Another ridiculous promotion from Betfair, to reach my prize I have worked out I have worked out that over 15 days or whatever it is, I have got to have over £107k in net market wins and losses. My prize is a fiver. Not being funny but what is the point?

I love these - they're comedy gold. last time I needed to bet the price of a small house to win a tiny novelty fridge, worth £5.99.
got a link? |

...never mind, found it.
Target 1 £25 - 9525 Days left - 12 Your points - 1  |

I only need 47,775 points in 12 days to get a fiver.
"Betfair's most generous free bet and prize giveaway ever!"  |

Don't think I've ever had anything from these 'generous' offers. I've 250 points and only need another 12,775 and I'll pick up a tenner

You lot must bet an awful lot to have such big targets. Mine is 2405. Which bookmakers do you use that take a bet apart from Pinnacle, SBO, 188 and greek?

Doesn't make sense for anyone to do all their betting via betfair these days, Investor, as I'm sure you're aware.

I don't know how but I have made my 7365 target for £100 with a week to spare! HUZZAH!
|

By:
I'll be lucky to reach 1/10 of my target points. Which is weird, because I haven't changed my level of betting recently. Betfair normally pick these promotion targets so that you get little or nothing if you continue to bet as normal, but you have a chance of getting a prize if you increase your betting by a fair amount. But do they really think I'm going to bet 10x as much on here in order to get their £100 bonus?

basically these things aren't really aimed at heavy users. it's just unfortunate that they generate targets that are so laughable.

I still want my Betfair diary :)
The reward chest points counter seems very broken. I just went to the page this morning and I now have almost ten times the points that I had yesterday. Are Betfair making these point counts up? My points will have to double again to reach the target though. |

40100 points for a £5 "fee bet" ....... I reckon about £100,000 of turnover, you couldnt make it up!!! Priceless

I need to lose my entire betfair balance just twice to claim my fiver.
that 2 less times than i normally manage. whats the catch? |
|
By:
Well TTS, that's nice. If you double your bank and then do a full bank job and lose, rest assured that you won't be completely broke!

So i completed the points target and now they have reset it.
So you have to start all over again? So am i right in thinking they won't pay out? |
|
By:
according to the bloke on the telephone sir bond the free money goes in your account by wednesday. And the new rewards chest is a totally different offer . Hope that helps u out mate
|
|
By:
I wonder how many people have lost out on the offer due to Betfair not crediting points on Australian markets recently?
|
|
By:
same here sir_b. fluke week of results meant I hit the £25 target with two hours to go - then when I looked it had been reset to 0 and I had 10,000 points to go.
not massively bothered for 25 quid, but it would probably be a good move for them to make it clear they're gonna pay out on the original offer and haven't just moved the goalposts. |
|
By:
Two cross-market arbs and I hit my target, but where is my £25? Typical bf failure of communication.
|

By:
check again askari - think they've just been credited in the last few minutes.

They could quite easily make up the names for the daily prizes though.
