What does everyone think about this competition? Easy £25 and £50 so far

Is it going to continue up and up in value each week?

Missed the £5 reward on course to reach the £10 reward.

Well worth the effort and a decent incentive as long as BF put up a reasonable target.

Betfair Points explained

You earn Betfair Points for every bet you place on the Exchange, Multiples or Tote. In Reward Chest, these points are converted to Reward Chest points which can earn you free bet credits.

Unlike a regular bookmaker, we recognise your wins and your losses. We take commission from winning bets only, but give you an implied commission from any losing bet as well.

To calculate how many points you earn in a bet, follow these steps:
- Multiply your commission rate (average is 5%, so 0.05) by your net winnings or losses in a market.
- You earn 1 Betfair Point for every 10pence paid in commission or implied commission.

Winning Example 1 Place a winning £10 bet at odds of 3.0, giving you net winnings of £20. If your commission rate is 5% you will pay £1 in commission on this bet, earning you 10 Betfair Points.

Losing Example 2 Place a losing £10 bet at odds of 3.0, giving you net losses of £10. If your commission rate is 5% your implied commission is £0.50, earning you 5 Betfair Points.

need to average £230 gross per day for the next 10 days to win some sort of speaker thingy.  somehow i don't think it will be the focus of my trading.

lybertyne i thought that was just a random prize draw? the prizes part?
By:

When: 05 Mar 12 10:53
there was a picture of a speaker and a bar saying how many points i have, how many i need and how many days.  never mind, i think it's aimed more at people who lose on here; give them some incentive to keep going.

without going into detail, you haven't gave all necessary information as you've left your bank balance out of it but you'd have to have hit some pretty high odds winners to get that many points from only betting £45
By:

barky i think they are all calculated specifically for everyone using some stat system by betfair which makes the odds slightly against your usual betting routines trying to encourage more activity from you, more bets or higher risks = more profit for them.

the reward system is varied on individuals and their betting patterns, obviously to get people to bet more as you get points for winning and losing!

Its not giving away loads of money or prizes yet, but still its better than nothing and 75.00 for carrying on as normal!

It's complicated beyond belief
I've tried and tried for years to understand avoid decay book holidays it's madness.  How you ever get a free bet I would never know as anyone ever actually had a free bet?
I  bet a couple of grand a week and I've never had a penny win or lose

Who knows.... However, i've deposited, £30 in 7 days,  & was given a free £25 because i called them & said i never been given a penny from you guys in 3 years, do you want me to delete my account this was at 3am in the morning and the guy on the telephone gave me £25 free, & i've sent 10+ emails  regrading this issue not having a penny in 3 years & they all refused me any bonuses,

BET365
I've play tho well over - £25,000+ this year & only withdrawn £750 & deposited £4,000 & They given me £2,900+ on bonuses, i been a member 6 month,

It all depends on who you are ect... its strange..

lol what's the relevance of the £30 deposit in 7 days if you've been here for 3 years?

a few minutes ago you said you'd placed bets around £45 and withdrawn £30...

Think I need to hire Columbo to come sense of your statements because they baffle me Crazy

Thats what i have deposited, from clicking the chest link for the first time until now,
By:

When: 05 Mar 12 11:52
and 3 years was because i not been given a penny in 3 years so i sent 10+ emails all refused bonuses, i called at 3 in the morning, explained everything and got £25 free. so i was saying it depends on the person & there betting, deposit pattens ect...on how and when they get bonuses.

It's a joke! If you hardly ever bet, then you get a tiny target of 100 points or so. If you bet daily, then your target is ludicrously high - mine is thousands of points for a £10. So much for rewarding your loyal customers, BF!
