Has your account got to be in profit from the day you opened it to pay this. So if you had lost say £50k in 10 years you then then have to win that back first in order to be eligible for it.

Yes, you would have to win that back first, since it only applies if your account is in lifetime gross profit (and then further conditions apply). So even if you have a very good week, if you have previous large running deficit, you wouldn't be liable.

What Andriy has said is spot on.  Even if you won £50k this week you would not pay any premium charge, as per your example, as you would not have made any 'lifetime' profits, you would just pay Betfairs 5% commission.

hence if you have an account on minus £50k, valuable asset for a PCC payable to have/buy

I'm first in the Q, remember!
