We have spare tickets to Cheltenham!! (oh and you can win yourself a racehorse)

richrichies_errandboy

WEVE NO WHERE TO KEEP ONE

I WOULDNT LIKE TO SEND IT TO A FOSTER STABLE ,ITS NOT FAIR ON THE HORSE,

"The first one is that we have a couple of tickets to Cheltenham knocking around, unfortunately we’re not allowed to go (work eh..pft) so we’re offering them to you guys to win."

Why do they make the tickets sound like cast offs?

Dont worry Do wah.. we wont expect your to squeeze it into your house.

The horses are already at a professional stable, and will be kept there - you will have the chance to visit it, attend its races, and if you're lucky collect your share of its race profits..

Would the horse winnings be subject to a premium charge if the customer was a premium charge player?.....

WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE SELLING STAKES PRIZE MONEY DO WE KEEP???????

Last year 'Betfair Poker' tantalised us with a trip to a beer festival for best caption provider.  No notification or announcement of a winner despite several promptings. Pesky customers!

This year, a hoss (pictured below).



Next year, choice of a trip to the moon OR night with Nicole Scherzinger.

An utter disgrace that you're trying to encourage punters onto a poker platform that does not work.

You have serious issues with your poker site, and when it is brought to your attention you just deny everything. Time and time again.

Luring punters in this way smacks of desperation.

Dreadful. Just dreadful.

that is a real user name btw

ozy :)

An absolute joke of a site..

Why would any punter want to "play" with Betfair..

Anonlooker

2 tickets to the tatts?

The above username is already taken please select an alternative

So who won the caption contest that was well advertised on here - I am sure Betfair Poker can find out and tell us all seeing as it's replying to Do Wah

Re the previous caption competition, we had several threads open for this across several of the forums, as well as a competition on our Team Betfair page - those who won were contacted and invited - i guarantee you that, just check out the pictures on the page messy times.

The two winners for the Cheltenham tickets will be announced here tomorrow & those who win our MTT's, we'll make sure they get a selfie with their horse and post it up here for you :)

Guarantees are over rated and over used on here

Bitter ....just bitter

^ that's a guarantee !

Bit early Virg;... but if you insist !   

Hic

Remind us of the caption winning entries so, Betfair Poker.

The threads were left up for about a month after the event, on several forums, with many people asking who won...only to be ignored.

Its amazing how an effort designed to promote your site could have the polar opposite effect.  Otherwise known as 'Doing a Ratner'.

What part of guaranteed do you have a problem with

Team Betfair

^ still bitter

Regarding the "just check out the pictures" - without disclosing personal names etc, surely it was a simple enough task to name the forumite name who won and with what caption on these several threads.

Maybe this can be done now, just to show that it wasn't a few employees and mates having a jolly up?

It would then GUARANTEE no bitterness from all of the conspiracy theorists on here - not me obviously as I will actually guarantee that I'm not one of those....

Thanks BF Poker

So you're saying you had several threads open, and left open, with no information of when the competition closed, when a winner had been decided and secretly contacted - oh and no subsequent posting of the winner or winning entry?

It's a bit like running goal of the month on Match of the Day, and not showing the winning goal.

We want the money shot

All these Betfair offers are counter productive leaving the vast majority of their customers feeling undervalued and not wanting to participate in these pathetic competitions.
Betfair should consider whether they have the right minds involved in these promotions and consider whether they would be best employed in childrens recreation.

A prime example is the cash race which replaced the old treasure chest.

Granted my turnover per month would only average a grand or so and mostly in multipples it seems strange that I have yet to get half the points to even get to first base of £6.
On the old regular treasure chest it was always an easy £20-£40 which was much a appreciated and left a nice taste in your mouth.

I think Betfair should rethink their strategy with perhaps more adult minds who are less insulting and realise that pettyness is a very costly practice even in the short term but most certainly in the long run.

Betfair is still a great place to use but with each passing month it becomes more questionable and that is an unforgivable failing in those that should know better and probably are paid very handsomely to do so.

Congratulations to our winners

The sheer arrogance of this 'Betfair Poker' individual to brazenly ignore all points raised on thread regarding the Beer Festival fiasco.

He's having a

BREW ON

would have changed it to something funny but having searched how to i've realised it involves sending you an email which might give you extra work to do and pi$$ you off thus making the whole exercise pointless for all involved.

Terrific effort.  And great to see the prize going to someone who regularly contributes to and helps build the community.

My sides are killing me

Why have the winners of these tickets been named yet nothing from the previous caption contest?

Come on BF Poker - let us have the caption and winner of the previous competition.....

Easy enough to have a Betfair Tab on the left which could have all the announcements from Betfair service issues / in play issues / competitions / promotions etc etc  duplicated for all to see whatever forum you are in
