Last year two meetings on a Monday happened now and again, but the fixture list this winter has two cards right through to the start of the flat turf season. Yuck!
Looks like I will be having more days off this year, or more time to work on new strategies.
Two card Mondays
i find it hard getting a decent "rhythm" going with 2 cards. i dont like mondays or tuesdays, so no great loss for me as days these i rarely do mondays. cant be asked with just 2 cards.

i agree that they are dull but i find that the price action hots up quicker on 2 card days and so i generally get involved a bit earlier than i would do on a 3+ day (which has made them as profitable as 3 card days so can't complain).

Yeah the extra meetings have made it like a 'normal' day but the number of 2 race meeting days in the uk must be well up this year.
Found it pretty poor today tbh.

Guessing it happened because of a non runner and they brought in a reserve horse?
Not sure if the help desk calls are recorded, the bet placement ones will be though. So there is a chance the call was never recorded if you called the help desk though that is just me guessing.
I always record such calls myself tbh with whoever I am dealing with be it banks, betfair or anyone else where a record of the call is useful. Not that this is much use to you here but may help you in the future.
I would be surprised if you will get anything other than a goodwill payment out of this case though tbh.
