Ive been putting bets on in shops for my mate for about last 3 or 4 weeks and havent had a problem getting on until today when i went into a Stan James office and asked for a price for WIZZ KID in saurdays sprint stakes at Ascot and was told 14/1 so i asked if i could have £500 each way at that price? The manager said i"ll have to ring up to find out which isnt a problem as i understand he has to get it verified? He came off the phone and rather embarrassingly said You can have £50 each way and the price is now 11/1? so me being a bit naive said ok i"ll have £50 each way at 14/1 and then go somewhere else to try and get the rest on? He said "No the price is 11/1 now" so can someone please explain to me where the 14/1 that was advertised went? was it non existent?
I walked round the corner and got the full amount on with HILLS at 12/1

Can they cut a price just because someone enquired about it? Without taking any money for it?

A request of £50 E/W would have resulted in no problems at the price (then repeat in different Shops).
You live (and in your case,hopefully) learn. |
