Smarkets - anyone had any dealings with them?

Just curious really. Their odds on horse racing are often a shade better than Betdaq (liquidity is a fair bit lower, however). Their BMR rating is only 2.5 (they were downgraded from 3- at the end of 2012). Has anyone tried them and, if so, what are your experiences of them?

They don`t like big winners (they have closed winning accounts)- other than that no major issues. Beware of the deposit fees.

Thanks, Didobuh. I noticed that they charge for all deposits except via debit card and bank transfer, which I found a bit off-putting. Doesn't strike me as the most sensible approach for a company looking to grow their business either.
