    I need help - The bet was settled incorrectly
    I don't want to make a fuss about it but in my experience I don't think the bookie is going to change his mind, this is really a though call.

    I already submitted to them all the screenshots, it took me 2 minutes and I don't want to bother too much about it, but I wanted to ask for your opinion.

    I placed a few bets today on the stock-market, the last bet I placed was on the Dow Jones level at 12:10pm EST.

    Here is my betting slip:



    Now according to them they settled the bet on 7978





    But you can check this out:
    http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=^DJI

    The Dow Jones graph in Yahoo is quite accurate and it shows:

    12:10pm EST - 7,986.29



    Try it yourself, go there and scroll with the mouse over the chart.
    I also mentioned to them the graph at that time was in uptrend started around 12:08pm - 12:09pm but it's definitely above the 7980 mark (my bet!)

    I assume there are 60 seconds in a minute so they probably picked a second in 12:10pm where the graph was below 7,980 but again, it's really hard to tell.

    The stake was not a big amount, only £10 so ...

    I'm taking it all in a good spirit.

    What do you guys think?
    I just did chat with the clientsupport, but I'm awaiting right now their reply, I just don't think they would change their mind.

    So what's your opinion about it all?

      I have to. Some Java pages don't work for me well only with Netscape. I'm doing some scripts and also like to bet on the same time haha.

      Netscape has the best editor for Java and HTML, even nowadays IMO.

                  Reply:

                  Thank you for contacting Paddy Power Customer Support.

                  I have checked the settlement of your bet and can confirm that the bet has been settled correctly.

                  We settled this market at 7978.48 which as this was the official opening level for the market in question. We always settle on the opening level for each market.

                  If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

                  -------

                  lol their bet says at what level the market will be at 12:10pm
                  the fact he is using words such as "we always settle on the opening level" is rubbish.

                              You rub jjgold's bald head until Bill Dozer pops out and then he grants you 3 wishes.


                              I'm not an asshole.

                                  It's not about £10 loss, it's about being right.
                                  Madoff is a piece of ****

                                      you actually bet on what level the the stock market will be at a particular time?

                                      help is available, all you need to do is ask.

                                          Correct.
                                          I've placed a bet on what level the Dow Jones would be at 12:10pm EST today.

                                          As you can see both MSN and Yahoo Finance graphs show it was way above the 7980 points.
                                          According to them it wasn't, so I'm arguing about it.

                                                I got the jist of what you were betting and why you think you were cheated. Not all Americans are dumb. I just can't believe that you actually bet on this. Isn't there a nice soccer game on or something that you can bet on?

                                                      It's just 10 pounds.... I once lost $10 on a blackjack hand at Betjm even though I had 21, but didn't complain whatsoever. Just stopped playing there.

                                                            It took me 2 minutes to copy-paste and send over all the details.
                                                            On my end it is not a big burden.
                                                            I think peope should be aware of how books can change markets according to their choice.

                                                            It's not about £10, it's about being right.

                                                              Brits are very cheap. They're the only ones who charge you the exact price. If you buy something and it's £10.01 and you have only £10 they won't give you the item unless you pay the penny (1 pence) as well.

                                                              As far as it goes for me I argue about the idea itself, not the amount. Why should I let them do the same thing again to other customers?
