perhaps while the wheel is in motion perhaps chesterbet could be asked for a fee for using racecourse bookmakers prices.

It would seem that it has not been appreciated that chesterbet can actually charge more than SP less than 10% at their own discretion.The rules state that other advertised deductions can be charged.On course bookmakers have to adhere strictly to the Gambling Commission's requirement to display clearly and prominately their terms of trade but it would appear that the racecourse is not obliged to adhere to this requirement and so they are able to rip off their customers.Come on GC do something about this outrage.

By:
was unaware of that chatto as you say come on gc do something about this outrage.
|
|
By:
It is outrageous. A bookmaker is a bookmaker. Rules cannot apply to one and not the other.

Factmachine tends to be the scourge master of what he considers to be outrageous behaviour in our sport so what does he think about Chesterbet

Foxy, is there any way the Chester books can display the rip off terms of Chesterbet, thereby making the public aware they're being shafted? :)

That should have said Foxy/Wasnot! :)

Re the tracker. Who's going to ban it ? I can't be the racecourse because that would, I'm sure, fail competition law as the racecourse is also providing betting facilities with Britbet.

The racecourses will do exactly as they please until they get challenged IanP. What is going on at Chester is a disgrace but until they are challenged and told they can't do whatever they like it will carry on and on and get worse and worse.

By:
. All bets on
UK and Irish horse racing are settled at ‘racecourse price’ returns. The racecourse price (RP) is calculated by taking the industry wide Starting Price, less a maximum 10% facility fee. On specific days, or individual races, this facility fee may vary Taken from Chesterbet rules So basically they can impose any deduction they wish |

All racecourse bookmakers have to adhere to the GC rules concerning fairness and transparency of our terms of trade which we are all in agreement with.However Chesterbet which is operating as a bookmaker fail to adhere to the fundamental principles of the GC in several respects.Firstly their rules are displayed in very small print and secondly they can change their deductions at any time and their own discretion.We can all help our cause by contacting the GC and asking why Chesterbet is allowed to operate under different rules to other bookmakers. We need to ask the CEO why this allowed.If you address the letters'private and confidential'they have more chance of reaching him/her.It would also be useful if the letters were copied in to your MP.Each and everyone can contribute to the cause by drafting this question in their own words and sent asap.In this way Wasnot et al can have a success in making the GC aware of this practice which unless challenged will be adopted by other racecourses.My own letters have been sent so please help yourselves and we will be successful.

Would appear that on course bookmakers are not concerned about Chesterbet.The overwhelming number of them only operating in the short run i.e tomorrow rather than looking to long runi.e next year and beyond.

Does Chesterbet pay a Marketing Fee ? The agreement for bookmakers to make this annual contribution to racecourse funds was a disgrace.
