Don't like place betting on here , so had a few e/w punts on the CES. last Saturday.
Had £191 to collect from a fiver e/w on the winner & second.
Went to collect today.
Woman behind the counter couldn't pay me as not enough in the 2 tills & her manager had 'nipped out'.
Said it could be collected at another branch.
Drove to other branch at other end of village.
Because it was over £100 I to wait again as she had to phone first shop to verify.
Hardly asking for 5 grand on the spot is it ?
Adios to High Street bookies for me. It's not the 1970's anymore , the customer does not have to put up with nonsense like this.
Not the staff to blame ,the jokers they work for.

The only shop I use is Ladbrokes. Two of their staff are knowledgeable racing enthusiasts. The others are thick as mince but 2 good employees is 2 more than any other shop I visit.

The one in the centre of Cheltenham.
btfred is on the lower high st and the top of the high st but both shops aren't great. And the Hills by Laddies is a no go area for me. I had a big win on Albertas run in the ryanair last year. Backed at 33/1 4 weeks before the race. I went to collect my winnings and was paid out at SP!  I explained I had taken a price ( which was signed by a member of staff.... it took a good 5 mins of my explaining to get the chimp to understand! I then returned an hour later to be told to come back in 2 days for the money! |

The people in my local Baldies could tell you how to dismantle and assemble a FOBT machine but wouldn't have a scooby about whether cheltenham was a virtual or real racecourse.
