... I don't particularly want to log in today because that means I have accepted the above.  Does anyone know what the penalties are for an Inactive Account from today under their NEW Inactive Account policy?

if you've accepted the same t&cs on here years ago why would you have a problem with daq now?

they sent an outline in the email,

We wish to inform you that we will be updating the terms and conditions of the **** website on 29th November 2015. The changes reflect updates to Part 2: 'Becoming a Customer of ****'. A summary of the changes include:

    Paragraph 9: Update to the Inactive Account Policy and the introduction of an Inactive Account Fee.

most people seem to have an issue with the inactive account bit, but most bookmakers and betfair have this in place already

not sure, but im not that bothered, i think the accounts where you have a few quid and forget or a few pence and can't use it were what the bookmakers were going after, the exchanges followed

there was a thread a few years ago something like what would happen if you die and no one knew about your funds and the t&cs of bookmakers now mean they can fritter your funds off over time, the general consensus was somehow you have to leave details in a will etc for your family to recoup

i saw one in the press where a family found out some time later and the bookie refunded the cash they had taken and paid out obv claiming they were unaware of the circumstances
