This mob lost 40m last year in their Aussie operation and overall have lost 70m + since setting up in Australia, their turnover is now 1.5billion dollars. They have a fcken turnover of 1.5billion and they are still able to lose, who may I ask is operating this company, we know they don't hang onto winning punters they are quickly shown the door, I gotta say they must have monkeys running the business, surely there must be some talent amongst their 210 staff or does it just go to show that the foreign invaders that have taken over the Australian wagering markets have "no idea" unless they have brought out an existing successful aussie bookie and learnt from the Australian staff in place.

I wouldnt stress about it as it is only sensible for many reasons to show a loss......

"The company is majority owned and run by Denise Coates, the very private entrepreneur who Forbes estimates is worth $US1.6 billion ($1.7 billion)."

Great opportunities for tax benefits and feeding money to related companies......

Millionaire/Billionaire  operators are smarter than you might think!

"who may I ask is operating this company,"

Answer:
Most likely associates and employees of  "Denise Coates, the very private entrepreneur who Forbes estimates is worth $US1.6 billion ($1.7 billion)"

I would assume with highly paid accountants that look at every angle.

Just trying to answer your question ----

Like I suggested: Don't stress about it.....let them cope a loss or engage monkeys ....does it matter?

There is no doubt they are the best if you are smart enough to beat their restrictions. The clues are bet small, never back the same horse twice, even if it shortens, and only do withdrawals when you really need to. If you have a losing run, always top up the account.

If you are good enough to never back a winner with them, then surely you are just better off with a 100% strike rate of laying them on BF?  ConfusedConfused

I concur with Castiron, an undoubted voice of reason. And, if you're specialty is, say, greyhounds, for example, if you take multis, couple them into maybe a shortie at the football...it seems they are less likely to bar anyone cross-betting on codes. Or cross-dressing, as well....

So basically if you turn yourself into a mug punter to keep an account with them, you will probably be able to?

once again you completely misunderstand what someone writes. But can't wait to inform them how much better your own idea is.... 100% laying strike rate on bf is how you learn to pay pc and be happy Laugh

You seem a very bitter man.  Unsure what your point is.  You directed a post at me, which I replied to in confusion about your point, and then you are calling me out for responding?

I hope things pick up for you as clearly something isn't right.
