#38Nothing in Justin's video casts any doubt on the money having been paid by Betfair to the player's agent?Originally posted by yokspotBeyond Betfair's word, there is no evidence for this. The processor paid $400,000. We can corroborate that Betfair paid this much to them and no more, making for a cheap 11% settlement for Betfair on the $3,500,000.Comment -

#40I have seen perhaps 300 cases of a processor failing, and stiffing a player. In almost 100% of those cases, the sportsbook made it right.Originally posted by tommygunBetfair isn't stiffing anyone, the processor has stiffed the player.
If this case ultimately hinges on Betfair using a bad processor, Betfair would join BetEd as the only books to screw a player based on a processor. But at least BetEd folded after the fiasco.Comment -

#41In the ordinary course of events Betfair don't use "processors" do they?Originally posted by Justin7I have seen perhaps 300 cases of a processor failing, and stiffing a player. In almost 100% of those cases, the sportsbook made it right.

I've always received direct and pretty well immediate withdrawals from Betfair to my nominated account.
This chap nominated "PSP" as his agent for the transaction.
imho the case really rests on who's agent "PSP" is.
If Betfair's, then yes they have a responsibility to get it fixed up.
If the player's, then that's not Betfair's responsibility unless they recommended him to use them.
I've never heard of Betfair making any such recommendation and it seems nobody else has either.
Until those issues are resolved it is premature to call Betfair at fault.Comment -

#44Can you consider this to be a 'processor' issue though given that the PSP was also the master-account holder?Originally posted by Justin7I have seen perhaps 300 cases of a processor failing, and stiffing a player. In almost 100% of those cases, the sportsbook made it right.

I still really don't understand what the nature of the problems were for the player when he had his own direct account and why/how he ended up with the arrangement with the PSP and I guess that the only way will will know for sure is if the case ever goes to court with Betfair as a defendant.Comment -

#49When did you submit the complaint? I have dealt with the LGA a couple of times and they were slow but did respond (once positively) eventually.Originally posted by sa6othey don't reply.
Also how much did you receive from Betfair in terms of loss refunds? Was using this "risk-free" promotion your only activity on the site?Comment -

LGA said my case is interesting and I'm waiting for an answer.
It's not about the money-35 euro is not money.
I simply cannot agree Betfair to steal from me.
if a scam bookmaker don't pay me,I'd agree ,as this is their usual way of doing business.Comment -

#52I understand you're frustrated but there's no need to wish ill on another poster. 99% of us who play with Betfair never even have to talk to their Customer Service, let alone have a problem with them. Everyone is always going to have different views on a book or an exchange but try to keep your anger directed towards Betfair and not anyone who comes in here to give their opinion. Best of luck.Originally posted by sa6o

#53Looks like the the screwing is happening from both ends to me problem is Betfairs is bigger than yours.lol
You trued to take liberties and be too cute and ended up being bent over yourself. In my experiece BF have always paid but they are quite simply too big for their boots. The real issue is that exchange users need more options than the staleness that is out there. Betfair are affectively a monopoly so they can do what they want. Kinda like a big bully.
But you know what happens to bullies eventually they end up getting smacked when they aint looking .lolComment -

I hope YOU get robbed, too.
In my experience:In my experiece BF have always paid.
1) They stole $3,100,000 from one Russian (caveat that they may have paid the processor; we have no evidence for this).
2) They stole at least several million more in Happy Hour confiscations.
What was that about "your experience" again? Looks like you're a tad behind the times.Comment -

Don't even have an account with them but I definitely must open one. I wonder how popular will they become in the next 2 years. Too bad they are Malta-based. I generally have more trust in the UK regulated ones.

If you doubt what I said it simply proves you don't know much about the business.
