i put a wee bet on the virtual horses today. 5.09 race. horse came in 1st at 7/1.
i went up to get my winnings only for them to say its void because i had missed it by 14 seconds.

now it was only a £2 bet, if it had lost they are not going to shout me over to give it back to me. they said this is how it works with virtual racing! is this right?

goign for draw in tonights game!

Yes, this is right, the reason being that, believe it or not, a group of fraudsters in the Edinburgh area have discovered a system whereby with virtual races, they can narrow the field down to 2 horses, just by watching the break. Due to the fact that many horses win at high prices, these people are staking large amounts, and "winning" large amounts. They have been offering staff large tips to get them to pay out.

Because of this no-one will be paid out on a virtual race if the bet is even a second late, as if the group of fraudsters see a smaller stakes punter being paid out, they will argue about themselves deserving a pay out. Oh and by the way, its your responsibility to get a bet on in time, not the staffs, try coming up to the counter quicker.



Void my arse. If they took the bet, then they should payout. tell them you want to speak to the area manager or your money back. End of

Nonsense. If you name a dog, and put it on after the race, the cashier will assume it is for a horse as very few people name dogs, they will accept the bet, but it wont be paid out as it's been done after the race. A lot of working in a bookies comes down to discretion, in this case it didn't there is just no way of paying out late virtuals. On top of this, he would have got his money (stake back)

It is the customers job to get the bet on on time.

By placing the bet they agree to the T&Cs of the shop, so have no leg to stand on.

The point is that staff should not accept a bet for a race that has started, if the bet will be voided due to it being placed late.

There is usually some leeway allowed in longer races, but the staff should know the company's own rules and, if a late bet on fantasy racing will always be voided, they should not accept the bet.

Wow i never new about the fraudsters, so that probably explains why bets will be void or not taken when a virtual race has went off.
I did get my money back i just didnt understand why they would put the bet through when they know its went off and it would therefor be void.
Plus the 14 second i missed it by could be also blamed on the guy that took the slip being distracted by someone else.
