Likewise - I have screen grabs showing it was set to take sp and did all i could to make sure it was not matched before they suspended - a fellow trader was not so lucky - had it set to take sp but got matched about 10 seconds after the off and as such had his lay voided.

He lost £500 :(

I have been told by a fellow trader that his bets on the 3pm have settled some time ago but mine have not still. Anyone else?

My take SP bet has now vanished but confident it will reappear as an SP bet - I called them and have it on tape saying my bets was still there as an SP bet, plus all the screen grabs so confident I will get my money back.

Sorry to hear about your loss Jimrobo!

What I don't get is why they can't rewind the market to the position it was in at the off.

Why should someone who has put a closing in trade that is set to take SP but punished because BF didn't suspend the market at the off and which allowed the bet to be matched after the off and thus be voided.

One of the guys has a void bet noticed from the 15:00 but still not settled.

Betfair have settled both ways for me in the past. Sometimes as an SP sometimes not. It seems very random. Even when I can prove it was turned to an SP bet before the off, they have still not settled as such. Good luck!

Have you ever tried to challenge on of the cases they didn't?

I would be happy to go to IBAS if they don't settle it.

Thought the same issue was back with the 15.45 - seemed to take an age to go inplay.
