DO NOT HONOUR THERE BETS!
I had a winning Bet with William Hill online and they have 'Refused' to honour by Bett?I have been in contact with there 24hr service team(A1) and they keeping telling the Team are looking in to this matter?They have taken my Bet and my money and have not honoured my winnings. This is Illegal. All you good people out there who like a Bet Do not go any near William Hill online, they WILL NOT HONOUR THERE BETS! Lots of Excuses not to pay! 🤔 The one thing Guaranteed 'They will take your Bet but if it is a winning Bet they will find any Excuse Not to Pay. They have almost lost all there High street shops and if they continue Not Honouring people's winning Bets they will end up Closing this online business. I will be writing to The Obsuman as well as my local MP. SHAME ON YOU 'WILLIAM HILL ONLINE.' Have you No Shame? I know the Answer to that a Big NO. If this can help just one person out there then at least I've helped. 👍

William Hill not honouring there Bets.
William Hill online is an absolute Scam.I won a Bet and I withdraw my winnings and surprise surprise they have not paid me up to now? 😅It keeps saying ' In Process'I have waited for over a week and nothing has happened.It is over £300.I tried customer service online and there AI is Shambolic.They have not honoured my Bet and they are not to be Trusted.I advice all who like to have a bet is to avoid 'William Hill at all cost.Thankfully all there High street branches are closing and so pleased the Government have increased on the amount they owe in taxes. 👍I strongly advice that in the future they honour and pay there customers. If I can help just one person I have done my job. Very Unsatisfied Customer. 😟 I will also writing to The ombudsman.

I guess everyone is right
In May, I was playing a slot with £5 stakes and triggered a bonus round. The bonus never loaded or paid out, so I raised the issue with William Hill at the time.Weeks went by with no resolution. I raised it again in June, and I was told the issue needed to be re-escalated. Fine — I provided everything they asked for, including the relevant dates and transaction details.Then, two weeks later, I was told I hadn’t provided the transaction ID.Seriously?I have screenshots showing that the transaction ID was provided — not once, but twice. So either the information being supplied isn’t being properly checked, or nobody is actually taking responsibility for resolving the complaint.I eventually took it to the Second Opinion Team, expecting someone to finally look at the evidence properly. Four days ago, I received their response — and unbelievably, I was told the exact same thing: no transaction ID had been provided.At this point, it’s beyond frustrating. I’ve repeatedly provided the information requested and have evidence to prove it, yet I’m still being told that I haven’t provided it.Then came the £20 offer to close the complaint.I declined.This isn’t about accepting £20 and making the problem disappear. It’s about the principle and the absolutely appalling way this complaint has been handled. I raised it in May, chased it again in June, supplied the requested information, provided screenshots, escalated it further — and I’m still being given the same response.The live chat experience hasn’t helped either. Some of the responses are so robotic and generic that it genuinely feels like you’re communicating with AI rather than someone actually reading and understanding what you’re saying.I’ve now accepted that I’m probably never going to receive the bonus or any potential winnings that could have resulted from it. What I haven’t accepted is being repeatedly told I didn’t provide information that I can literally prove I provided.William Hill, you have turned what should have been a straightforward issue into months of unnecessary hassle.Extremely poor communication. Extremely poor complaint handling. And, ultimately, a very disappointing experience.I won’t be recommending William Hill based on this experience.

I got a notification for 10 free spins today when I opened it it didn’t give me nothing. Spoke to a manager in the live chat basically called me a liar. Didn’t help me wasted an hour of my time basically did not care. They do not care for their customers, they don’t care about anybody. All they care about is taking money off people.

Hi I placed a bet at a local William hill bookmaker on Sunday when I went to collect my winnings the lad behind the counter said there wasn’t enough in the till to pay me so he asked if I’d want it paid back in my bank account I asked him how long would it take to clear and he replied 2-3 days it’s Thursday now and hasn’t still cleared why is this when I was told 2-3 days why do these bookmakers hold on to the money owed me for so long shouldn’t they pay interest on it for holding out winnings
