Just noticed an extra £10 in my account

u qualified for the cash race prize? ie u gained enough pts?

there was a betfair promo, based on your betting, you must have hit your target even though you were not watching the promo, think it paid up yesterday

No idea about that, Tony.

Thanks elise and Tony.

Think it might be mine sparrow

Easy mistake to make

Will e mail betfair

might be mine...........

Fair enough Sparrow Hawk.

Yes i got £10 as well. don't know how

my account is £500 down , so thats were its going

I got the whole £70 - mainly because I managed to lose £1000 when trying to win £100

i got it too but didnt make the points - but like dave1537 was on a shocking losing run - they have done this before.

will they be deducting it ? when they realised a mistake - I havent got an e-mail from them

you get points for every £1 you lose as well as win.think it's 10 points

HOW ARE MY BETFAIR POINTS CALCULATED?

You earn Betfair Points for every bet you place on the Exchange or Tote.

Unlike a regular bookmaker, your wins and your losses will be recognised at Betfair. Commission will only be taken from your winning bets, but you will be credited with an implied commission from any bet that doesn’t win as well.

To calculate how many Points you earn in a bet, follow these steps:

Multiply your commission rate (average is 5%, so 0.05) by your net winnings or losses in a market.
You earn 1 Betfair Point for every 10 pence paid in commission or implied commission.
Winning Example 1
Place a winning £10 bet at odds of 3.0, giving you net winnings of £20.

If your commission rate is 5% you will pay £1 in commission on this bet, earning you 10 Betfair Points.

Losing Example 2
Place a losing £10 bet at odds of 3.0, giving you net losses of £10.

If your commission rate is 5% your implied commission is £0.50, earning you 5 Betfair Points.
