ComeOn Review


The ComeOn brand first came online in 2010 and in the digital era that represents a fair period that has allowed them to become established. Over the years, they have built a reputation for strong prices that are frequently enhanced by regular price boosts along with a small, but generous set of promotions.

Most British bettors already have a wide set of bookmakers on their list so why should you look at adding ComeOn to your own portfolio?

ComeOn Promotions

Unlike most operators, ComeOn provide a choice of offers, depending on whether players want to start with the sportsbook or casino. You can’t take both of these so the selection is between a welcome bonus of up to £200.00 on the casino or £20.00 in free bets for the sporting markets.

Obviously, one may seem much more lucrative than the other but some punters will see casino as more volatile and will therefore prefer just to claim the free sports bets. To do this, open an account, deposit at least £10.00 and then stake that minimum £10.00 on an event with odds of 1.50 or longer. On settlement, ComeOn will credit you with 2x £10.00 free bet tokens.

Ongoing promotions are kept to a minimum but this bookmaker does have a free bet club where players can claim a bonus token worth £25.00 very week so there is some definite value for those who want to be here for the longer term.

Sporting Markets and Odds Value

The good news for potential customers in the UK is that the majority of our favourite sports are all covered by ComeOn. All the popular options are here and the fact that horse racing is included should see an increase in custom.

Here is the full list of what you can bet on:

Football, Horse Racing, Greyhounds, Tennis, Basketball, Ice Hockey, Rugby Union, Darts, Snooker, Pool, American Football, Aussie Rules, Badminton, Baseball, Boxing, Chess, Cricket, Cycling, Floorball, Futsal, Gaelic Football, Golf, Handball, MMA, Motor Racing, Netball, Rugby League, Sailing, Speedway, Surfing, Table Tennis, Trotting, Volleyball, Winter Sports.

ComeOn have also backed the growing eSports market with a host of options and like most good bookies, there is potential to bet on special events in the world of entertainment and politics.

As for prices, ComeOn do not currently appear on the major odds comparison sites and that may be surprising considering they have been with us for nearly a decade. That could be a next step for the company but monitoring of their odds shows strong prices across the board, particularly on the core UK areas of football and horse racing.

Banking

ComeOn list all of the main funding options for those looking to deposit to or withdraw from their account. All plastic methods are provided so anyone preferring debit cards is covered while Skrill, Neteller, PaySafe and Ukash are listed.

This operator prides itself on the fact that it accepts players in most countries and there is a huge range of currencies to play in. For UK customers, all that really matters is that GBP is included and there are a number of ways in which you can get on board here and play with sterling.

Customer Service

Most operators look to offer a live chat facility: It’s available with ComeOn and this is the way that most of us like to receive our customer service in the modern day. Questions are answered in real time and when we’ve checked, a live chat operator has always been available.

There are other options including a customer service email but if there is one criticism of this side of the operation, it’s that the help facilities can be hard to find. The best option is to click on the small square question mark icon at the top right of the page and you’ll get through to that live chat operator.

Conclusion

It’s rare for a sportsbook to be around for nearly ten years but still fall short of getting into the mainstream. We think that in the case of ComeOn, there is a lot to be gained from signing up and that they should be more on the general radar.

The welcome promotion could be more competitive but it’s easy to get hold of £20.00 in free bets and the free bet club offers more value with that £25.00 weekly token. There is a wide set of markets too and with strong prices thrown in, ComeOn gives British bettors a great mix of choice and value.

Pros (+)

Cons (-)

  • Welcome offer makes customers choose between sportsbook and casino which may not appeal to some punters who expect both
  • Customer Service Options can be hard to locate on the home page
