Ladbrokes has been operating since 1886 and has over 2,200 betting shops in the UK. This famous name is the largest retail bookmaker in the world.
Ladbrokes currently offer a £50 free bet for new customers, but not during the Grand National.
To join Ladbrokes just click the "Open account" link at the top of their site above the login box, then fill in the registration form to become a member. Your first bet will be matched up to £50.
The Ladbrokes website is easy to navigate, although a little small on modern screen resolutions. There are plenty of sports to bet on and a reasonable number of betting markets within them. They often have some decent odds as well.
Like other English highstreet bookmakers, Ladbrokes focses well on horse racing and football. It is easy to find alternative markets for an event via the drop down menu next to it. One of the major things that sets Ladbrokes apart from other bookmakers is that they offer much higher betting limits.
Like William Hill, Ladbrokes provide their own sport TV service, named "Ladbrokes TV". There are a good range of sports to watch, although you probably won't find any English events due to licencing. They also have a nicely designed in-play betting system so you can bet while you are watching the match.
Like a growing number of bookmakers, Ladbrokes also have live scores and commentaries on their site. They also have their own fantasy football game.
Ladbrokes is a name you can't miss on the highstreet and i'ts a name you shouldn't miss on the Internet.
