I stopped betting on greyhounds on betfair weeks ago due to betfair failure to get the correct runners in races and betting carrying on into the race off time, I was turning over 1000s weekly sometimes nightly these betfair mistakes cost me £500 in 2 bets i had.I have now gone to **** and  also place virtualy all my other sports bets on there now as that's where my money is now. To my AMAZEMENT there were still races go in off last night with non runners still in the betting on betfair SHAME on you you have lost me as a customer and will continue to loose other customers .

it must be a year or more since me wonders and dr were exchanging views on betting and i was at the position where it was Betfair only for me......larger stakes for worse odds...(sometimes).....if i want to be on...….it looks like many others are heading towards the same position but things have not really altered for me so im not sure its finished.....just different.....and not for the better...….......im still able to have a bet....still staying the right side of being potless….but the betfair situation is getting proper fecked up with their none management of markets......i don't know whats happening there and they need to sort it out......

I got new phone sparrow. Changed password. It was fine for 3 or 4 days. The night I wanted to av decent bet on 1 spent half the night trying to log on and on phone to them. The don't give a fack. Can't be arsed all fack in about with wrong dogs in markets wen u want to play. Place is a joke.wen ur only a minority sport they don't bother. Look at world cup final weren't even kick of over 38 million matched. Hardly gona be arsed for couple of grand at bags meeting.

dogs are a great betting medium but only if the race replays are available to all, am i right in thinking there is no video archive for all uk races? with RP doing a few with too many gaps?

all betfair need is cricket and football take fortunes on them

private, if you managed to speak to them on the phone they should have taken your bets there and then at betfair SP.

I couldn't, go back to betting shop prices. I,d rather go to the Forth road bridge n chuck myself off.

Sounds like a really frustrating day private. I've often changed my password and not had a problem at all.

its way down on their list of priorities ph...like you say 38 million traded on the world cup final, who gives a feck about peanuts traded on a dog race

For security reason private no way betfair can log you on

I guess you probably made a mistake with your pw and bf sent you an email to crate a new one

Seems reason to me apart from the 48 hr bit

May say an hr to two hrs tops

The integrity of the game is now non existent.
Its the same in horse racing.
Went to galway after the plate on wednesday
All the older patrons agree the game is bent.
At the races ruby was accused of jumping off of one that a bookmaker friend owned.
Was told not to back more horses than ever before.
At the dogs the tractor was out on one race , off fortwo, back for two and so on
The influence of bookmakers has a direct negative linear relationship to the integrity of both sports.
It is killing both sports and needs greater government control

Its disgusting
In  a so called sophisticated country two sports .....yes sports..... Have been infiltrated by big business , overtaken and raped by bookmakers.
Why dont the authorities clamp down on them.
Trainers, owners and punters need to re establish their foothold on these sports

When they are done racing and the profits dry up they will turn their attentions to another facet ofthe economy or another sport.... In this greedy quest for profit
Report Winja August 5, 2018 2:00 PM BST
things change case...…..it just happening quicker than we would like...…..but lets be honest......without bookmakers would we really just go racing to see dogs race each other......i have done that on occasion but would never go regularly if no betting......its all a consequence of weak leadership......they do not understand the value of the product.....just happy for the payments without any vision for the future........
