They seem to be well established in the Balkan market. I signed up and they are offering a 50% bonus, up to €100. Anyone use www.skedina.com?

They are owned by Sommerville Management Co Ltd who also own Ball2Win. I would advise you to read the recent thread entitled 'Ball2Win' before you deposit any money with Skedina or any other bookmaker owned by Sommerville Management Co Ltd.

I just emailed them about this and they replied within 10 min via email. Apparently they operate as a separate entity with a different management team under Sommerville. So no association with Ball2Win.

They are offering a 50% Welcome bonus, up to €100 so I'm give them a shot and report back on my experience.

OK, give them a try and let us know how you get on.

I would not have anything to do with Gobetgo, Ball2win, or Skedina. Their parent company Somerville Management is registered in the British Virgin Islands (BVI), a notorious place for secrecy and money laundering. These jokers also discriminate against female gamblers-see Sportsbook Review website.
Nobody can ever trace the owners of a company that is registered in the BVI, due to its secrecy laws.Therefore, you could be betting with a company that has links to organized crime, and from what I read about these three firms on other forums it would not surprise me. Betcas is another company that hides its ownnership details.

Hi guys,

As promised, I gave Skedina a try and my experience with them was great. One thing which needs to be pointed out is their bonus, they offer a 50% bonus, up to 100 Euros but you must play 10x through the bonus prior to withdrawal. You do have the option to opt out of the bonus and you may withdraw anytime. They offer 1 free withdrawal per month and they have very good odds.
The appeared very professional which is expected considering that they have been operating in the Balkans for some years now.

Does anyone know if they offer some sort of bonus when you sign up?

I would imagine so, but you would be stupid to risk any money with them judging by the company's history

Maybe I should be a little bit clearer - I believe sommerville management are insolvent, they owned gobetgo which folded not so long ago. Not sure if their statement meant gobetgo were insolvent or the parent company (somerville). However depositing at any of their sites should be avoided at all costs

finleystep - when I signed up they send me a bonus code which gave me 50% bonus, up to 100 euros.

youmum - I've used them and I'm still doing so and I've never had an issue with them. I've actually reached out to them about gobetgo situation and according to them, they have have no association with them.
I've noticed Sommerville is associated with a lot of other sites as well, it appears as they are a license provider. Looks like a lot of these companies operate on a white label solution.

Whitelabel being the big issue here. There are plenty of faux license providers, which don't care as long as they get their payments.

Anyone could start a bookie site with a tiny amount of start up capital. All they need is a couple of grand.
Whitelabels can work in a similar way to an affiliate program, so it's incredibly easy for anyone to start a scam bookie site from their bedroom.

Guessing skedina is yours. Especially considering you're listed as being from Italy on here, and Italy has their own laws relating to online gambling. I doubt very much that you are a regular user as it seems to me that they shouldn't be accepting your custom.

"they offer a 50% bonus, up to 100 Euros but you must play 10x through the bonus prior to withdrawal. You do have the option to opt out of the bonus and you may withdraw anytime. They offer 1 free withdrawal per month and they have very good odds.."

All of what you state here should ring alarm bells with any knowledgeable player. Poor bonus terms, 1 free withdrawal and good odds. This just shows huge intent to keep every players money without the intention of paying. I bet they have some dodgy max payout rule as well

Got bored and decided to check the terms, dodgy is being nice!!!!!!
