Betting refunds similar to PPI

How about wrongly settled bets? Must be thousands every week. I have at least one a week, and if they go in your favor and nobody challenges it, it remains wrongly settled.

I still think Bookies should not be allowed to restrict or ban you unless your doing something illegal, if they don't like you Matched betting then simply stop offering free bets, the fact I can win a lot of money through Arbing, simply because I can take a price they are offering quicker than they can change it, is their fault surely,I would love to know if it's possible to take them to court over it, sadly I am not rich enough to hire a Lawyer to find out.

No need for a lawyer, they can run their business in any way they choose bar the GC bull.

milo222 may have a problem depositing any funds if betfair see this post  :)

This has already been tried in court and was thrown out
even though guy had self excluded.

My nephew still gets free bets off a bookie, which worries me.

William Hill were found to have failed in their duty of care to Calvert. The judge also remarked upon "significant structural weakness in William Hill's internal arrangements."

However, Calvert's claim for the £2,052,972.18 he lost was thrown out on the grounds that he would have ruined himself via another bookmaker. He had continued to gamble with other companies even while his William Hill accounts were closed.

An additional personal injury claim for damages also failed.



Calvert was gaoled for two years in October 2008 on firearms and drugs charges.
