Betfair paid me out £120 winnings from an exchange bet BEFORE the result of the stewards on the 5.38 Pontefract then took back the money 40 minutes later when the result was changed. Why not just wait for the result of the stewards before paying out ? its a no brainer. If i withdrew the £120 i was told my account would be -£120 ie i would have to pay back the money. Surely a rule change is needed here either first past the post or wait for the result of the stewards.

This is the norm. Betfair has been doing it for a long while. I was in a similar position but the amount was £10 only.

they want to settle asap so you can bet again with your winnings, simple as that. a handful of retrospectively reversed results = collateral damage.

If the amount was thousands would they start a court case or could you just close your account and walk away with the money ?

It's been done by a few Matt , owe them say £100 then leave it a while , then deposit £200 and your balance will show as £100.
If anyone makes a withdrawal before the reversal then they wont chase after you but you'd just have to find another bookie. |

Bentrig, it was the race that jessica won with a three year old in a 2 year old race , it wasnt voided .
https://www.racingpost.com/news/reports/galway-winner-disqualified-with-stewards-unable-to-positively-identify-horse-axG830I9oRTO/ Jessica Harrington has apologised after she 'won' the two-year-old fillies' maiden (5.10) at Galway on Tuesday with a three-year-old handicapper. It emerged after the race that Aurora Princess, who has won two of her nine starts, is rated 79 and was due to run later on the card, finished first past the post when it should have been the debutante Alizarine running in the race. Aurora Princess came home strongly under Shane Foley to beat the Aidan O'Brien-trained 5-4 favourite Twinkle. However, no 'winner all right' was announced before the official disqualification, as the identification query was raised after the microchip of the winner was scanned as she left the parade ring, prompting the IHRB veterinary team to object to the result. Aurora Princess passed the post in front in the 7f maiden, but should have contested a handicap later on the card. Dr Lynn Hillyer, chief veterinary officer with the IHRB, said of the sequence of events: "The horses are scanned before the winner alright is called. So they are scanned and identified as they come in to the racecourse, and then the winner is scanned as they come out of the parade ring." Hillyer declined to elaborate further when asked if the IHRB would review its procedures, which don't cater for horses' microchips to be scanned again following their arrival at the track and before they race. After the disqualification was announced, Aurora Princess was declared a non-runner later on the card, with confirmation of the disqualification announced at 5.58pm. |
