It strikes me that Betfair are trying to come the 'We're the only show in town so take it or leave it!' attitude.

Some years ago, that may have been the case and we would have had to put up with it. But surely not now?

I've had a few runs in with them over their 'live' video feeds. I always get the same answer, that is, the feeds are provided by a third party, we can't be held responsible, etc, blah, blah, blah.....

Given that, in effect, they charge us a Fiver to use their feeds (I know, we can offset the bet and cancel it out) I regard their attitude as pretty Cavalier. I reckon that now they have 'merged' with Paddy Power, things will only get steadily worse.......

Looks like it may be time to search out pastures new in the Exchnage field........ :|

What's an Exchnage? Whoops, that should be 'Exchange!.'

I managed to escape intact.

Interesting to see very few people seemed to pick up on it. Only a handful of people reporting it to Betfair.
