They can't void a bet if they took it, unless palpable.

so you are not the original pencil man who was a convicted con man ?

Not true kenny, if you are an X certificate punter they will void anything win or lose. Making winners void is not uncommon practice.

I agree mate...noir not the dealer

1. They are allowed to refuse all or part of any bet offered to them.

2. As far as I'm aware, they are not breaking any laws by doing this as long as they are not visible to the public.

3. Email me the details and I'm confident I will get you your winnings for the bet they accepted from you.

Corals have done it to me, when you are monitored and have restrictions and a bet is taken beyond what they want it gets referred to security/loss prevention and they say bet is void and I'm barred for life Laugh

If fredbet have specifically told you you're not welcome and you placed the bet then fair do's

If they aint then how can they refuse payment?
Report kenny mann May 29, 2015 12:10 PM BST
really, Slippy, well if you do sneak one on it would obviously make sense to pick the winnings up in a strange city.

Paul,a friend,and no it isn't me,has a case pending with IBAS over a Cheltenham bet from one of the big4.Time goes by,and no word for a month,only an acknowledgement.The next step I suggested is small claims court,and I well represent my friend,no solicitor required,as I am fully aware of the rules.
Report kenny mann May 29, 2015 12:24 PM BST
So if you sneak a bet on at a place you're barred from betting, an unscrupulous person could either pick the winnings up elsewhere, or go for their money back if the horse loses!

@unbiased - IBAS communication is woeful to say the least.

Small Claims Court action is inexpensive, and effective in persuading bookmakers to pay up.

It usually results in full settlement after 14 days on cases I've been involved with.

If your friend wants any help or advice on going down this route, I'm happy to oblige.

I thought once you went to IBAS you had to abide by their decision.
Report parispike May 29, 2015 1:36 PM BST
IBAS might think they are above the law of the land but they aren't!
Report Paul Haigh - Total Respect May 29, 2015 2:43 PM BST
@mmmalushka - Operators registered with IBAS have to abide by their rulings on those rare occasions where they rule in favour of the punter.

If IBAS rule against the punter, there is nothing to stop him commencing legal action.

I only wish more people understood this.
