Didn't want to lose this thread with the new Forum platform.
Just a tribute to my son Will who managed to get Betfair to delay the implementation of the 'Matching Algorithm' until it gave the best available odds (almost) and also stopped Betfair from pocketing the difference by starting this thread. |

By:
Yes, that was a revelation. Bad move by Betfair.

Pretty sure you will find that the only markets where the bet matching algorithm is not used are Australian markets. Of course I don't bet on every market BF have available, so there may be other markets where the algorithm is not used. However Australian markets are the only ones I know of that do not have the bet matching algorithm running.
The reason is because the Australian licensers know it is unfair for punters and don't allow BF to run it on Australian markets. |

Guys
Has anyone come across a problem like this: i place a bet and 5 register for the same amount, sometimes i place a bet and the stakes get all messed about with (I'll put £100 on and it registers as £200). I started noticing strange P&Ls on different markets that were way more than I had expected but brushed it off. Then I started checking back and saw that this 'multiplicity' and 'bloating' of my bets had been happening for about 10 days randomly and without real pattern. I've contacted betfair customer services and the answer I got back was 'you must have had multiple windows open. Whilst some bets have gone my way the net result is about £1900 of bets that have been 'corrupted'. It's supposed to be a secure site and this kind of thing is not supposed to happen. Anyone know how I can elevate this and get compensated. I've checked my security software and there's no issues there. |

By:
Yes sadly.
Will's nephew Joseph did the Junior Manchester Run for him and raised money for the Circulation foundation. A tidy amount of which came from Betfairians. |
