Would any business, stagnating or even losing customers/market share bring in a 'new' charge to the benefit of its remaining customers? or, try and eke more profitability out of the pot and claim its doing its customers a favour. I admit, I have a suspicious, cynical mind, but I haven't forgotten the cross matching ald yet! Do you think they will be honest enough when the Forum Q/A starts on this subject? |

Pythia`s silence is deafening ,stiched up like a kipper at BF Towers is my guess.

Do you mean he's 21 noodles or is he officially 84?

Seems a lot of new payers this last month. Surley the 0.5% has been breached or will be soon. The numbers were increasing by a few hundred a month regardless of these changes.

Will be paying it for the 1st time tomorrow. Under the old method i was 26.66% total charges with a full £1000 allowance remaining. As i posted on another thread, i was £900 down after Monday last week and took 4 days to claw back to being level again and went on to register a £700 profit for the week. I placed 57 bets after being £900 down and i assumed such a rollercoster week would mean premium charge would be avoided but their ridiculous commission generated calculation came to just 10.02% for the week.

Pythia the king of spin. Truly pathetic.

What has he been banned for ? Can`t be bullshi*ting as the place would be empty.

Gone skint, perhaps.

Pythia last seen running aimlessly around a darkened room, full of smoke and mirrors, desperately attempting to find an open door.
|
|
By:
Either stupid or dishonest imo
|
|
By:
Or naive as in believing every word from the management.
|
|
By:
He tells us he is part of the management. Head of Horse Racing I believe. Scary!!
|
|
By:
OK if that is correct , we can rule out the naive option.
|
|
By:
Any sightings?
|
|
By:
He did say he was going to check this thread out on Monday morning. 30 minutes to see if he meant this Monday morning I guess.
|
|
By:
Isn't he standing by the API server in case it needs a reboot?
|
|
By:
I'm led to believe Pythia found the Premium Charge increasingly difficult to justify and left the company to pursue a less stressful career. He recently secured the position of Sir Fred Goodwin's public relations officer.

Last seen polishing Fecks shoes.

I noticed you were back so bumped this in case your people on the case had forgotten about it
Pythia 10 Apr 19:01 Have the bookies just pulled off the most brazen scalping of punters we've ever seen with their returned SPs. With margins around the 130% mark fifteen or 20 minutes before the off time, prices were consistently clipped with an eventual over round of 155% being returned. This is the worst return for National punters I have seen. Here are the stats for this decade: 2000 - 138% 2001 - 142% 2002 - 143% 2003 - 143% 2004 - 133% 2005 - 139% 2006 - 147% 2007 - 152% 2008 - 146% 2009 - 146% 2010 - 155% And the reps have the audacity to claim what a desperate race it was for their firms. |

By:
Just for the sake of openness, I personally have paid less (in fact it may even be zero), but it's nothing to do with the change in charges that's allowed me to do this, merely a change in strategy.
|
|
By:
I'm pleased he is back again. He's gonna feel a bit daft when he realises he keeps just missing this fred though.
|
|
By:
Also, when you check on Monday (as per Oct 10th post) could you also ask them why some people are being incorrectly overcharged (as per Joel's thread and Clydebank's comments therein)
Thanks for your investigations. |
|
By:
That national SP will be worse next year if BOG is still around. IMO.
|
|
By:
He must have been waiting for the new fancy forum I reckons.

How's it looking?

Just a reminder, I realise these things can take a while.
|

By:
ah, the return of an old favourite. I wonder who pythia posts as now?
fwiw, the changed system has proved to be much better (well, less egregious) than the original one imo. you can now effectively rebuild an allowance, whereas previously the same activity would have gone towards effectively clearing a debt you didn't realise you'd run up. |
|
By:
I think he still posts as Feck.
|
|
By:
When you get around to this, could you also ask them about the site crashes?
Cheers |

TTT as Pythia is around again.
