Does "on hold" mean you can gamble, but can't withdraw? Pinnacle done this with me. If that is the case, you could always put your money on something then go to a real bookies and put on the opposite... maybe get your dad to do that part though. You'd make a slight loss but it would get the money off Bet365.

... you're asking him to PM you the strategy that makes money without any prior knowledge to "get you started"? I'm sure he doesn't mind people picking his brain if you have ideas of your own but that's a bit too far to ask him to give you free money more or less.
