He should really have stipulated "AC Milan" but if the coupon describes Inter Milan as Internationaze i.e. no "Milan" at all in team name, he should have a good case.

Paul Haigh would probably take it on.

Put it this way ... if Inter had won, there's not a chance they would have paid him anything.  They would argue "Coupon says Internationalize not Inter Milan".

This is  ignorance from a firm that makes a living from sport.
He put A C Milan on that slip for me but he is lucky he got a return.
I hope none of you write Spurs on your slips  from now on.

Squire Danaher no such team called Glasgow Rangers or Glasgow Celtic.

Cashier---"can I put this on a coupon for you,it is much easier to do,just put a small line against selections"
Customer--"I have always done my bets like this,don't know how to do it on a coupon"
Cashier----"No problem,I will do it for you and you can see how easy it is.Hello,you put Milan in,which Milan did you mean,Inter or AC?"
Customer---"AC"
Had he used a coupon as most of us do,and could have asked for help if unsure,then problem solved.Can't blame anyone but himself.
Not one for Paul,no point.

Jasey, writing Spurs on betting slip is 100% obvious. Writing "Milan" isn't.

It was the old boys error, and one he'll from.

And since when did we use the word "janitor"?

The only thing that counts here is what teams were playing at the weekend according to Fred, as published on his coupon.

There was a team called AC Milan playing and a team called Internationalze playing.  Only one team was playing that was called Milan.

His website says Inter Milan Vs Palermo for the weekend.

Don't know where you got that from?  Clearly says Internazionale v Palermo on betting coupon.

I don't have last weekend's coupon.

I have current midweek & weekend coupons.

Both have written; AC Milan, Inter Milan.

I was going on the website.  Didn't realise they name teams differently on shop coupons.

I think I went on the Goals Galore coupon.
By:

When: 03 Mar 16 18:18
Yeah, Inter Milan on Goals Galore coupon, Internazionale on 1x2 coupon.  Depends what it says on shop coupon, haven't set foot in baldie shop for ages.

The bet was settled correctly given there are two teams in "Milan"
By:
jed.davison
When: 03 Mar 16 18:41
Settled correctly? Only one of these teams is called Milan - AC Milan. Internazionale di Milano are called Internazionale di Milano. Even in Italian, Milan are called Milan, not Milano. The bald one is trying it on again.

I can't believe people are taking the side of the baldprick on this? One team is called Milan & the otheris called Internazionale as Jed has rightly pointed out. I'm sure if the punter had meant Inter Milan, he wouldn't have just wrote Milan.

People are taking Bfred's side because that is what they believe to be correct
and I agree with them.

But even then the amount paid should be more than 50% of what was expected.
This is because there was one winning 5 fold that didn't include Milan.

Fuss about nowt, write bets properly and avoid problems, simple innit. He won't make the same mistake again.

As I've stated above, bookmakers don't like punters having two chances and paying for one bet !


Much as I despise Bald Fred, in this instance the settlement is correct !

the bet should hve been settled as follows
5x50p losing 5 folds
1x50p losing 6 fold

1x1pound winning 5 fold
5x50p winning 5 folds
1x50p winning 6 fold

if he was expecting 530 he should have received more than the 50% of 265

put the prices up
