bookmakers around in the sense it has remained a family run business since its inception in 1946. In addition to its superb odds and wide range of different sports covered, such longevity means the company is extremely well thought of throughout the industry.

Credit/debit card

It’s widely known that BetVictor pledges a ‘No Limit’ on a maximum deposit when using a Credit or Debit card.

From reading their terms and conditions, they pledge ‘No amounts deposited with BetVictor into the Account will attract any interest’. In other words you’re pretty much free to deposit how ever much you fancy. As referred to previously though, whoever you bank with will have a limit on how much you can remove from your bank account in one online transaction so it’s worth checking with your bank first.

The same rule applies to withdrawing too - no amount will be regarded as too much or too little and in the worst case scenario will be with you in five days. As before though, the transaction could be too much for your bank to process into your account in one go.

• Maximum deposit: No limit
• Length of transaction: Instant
• Maximum withdrawal No limit
• Length of transaction: 3-5 working days
