My account statement shows +£850 over the last 3 months, (probably comprised of somewhere in the region of 3850 wins and £3000 of losses)
I heard that if your account statement shows +5k or more in the last 3 months then you should start to worry, or look to a new exchange (which is what I intend to should betfair have the audacity to demand 20% of my profits)

No idea what my magic percentage is. They are so stupid because I am only a recreational customer. If they ask me to pay it I will leave simple. I would hate to hold shares in Betfair. They cant put a foot right these days and their long term future looks shakey to say the least.

On the figures you have given you are safe for a long while yet.

  Premium Charge isn't based on last 3 months or any other time period than your life time on here.  If you had that win/loss ratio over your life time, you would have to pay the charge.

it used to be around 7-15k of winnings before the charge came into effect

Paying the PC might not be seen as something to
worry about, more like a dream, a bit like paying
the top rate of income tax, you have to be earning
it to pay it.

kenilworth, there is some truth in your statement if one is a very good trader that have few losing markets, but PC can be disastrous to a position taker.

Eddie, I agree entirely. I am a position taker and make a
modest profit, most of it taken by commission, something
good traders compensate BF with a PC charge.
