JTB had loads of county players missing for the league, Towers aren't great.

Lads, advice please.  Done 3 teams to win three county championships as a treble before a ball was kicked in any of the championships. All three teams won, but I didnt put the initial odds on the docket. Went today for a payout and the bookie is only giving me the odds the teams were before they played there county finals? Surely id be entitled to the odds before the championship started?

He's ripping you off. Should be paid as the SP before it started. Sure he has a digital record of it. Hood

It was only a young lad in the shop earlier so I didn't take the payout and took my docket back. Want to see a manager on Monday but just wanted to see have I a leg to stand on.

Definitely ripped off. Who was the bookie, name and shame.

Maybe leave it until Monday. I'd be suprised if the manager doesn't  rectify the error.

The bookie is wrong.

But at the same time... I'm not sure how you and he/she will agree on a final price. They might possibly  keep a record of every price change in every event, and be able to trace it back to the point in time you placed the bet....but I really wouldn't think so.

The same manager will have tracked that bet, they are chancers and will always try and rip you off.

My young brother a while back had a bet paying over a grand, but I noticed on the bet he had spelt one of the horses wrong, I checked the papers that day and there was a similar named horse, but not spelt anything near what was on the docket.

They tried first to not pay out and then say that horse was void, I went with him, took docent back off him and went to the manager and got into a 'debate' about it..

He knew we where right but said they had to chance their arm.

There should be a date stamped on it to show that it was done before the championship began. You're being fleeced.

Its date stamped, I rushed to the bookies on a Friday afternoon to get the bet placed cause the Armagh championship was started that evening. The odds the teams were on that Friday the payout is just over 2100, they were paying me 450 today.

Great win, but pretty stupid not to write down the price so as to give them the chance to fleece you. No excuse.

Head office will do their very best to rob you, so you'll be relying on the local manager to be decent.

Unless they're a tiny outfit, they will definitely have a record of the prices at the time the bets were placed, so they *should* pay the full amount, but bookies are bookies....

As an aside, down south if you win over EUR 2k, you need to provide photo ID and proof of address to get paid. Not sure what the UK rules are.

Don't be afraid to give them a bit of slating on Social Media on how you are getting treated it may encourage them to do the decent thing.
