They do seem to be penny pinching these days from what I've noticed. I recently had to go thru the useless cust services cos of a race they cocked up a few weeks ago. Eventually got one of their goodwill payments for a few hundred credited to my account and come the following Wednesday they'd even treated it as winnings and taken 40% back from it :x . In the past they've never done things like that and I've had a few of their goodwill payments when they've cocked thing up

Yeah, I've an account manager since they started with that. Haven't spoken to him in years though.
I think they cut back on those too!

I'm 49% thru my second target on the current cash race, have they lowered the limits or something I never usually hit the first one let alone the second with 12 days left.
I thought the same, I was pleasantly surprised when I opted in (think Im at 77% of the second target), all helps doesn't it

it seems to me that actual bf points and cash race points are not the same. The calculations are different. And not clear if they include weekly decays in them. by the look of it cash race points are more favorable for us.

Seeing complaints that Betfair has adjusted the points total down. Worth checking if you have been affected.

I'm sure I looked yesterday and was 81% at the start of the day, now down to 75% but tbh my first prize is only £91 so not worth worrying about.

I don't think Sunday night's points depreciation has been applied to my cash race total, but I'm sure it was last time. I'm only 42 points away from my first target so there's no chance of achieving target 2; I'll only get to see what it will be.

Well done Welshboy. I've just hit my first target and with two-and-a-half days to go, it's only 58% of my second target!

You'd think they could be a bit more lenient.

I'm banned from participating so if you pay any PC just churn to hit your target, it's free money.

Does anyone know what time it was paid, they shut the page so you never know if you won or not with it. I was around 95% going into the last day and not going to search thru thousands of entries to check as it was only the first amount.
