Would be lovely to know how much money I have in my account before the darts starts.

They took double PC last week, and decided no deductions this week as a kind of christmas box.

Two phonecalls and 5.5 hours later and they still haven't worked out the PC for last week.

Finally arrived. Incredible how hard it's been to find out how much they'd like me to pay them.

They've still not updated the portal online. I think I'd call it contemptuous, the behaviour towards PC payers that is.

I'm amazed that the portal updating process isn't automated, or I would be if it wasn't Betfair we were talking about.

I'm sure it is deeply frustrating but shouldn't you people count yourself lucky that you are able to use the Betfair website to make money in the first place?

Irrespective of whether or not we're profitable on here, we're all customers who pay to use Betfair.

As a customer I expect a certain level of service, just as I do with the other companies I use.

That Betfair regularly fails to deliver that level of service betrays the fact that they don't value all their customers equally, and that generally they don't value their customers as much as they should. This will ultimately be the downfall of the company.

This is probably born as much out of complacency as anything - a monopolised mareket place will never provide the best value / service to customers. That is exactly what we have here in the world of betting exchanges - but I'm sure it won't last forever.

dunno - should they count themselves lucky that I pump money into dead markets so people can play them here rather than at traditional bookies?

Have you people no heart?  Betfair staff have doubtless spent the Bank Holiday in the warm bosoms of their families, finishing off the turkeys your PC payments funded.  Would you Scrooges really have them tearing themselves away from their loved ones to traipse off to Hammersmith and turn their minds once more to the sordid commercial realities of the Premium Charge?  I think not.

Do you guys still request the email version to be sent? I have requested this and just about every week lately I don't get it and when i ask I told they will ensure that I get it from now on....

I tend to ask for the emails in chunks Joel, I used to ask every week but they ground me down over time.

On the upside for them they get fewer requests from me, on the downside some of them are huge.

So frustrating Cry

Can it be hard? It's bad enough having to wait at all - didn't they promise us a rolling tool 18-24 months ago where we could keep track in "my account" ?

To be fair to them, the delay this week can probably be explained or at least excused by the large upgrade that took place tonight.
By:
Lori
When: 10 Jan 12 13:44
Agree with that, but then they knew they were doing it so could have hit the button yesterday.

That's my real gripe - that they apparently make it awkward. If it really is that difficult then an explanation would ease it a little.

this and the australian "my markets" fiasco epitomise what's wrong with betfair, imo.

stuff that should be really easy to fix going undone forever because they can't be bothered and don't listen to their customers.

Just interested, what do you guys actually check the portal for? My usage has changed over time ...

When it first launched, I originally checked it to confirm my own calcs (it's easy enough to work out), level of trust being what it was at the time.

But then as the calcs did match over time I gave up doing my own calcs and used it as a weekly "surprise", oh how much fun that was.

And now, since the introduction of PC2 (or PC3 dependent on your viewpoint), I'm back to doing my own calcs and using the portal to verify as they've gone and buggerd up the Other Charges/Premium Charges Paid on the lifetime side and it becomes important with the new different bandings.

I use it to verify my own calculations.

Strangely, the amount always differs by a few pence.
By:

I estimate PC from total profit/loss and commission points for that week (admittedly a rather rough method), and then compare my estimate with the amount stated on the portal.
