General Chat

I've been on the PP Live Chat this afternoon, and after the Operator "escalated the issue to the settlement team, and they have informed, as per our rules we would pay the maximum amount at the time".

I responded asking for clarity that they meant the "at the time the bets were placed" and PP confirmed this.

I have the conversation evidenced (screenshots), so if anyone has problems getting appropriate payout above ?50k from PP for pre-existing bets, let me know and I'll happily share the screenshots as evidence to support your claim.

Good effort AV.
A loose threat of legal advice should win the day….

With the fucking shit prices on offer its getting hard to find a bet to win 250k :highly_amused:

Yeah, but there are two separate issues here: the fact they appear to be changing the terms on existing bets, and as unlikely as it is for many in here if you have a bet that pays 250k you want paying.
It was only 2021 when our very own Faugheen_Machine had a jackpot up of around 250k, how would he have felt if the phone call came offering congratulations but saying they’re keeping 200k of it just because they can…

That one got thrown in too :biggrin-new:
Some decent peace of mind from On The Fringe in a recent post, good work fella!
As well as the main question, I asked for clarification on the date the T&C's were changed and also if the 50k limit is per bet or per day (it reads like per bet on the sheet they sent me, but its ambiguous enough), so will see what I get back.

They up the State Pension age on a daily basis and we all put up with it. Us English are too nice. Should burn the place down like the French.

…apologies if mentioned but another daft one from me;

Do we know if the PP/BFSB 50k limit applies to them as one company or are they treated as separate entities (can you win 50k with PP and 50k BFSB on the same settlement day)?

They are two separate trading bodies so have to pay both, same for Lads/Corals, 888/Hills…

Could you let me know the dates please if they get back to you? I have a good number of yankees that most would return over 50k. Not that I will land one so will probably be irrelevant but I live in hope. I’d definitely take legal action should one land. You’ve entered a contract upon placing the bet so the t&c’s at the time should stand. I won’t be placing any more with them now.

Betterdaysahead v Aurora Vega.....who wins?

My vote goes to latter. Higher Bumper RPR than BDA and that one bombed at this year's Fez.

Which one bombed at the festival?

BDA all day long for me.

Agree entirely, that last bumper AV won at at Killarney was absolute dross, she was pulled after being declared against You Oughta Know presumably for Willie to find her an easier test!

I’m not keen on her at all despite the hype.
 
Just realised it's Better Times Ahead not Better Days. Still prefer Vega though.

I believe she may have been in season that day?? Maybe wrong.

Most of Willie's win absolute dross Bumpers early doors don't they??

That was probably as good an excuse as any for Willie wanting to preserve both horses’ perfect records.
 
I’m convinced Enola will turn out to be Willie’s main dart this year. She looks a right sort. Bookies wise enough to her tho.
