No me neither. On my account, at the very least, any loss always takes me back over 20% threshold anyway.

The amount of misinformation on this thread really is quite staggering.

NO - if you lose 500 one week and win one week you pay pc on all the 500.

This fundamental error is leading to basic miscalculation,

If you lose 500 one week, THIS TAKES YOU OVER THE 20% THRESHOLD.

Only then when you dip under the 20% threshold do you start paying pc again

THATS WHY ONE WAY OF PAYING LESS PC WAS TO GENERATE MORE COMMISSION

you pay £135 PC

Willie Shafter. • October 1, 2019 11:02 PM BST

Pc @ £1,000 x 20% = £200 - charges £65 = £135 PC.

Has the penny dropped? Feeling a little foolish are we you lot?

On a side note, if i am having to explain this fundamental principle to you in such basic terms it highlights a few things. 

1) You don't pay pc because you would know this anyway.

2) Because you don't pay pc, you're tackling a problem that doesn't, or will never affect you, or in fact is any of your business - spend your time somewhere else ffs and take the 2%.

2)You're willing to offer advice on something you know nothing about - which makes you an attention seeking fool.

3) You're an idiot.

Over a week i have £2000 of wins, and £2000 of losses.I have, however, paid 5% on the £2000 (100)

£100 commission paid + £60 implied commission = £160/2 = £80 commission generated

2nd week - I have £500 of wins, and NO losses.

£500 win , £25 commission paid

no implied commission as no losses = £25/2 = £12.50

betfair want £100 PC ( 20% ) from your £500 win , but you have generated the £80 from  week 1 + £12.50 from week 2 so £80 + £12.50 = £92.50

so betfair will take £7.50 in PC

pabs answered
except you dont pay any cos it comes out of your allowance.

Good grief, tiny are you honestly asking about Implied Commission like its something you've never witnessed?


I have far bigger worries that tiny right now
What willie said has started to make me feel queezy
That cant be right, if they do that the exchange is over
Technically I think it would be possible by just axing the lifetime of everyones account....but I think its still very very unlikely

Waiting for willie to confirm

Ive gone, you're all idiots - i will leave you with this -

Premium Charge Summary

You will only be considered for the Premium Charge if, over the lifetime of your account, you satisfy the following criteria:

    Your account is in profit;
    Your total charges generated are less than 20%† of gross profits; and
    You bet in more than 250 markets.

Two further conditions reduce the likelihood that you will be required to pay the Premium Charge:

    Any single win that constitutes more than 50% of your gross profits over the lifetime of your account will be excluded from the calculation; and
    Each customer will have a lifetime allowance of £1,000 against the Premium Charge.

Each week the customers who meet all the conditions set out above will be charged the lesser of:

    The difference between 20%† of the previous week’s gross profits and the total charges generated during the week; and
    The difference between 20%† of gross profits and the total charges generated during the lifetime of the account.

Examples

    Example 1
    You have won gross profits of £10,000 since joining Betfair having bet in 800 markets.
    You have paid total charges of £980; all of which has been paid through commission generated.
    You have not been charged any Premium Charges to date although you have fully used up your allowance of £1,000.
    During the previous week you won £500 and paid total charges of £80.
    You are therefore charged £20 in Premium Charges ((£500 x 20%) - £80 = £20).

    Example 2 - Charge Allowance
    You have won gross profits of £10,000 since joining Betfair having bet in 320 markets.
    You have generated £1,050 in commission and paid no Premium Charge to date.
    During the previous week you won £500 and paid total charges of £50.
    In the absence of a charge allowance you would have been charged Premium Charges of £50 ((£500 x 20%) - £50 = £50).
    However, the £50 is offset against the £1,000 charge allowance meaning that no additional Premium Charge is paid.
    You then carry over the balance of your charge allowance (£950) to offset against potential future Premium Charges.

    Example 3 – Excluding ‘big’ wins
    You have won gross profits of £8,000 since joining Betfair having bet in 500 markets.
    You have paid total charges of £1,025, all of which has been paid through commission generated.
    During the previous week you won £5,000 from a single market and paid total charges of £125.
    As the win constitutes more than 50% of your total gross profits since joining Betfair, it is excluded for the purposes of calculating the Premium Charge.
    However, the commission generated on the win does contribute towards total charges paid.
    After the win is removed you have gross profits of £3,000 and total charges of £1,025 and therefore incur no additional Premium Charge.

no profit so charges from previous week c/o to portal are £100 and £60 = 160/2 so you have a £80 buffer
next week +500 so charges £12.50 and pc £100..pc shud be 87.50 -80 = 7.50

If bf wangled it to get rid of what willie calls the 'buffer' nobody would risk anything, because a big loss would take months to get back.
