I got the same email, no idea what it's about.
|
By:
yeah same - are you on 2%?
|
By:
|
By:
I'm on 2%, nowhere near to incurring charges.
|
By:
2% for me, not running good for last year, my best time is april/may which didn't happen this year.
|
By:
Thanks Dave. Just wondering if they are targeting marginal winners like myself or a new across the board rate. Matchb**k uk operation is running again and
purple have been doing commision free saturdays lately so I would be surprised and dissapointed if BF up their commision. |
By:
Increasing the commission rate is the only thing I can think of.
|
By:
Nothing received here, yet.
|
By:
Nothing received here either. Regardless, I'll want to remain on 2% otherwise decamp elsewhere, if necessary.
|
By:
This is a bit worrying - looks like a commission increase to me as there is nothing else to change.
Betfair reserves the right to: Change the benefits listed in any package.

At the end of the notice period, the relevant package(s) will automatically end on the last day of the then current month; |
By:
Wish I could take a 2% commission instead of ****g €1 free bets.
|
By:
@Gaze733 - why don't you?
|
By:
I should imagine they are just changing the wording of the basic package
I'm sure I had similar email before |
By:
Has anyone won on BEAT THE DROP cos i have got 10 correct so far and wanted to know the best way to play it from now
|
By:
Anyone please ???
|
By:
Ok i take it no one has won on here ? Good Night Then
|
By:
@longbridge It's not offered outside of UK/Ire I guess.
|
By:
Got the same email, on the 2% if they increase it I am off to try BETquack or watch Book and give them a try.
|
By:
Same here--totally baffled but commission increase was not something that crossed my mind.
|
By:
Same here yesterday
Up to now they haven't been enforcing BOG restriction on SB with 2% Tried it yesterday and only got SP So maybe tightening the offer ? Or ... as said the 2% will be going in future - just reminding everyone of 7 days notice required |
By:
Nope
BOG relaxed again |
By:
When they first offered it to me (before the launch for everyone) they might have thought that I would eventually be paying PC and I would get there quicker (even with the quirk of their deemed charges), but I've basically plateaued for year, in part by trying some marginal strategies, so the have def had more liquidity from me over the period but maybe not from everyone.
|
By:
It would be helpful to know if anyone on 5% or 8% has recieved this email.
|
By:
I'm currently on the 5% package (but have changed/selected my package back to the basic 2% one from 1st Oct ) * decided to change back the basic package because the only promotion I was getting was the Beat The Drop game (which was crap) but when they pulled the Cash Race promotion I decided to go back to the 2% package. I received the same e.mail from them on Monday but don't really know what it actually means?? I'm also a regular 40 % PC payer so really not sure what they are going to do ??
|
By:
thanks TRICKYTREES.
The email states "The value of your bonuses in my befair rewards will be changing next month" IMO there will be changes to bonuses in 5% and 8% and no change to 2%. |

They are a "technology" company (apparently!) with a MASSIVE Market Capitalisation Value - Shirley any second now the Head Of Customer Communications (Lucan?) will make a detailed and comprehensive statement which will also be posted in the Service Forum (imo).
|
By:
likely you're not generating them enough comms, so looks as though they intend to switch the % on certain accounts to make your account profitable (to them)
|
By:
Thanks JML Let's hope that's the case then (fingers crossed)
|
By:
if you'vr rreceived an email i'd be thinking that's your 7 days notice, people not receiving an email won't be changing, i'd check your account nect week and see what they've altered
|
By:
"We have made these changes to adjust your REWARDS in line with your recent activity on Betfair"
At the moment you can get two customers on 5% with one betting 50 times as much as the other and they both get £25 monthly free bet. |
By:
Ask them on twitter. Most likely get an answer on there
|
By:
whether it's the freebies or the %, if you get an email it's probable something on your account will change
|
By:
There are no rewards on 2%, its just that, 2% no frills.
How can they change nothing? If you pay PC then they get their crust either way by raiding your account every wednesday. |
By:
I've been sent the same email, I do hope I don't get pushed onto 8%. Although I'm not far off paying PC.
|
By:
when these new packages came in they changed the t&cs to give them the ability to do individual account targeting, so it would probably be the case that those getting emails have something in common, whether that's their style of betting or trading, level of profit/loss etc, but i'd be pretty sure this isn't just a random email
|
By:
Got this email and wondering if im going to lose 2% commission?
|
By:
Asked them on twitter:
'This would actually only be relevant to the bonuses for the other plans. The commission rates are to stay the same.' |
By:
been on 2% since they first started the packages, can't see if anything to do with winning or losing, my accounts 8k down down last 3 months and prob 20k down last year
