    betfair complaint
    Betfair has written an email to me saying they have suspended my account due to he integrity of the betting on my account specifically a match played in bulgaria which had won and they have subsequently withdrawn the funds in which were gained in result of that bet and are holding these funds in credebfraud int in the amount of 38,615.22. The accusation is ridiculous if they are implying i had any control over the outcome of the result of any match that i have played. Of greater frustration is that from tips gathered from a well know betting site this was one of three bets i placed with similar stakes the other two losing, first being benfica to win and over 2.5 goals in which i lost 25000eu the second match being slavia sofia v botev vratsa the game in question where i won 38,615.22 and then straight after dinamo bucharest to win in which i lost the majority of gains from the botev vratsa match lossing aprox 33,000. I am frustrated first at the accusation and most of all that the winnings were payed to account and made available to play the dynamo bucharest game of which i may have never played if i was aware of the intend actions that betfair was going to imply on the account the false sense of these winnings made me play an amount that i may have had no intention of making if the winnings from the previous match were never to be paid. Betfairs response to this is that an investigation will be put underway and it may take several months.

    My betting patterns to the two losing matches may differ slightly but it is very much in line i have bet on benfica while losing to turn around the match , in the case of the botev vratsa i have followed and back the team heavily on the win and put smaller stakes on the draw half time after being down 1.0 in the 19th min and the followed on to place bets on the win,the dynamo bucharest match is very similar in which i place a large sum on the win pre match plus live i proceed to back the team whilst losing 0.1 and again after they score and bring the match back to a tie 1.1i back them again in this case the dinamo bucharest and the benfica matches have lost and the botev vratsa game has won. My stakes in total on losing bets was in a sum of aprox 58000 eu in which my integrity is not in question but is being put in question for the 38,615 that was won in the bulgarian botev vratsa event.



    What action can i take

          Even if you are dirty I don't see how it's Betfair's business to judge that, they're an exchange

            From Wikipedia:

            "Betfair in particular has noted that they have signed numerous information-sharing agreements with governing bodies around the world with whom they co-operate fully on matters if the latter suspects corruption to have taken place."

            This may fall into this category

              i am not a liar i have better things to do with my time than sit here and make things up. I am betting over 2,000,000 a month so what may be a large stake for you is maybe not so large for me.But i didnt enter this blog to test who has the biggest b---s i came for advice if anyone has had such a situation.

                lots of fixed matches out there

                it's just getting on the ones before everyone knows but risking not getting yourself paid or banned is the problem

                  Betfair left market open so should pay wininngis, no other bookie had that match live o prelive. Also would be interesting to know if bettors who lost money on this match are being contacted.

                      Unless the game is PROVEN to be fixed by an authority like fifa etc, then you should be paid.
                      Betfair cant decide for themselves, however unusual the betting patterns were.
                      Willhill paid out and Im guessing most other books paid out as well - I hope you get paid.
                      Ignore the odds; those are for specific times of the game:

                        im happy for betfair to come conduct any investigation on me they like,but theyve given me a time period for investigation of several months,is it normal betfair paying out the bet allowing you to place bets with your theoretical winnings , only for you to then lose them and then take from your account the profits from the 'suspect' match i may have never played 35 odd thousand on dinamo bucharest had i known botev wasn't paid and whats to say the dinamo match wasn't fixed and i lost my money in that way. weather the match is suspect or not its ridiculous to say that i knew anything about it i have no relation with bulgaria romania or portugal being the 3 matches i played in that 48 hr period. losing 58k isnt suspect but winning 1 out of the three is...betfair shpuld have removed the match if it was suspect not allow you to play ,pay out your winnings allow you to play them and then shut you down once you have lost them..
