Paddy Power have been established since 1988 and are currently Ireland’s largest bookmaker. Although widely respected, they have something of a controversial opinion within the betting industry due to a number of close-to-the-bone marketing campaigns and their tendency to pay out on outcomes before an event has even been settled.
The Paddy Power website is quick, clean and easy-to-use. They have one of the easiest sign-up processes in the industry and finding your bet is a pretty straightforward process. As mentioned, the Irish firm delight in providing humorous editorial to accompany many of their homepage-featured markets, while the theme continues with their entertaining customer emails.
Paddy are unafraid of taking a position on a big football or rugby match, especially one concerning England or Ireland. Paddy Power's money-back offers should also be applauded, especially as they always provide realistic outcomes - such as cashback if Owen scores the last goal for England.
Paddy Power always seem to have an extensive range of markets on the popular sporting events.
8am – midnight, Monday to Saturday and 9am – midnight on a Sunday. Available languages are English, Spanish and German and they seem to be reasonably efficient at dealing with customer queries.
Any new customers visiting Paddy Power from Bettingpro will qualify for up to £30 in free bets.
Having an account with Paddy Power can be a rewarding experience, not least because you can get cashback or even paid out despite backing a losing selection.
