after nigh on 20 years my time is up on here.I have paid 740 k in commision which includer 4k premium charge which at the timr i never knew i had paid it thats not enough fot betfair i am now right on top of paying 40 per cent on any winnings so now instead of 2 per cent of plenty they now have 40 per cent of nothing.Just such a shame as there are no winners here been forced on to matchbook paying 3 per cent which is ok but the liquidity is poor particularly on dogs where i do most of my gambling.

I concur shiner, I find against my wishes I am increasingly being forced to look elsewhere to place my bets. It is a pity because I like the format of the exchange site, however the non existence of customer service doesn't help either.
I have found I am becoming a fan of smarkets, and they have a customer service as well. |

thanks for the heads up on smarkets and mbook i mainly use accounts /shops or on here as do most i suspect but no harm opening accounts with these 2 for backup !

Personally I prefer smarkets but I think that is because I can't download the matchbook app for some reason, but I find them very professional also.

The lot that bought the exchange could be argued to have done affordability's job for them by disincentivising ambition via equiping anyone who won with a fat arsed BF monkey to carry around on your back.
What is it now...about 14 years and they still say they are looking at a fairer model? They could start by having an annual allowance each year that you can win without paying the private tax. |

thanks slicer and others ,have read some negative comments on these other firms and tended to avoid them and t you can get too comfortable and lazy on here thinking its the only exchange worth playing but good to hear a few firms are there as an option ,will have a look now, as regards lack of liquidity on these sites if plenty of others join up then maybe this lot will get realise they are losing customers .

By:
pretty sure they're one of those firms you
have to send passport and address documents to withdraw your money. |
|
By:
thats what i was hearing ,anyone holding an active account with them please clarify !
|
|
By:
I had to send in identity verification on here, has not every one?
|
|
By:
yes but not every time you want to withdraw winnings
|

By:
