Skybet at odds with their own website

[Abbo]

Absolute disgrace this, my pts Khan bet (which includes tech decision) has been settled as a loser.

I'm definately going to cause maximum fuss on this, as despite their own fight report on THEIR WEBSITE stating:

"The judges thought so too, the cards returning a 50-45, 50-45, 50-44 verdict - one scoring round one 10-8. It will go down as a technical decision in the book"

So how can they have the sheer neck not to pay out?? Nothing to do with being the stand out price I hope....

It stinks, and I'd love to hear Dale Tempest's opinion on it.

I've spoken to the Racing Post team, and they are going to look into it.

I bet Khan to win between rounds 1-12 with them at 15/8 yesterday and the dough was there this morning so they seem to deem it a stoppag win

If you don't get anyware with them complain to the gambling commision about it http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/Cl ... tentId=251

I don't use bookies anymore theya re always trying to pull a fast one, I now use the Betting exchanges instead at least you know you will get paid .

Yep I had Khan to win in any rounds 4-9 at Bet365 and they haven't paid out either - bad form I'm going to complain too

[WestEndRiot]

I took rounds 4-6 with Ladbrokes and was paid up straight away

Betfair aren't much better, some of their rulings cause a lot of trouble, there was utter carnage after a formula 1 race last season due to a badly written market rule.

you still have to carefully read the rules but they don't change them after the event to get out of paying you like the bookies do.

Thanks for the tip, I put it to the gambling comission, and Bet365 just paid out on my Khan bet, after trying to get out on a technicality a few weeks back.

I Queried mine with ladbrokes as i had Macklin Ko / Khan points double for 50quid
they came back saying it was classed as stoppage and i wasnt due anything

The says that was officail decision of the fight was tech k/o and i wasnt due anything.
it does say in there rules that 12 rounds must be complete for points bets / though it also says that the Orginazations decision is the final one - which it went to score cards.

Absolute disgrace this, my pts Khan bet (which includes tech decision) has been settled as a loser.
